THIS could be TOO LONG for YOU?

They told me it’s too long.
Too deep.
Too intense.
Too much.

But let me ask you something:
Was Mount Sinai short and sweet?
Did God whisper in 90-second reels?
Did Yeshua teach in soundbites?
No. He carved truth in fire and blood. He taught in mysteries and covenants. He didn’t cater to attention spans. He provoked repentance and obedience.

And if you’re reading this… maybe, just maybe… you’re not like the others.

This Sunday at 3 PM EDT, I’m going LIVE on Rumble and YouTube to break open this exact issue:
“Too Deep for the Remnant? Shallow Teaching vs. Lasting Truth.”

We live in a scroll-and-swipe generation that wants everything convenient, customizable, and quick. But when it comes to the eternal Word of God, that posture is deadly. Shallow theology doesn’t survive the coming fire.

We are not called to spiritual snacks. We are invited to a covenant meal.

Tzitzit and TikToks: A Wake-Up Call to the Faithful

I used this phrase recently: “Patience is thinner than a single strand of tzitzit.” And someone asked me, “What is tzitzit?”

Fair question.
But it reveals something: we’ve lost connection to the very language of obedience.

Tzitzit are sacred fringes commanded by God in Numbers 15:37–41, worn on the corners of the garments of His covenant people as a visible, daily reminder to obey His commandments. Every strand, knot, and wrap is encoded with His identity and His call.

When the woman with the issue of blood reached for Yeshua’s garment in Matthew 9:20, she wasn’t just grabbing fabric—she was reaching for the tzitzit. The covenant. The promise.

She reached for the obedience of Messiah Himself.

And now? We barely tolerate two minutes of teaching before we’re distracted. Our spiritual memory has been outsourced to algorithms.

But I refuse to reduce the Torah to trend-chasing or dilute discipleship into dopamine hits.

Truth With Teeth

The early believers—those who shook the world—“devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching” (Acts 2:42). That teaching was rich, complex, rooted in Tanakh, Torah, and Messiah’s fulfillment. It wasn’t sugar-coated or seeker-sensitive. It was covenant-level clarity.

We are raising a generation of believers with no root.
No anchor.
No endurance.

But Messiah said clearly:
“The one who endures to the end will be saved.” — Matthew 24:13

The remnant must rise.

No Butter Knives Allowed

“For the word of God is alive and active, sharper than any double-edged sword…” — Hebrews 4:12

Not a pacifier.
Not a butter knife.
A sword.

That means truth will cut.
It will divide flesh from spirit.
It will offend.
But that is exactly what makes it real.

Dr. Michael Heiser wisely said, “The Bible was written for us, but not to us.” In other words, it demands context—Hebrew, Aramaic, ANE culture—not just coffee mug theology.

Dr. Skip Moen reminds us that biblical truth is never abstract—it’s relational, covenantal, and always embodied in action. If your theology doesn’t walk, it isn’t biblical.

So no, this isn’t for the masses.
It’s for the remnant.

Will You Join Me at the Table?

Here’s the challenge:
Will you trade the convenience of cotton-candy Christianity for the depth of the covenant?

Will you unplug from the stream of mindless content and instead sit with the Word—front to back, Hebrew to Greek, Genesis to Revelation?

Will you join me live this Sunday at 3 PM EDT on Rumble and YouTube and choose to walk in the ancient path that still sets captives free?

Because shallow light doesn’t hold in the storm.
We need depth.
We need roots.
We need Him.

Closing Exhortation

We don’t serve a shallow Savior.
We don’t read a shallow Word.
And we cannot be shallow people.

Shalom b’Shem Yeshua!
