As I was perusing Twitter this afternoon, I came across a strange thing. I saw two videos, just one tweet apart, in which two mainstream, respected, and successful Christian teachers were discussing the relevance of the Old Testament (OT) to modern Christians. What made it strange was that the two teachers, Andy Stanley and Priscilla […]
In a recent interview with Danica Patrick, Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers discussed his Christian upbringing and how he began to question his faith. The interview has generated some controversy and negative comments including from Rodgers’ own family and has raised concern in the Christian media, as well, such as here and here. […]
A common claim I hear when engaging with my Torahist friends is the idea that the Torah is for the entire world. There’s a sense in which this is a true statement. But there’s another sense in which this claim is misleading and opens the door for misinterpretation, if not outright heresy. For example, my […]
I like Rabbi Tovia Singer. He’s a winsome, intelligent, and charming man and a fabulous teacher. As my Jewish friends would say, he’s a mensch! I’ve not met him in person (yet), but I’ve watched a lot of his teachings online. One thing I love about his style is how he focuses his arguments like […]

The article starts with a discussion about replacement theology (also known as supersessionism), […]

Up until Christ came, the Jewish sages and rabbis roundly agreed that Isaiah 53 was a prophecy about the Messiah. But once the Christian Gospel started to spread, this chapter in […]
I had a delightful conversation with Dr. Julian Charles of The Mind Renewed podcast, out of the UK. We discussed theology, doctrine, Torahism, heresy, history, and more. You can listen at the link below. Or look for it on your favorite podcast channel. And check out his other episodes, too. Great stuff!
In a recent spirited debate with a Jewish friend, he said this: Dear Rob, you have been fed a pack of lies. I could list them all, but I’ll just start with your statement that Jesus is foretold in the Tanakh in many places. That, sir, is only if you mistranslate, misunderstand, misconstrue, or take […]
