Thank you for your comments and for supporting this channel. May God bless you today!

WE do not make ourselves something different, God indwells us and promises to change us from the inside out.

Hebfew instruction is tshuvah which means to turn 180 ddegrees & go in the opposite direction

John 5: 45-46 45 Do not think that I will accuse you to the Father: there is one that accuseth you, even Moses, in whom ye trust. 46 For had ye believed Moses, ye would have believed me; for he wrote of me. 47 But if ye believe not his writings, how shall ye believe my words? Yahshua himself is telling us to follow the words of Moses.

I'm not so sure there is a huge difference between the two concepts of "repent vs convert" honestly. I would also trust that the spriit of God and his intended meaning would flow from him to us regardless. I recently found this channel and have been watching a number of episodes a day and really like your teaching. You've said in a number of episodes I've watched that we need to remember the Jewish understanding of words, thoughts and concepts but, lets not forget that it was the Jewish mind that miss the arrival of "CHRIST" all together. That says something.

You always give food for thought, thank you.

And there is so much more! I understand that seed of abraham ministry follows similar understanding, but the below is for those who are yet, or just beginning, to receive good understanding. And here is Satan's greatest deception, the division of YHWH's people into two incomplete "faiths". If you claim covenant with YHWH, then you ARE part of Israel or under the tent of Jacob. To be in covenant with Him is more than acknowledging His death, burial and resurrection, for "Many" will claim Him as Master, yet He will reject them who work lawlessness (Matt 7:21-23). Iniquity = Lawlessness! Exod 33:13 Now therefore, I pray thee, if I have found favour in thy sight, shew me now thy way, that I may KNOW THEE, that I may find favour in thy sight: and consider that this nation is thy people. 14 And he said, My presence shall go with thee, and I will give thee rest. Hosea 5:4 They will not frame their doings to turn unto their Elohim: for the spirit of whoredoms is in the midst of them, and they have not KNOWN יהוה. The division of the kingdom by YHWH, and the subsequent creation of a "new religion" by the northern House of Israel (Ephraim), is the perfect shadow of christianity and ALL of her derivations. For it was the fear of the people returning to Jerusalem at the feasts of YHWH, etc... which caused the king to create a "new church". I Kings 12:24-33, but really all of the chapter and others. It was always His plan to divorce, disperse, sift and regather the House of Israel (Ephraim, Northern Kingdom, House of Joseph, etc...) through the nations. Back into One (echad) people (Ezek 37). Contrasting His Eternal Truth vs the dogma of religions (ie "papal infallibility", dispensationalism, OSAS, tulip, replacement Th, et al) is something which I would rather rest my soul. It is the undeniable history of "the church" and all that it has done "in the name of god" to not only those *IT* called "heretics", but it's very own people which speaks volumes as to whom we should put our emunah (trust + obedience). The cycle of man's religion vs the Way of YHWH. The Good tree can ONLY bring forth good fruit, yet the corrupt tree can only bring forth evil fruit, no matter what facade it tries to convince you of. I am not posting this to divide, just offering a wider lens to His Word vs the myopic lens of religion. If you have to ignore, sidestep and twist plain concepts: Immutable, unchanging, eternal does not lie or change His mind AS MEN DO Has One means to weigh and measure (judge) and it is eternal and perfect One covenant people Cyclic History Messiah Prophet likened unto Moses, would speak ONLY that which YHWH (I change not) gave Him to speak Torah ("law") of YHWH = Torah of Moses = Torah of Messiah much more... Truth does not require the redefining or creation of words to represent that which has been from the beginning. You will only find the supplanting of the Truth to redefine, redirect and obfuscate. "jesus" for Yeshua/Yahshua/Yahoushua (Salvation/YAH will save) "christ" for Messiah/Annointed "sunday" for THE Sabbath, the Eternal sign for YHWH's covenanted people, to all generations, native born or grafted in "christian" for Messianic, biblical Hebraic "faith" in the promised Hebrew/Jewish Seed/King of Israel (not rabbinic judaism) "church" for Qahal/Ekklesia - THE called out assembly is Israel/Jacob's tent (not the secular nation) "convert[ed]" for Repent or turn (Teshuva) from evil (lawless/sin) and towards YHWH "easter" for Passover/Pesach "pentecost" for Shavuot or YHWH's feast of weeks "baptism" for Immersion / Mikvah ie Yochannan ("john") the Immerser there are more... All are man made wedges to divide. This is the cyclic history of man. Research the history of Judea leading up to the destruction of the Temple in 70 AD and Jerusalem in 135 AD. Learn how the persecution and taxation of Hebrews was the catalyst for the growing Greek influence in causing the wedge of separation to be planted. Also read regarding Epiphanius or any other ante-nicene "church" father and see the visceral hate they had for anything "jewish". Martin Luther was a "jew" loathing "anti-semite". See his own writings, as there is no dearth of information regarding this subject. I do warn that you have to be careful in the sources used, as there are extreme polar opposites that paint as evil or squeaky clean (yet still tainted) an image of Luther as possible. ALL of the apostles and first century Messianic sect of Judaism known as the Way (Acts 9:2; 19:9, 23; 22:4; 24:14, 22) were, until their deaths, Torah pursuing followers of Messiah Yahshua. YHWH has continually rebuilt, restored and renewed through repentance. There is nothing new in the writings of the apostles, only the clarification or complete fulfilling of meaning of how to Love YHWH and your neighbor. Showing us that it is NOT only mechanics of Torah (building habits) required to Love, but to do it from the heart. What is this Re[new]ed covenant, but to circumcise the heart of man, that we would desire to know and abide eternally in His Torah/Love. Deut 10 is a nice (shadow) summation, along with Jer 31, Ezek 36 and Heb 8. Believe and walk as you will, but, as for me and my house, we will serve the Holy One of Israel. The Elohim of Abraham, Issac and Jacob. The Father of THE Messiah Yahshua. Father to ALL natural and adopted covenanted Israel. YHWH bless thee, and keep thee: YHWH make his face shine upon thee, and be gracious unto thee: YHWH lift up his countenance upon thee, and give thee peace. Shabbat shalom

