Kehilat Hamashiah

In our Back to Basics series from Hebrews 5:11-6:2 we are seeking to understand how mature, Kingdom-focused living in Yeshua requires fully training our senses with the elementary principles—the "milk"—of Messiah. Last week, we completed our exploration of the first principle: Repentance from Dead Works. We learned that it is an active turning away from the futile attempt to justify ourselves, replacing dead actions with good works. Today, we move to the necessary partner of that repentance: Faith towards Adonai. Biblical faith is not merely an intellectual agreement to a set of theological facts. It is a firm, active, and steadfast attachment —fundamentally present in all human beings - which finds its only true and secure expression in the God of Israel and His Messiah.

In the sanctuary of God's presence, the honest lament of the grieving is met, not with simple explanations for suffering, but with the sustaining reality that God is with us.
