| It is amazing that there is a world wide growing interest in the Jewish Roots of the Christian faith. Christendom is rediscovering that the Bible was primerally a book written by Jews to Jews, with a plan (Abrahamic) to eventually include the gentiles. The early church was made up of entirely Jewish believers, with no mention of a gentile believer until Acts 8. Could this movement signal a return to the original Jewishness of our faith, and be the long sought after common denominator to unify the church? With some 22,000 denominations one would hope so. As gentiles we need to know that we are the wild branches grafted into the root of Abrahamic covenant leading to the salvation blessing, along side the natural (Jewish) branches. With an astounding growing number of Jewish people believing in Yeshua Ha Mashiach (Jesus the Messiah)these past few decades, it appears the harvest may be winding up, the same way it began. |

| Shalom! I was very excited to see this topic. It is what God has impressed on my heart and what my entire ministry is based on...helping to restore the Hebraic Heritage of our Faith. I do not beleive it is a matter of right or wrong...but perspective. How can we know or understand something that has never been taught to us...or for that matter...never been taught to our Pastors, leaders and teachers. If anyone is interested..I have a ministry that teaches Hebraic Roots of our Faith...you can access it through.... http://www.texomamessianicfellowship.org/TEACHING.html Shalom Shalom!

| Praise God for this article!! God is opening the eyes of our understanding in these last days! We, too, are learning about our Jewish Roots at Perfectly Whole Christian Center, Harrisburg, PA. http://www.perfectlywhole.org/ Remember, Jesus came as a Jew, lived as a Jew, kept the Feast Days, fulfilled all of the Spring Feast Days, i.e., Passover Lamb on the Feast of Passover; took all the sin on Him on Feast of Unleavened Bread; was the Firstfruit from the dead on the Feast of Firstfruits;and fulfilled the outpouring of the Holy Ghost on the Feast of Pentecost. The only Feast Days that have not yet been fulfilled are the Feast of Trumpets (the ingathering - The Rapture); the Day of Atonement (the Second Coming); and the Feast of Tabernacles (The Day of the Lord / the Millennium). At the Day of Atonement,He will return as a Jew to the Mount of Olives, enter into the Eastern Gate in Jerusalem, and set up His Kingdom. Those of us, who were caught up in the Rapture with Him (John 14, 1 Cor. 15:51, 52, 1 Thess. 4:16, 17), will return with Him, and rule and reign with Him. (Dan. 7; Joel 2; Rev. 19) The Government will be upon His shoulders (Isa. 9:6) and He will rule the Universe and prepare it for 1000 years for the coming of The Father, Who will return with the Capital City New Jerusalem, when The Father comes at the time of the Great White Throne Judgment before entering eternity. (Rev. 20) So, we praise God for the privilege of being grafted in. The Gospel is to the Jews first then to us. For God so loves the world that He sent His only begotten Son that whoever receives Him shall not perish, but have everlasting life. (John 3:16) As many as receive HIM TO THEM GAVE HE POWER TO BECOME THE SONS OF GOD...EVEN TO THEM THAT BELIEVE ON HIS NAME (JOHN 1:12). JESUS...YESHUA...IMMANUEL... THE HOLY ONE OF ISRAEL..OUR SOON COMING KING!!! BE READY!! Love and blessings in Jesus, Rev. Dr. Shirley Knothe Co-Pastor, Perfectly Whole Christian Center |
