Product Description
by Michel Robillard (Author)
Discover how the Messiah lived Torah-and how you can too!
What is Torah? Many people believe it is the 10 Commandments. Some say it is the first five books of the Bible. Others will tell you that it is a series of 613 commands. When it comes to understanding what Torah is, there are many answers, but ultimately, Torah is the voice of the Heavenly Father.
As the voice of our Heavenly Father, Torah is more than just the 10 commands because He gives us far more than 10 instructions to follow throughout the scriptures. Torah goes beyond just the first five books of the Bible. The Heavenly Father does not stop giving instructions after the book of Deuteronomy; He continues to guide us through anointed people, the rest of the scriptures, and in various ways, even today. In the books of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John, every word spoken by Yeshua (Jesus), the Messiah we follow, comes from the Heavenly Father.
"He who doesn't love me doesn't keep my words. The word which you hear isn't mine, but the Father's who sent me." - John 14:24
This makes Yeshua's words a continuation of the voice of the Heavenly Father, in other words, Torah.
"Torah for Modern Messiah Believers" is a comprehensive guide, a Messianic book that aims to bridge ancient biblical commandments with contemporary faith practices for believers in the Messiah. The author, a long-time student of Torah within the Messianic community, presents the Torah as the voice of the Heavenly Father and the foundational lifestyle taught and exemplified our Savior. The book challenges traditional Christian views that dismiss Torah observance as outdated or legalistic, while also critiquing aspects of Jewish commentary that diverge from Mosaic purity. At its core, it argues that true faith in the Messiah involves living out Torah's instructions, not as a means of salvation, but as a response to it, fostering spiritual growth, unity, and a deeper relationship with the Heavenly Father.
Torah is Yeshua's (Jesus) way of life, not a replacement for faith but its expression.
The author emphasizes worshiping the Father alone, aligning with Yeshua's own directives. The book is inclusive, welcoming all seekers regardless of background, but rooted in the belief that Yeshua is the Messiah and Torah is binding for his followers.
Torah for Modern Messiah Believers challenges pre-conceptions of Torah, exploring a broader count that includes repetitions, prophetic extensions, and New Testament affirmations. It organizes commands chronologically by their first biblical appearance, starting in Genesis and extending through Deuteronomy, Prophets, and New Testament.
This book covers:
Controversies: Torah isn't about sinless perfection but developing a "perfect heart" toward God (citing Abraham, David) and contingency plans for sin (Numbers 15:22-28). It debunks "No one can keep the law" as demonic discouragement, pointing to Zacharias/Elizabeth (Luke 1:6), and Job.
Categories like "Unconditional" (applicable today) vs. "Conditional" (e.g., temple-dependent) help modern observance. It advocates heart obedience over rote ritual, warning against hypocrisy (Matthew 23).
Torah as Yeshua's Lifestyle: Yeshua fulfilled Torah by living it perfectly (Matthew 5:17-19), not abolishing it. Believers imitate him (John 14:15; 1 John 2:6), countering antinomianism.
Heart Transformation: External obedience without internal change is futile. Torah changes character, fostering love, humility, and unity (Deuteronomy 30:6; Matthew 22:37-40).
Continuity of Scripture: Old and New Testaments harmonize; Paul upholds Torah (Romans 3:31), grace enables obedience (Romans 6).
Transform your heart through Torah's timeless truth.
