Rabbi Steve Berkson would like to introduce Mr. William Jackson to the MTOI family. Among his many abilities and talents Mr. Jackson assists Rabbi Berkson in the administrative tasks, sings in the Praise Team, and is an accomplished speaker and teacher.In the Gospel of John chapter 15 Messiah Yeshua gave His disciples some final instructions before His execution/crucifixion by the occupying Romans, in which He told them emphatically, “Stay in Me”, because they could do nothing of themselves. (John 15:4)What does it mean to “stay in” Messiah? How do we stay connected to Him? Why is it so hard to stay in Him? Why is it so important to stay in Him?To connect the concept of “Stay in Me” Mr. Jackson takes us to Matthew chapter 25 and expounds on the two parables Messiah taught there – the Ten Virgins and their lamps and oil, and the man who gave his servants of his possessions to invest while he was on a trip. Mr. Jackson brings out understanding about these parables that few have heard before.You will be encouraged and strengthened as you listen to this powerful teaching.Scriptures used in this teaching:• John 15:1-7• Matthew 25:1-30Related Teachings can be found here:• Well Done, Good and Trustworthy Servant https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLf9HOA0P9oX-M88aqIdeb7mT2kxEK2kNz• The Millennium & The Kingdom https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLf9HOA0P9oX9UNbkpvbCaWQXijbyGCLVKDon't miss out on new teachings every week.

Love and Torah – what’s love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor.Continuing our journey into the second of the Two Great Commands, ‘love your neighbor’, Rabbi Steve Berkson takes us to Luke 6:20 where he shows us the event called the Sermon on the Mount. Messiah is teaching to His disciples, giving contrasts to life in this world (the below) and life in the heavens (the above).• Do you feel blessed when others are treating you badly because of your faith in Messiah?• Are you able to look ahead to the joy that is coming? Can you practice delayed gratification?• How can it be a bad thing when people speak well of you? What people?• How is it possible to love your enemy as Messiah taught us to? Were you ever an “enemy of Elohim”? Didn’t He love you when you were in that state?Rabbi Berkson once again dissects the words in these passages so that you will have a deeper understanding of what Yah expects of you, so that you can do it and receive the blessings.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Love and Torah – what’s love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor.Beginning this teaching in John 15:5, Rabbi Steve Berkson explains what Messiah Yeshua meant when He was exhorting His disciples to “stay in Me and He in them”, and how that statement could also be said as, “if you are in covenant with Me.” Without the Spirit of Messiah (His intrinsic nature) in us it is impossible to be in covenant with Him and His Father.• What is Covenantal Fruit?Moving on from there Rabbi Berkson expounds on something crucial to our having a correct mindset when dealing with those around us and it centers around the phrase “he is broken off and thrown away.” This moves him into passages in Matthew chapter 13 and Romans 11 which were not in his notes.• What is the job for the Kingdom that is above all of our ‘pay grades’?• Is your being considered a “darnel” or a “tare” predestined?• Do you have a preconception of what leadership should look like or sound like? What’s the danger in that?Rabbi Berkson does a “reset” of a ‘faith idea’ that most of us have been taught throughout our lives, namely the idea of “ask whatever you wish and it shall be done for you.” What is the awful word that precedes Messiah’s statement about ‘asking’?Toward the end of the teaching, what started as a side note became an illustrious life-coaching moment as Rabbi Berkson was speaking about be unequally yoked and then turned his focus to those who are single and looking for a mate. A must-watch!Rabbi Berkson once again dissects the words in these passages so that you will have a deeper understanding of what Yah expects of you, so that you can do it and receive the blessings.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Love and Torah – what’s love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor.There’s a lot of discussion out there between the different groups who claim to believe in the Creator and His Messiah, but have completely different perspectives from their belief. Almost all of the groups believe it is all about love, so the question becomes what does that look like? What is the action to be taken? In this teaching series, Love & Torah, Rabbi Steve Berkson brings clarity from the Scripture the answer to that question.Now that we’ve finished going through Psalm 119 where the focus is on the concept of loving Elohim, Rabbi Berkson now starts explaining the concept of loving each other. The Gospel of John chapter 15 provides a great place begin this journey as we see Messiah Yeshua is teaching His disciples using some agricultural metaphors to get His message into their hearts about the relationship He expects.• What is the “gap” between the Gardener and the Vine?• What is pruning? How does it apply to you?• If Messiah Yeshua referred to Himself as the “True Vine”, could there be false vines?• Why did Messiah Yeshua say, “Stay in Me…”?• Why is the verse (15:3) about being clean because of the Word in there?• What is a direct-download from the Ruach?• Do you need to pray before doing anything?• What is “Vertical Awareness”?Rabbi Berkson once again dissects the words in these passages so that you will have a deeper understanding of what Yah expects of you, so that you can do it and receive the blessings.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Love and Torah – what’s love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor.Continuing in Psalm 119 beginning in verse 159 Rabbi Steve Berkson exposes a ‘truth’ in what King David has been writing over and over pleading with Elohim that He would “revive” him because he “loves” the commandments of Elohim. Do you need to be revived? Romans 10:4 says in some translations that “Messiah is the end of the Law for righteousness…”, but does this mean the termination of the Law? Or does the word we read as “end” have a different meaning?Does forever really mean forever? Rabbi Berkson has a problem with the idea of forever as he explains…There are things that happen in your everyday life to prove the Brit Hadasha (New Testament) is true. Do you know what they are?As you take the steps to become like Messiah Yeshua, what is the strongest influence in your life?Rabbi Berkson once again dissects the words in these passages so that you will have a deeper understanding of what Yah expects of you, so that you can do it and receive the blessings.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Love and Torah – what’s love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor.This teaching continues in Psalm 119, verse 150 where Rabbi Steve Berkson expounds on “Those who pursue mischief…” as those who have a different agenda than Yahweh, and are far from His Torah. These are those who lack an intimate relationship with The Creator. These draw near with their lips, but their heart is far from Him. They do what is right in their own eyes.Is there a difference between ‘mercy’ and ‘grace/favor’? Rabbi Berkson touches on this topic so that there’s a clear understanding.King David the psalmist wrote about those who “have not sought Your Laws.”, and called them “the wrong ones”. Do you seek His Laws?Lashon Hara is Hebrew for ‘evil tongue’. Many people are familiar with this term, but are confused as to what it actually means. Rabbi Berkson unpacks the meaning of this term and how it can affect your life and the life of those around you.This teaching contains some of the best life-coaching to be found as Rabbi Berkson wonderfully delves into the intricate world of human relationships – dating, marriage and raising children. He points out relationship attributes such as ‘default expectancy’ and ‘understood expectancy’. Do you know what these attributes are and how they may affect you?Rabbi Berkson once again dissects the words in these passages so that you will have a deeper understanding of what Yah expects of you, so that you can do it and receive the blessings.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Love and Torah – what’s love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor.Focusing on how our hearts and minds should be towards our Creator and His Torah, Rabbi Steve Berkson continues in our journey through the writings of King David in Psalm 119. Rabbi Berkson picks up at verse 145 pointing out how throughout this psalm King David has made the connection between petitioning The Almighty, and expressing why He should grant it and why the petitioner wants it. As Rabbi Berkson questions that as all of us have called out to The Almighty, “Answer me” – can we say with honesty and integrity, “I observe Your laws”?The Almighty created you to, at first, receive from Him. Then, as we have believed in His Son, Messiah Yeshua, and walk the path of righteousness, we become a ‘new creature’ that rises from the “Below”, the elementary things of this earth, to the “Above”, the things of Heaven. This ‘new creature’ learns to become a ‘giver’ as is The Almighty.What does both Jews and Christians agree on?What is it that Yahweh wants from you?Rabbi Berkson once again dissects the words in these passages so that you will have a deeper understanding of what Yah expects of you, so that you can do it and receive the blessings.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Love and Torah – what’s love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor.Moving forward in Psalm 119, Rabbi Steve Berkson has a few questions for us;When you see people not guarding the Torah, what is your reaction? (Psalm 119:136)What if you never got to see what happens to those who don’t listen to Elohim? (Psalm 119:138)How has Christianity confused us regarding “salvation”?Why did Elohim allow all that horrible stuff to happen to Job?Why do you want eternal life? Are you trustworthy with it?

