We recommend watching the full teaching, https://youtu.be/nAKwFDI7eRk, before watching this episode.

Afterburn: also known in the fitness world as the “afterburn effect.” Simply put, the more intense the exercise, the more oxygen your body consumes afterward.

This effect could occur spiritually after Rabbi Berkson’s intense teachings each week. This Afterburn Q&A session allows your mind and soul to consume more understanding (oxygen).

Some of the topics covered are:
00:00 Intro
00:22 The text is clear!
02:31 He was asking for a “get out of jail free” card
03:51 Why isn’t circumcision a choice?
07:25 Did Steven have a vision as he was being stoned?
11:08 If you are in an adversarial relationship with someone…
13:58 Acts 7:43 – Is the Star of David a pagan symbol?
19:07 Elohim’s Cloud Storage?
22:38 Acts 8:16 – Is the “he” the Ruach?
24:09 Acts 8:32-33 to quiet the voices/noises in our head?
26:14 Life is like a pinball machine?
28:38 Elder Jackson speaks from his heart
45:02 “I have found life through this ministry”
