I have chickens. They are not my chickens. They belong to the neighbor. He already had chickens in a chicken coop. Now he has ten more chickens. They are not in the chicken coop. They are in my yard. My flowers. Digging holes in the yard and around the foundation of the house. Pooping on the porch. Hanging out. I tried playing red-tail hawk sounds really loud. I tried taking watermelon rinds and veggie scraps over to their property, but they still lurk in the shady spots and follow me around every time I go outside to work. They just stick around. It took me a whole day to lay chicken wire under the flower bed mulch to keep them from destroying my carefully designed and freshly-planted flower beds. We let the neighbor know, but so far, we still have sticken’ chickens. I even told them the story of when Billie Idol went missing, but while they enjoyed story time, they don’t connect Billie’s demise to their current situation. Chickens are like that. When I was four years old, my first pet was a chicken named Slicker. Grandma’s cat Fuchsia ate it. I didn’t connect a cat to Slicker’s current situation. I was telling a good friend about our sticken’ chickens yesterday, and we were chatting about the danger of Moses’ forty days of absence on the mountain. The Israelites and mixed multitude pretty much gave up on his return. In spite of every miracle they’d seen, they couldn’t wait forty full days for the next one. Not only that, they started breaking the Big Ten. An idol. Sexual immorality. You know the story. They’d been delivered from slavery in Egypt; they’d been immersed as a congregation in the Reed Sea; they’d witnessed the glory of Adonai and agreed to His covenant at the mountain…and yet, they had sticken’ chickens from Egypt. They went right back to feeding slavery to sin. “For I do not want you to be unaware, brethren, that our fathers were all under the cloud and all passed through the sea; and all were baptized into Moses in the cloud and in the sea...” (1 Co 10:1-2) The tunnel of the Reed Sea was like a birth canal. Immersion has always been a symbol of a resurrection that is more than symbolic. On the Third Day of Creation was a birth of life from the water to fruit trees. On the dawn of the Seventh Day of Passover, the Israelites completed a supernaturally fast, effortless journey through the Reed Sea. Likewise, immersion (mikveh) is undertaken as a rebirth. The pattern is this: • Water represents spirit (as does fire) • The earth is the substance of mankind, adam • When YHVH turns the sea into dry land as a way of escape, that which was spirit became substance/flesh in order to provide a new beginning for Israel/mankind, a resurrection from the sin decay of mere earth to earthly life with the spirit, a promise of wholeness and perfections completed from above • New life follows a mikveh in Messiah, the Great Hand of YHVH. This is the mystical picture of the Reed Sea. When YHVH turned the sea into dry land, he figuratively resurrected the Israelites. When the natural body dies, it returns to the earth. In Messiah Yeshua, the bared arm of YHVH, mankind is resurrected from earth through water. “What shall we say then? Are we to continue in sin so that grace may increase? May it never be! How shall we who died to sin still live in it? Or do you not know that all of us who have been baptized into Christ Jesus have been baptized into His death? Therefore we have been buried with Him through baptism into death, so that as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, so we too might walk in newness of life. For if we have become united with Him in the likeness of His death, certainly we shall also be in the likeness of His resurrection, knowing this, that our old self was crucified with Him, in order that our body of sin might be done away with, so that we would no longer be slaves to sin; for he who has died is freed from sin.” (Ro 6:1-7) When we turn back to sin, we’re not quite dead enough. Few who...

The annual Torah cycle reading for this week is parsha “Beha’alotecha,” (Numbers 8:1-12:16), and it is a true potpourri of events and issues, “from menorah to metzorah.” Mark Call of Shabbat Shalom Mesa fellowship begins with the Erev Shabbat reading: As has been so often the case, but ESPECIALLY now, events in the world again […]

Are the present riots the beginning of WWIII that will lead to the revealing of the antichrist? Is this “it”? How many new vaxxines will be foisted upon the public by 2030? Will the UN divide “The Land” next week? Please join me for a look at our immediate future as, possibly, the Ruler of […]

Host Mark Call reviews the major events, actual news stories, and outright media lies, for the week ending Saturday, 14 June, 2025. And perhaps more importantly, looks at some warnings for the weekend ahead.

The message of the show has always been contained in the title, from Revelations 18:4. But this week, it’s a short-term focus: “Things are coming to a head.” Be ready.

David and Mark talk about the events of the week, and the likely unrest scheduled for the coming weekend.

The apostle Paul’s letter to the Galatians may well be the ‘most twisted Book in the Bible.’ There is no doubt that much of what he wrote about, even warned about, has literally been “turned on its head.” Join the Torah Teachers, Ray Harrison, Pete Rambo, and Mark Call as they unpack the reasons why, […]

The Torah teachers, Ray Harrison and Mark Call, begin a detailed look at what MC calls the “most twisted Book in the Bible,” the Apostle Paul, or Shaul’s, letter to the Galatians.

Mark Call reviews the major events, actual news stories, smokescreens, catfights, and still more outright lies being revealed, for the week ending Saturday, 7 June, 2025.

David Justice and Mark Call take a look back at some of the events of a week where World War Three took a decidedly nuclear turn, more treason seems obvious by the day, and the media couldn’t seem to find anything more important to talk about than the Breakup of the Big Beautiful Bromance.