Love and Torah – what’s love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor.No one understood the connection of Love and Torah better than King David. He was referred to by Yahweh as the man after Yahweh’s own heart. As we continue going through Psalm 119 we see him talking about his love for Torah, how much he values and cherishes the commandments of Yahweh.What did King David mean when he wrote, “Your witnesses are wonders…”?If you are in covenant with Yah, how could wickedness have rule over you?Jeremiah 31:31 – The Covenant – new or renewed?How are you like a teenager to Yahweh?Rabbi Berkson once again dissects the words in these passages so that you will have a deeper understanding of what Yah expects of you, so that you can do it and receive the blessings.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Love and Torah – what’s love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor.As we continue to look at King David, the man after Yahweh’s own heart, and his writings starting in Psalm 119:126, Rabbi Steve Berkson teaches us verse by verse to understand the emotions and thoughts King David experienced to cause him to write them down. As we understand, we can apply these emotions and thoughts to our lives. After all, it’s through our experiences that Yahweh ‘makes us to understand.’Every organization, corporation, state, country, etc. has a vertical structure with someone or something at the top and those under who are subject to the level above and responsible for those who are under. The Kingdom of Messiah has the same kind of vertical structure. This is necessary for the smooth and functional operation of the forward movement of the Kingdom. This vertical Kingdom structure is in place right now and everyone within the structure should know and understand their function.Rabbi Berkson once again dissects the words in these passages so that you will have a deeper understanding of what Yah expects of you, so that you can do it and receive the blessings.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Love and Torah – what’s love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor.This episode from the beginning of Sukkot starts with Rabbi Steve Berkson taking us to the passage in the Gospel of John, chapter 7, where we see Yeshua Messiah standing up at the day called Shemini Atzerat which finishes the feast, declaring Himself to be the Waters of Life. Rabbi Berkson points out that Messiah said “Anyone who thirsts…” – but does everyone get to drink?From there Rabbi Berkson takes us to John 4:5-15, the story of the woman at the well, where Messiah Yeshua offered Living Water to her and also declared to her, one of only two people, that He was the Messiah. Rabbi Berkson points out the time of day this happened from which he brings a “deeper understanding” as to what the time of day had to do with the story which was the sixth hour of the day. What could be the “hour of man”?From there we go back to Psalm 119, but before he gets into that Rabbi Berkson gives instruction and encouragement in regards to studying the Word. It matters not how you do it – just do it, the way you do it.Then going into Psalm 119 starting in verse 114, Rabbi Berkson reminds us the purpose of taking this psalm verse-by-verse is that you would place yourself in the shoes of King David. You should feel what he felt through the words he wrote. Then you should apply the same love for Torah and place the same value and importance to your walk as he did.Who are the “evil-doers”? How does the Scripture define evil? Rabbi Berkson shows us plainly. Who or what are the “witnesses”? Rabbi Berkson expounds how these impact our lives.Rabbi Berkson once again dissects the words in these passages so that you will have a deeper understanding of what Yah expects of you, so that you can do it and receive the blessings.Related Teachings can be found here:• Understanding the Ruach/Spirit https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLf9HOA0P9oX_0Mi7M6VeNIqg8eu1f_QBm• INfocus: Emunah https://youtu.be/UxxiMAbTEwA• Let Me Not Be Ashamed https://www.podomatic.com/podcasts/steveberkson/episodes/2012-08-25T17_59_32-07_00• INfocus: Put the Mic Down! https://youtu.be/QTH6Vc2ssqQ• INfocus: Messi-Mutt https://youtu.be/pL4EeaQbOKk• INfocus: Do Not Be Called Rabbi https://youtu.be/pL4EeaQbOKk• INfocus: Whac-a-Mole https://youtu.be/uhd-FAhQ8Kg• INfocus: That’s Not Submission https://youtu.be/a73Wn6jCz_E• Are You Listening? https://youtu.be/eLpI3SFHSF4Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor.Continuing in Psalm 119, Rabbi Steve Berkson shows us from the writings of King David the love he had and expressed toward the Law/Torah. As we look at King David’s writings, what becomes apparent is the range of emotions he expresses toward Yahweh and His commandments, statutes and ordinances.

Love and Torah – what’s love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands” – love Yahweh and love your neighbor.In this episode, Rabbi Steve Berkson takes us to the book of Psalms starting in Psalm 11. He points out the contrast between two types of people – those who are called “the wrong”, and “the upright”. Yahweh loves those who pursue righteousness, doing what He has determined is right, and He hates those who know to do right, but don’t.Then moving to Psalm 33, Rabbi Berkson shows us how Yahweh, because of His great love, created everything by the word of His mouth, His Torah. If that was not enough, He takes from His creation a group of humans and calls them His inheritance – those who love Him enough to walk in all of His ways.From there Rabbi Berkson leads us into the 119th Psalm that was written by the man who was called the man after Yah’s own heart. You can see this by the way King David wrote about the Torah of Yah and how he loved it and Him.Rabbi Berkson once again dissects the words in these passages so that you will have a deeper understanding of what Yah expects of you, so that you can do it and receive the blessings.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.

Love and Torah – what’s love got to do with it? This study series is based on the “Two Great Commands”, love Yahweh and love your neighbor.Does Yahweh have a “Love Language”? Continuing the focus on our relationship with Elohim, Rabbi Steve Berkson takes us to Deuteronomy chapter 11 to discover if Yahweh has a “Love Language” and if so, can we know what that is.From there Rabbi Berkson moves us to Deuteronomy chapter 13 to show us that Yahweh warned us about those who through deception could take us away from Him. It is our responsibility to have one who is our anointed/appointed teacher so that we can know the real and not be deceived by the false.Rabbi Berkson once again dissects the words in these passages so that you will have a deeper understanding of what Yah expects of you, so that you can do it and receive the blessings.Don't miss out on new teachings every week.
