The inspiration for this blog came from something Pesach of Tzfat, Israel said to me in our conversation. I had been investigating the passage of God’s conversation with Cain since at least 2008 of even before. I told my wife way back then that something in me told me that the answer to life was …

My Beliefs: I am a Bnei Noach (Child of Noah. A Bnei Noach is one who keeps the seven laws given by the God of Abraham, Isaac & Jacob to the non-Jewish nations. The Laws were given from Adam through Noah. Bnei Noach/Noahide are modern terms for the non-Jewish followers of the G-d of Israel. There are a few ancient biblical names, in the Hebrew they are, Yiras Hashem (God Fearers), Ger/Gerim (this term appears many times in the biblical text, depending on the context it can mean a stranger or foreigner who keeps the Bnei Noach covenant.
The Seven Law
1. Awareness of God
a. The belief in the One True non-corporeal God
2. Prohibition of blasphemy
a. The obligation to respect God's Name, to revere and fear God .
b. Prohibition of cursing any of God's Names
3. Prohibition of murder and injury
4. Prohibition of forbidden sexual relations
5. Prohibition of theft
6. Prohibition of eating meat that was separated from a living animal.
7. Establishment of laws and courts.

Are You Alone?
I am involved with several online Noahide groups. One of the common issues that is brought up, almost on a weekly basis is the subject of loneliness. Many that leave the world's religions experience this. This particular subject is what makes Judaism attractive. Judaism offers rituals, ceremony and community that most folks are used to having …
Awesome Creator
It has been now, just over a year when I was at work and stepped off the stand up reach truck I drove. For a few days I felt like I did not feel right, I had attributed it to a head cold that I had, but it seemed to be slowly getting worse. Then …

Most that know me or have read some of my previous blogs, knows that part of my past included a time spent studying for Orthodox Jewish conversion after I left Christianity. The majority of the 10+ years I have been investigating and studying the Hebrew Scriptures has been for the purpose for conversion. Yes, I …
Prayer Request

"Please pray for a complete recovery of Bessie Ray Johnson Grissom bat John Franklin Johnson, Evelyn Louise Grissom Keele bat Fayettie Carron Grissom, and Roy Neal Grissom ben Fayettie Carron Grissom." Roy Neal Grissom is a prominent Noahide. He needs …
My Noahide Experience
Since leaving Christianity, I have had many discussions with other Christians. Somewhere in the talks they will bring up how Jesus/Yeshua changed their life and how he delivered them from some kind of vise, like, alcohol, drugs or so on. A well known rabbi once said after hearing a similar comment, “That’s not a …
They Are Not A Religion
One of the principles of Noahide Laws is that the 7 Laws are not a religion in and of themselves and are not to be used to form a religion. This principle is found in many books explaining the Noahide Laws and The Divine Code by Rabbi Moshe Weiner has it falling under the …
