YHWH / Yahowa - The Lord and God of Israel

These videos offer a fresh perspective on the Old Testament and the concept of God as understood by the Israelites. The Old Testament is filled with accounts of bloodshed and brutality, which can be difficult to reconcile with the merciful and loving God revealed by Jesus Christ. Christians look to the Old Testament not only to trace the history of revelation leading up to Christ but also to understand the dark history of humanity, especially the tribes into which our Lord Jesus incarnated. Even after 2,000 years since Christ’s death and resurrection, many believers still struggle to make sense of the harsh events recorded in the Old Testament and how they relate to the gospel of grace.

It is crucial to reconcile these differences to worship the true God with conviction, without carrying the baggage of unresolved questions about the Old Testament. While some reject the Old Testament entirely, others embrace it as an extension of Jewish tradition, or try to interpret it allegorically when the disconnect feels too great. Unfortunately, there are also those who respond harshly to any questioning of these ancient texts.

Pastor Shibu Peediyekkal, a true scholar of the Bible, tradition, and various theological perspectives—Orthodox, Catholic, Calvinistic, Baptist, Brethren, and Protestant—embarks on a thoughtful journey to connect the dots and shed light on these challenging issues. His unwavering commitment to discovering the truth has led him to question some of the fundamental understandings held by many Christian sects, even within his own community. Despite facing resistance, Pastor Shibu's thought-provoking insights have created a meaningful impact, helping many resolve long-held doubts. As a result, even those who had distanced themselves from the Church are returning, eager to rediscover their faith and learn more about their traditions and history.

While these videos are not presented in any particular order, they provide valuable insights for those seeking to better understand the connection between the Old and New Testaments. We encourage anyone still struggling with these issues to approach the videos with an open mind. However, if you feel fully convinced in your current understanding, these videos may not offer much benefit. For those still searching for answers, we hope these teachings will be an enlightening resource on your journey to finding the truth.
