Blessings on you from the Elliott family! Thank you for subscribing, and we hope you enjoy today’s newsletter. Good morning! The Name of our Creator is a topic that we could (and should!) meditate on all day long, pondering how He is, He was, He will be. Can we
even fathom how much His existence gives us peace in a world of change? My goal is to bring a little bit of Scripture, a sprinkle of encouragement, and a dash of hope to your day. I love a good cup of coffee (brewed like this), but if some other drink is more your style, I'm sure that will work. The point is for you to take a break from crazy living, just long enough for a sip of
joy.
Daily Bible Verse"I AM THAT I AM.
This is My name forever, and this is My
memorial to all generations."
(Exodus 3:14-15)
Yehovah—Eternally Existent One; a being verb, meaning that He is, He was, He will be, He exists. Source
Here we are starting a study of one of my favorite passages of Scripture—Psalm 8. I memorized this chapter when I was in 3rd or 4th grade, at our little Christian school. For a whole
month, my class recited this verse in unison, but then, to keep things interesting, our teacher offered a giant candy bar to the first student who could say it by memory. Nope… I didn’t win! But I still remember it! 🙂 Continue Reading
Discover the unique way Torah proclaims Messiah using Scripture's varied teaching tools, following the annual and triennial Torah cycle throughout the year. If God has declared the end from the beginning, then He has declared Messiah, the Gospel of grace, the new birth, and the free gift of eternal life from the very first chapters of the Bible. In
fact, all of Torah declares Messiah, and points to Him. Find out how! |
You have surely noticed that throughout my blog, I use the letters “YHVH” to refer to the Creator of the Universe, our Heavenly Father. His name in Hebrew is spelled יהוה. A very accurate
pronunciation is “Ye-ho-VAH.” Read More
Foundations 1: Preparation for Christ examines the Old Testament, preparing your children for the coming of the Messiah by presenting them with a clear picture of God’s nature and character, as well as the nature and character of sinful mankind. They will learn about the necessity of the Law and about God’s plan to provide a Savior from sin.
They will have a clear understanding of the place of Israel in God’s plan. The goal is to lay a firm foundation in their lives for understanding Messiah as presented in the New Testament. Learn More |
In our curriculum, we teach that idolatry is the worship of any created thing in place of YHVH. In its purest sense, idolatry includes any deviation from worship commanded in Scripture.
Therefore, we do not practice or promote overtly Satanic, Wiccan, or pagan festival days in this curriculum (Spring and Fall equinoxes, Winter and Summer Solstices, Christmas, Easter, Sunday, Halloween, etc.). We try to avoid images and religious icons which play a part in the worship of false gods. However, especially in our history curriculum, we may mention these practices in the context of Scripture so
that our children are aware of them. It is a fine line between teaching about idolatry and teaching idolatry. The topic of idolatry is especially controversial when it comes to the use of the names of pagan idols in place of the name of our Creator. We would like to explain why we continue to use certain English names referring to YHVH in our curriculum. Read More |