By the grace of the Father, we now live in a time when scholarship allows us to correct many of the errors of our spiritual forebears. Let’s resolve to learn and teach the truth to the next generation.

Love your teachings Mr Bradford. Yirmeyahu (Jeremiah) reminds us in chapter 16 that we have not GUARDED YAH's Torah and have inherited lies and falsehoods.

Yahushua was teaching Torah the right way, which was not being practiced at that time (or before). Therefore Israelites can be grafted back and gentiles (wild branch) can be grafted in. Christianity is a construct initiated by Rome where the teachings of Yahushua are subverted with multiple pagan beliefs to create something new and different. New believers were encouraged to go to synagogs to listen to the teachings and do as they say not as they do but christians are not encouraged to learn torah and therefore not encouraged to obey Yahs instructions (like Yahushua did).🙏

Acts 20:7 the word "Day" was added, The word Week is g4521 sabbaton or Sabbath... And upon the first (_Sabbath__) of the week, when the disciples came together to break bread, Paul preached unto them, ready to depart on the morrow; and continued his speech until midnight.

Didn't get a chance to share this beautiful short clip on the sabbath, sharing today. Blessings Tom... My Truth Social Friends will get to watch.. For the New people here, TOM IS BY FAR THE BEST BIBLE TEACHER EVER, HE TEACHES FROM THE WORD, NOT HIS BUT YAH'S~

This was a game changer for me. Praise Yehovah!

I was a drunken heathen sinner and I believe Acts 2:38 because everyone in Acts was baptized in the name of Jesus including Baptist preachers. Paul was baptized and he baptized people. Jesus instantly delivered me and I mean instantly delivered me. You will know the very second your filled with the Holy Ghost and it's something that cannot be forgotten. People who believe they have the Holy Ghost probably can't tell you when they received it and how they were instantly changed. And yes you can loose your salvation because I know people who did and they died. If you die while living in sin God will judge you severely.

Context is always key, and always helpful to consider other scripture on the same topic. In essence the concept that is being portrayed is; to turn, to change, to be converted, to be renewed. The point that is being made is inline with - put off the old self, crucify the flesh, being born again, conformed, converted, walking in the spirit and not the flesh of the old self, to be transformed by the renewing of your mind - in essence to change from your old ways. Is it fair to say - Anyone who focuses on a single verse is narrow minded?

Amen Teacher Brad, I agree. I have realized this when I read read Soul's confession. "I was born like a Jew, lived like Jew and dyed like a Jew". That moment Holly Spirit confirmed there's no Christianity. Hallelujah, I am not alone who understood. 🙏🥳

I’m so glad to hear from this dude. Last Messianic I tried listening to said you couldn’t be Christian without being Jewish, which Galatians completely contradicts. There’s something a lot more logical in what Mr. Bradford’s ministry speaks here.

That verse means to return to TORAH... so that you're dysfunction would be forgotten. TORAH means teaching and instruction. So simple to understand!!!

