Investigations
One lie. Many witnesses.
A case, not a category. Read one, or read the case.
Some false teachings are too large to answer in a single study. They run through dozens of sermons, hold up whole systems, and get repeated until nobody checks them. An investigation takes one of them by name, puts it on trial, and answers it from several directions at once. One study sets out the case. Each of the others closes one part of it and stands on its own. Start anywhere.
Each investigation puts one teaching on trial and calls the witnesses one at a time.
Investigation
The Living Temple
Four witnesses to one question, walked one at a time
The teaching on trial
You are the temple, the Spirit lives in you — handed down from the pulpit as a phrase with no teaching behind it. The believer is told a third person of a godhead has moved in, and is never shown the Most Holy Place, the High Priest who entered it, or the Torah that governs how any dwelling of Yahuah is ordered, cleansed, filled and kept.
What did Yahushua actually do with the Law of Moses? Not which parts survived — what did He do to it? Scripture answers with four verbs, and the four are one house.

Investigation
The End Times Gap
Four holes cut into prophecy — and who cut them
The teaching on trial
Nearly everything the prophets described is still ahead of us — the tribulation, the kingdom, the binding of the enemy, the last war. So the church spends its life waiting for what it was given to live in.
Where did the church get a seven-year tribulation, a rebuilt temple, and a thousand-year kingdom still ahead of us? Every one of them needs a blank cut into a passage that has none.

Investigation
The Mountain Message Christianity Never Preached
Ten witnesses to one sermon, and the Law named at both ends
The teaching on trial
The Sermon on the Mount is the new and higher way Yahushua brought, replacing the Law He came to end — when every line of it is Torah, quoted and explained.
What is the Sermon on the Mount actually made of? Not which parts are still binding — what was Yahushua quoting? Ten passages, and every one of them was already written.

Investigation
Spoken in Hebrew
The message beneath the Greek — and what the Greek carried in
The teaching on trial
The New Testament was composed in Greek, and the Greek is the source: when a hard question comes up, the answer begins, “The Greek says…”
Was the message of Yahushua first spoken in Greek, or in Hebrew — and what did the Greek carry in? Eight witnesses answer.

Investigation
The Sealed Count
Five witnesses to one number, and the councils that changed it
The teaching on trial
The church gave the world its Old Testament. Bishops at Hippo and Carthage decided which books belonged, and until they voted, the matter was open.
Who closed the Old Testament — a church council, or the people to whom the oracles were committed? Five witnesses answer.
