Anti-Semitism and our Rabbi Yeshua

SCENE: The water cooler at the office. An Anti-Semite is trying to convince a co-worker that the Jewish people should be blamed for "everything" Anti-Semite:  "All the world's troubles come from the Jews" Average Joe: "Oh really, from the Jews??!" Anti-Semite:  "You know they have all the money in the world" Average Joe: "All of it? Seems to me that Bill Gates and Donald Trump have some, not to mention the Saudi Royal Family" Anti-Semite:  "They're taking over the government too" Average Joe: "I can't seem to remember any Jewish Presidents" Anti-Semite:  "Besides, they're not pure Americans anyway" Average Joe: "My ancestors are from Italy, where are yours from? Anti-Semite:  "Never Mind! Like I said, our troubles are from the Jews" Average Joe: "OK, from the Jews,... and the Bicycle riders" Anti-Semite:   "Why the Bicycle riders??" Average Joe:  "Why the Jews?!!" “Believing in Yeshua does not produce anti-Semitism. It may have been the convenient scapegoat for some, perhaps for many. For prejudice runs deep in the core of men's experience. But belief in Yeshua the Messiah is not the cause of anti-Semitism. In fact, one Jewish source claims that modern anti-Semitism is not religiously motivated at all, "Modern anti-Semitism is thus built on racial, not religious foundations and the adoption of the prevailing faith no longer provides an escape route for persecuted Jews." For a professing believers to side...

Yosef’s credentials (Mashiach’s Credentials)

Yosef's credentials (Mashiach's Credentials)

Rav Chaim Friedlander asks some incisive questions in regards to the story of Yosef's rise to power, that I believe are very instructive as to what we can expect from a true king of the Jewish people. He points out that it is remarkable that Yosef was raised to the unbelievable height of power as Egypt's second in command in such a short span of t ...

Many people asks us or assume who we are through the historical understanding of historical Christianity. Nothing can be further from the truth. Here is a small sample of what we believe. The unity of God. We do not believe in the trinity. God is one. Maran Yeshua HaMashiach said: "One of the Soferim came up, hearing them reasoning together. ...

The Jewish Messiah – Zaphnath pa’aneach

The Jewish Messiah - Zaphnath pa'aneach

Many words in the Hebrew language have a complex and twisted history. Sometimes one of the paths along which the word marched is blocked, but then another opens along which it continues its existence. This is probably the case with "Zaphnath pa'aneach", a name which appears only once in the Bible: "And Pharaoh called Joseph by the n ...

The Jewish or Gentile Messiah?

The Jewish or Gentile Messiah?

Do you know who created the new religion called Christianity? It certainly was not our Rabbi, Maran Yeshua or his Jewish followers! When our Rabbi, Maran Yeshua healed the leper, did he tell him to go light a candle in the church? No!

Avoda Zarah / Idol Worship

Who needs a plastic Jesus? What is Idol worship?

Losing my Jewishness

Losing my Jewishness

If I believe in Rabbi Maran Rabbeinu Yeshua as the Messiah, won't I lose my Jewishness? No you won't! God made you Jewish and no one can ever change that, regardless of what any one might say. You are still a descendant of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, it is in your DNA (and even through your spiritual DNA, called Neshama). Besides, the real question ...
