What Is the Good News? | Part 12

The English noun gospel comes from the Anglo-Saxon term godspell, meaning “glad tidings.” It is translated from the Greek evangelion, which means “good message.” Originally, the word was related to news of military triumph. –https://www.gotquestions.org/gospel-good-news.html

While mainstream Christianity has a relatively narrow definition or view of the Good News, e.g., limited to the New Testament and only relating to the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ, a broader, more scriptural perspective exists that is less taught, if taught at all.

Didn’t the prophets Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel, and others preach good news? What was their good news about?

If the Good News is only about the death, burial, and resurrection of Messiah Yeshua, why did He teach and preach about it? What did He say is the Good News?

Is the Good News about the Messiah, or is it of the Messiah?

As is his usual practice, Rabbi Steve Berkson brings a more profound understanding to this topic by allowing scripture to define itself just as he has done in his other teachings.

00:00:00 Opener
00:01:49 1 Corinthians 4:15 – Brought forth through the Good News
00:04:37 This division

00:09:13 1 Corinthians 4:2-5 – Judging vs. judgment
00:13:42 1 Corinthians 4:5 – The heart thinks for itself?
00:19:56 Take every thought captive?
00:25:28 Real leadership is coming
00:30:37 Nobody’s perfect
00:35:02 1 Corinthians 4:6-7 – Rebellious and puffed up?
00:39:02 1 Corinthians 4:8 – You think you’re a king?
00:40:19 1 Corinthians 4:9-14 – You wanna trade places?
00:49:05 1 Corinthians 4:15-16 – Yet, not many fathers

Before watching this episode, we recommend that you watch the teaching, https://youtu.be/BSzpiHOb2Xo.

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:
00:00:00 Intro
00:00:47 Am I Able To Judge Myself Correctly?
00:04:21 What’s This Darkness in Me?
00:08:02 Is it possible that humans were created without the Challenge of Life?
00:11:51 Thought Crimes?
00:18:35 Belief motivates the ‘why’
00:23:28 Slow down and be self-aware
00:37:06 Defining “Judging”
00:39:12 What are the “Secrets of Elohim” (1 Corinthians 4:1)
00:40:40 What has replaced animal sacrifice in today’s walk?
00:41:30 Ear tickling vs. Spirit-led teaching
00:43:19 Acting the fool?
00:46:12 The anointing vs. human nature?
00:47:34 Is this what destroys the dwelling place of Elohim?
