Why We Don't Stone Sabbath Breakers | The Death Penalty in Torah | Capital punishment in Mosaic Law

In this week’s Parashah Point on the Torah Portion Massei, we see in Numbers 35:16-18 that God instituted the death penalty in some circumstances. Contrary to the Pope Francis’ declaration, the capital punishment is not against the Creator’s moral standard.

In this video series we want to look at the most common things asked and publicly begin answering your questions for the benefit of everyone to hear and to test themselves. In this presentation we are going to respond to the questions: - Should we not use indoor bathrooms according to Deuteronomy 23:13? - Should Gentiles keep the feasts when the believers in Ephesus didn't go with Paul in Acts 18:21? - Why should we read the Torah Portion schedule when it's just another manmade tradition and not from the Father? - If our bodies are the Temple of the Holy Spirit like 2 Corinthians 6 and 7 say, then how can we say some laws don't apply today because there is no temple? - If there is no death on the new earth (Revelation 21:4), then how would animal sacrifices work in eternity? - How do we honor our parents when the relationship is toxic? - Is it okay to attend or participate in sporting events and other extracurriculars if they take place on the Sabbath?

Paul wrote that believers are not 'under the law.' This teaching explains that the phrase refers to being under the law’s penalty, not to obedience itself. Those who trust Messiah are under grace but still uphold God’s law.

This teaching examines Hebrews 8:13 and the claim that the Mosaic covenant is obsolete. It explores the context and explains that the 'old covenant' refers to the Levitical priesthood, not the Torah.