It essence it means to Change your way, Christ is the way the truth and the light. And there is no other name by which anyone can be saved. This is ordained by our Heavenly Father. Just as it is written: I will raise up for them a Prophet like you from among their brethren, and will put My words in His mouth, and He shall speak to them all that I command Him. And it shall be that whoever will not hear My words, which He speaks in My name, I will require it of him.

In Hebrew this verse is very simple. (Therefore be comforted and return and destroy your sin) But in KJV became to many words.

This teaching is excellent!!

We are a new creature in Jesus Christ so 'convert' is accurate since we are converting from an illusion into Truth; from darkness to Light. Yes, in may ways and examples, we turn from self; from the proud waters to look upon the face of God in Christ. And, as Jacob became Israel so too, as with Paul, we may be born again.

I have recently run into some people who believe that King James translation is the only translation worthy of reading. And they go further to suggest that Paul was the first Christian. Our Lord and Savior warned us of deception. We should not take this warning lightly.

Turn towards God and away from your sin. (Repent) and become a new creation in God (Born again/Born from above) God was the one sending the Words, it was not men trying to make it understandable to people of the time. It was God giving His Word that shall not pass away, living and powerful and sharper than any two edge sword..Heaven and earth shall pass away but my word shall endure forever..Be careful teachers will be judged more harshly...

John 3:3…. This does sound like being “converted”, “changed”, and being made completely new.

How about 2Peter 3:15-19: Peter tells us that if you don’t have a foundation, you will read Paul’s letters and miss understand him and become lawless (Without Torah).

Sadly, there are so many people who worship the KJV instead of Yahweh.

Good point. "Christianity" is simply Messianic Judaism. Christianity *IS* pure Judaism. Christianity just means "Messiah Follower" since "Christ" is the Greek for "Messiah." Only 2 forms of Judaism survived the fall of the Temple in 70 AD. 1) Rabbinical Judaism (talmud/oral torah) 2) Messianic Judaism (later to be known as Christianity) Jesus, His disciples and his early followers were not called "Christians." They were called "Nazarenes" or sometimes "Followers of The Way," and were just another sect of Judaism. They attended the synagogue like any other sect. The "split" between Messianic Judaism and Orthodox Judaism came much later. Even today, Jews that come to recognize "Him whom they pierced" and turn to Messianic Judaism DO NOT STOP BEING JEWISH. They do not "convert" to Christianity. Even some rabbi's in the past that became "Messianic" continued to preach in the synagogue. In short, what we call "Christianity" today is the only true Judaism there is. There is no "oral torah" anywhere in the Tanakh, and no written record of any "oral torah" until a couple of centuries after the fall of the temple. The New Testament, on the other hand, was written within 70 years of the resurrection, all within the first century. Written BY Jews, ABOUT Jews and Israel, and by eye witnesses. We should have called the New Testament, "The New Covenant: Fulfillment of the Abrahamic Promise," because that is what it is. Also remember that the New Testament is a seamless continuation of the Tanakh, and completely agrees with, affirms and FULFILLS the Tanakh. It's just a continuation of pure Judaism. Yeshua/Jesus clearly stated that he came not to overturn or replace the Tanakh, but to CONFIRM AND FULFILL it. The New and Old Testaments are in complete harmony. If you reject anything in the New Testament, you are rejecting the Old Testament as well. There is no avoiding this fact.

Our adamant heart is meant to be converted to that of flesh. We are to change. Yes, we are to turn from sin, unrighteousness, and death, and turn to God, righteousness and life. We are meant to be dead to what we were and be changed by Christ and live. We are meant to experience a conversion… To abandon falsehood and embrace truth. The only way to God is through his Word, his only begotten son.

I think we can see, it was the Jew's that brought the separation and caused the split, not because of conversion but rather the personal cost of the cross of Christ.

People do not understand how we seamlessly jumped from Hebrew belief with Christ to Christianity to be led off in a different direction. You hit the nail on the head.

