Episode XXVII "Tíkkün Ölám (Repairing The World) תיקון עולם: Messiah Yeshua - The REAL Superhero!"
Shalom Aleikhem, my dear listeners! Both believer and nonbeliver alike! Peace be upon you all, to the glory of Abbah Father YHVH in the Name of Messiah Yeshua! Welcome back to my blog! If you're reading this, that means that there's a new episode of Finding Hyer Ground currently under construction and on the way!
In this upcoming episode, I've been led by Rüakh HaKodesh Holy Spirit to share with you the VERY Jewish concept of 'Tíkkün Ölám' - 'תיקון עולם' - 'Repairing The World' through a deep dive study of Romans Chapters 3,5 and 8.
Romans (Rom) 5:12-21 CJB
[12] "...Here is how it works: it was through one individual that sin entered the world, and through sin, death; and in this way death passed through to the whole human race, inasmuch as everyone sinned. [13] Sin was indeed present in the world before Torah was given, but sin is not counted as such when there is no Torah. [14] Nevertheless death ruled from Adam until Moshe, even over those whose sinning was not exactly like Adam’s violation of a direct command. In this, Adam prefigured The One who was to come. [15] But the free gift is not like the offence. For if, because of one man’s offence, many died, then how much more has God’s grace, that is, the gracious gift of One Man, Yeshua the Messiah, overflowed to many! [16] No, the free gift is not like what resulted from one man’s sinning; for from one sinner came judgment that brought condemnation; but the free gift came after many offences and brought acquittal. [17] For if, because of the offence of one man, death ruled through that one man; how much more will those receiving the overflowing grace, that is, the gift of being considered righteous, rule in life through The One Man Yeshua the Messiah! [18] In other words, just as it was through one offence that all people came under condemnation, so also it is through one righteous act that all people come to be considered righteous. [19] For just as through the disobedience of the one man, many were made sinners, so also through the obedience of The Other Man, many will be made righteous. [20] And the Torah came into the picture so that the offence would proliferate; but where sin proliferated, grace proliferated even more. [21] All this happened so that just as sin ruled by means of death, so also grace might rule through causing people to be considered righteous, so that they might have eternal life, through Yeshua the Messiah, our Lord."

As we see here, it does indeed seem as if Sha'ul of Tarshish alludes that Messiah Yeshua came to His creation to fix or even undo the calamity that befell upon mankind through Adam's initial transgression against YHVH.
It is precisely this 'fixing' and 'undoing' that I will be focusing in on in this upcoming Episode XXVII, as I explain parts of Romans Chapters 3, 5 and 8 in greater depth, which will then segue into explaining in greater detail the very Jewish concept of 'Tíkkün Ölám' תיקון עולם - Repairing The World! This time, I will do it House Hillel style and present both sides of the coin! Both the Rabbinical perception of 'Tíkkün Ölám' and the Messianic Jewish perception of the concept will be represented, respectively. I will also demonstrate just how Messiah Yeshua FULFILLS this very concept, thus bringing the circle to a full close by returning to what our dear brother Sha'ul of Tarshish writes to the Romans in his letter to said Messianic Community.
I do hope you enjoy this upcoming episode!
