Pentecost 2024 – Kings and Priests
May 19, 2024 • Arthur Bailey
YeHoVaH’s initial plan as revealed in Exodus 19:6, was for the Children of Israel, and those who joined themselves with them, to become YeHoVaH's Kingdom of Priests. They were to be the people who acknowledged Him as their King, and like Priests, were to be wholly consecrated to His service. According to Revelation 1:6, Messiah Yeshua “has made us kings and priests unto God and his Father”. How do we as followers of The Messiah become the kings and priests we are destined to be?
Manifesting The Gift Of Healing Part 1 of 7
May 17, 2024 • Arthur Bailey
Spiritual Gifts are vital for the Believer. You cannot successfully operate or navigate in the Spirit realm, or live out your spiritual life, with any degree of success without Spiritual Gifts. You cannot fight the good fight of faith without Spiritual Gifts. We receive power when the Holy Spirit comes upon us. The power to heal is given to all who believe. We have the same Holy Spirit the Disciples and the Apostles had; the same Holy Spirit that was present throughout the Book of Acts.
The House of God
May 16, 2024 • Arthur Bailey • Deuteronomy 12
When YeHoVaH spoke His initial Words to the Children of Israel, He made it clear they were “not to have any gods before Him and not to make unto themselves graven images, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth”. YeHoVaH commanded Moses to instruct Israel to make sure when they entered the Land, they were to destroy all images, stones, and high places of worship. There was to be only one place of worship in the Land and that would be where YeHoVaH would place His Name.
Lessons Learned from Israel’s History
May 11, 2024 • Arthur Bailey • 1 Corinthians 10
According to Acts 18:11, Paul spent a year and a half in Corinth “teaching them the Word of God”. At that time there were no New Testament writings. Therefore Paul taught from the Law, the Prophets, and the Historical Writings of the Tanakh/Old Testament. In this portion of Paul’s letter, he focused on the lessons the Corinthians should learn from Israel’s history and how to apply those lessons in their lives and in ours.
Now Concerning Spiritual Gifts Part 6 of 6
May 10, 2024 • Arthur Bailey
Many suggest that the Gifts of the Spirit have ceased to be in operation, just as they also insist that the Law is “done away with”. Many of us have to be deprogrammed from the misinformation we have learned about Spiritual Gifts through religious teachings, as well as not seeing the Spiritual Gifts manifested. Deprogramming is what the Bible calls the renewing of the mind. In this series, Arthur Bailey takes the mystery out of manifesting Spiritual Gifts, empowers Believers with the truth that is relevant in today’s times, and discusses how to properly use Spiritual tools.
Blessings or Curses?
May 9, 2024 • Arthur Bailey • Deuteronomy 11
YeHoVaH’s promise to Abraham was on the verge of being completed as Israel was being prepared by Moses to enter and take possession of the Promised Land. YeHoVaH’s plan from day one was to bless Israel as they came out of Egypt laden with jewels of silver and gold to go into a land flowing with milk and honey. Israel had to make a choice of whether they would live in peace and blessings with YeHoVaH in their midst or in turmoil and curses as a result of not obeying YeHoVaH’s Commandments.
Was Paul an Apostle?
May 4, 2024 • Arthur Bailey • 1 Corinthians 9
Paul’s second letter to the Corinthian assembly, referred to as 1st Corinthians by theologians, was a response to concerns and questions the Brethren had dealing with issues they were experiencing as a newly formed community. Apparently, Paul’s Apostleship was being challenged or called into question by some in the community whereby Paul attempts to bring clarification or justification to his calling as an Apostle in order to put the matter to rest.

A Circumcised Heart
May 2, 2024 • Arthur Bailey • Deuteronomy 10
Modern day followers of Jesus Christ boldly declare they are not under the Law but are under grace. They are quick to proclaim that their God no longer requires a circumcision in the flesh, only a circumcision of the heart. Although they are unable to clarify what that actually means, they are equally ignorant of the fact that the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, also required a circumcision of the heart from those who were partakers of the Covenant with Abraham, the father of our faith.
The Day of The Passover
May 1, 2024 • Arthur Bailey • Mark 15:1–32
The night before the Passover, Yeshua was arrested and tried by the High Priest, Chief Priests, Elders, and Torah teachers where a series of prophetic events occurred. Unaware that they were fulfilling prophecy, the Sanhedrin reached a unanimous decision, bound Yeshua, and turned Him over to the Gentiles to be judged on the day of the Passover where Yeshua would accomplish the greatest victory for all mankind in the history of the world.
Food and Idols
April 27, 2024 • Arthur Bailey • 1 Corinthians 8
The opening phrases of YeHoVaH’s communication to the newly formed Nation of Israel, via the first six verses of the Ten Commandments, dealt with the issues of other gods, graven images, and idol worship. Millenniums later, Paul is asked about the issue of eating meat sacrificed to idols and how the newly formed Corinthian community in Yeshua should respond to prevailing idolatry in the Greek city of Corinth.

Marriage: A Life Sentence
April 20, 2024 • Arthur Bailey • 1 Corinthians 7
The Corinthian Believers had written to Paul about a series of issues pertaining to marriage and other subject matters they needed instructions on how to handle amongst the Saints within the Assembly. Paul goes into some detail in his response to them from both his own position on the subject of marriage and what is commanded by Yeshua based on what is commanded in the Law. Paul concludes that marriage is a life sentence.