An ANGEL in the Acts of the Apostole's .....10th chapter told the first Gentile how to be saved and it was the same message that Paul preached and Peter and all the Christian's

This is what Jesus meant by trying to put the hair of a camel through the eye of a needle. . Because these ones have gone backwards. That is. Out of their own knowledge and wisdom they believe they can open themselves up to understanding scripture. That they do not ascend past the scribes and the pharisee to actually understand it. They instead focus on insignificant details of language, just like Satan did, to try to show themselves studied because of their pride. To be converted. . Or to turn to God. . It's one and the same meaning. . Repent and be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ. . Means turning to God. . Turning to Christ. But the teachers of the law follow the will of Satan to bring confusion into the body, and unto this very day they who are veiled to the scriptures truly believe they have done the works of God rather than what they have actually done. . Worked every minute of their lives for Satan. If they would indeed turn to God, repent. . See themselves. . They wouldn't any longer be veiled to the scriptures. . And they would be capable of seeing their own errors rather than their perceived errors of others. Ever seeing. But never comprehending. Because they loved not the truth God sent them strong delusion so that they believe a lie. So rather than understanding "be converted" and "turn to God" mean exactly the same thing. . God brings them a lie that it differs. . And they believe that lie all the way to their own judgment.

Praise be to HaShem. Yeshua taught that we cannot put new wine in an old wineskin. The teachings of Jesus cannot and must not be mixed with the teachings of Moses or the Rabiis. God bless.

2Cor 5:20 seize "If any man be in Christ he is a new creation old things have passed away behold all things have become new". Not only converted but a total new regenerate person, where their is neither Jew nor Greek bond nor free, male nor female but we are all ONE in Christ! (Gal 3:28-29)! We come with our cultures but we leave our religous distinction behind!! I hope we're not mixing law and grace here (Gal 5:1-6). The book of Hebrews tells Jewish people that the Old was good but the new is better. The New Covenant is in Christ, the Old was tied up in the Temple (religon) and was about to pass away (Heb 8:13). Nothing wrong for Jewish believers and others to enjoy the festivals and hollidays in Christ, but if they somehow become a means of Grace or Sanctification: "Houston we have a Problem!!" (Col 2:16-17).

Didn't Jesus say he was not here to abolish the law. So something is up.

Paul's conversion was a convertsion to Christ, not to the Christian Church body of Christ. Though he understood himself added to the body of Christ by Christ Himself. After the 490 years prophecy in Dan. 9:23-27, had ended in 34AD at the death of Stepeh, in Acts 10, calling out the Sanhedrin and the Jewish nation for their betrayal of Christ at the cross, Jesus continued His work on earth through His churchbody.

But it is always a conversion from unbelief to belief, we must know that God deems sinners to be unbelievers, and they must convert to believers which is to turn to God. Paul converted from his unbelief proven by sin and sacrifice, if you do not believe in God's righteousness, then change your mind then your independence has converted. There is one religion that Paul stayed on, he did not convert from Jew to Christian, he converted from a Jewish unbeliever who sinned, to a Born Again Jew who proved to be z believer as he no longer sinned. I have a Ytube video series 'Myths in so-called Christianity' for NT truth.

Satan infiltrated the Church via Paul. He appointed himself Apostle. He gained nothing via the real Apostles. He was not a follower of our Messiah when our Messiah walked the earth. Rev 21:14 says only 12 Apostles, even to the the time of the end. Acts 1 shows Mattias replaced Judas. There is no 13th Apostle, but that is what Paul would be. There's a lot of evidence that Paul was Satan's counterfeit. See my playlists.

You might humbly consider reading Romans Chapter 1

Sorry Tom, I listened to you for years and appreciate all you do but, I've found that a lot of words have more than 1 meaning but are usually similar. Case in point. Convert- definition # 4. To turn from a bad life to a good one; to change the heart and moral character, from enmity to God and from vicious habits, to love of God and to a holy life. This is Webster's 1828. They are constantly perverting words and so, we have to rely on a dictionary that comes from that day and from people who don't have a hatred of Yahweh. I wish you would stop criticizing the KJV. there is no better English translation period.

For having found this man a troublemaker and an inciter of riots among all the Yehudim throughout kol ha'aretz, a manhig of the kat [of Judaism], the Natzrati Kat. Gevurot (Acts) 24:5

The Jews of that day did not actually speak Hebrew. The religious leaders questioned how Jesus KNEW HIS LETTERS, because it was only the elites that spoke Hebrew. Common folk had translations of the Law and prophets in Aramaic and Greek.

Paul is the fals aposol that john is talking about in revelation Paul who our LORD appeard to to stop Paul from destroying and killing every beleiver and Paul was the one who was roman and with his writing in greek not hebrew could comme throo time to all of us gentile

Convert your Mind to God so simple you have to change or convert your brain to god what's wrong with that. God left his word for us that speak English. To convert to believe in the Lord of glory Jesus Christ God almighty all other bible have been changed to make the bible different so king James Bible is the bible to preach God's word. As if hundreds of millions of Christian people know about all these word changes God has left his word. So good enough for God almighty is good enough for us
