The Truth—Reformation 2.0

I, Nathan Lawrence, have read and helped to edit the following book and have advised my good friend and brother in the faith, Luke Abaffy, while he was writing it. By his own admission, Luke has relied heavily on my teachings in the writing of his book.

But, more importantly, as I was reading and editing Luke’s book, it became clear to me that YHVH has given him much fresh revelation and new insights, which I have found to be unique, refreshing and inspiring in our attempt to understand and then to present a Torah-based view of the Scriptures to those around us. Honestly, in my more than 50 years of studying the Torah and attempting to living a Torah-compliant lifestyle, I have not come across another apologetic that addresses Christianity’s anti-Torah views as well as this book does. Luke’s book is compelling and spiritually energizing. Thus, I am convinced that Luke is a Spirit-led instrument in the hands of the Almighty YHVH Elohim to bring the Truth of Torah in light of Christianity’s apathy toward it to a whole new level and a new generation of believers. I have never said this about another book on this subject.

Therefore, please purchase his book, read it and assimilate the concepts found therein and then share it with others who are looking to help bring the lost sheep of Israel back to the Truth of the Bible.

This promotion is totally unsolicited by anyone, and Nathan Lawrence and Hoshana Rabbah Biblical Resources gains no financial or other benefit from it other than knowing that this book will help to advance the kingdom of Elohim for the glory of Yeshua our Messiah. —Nathan Lawrence


Presenting the new E book and paperback book by Luke Abaffy (creator of The Way Documentary) entitled The Truth-Reformation 2.0. This new books is…

A lighthearted, hard-hitting apologetics book from the creators of THE WAY documentary. Inside you’ll find:

  • The biblical case for keeping (even more of) God’s law
  • 25 contradictions in popular theology solved
  • Illustrations that visually contrast true and false doctrines
  • Clear language you can use to articulate your beliefs

Read THE TRUTH on your digital devices! You’ll receive an email with a choice of ebook file formats to download once your order is processed & completed. Learn more about THE TRUTH in the description below.

For 2,000 years, Christians taught that trying to keep the laws of the Old Testament is at worst, a blasphemous attempt to earn one’s salvation and at best, a misguided pursuit meant for Jewish people alone. Thanks to our fortunate involvement in the New Covenant, we don’t need to concern ourselves with now-symbolic food laws or the shadow-picture feasts of Leviticus 23 … or do we?.What if those laws are essential to the New Covenant and tied to the very purpose of life? What if they reveal more of Jesus’s example for us to follow? And what if the law of God is a perfect reflection of who He is, allowing us to know Him in a deeper way than ever before?
The Truth: Reformation 2.0
 is an apologetics resource that reveals harmful contradictions in popular Christian theology. 

Description

Inside you’ll find:

  • The biblical case for keeping (even more of) God’s law
  • Practical insights into what laws can be kept today and why
  • 25 contradictions in popular theology solved
  • Venn Diagrams and illustrations that visually contrast true and false doctrines
  • Clear language and a simple framework you can use to articulate your beliefs

The Truth: Reformation 2.0 provides clear, easy-to-remember answers to questions and objections like:

  • But didn’t Jesus fulfill the law so we don’t have to?
  • Why are you trying to be Jewish?
  • You’re misdirecting your energy, focusing on minutiae from the Old Testament instead of just loving people!
  • But doesn’t God love us unconditionally … no matter what we do?
  • But didn’t Jesus break the Sabbath?
  • Have you read Galatians?!
  • Aren’t we only responsible to keep the laws that are repeated in the New Testament?
  • But didn’t Jesus declare all foods clean?
  • You think it’s a good idea to stone your children!?
  • But God can sanctify something that used to be pagan to bring Himself glory!
  • But God’s law changes all the time!
  • Isn’t the point of the New Covenant that we don’t need to keep the law anymore?!
  • Didn’t Jesus give us new, more spiritual commands instead of the old stuff from the law of Moses?
  • Aren’t we, as the church, still Gentiles?
  • Shouldn’t I just decide for myself and be “fully convinced in my own mind?”

Nathan’s Private Japanese Garden of Eden Tour

There is a saying, “Practice what you preach”. Well, on this channel, we talk a lot about Japanese style tree and shrub pruning, but we live it also. This video is the first ever debut of and your personal invitation to tour Nathan’s own private Japanese garden, which he has created from nothing in his own, somewhat eclectic, Pacific Northwest style over the past 30 years. When he started, the yard was a blank palette…well, not exactly. It was actually a non-landscaped, weed-infested garbage dump. Nathan hauled out a 30-yard dumpster load of old motorcycle and car parts parts, broken furniture, pallets, dead animals, and a lot of other junk besides, and then he got to work transforming it into what it is today. Like all Japanese gardens, this one has been a work in progress, and there is still more to be done. In the mean time, please allow me to share it with you as it currently is. Enjoy. — Nathan Lawrence, the Treevangelist

Deuteronomy 26 Ki Tavo—26 Blessings for Torah-Obedience

Good old YouTube is at it again! I’m in their bad boy doghouse because of my video exposing the Satanic Babylon the Great New World Order in light of end Bible prophecy as it pertains to my belief that the COVID injection is psychologically preparing people to take the mark of beast. They are accusing me of violating their medical misinformation policy. (These satanists and their Antichrist big-pharma overlords are determined to kill us off! It’s no wonder, for Yeshua declared that Satan comes to kill, steal and destroy, and Peter informs us that the devil goes about as a roaring lion seeking whom he may devour.)

By banning videos like mine, the people of YouTube have blood on their hands, and they will answer to YHVH Elohim for their murderous actions as they squelch the truth about the COVID injections.

Interestingly, in their COVID information below, they promise to ban anyone who recommends drugs like Ivermectin and Hydroxychloroquine—drugs that have proven to help in curing COVID in many cases. Can anyone see how these people are under the thumb of the sorcerers of big pharma (read Rev 18:23)? I could go and on, but I’ll stop. I know that I’m preaching to the choir.

Anyway, here’s the link to the video on this week’s Torah portion: https://rumble.com/v1jkcmh-deuteronomy-26-ki-tavo26-blessings-of-torah-obedience.html

If you’re curious about YouTubes policy and have the stomach to read it, this is what they sent me:

YouTube doesn’t allow content that poses a serious risk of egregious harm by spreading medical misinformation about currently administered vaccines that are approved and confirmed to be safe and effective by local health authorities and by the World Health Organization (WHO).

If I keep violating YouTube’s policies, they threaten to terminate my channel forever.

YouTube goes on to say:
