I'm a new believer of Jesus, and I did feel as though I was doing something wrong and abandoning my people and religion. Jesus led me to your organization because I was seeking answers, and thankfully I heard of your organization just a few weeks ago and you changed my whole mindset and helped me truly accept that I do believe in him and i've gotten SO much closer to him since then. Thank you so much and I hope I can become closer to this community as time goes on! 🥲🙏
Amen :) Hallelujah Very happy for you. :) I want to also share that I feel the best warm comfort with being a Messiah Jew not just by blood for me but also the best and only fulfilled relationship with Messiah Lord Savior Jesus as a Jew blood. 🥰😇
*These words are not mine.* These are the words the Ruach HaKodesh (YAHUAH's Set-Apart Spirit) uttered through me when I prayed to YAHUAH; asking him what *he wants* me to say, knowing the truth:
"Know that YAHUAH is the name of the Most High and YAHUsha is the name of The Son.
Come out of her, my people, who have fallen to the deceit of Constantine. Who know not my name and say they love me. I have made myself known. I have heard you and I am here.
There are many who are yours to be saved. I am he who knows all that you are. Come to me, here are they who are mine. Make haste to come, here are we. Give in to them who speak of me, they are yours. I am here for you. Know that all is for them, here are we.
Give not to them that are against me. I am he who sees all you do. Come to me out of her, all are here for me. Do what I say. Out of her, come. All are here."

14 And God said unto Moses, I Am That I Am: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I Am hath sent me unto you.
15 And God said moreover unto Moses, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, the Lord God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, hath sent me unto you: this is my name for ever, and this is my memorial unto all generations.

Is your husband Jewish? Are your children Jewish? Will your grandchildren and great grandchildren be Jewish?
Any Jew who is descended from Jews is still Jewish because their ancestors survived all the centuries of persecution. During much of this time, the Christians were the persecutors. Jews gave their lives because Christians wanted the Jews to worship Jesus. How do you answer your ancestors? Are they not turning in their graves (or as a believer, perhaps it doesn't matter, as they are all burning in Hell anyway.)
@@Call_Upon_YAH You got the right Bible. Amen. But your video gaming is with the demons. Jesus should be telling you about that.
From the start, Jewish Believers made room for us, gentiles, in their Jewish faith. It’s about time we made room for them in ours! 🕊
I think it's an honor to be a Jew because Jesus was a Jew. ❤
We love you too Jeff. Praise God for His mercy on us.
Proud to call Jeff and Arielle brother and sister in the great body of Christ. One cannot be fully Christian if there is no rejoicing in others coming to genuine faith. Not doing so would be the exact opposite of the love Jesus commanded we have for each other.
Love this! I hope Jewish believers will share their background.❤❤

May the spirit of Palm Sunday in 2024 overflows your heart with peace, joy, and blessings. Wishing you all a Holy and Blessed Palm Sunday with presence of Jesus Christ in your life.
Beautiful lady : Physically , mentally and spiritually.
In my mind, for someone to say that being a follower of Jesus requires them to deny their Jewish culture would be the same thing as my grandmother saying she’s no longer Cherokee because she trusted Jesus as her savior. It’s totally unscriptural
So why did Christian missionaries punish Native Americans for speaking their own language? Why did Christian missionaries forcibly remove Native American children from the warmth if their parents' home and put them in boarding schools where their culture was denied and where they were often abused?
@@stephenfisher3721I don't give a dime to do called Christian missionaries.
Many are not what God calls His followers.
exactly, that's why i posted my comment to those Jews who converted to Messianic movement. I don't think many Jews don't know their Jewish identity in the Spirit. They only know their traditions and customs. Many of them don't read the Tanakh to seek the truth of our own true faith. Just like it happened in the first century. They need to be reminded who they are in their culture and original faith.
Praying that all of you and your families are safe!! Sha-alu shalom Yerushalayim!!!💙🤍💙🇮🇱 Love in Yeshua!!!💖💗💕
Such a beautiful lady. May God bless you all💝🙏💝🙏💝🙏💝
I was raised in the Christian faith and my husband became a Baptist preacher. He passed away almost 7 years ago and a few years ago I met someone who is not Jewish but is Messianic. They shared so much with me about the Messianic faith and told me that I am grafted in. I have started pursuing the Messianic faith and have felt more alive in Yeshua. Sadly there is not a Messianic community where I live so I still attend a Baptist church but practice the Messianic faith at home. It's difficult when I'm the only one in my home who does. My family doesn't understand why I have chosen to be Messianic but praying that one day they will.
Hope your husband worked for a living, like Jesus and Apostle Paul did.
Jesus and Apostle Paul didn't ask for money for themselves and therefore neither should pastors.
Bible says "he who does not work, does not eat".
Being a pastor is not "work".
Matthew 25 tells us where to use God's money.
Awesome
It is funny. I am older. For most of my life, awesome was a word not often used. It was used to refer to God or some awe inspiring creation of God such as the Grand Canyon. Today awesome is used all the time and can refer to even something common, ordinary, or mundane.
bless you all
I am from a catholic country and I think that 80% of the people here have been baptizied, because it is the tradition when you are a baby. But I feel that only a small amount of them are truly believers nowadays. So I think that we need to recieve the Godspell again.
I have been talking about you with a couple of partnets at work. I do feel that your testimony is very touching and can reach their heart much deeper than the tradicional way.
I think that you are in the top, you play (or fight) in the first line. Jewish people is the people choosed by God in the Old Testament, and those Jews who believe in Jesus play in the first line.
Greetings from the Basque Country.
No one got baptized when they were a child. It's a made up tradition like many others the catholic church made up. In the Scriptures only adults once they got saved then were baptized. John 1:29 John the Baptist was baptizing adults in the Jordan River.
That's probably the case with most countries -- small number are believers.
Many so called evangelicals claim to be Christians cause they say they "believe" the gospel but when I talk to them, they don't know what the gospel is, yet they claim they do.
They pick one verse and say that's the gospel.
Many Catholics and evangelicals are lost.
Many so called evangelicals say "turn from sin" is not in the Bible so don't tell me to turn from sin. They say "it's impossible to turn from sin cause everyone sins daily". Boggles my mind.
Just as you so often talk about the book of Matthew being a transition for Jews to learn about Jesus from the New Testament, I see Messianic congregations as a way for them to begin to worship Him without feeling like they are turning their backs on Judaism.
Why do you say "them"? Are you not a Jew yourself?
There's so much information being disseminated by Rabbis and Pastors, (all purportedly representing God accurately) and that information is arduously competing for residence in the thought life and affections of believers. I love and appreciate what you guys are doing to bridge the divide of understanding between Christian and Jew, as you seek to rightly divide the scripture. It's a beautiful thing that you're part of, and I wish the effects were more noticeable in the gentile churches. God bless you guys...keep at it!
Jesus, hear my prayers these past three years have been difficult on me I am weak. Give me guidance. Please come back soon I don’t know how much longer I can hold on. As a single parent things are hard on me both of my sons are autistic and my hours to work are limited because I’m now homeschooling them. I’m constantly struggling to provide the basic necessities for them I’m so ashamed. I suffered an heart attack and I’m battling lupus I’m overwhelmed. Father God hear my prayers. I constantly struggle to pay my bills and struggle to provide groceries. BUT I KEEP FAITH. Even though I want to give up. Jesus please take the fear from my heart. Father God it is you that gives me the strength to keep going. I praise you Father even as I fear homelessness please continue to give me strength.
Wow..... I just want you to know I read your report, I earnestly pray that God/Jesus will lighten your burden and that you don't lose faith because He is real. We all have different struggles but I pray God's blessings upon you and your family in Jesus's name. Amen
Dear sister… You have the Spirit of God in you… rest the whole weight of your personality on Him. Turn away from the fear, refuse to let it rule over you in the strength of our wonderful Saviour, our Risen Lord Jesus!
Instead, live out the truth of these words:
Romans 6:4-7
We were buried therefore with Him by baptism into death, in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, we too might walk in newness of life.
For if we have been united with Him in a death like His, we shall certainly be united with Him in a resurrection like His. We know that our old self was crucified with Him in order that the body of sin might be brought to nothing, so that we would no longer be enslaved to sin. For one who has died has been set free from sin.
HE HAS TAKEN YOUR FEAR AWAY ALREADY. LIVE OUT THE TRUTH OF IT.
But wait, there’s more…
Romans 6:12-23
Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body, to make you obey its passions. Do not present your members to sin as instruments for unrighteousness, but present yourselves to God as those who have been brought from death to life, and your members to God as instruments for righteousness.
For sin will have no dominion over you, since you are not under law but under grace.
What then? Are we to sin because we are not under law but under grace? By no means! Do you not know that if you present yourselves to anyone as obedient slaves, you are slaves of the one whom you obey, either of sin, which leads to death, or of obedience, which leads to righteousness? But thanks be to God, that you who were once slaves of sin have become obedient from the heart to the standard of teaching to which you were committed, and, having been set free from sin, have become slaves of righteousness. I am speaking in human terms, because of your natural limitations. For just as you once presented your members as slaves to impurity and to lawlessness leading to more lawlessness, so now present your members as slaves to righteousness leading to sanctification.
For when you were slaves of sin, you were free in regard to righteousness. But what fruit were you getting at that time from the things of which you are now ashamed? For the end of those things is death. But now that you have been set free from sin and have become slaves of God, the fruit you get leads to sanctification and its end, eternal life. For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.
😮
We are called to Christ.
Amen
I am a Catholic, and I am so sorry you bumpt into that particular person. On our side we feel a strong connection between jews and catholics. We have the higest respect for His people.
The Catholic Church has been amazing in trying to improve relations with Jews, their elder brothers in faith. In the past, Catholics were taught that Jews were Christ killers but that has stopped. It is the Protestant Evangelicals who are constantly hounding me to convert. Just last week, I was talking to a docent at the Jewish Museum in Tulsa who told me that a Protestant minister protested that a guide in the museum was spreading lies. The lie? The pastor said the guide said the Romans killed Jesus but the New Testament clearly teaches that the Jews killed Christ and all generations of Jews are guilty.
Christians have long persecuted Jews because the Christians believe that the Jews killed Jesus and the Book of Matthew in the New Testament says:"And all the people answered, "His blood be on us and on our children!" Question: These Jewish believers in Christ who want to keep their Jewish identity, are they then still guilty as Christ-killers? Isn't it smarter for Jewish believers in Christ to be Christians and give up their Jewish identity so they won't be Christ-killers anymore?
@@stephenfisher3721oh goodness!
Isaiah 53 clearly tells us Who orchestrated Jesus’ death on our behalf. The human agents who brought Him to the sacrificial point, who confessed their sins over His sacred Head, who laid their hands on Him as they did so - albeit mockingly - were representing all of humanity.
Isaiah 53:6b
… the LORD has laid on Him
the iniquity of us all.
Isaiah 53:10
Yet it was the will of the LORD to crush Him;
He has put Him to grief;
when His soul makes an offering for guilt,
He shall see His offspring [that’s you & me, right there… and everyone who has ever been born again]; He shall prolong His days;
the will of the LORD shall prosper in His hand.
Let’s stop the infantile nonsense of “Who killed Christ”.
The catholic church has murdered millions of Jews and Christians in their history. Trail of blood and foxxs book of martyrs.
@@stephenfisher3721 A Catholic lady told me she is antisemitic. I reminded her Jesus was Jewish. She said "So what? He started Christianity and that's all that matters. She said Jews killed Jesus". So you're wrong, it has not stopped.
She didn't like Jews no matter what but claimed to be a devout Catholic. Yeah, Catholic but Not Christian !
No follower of Jesus is antisemitic so she's Not a Christian. Calling oneself a Christian Doesn't make them a Christian if they don't follow Jesus.
Book of 1st John and other verses in the Bible tell us who is saved from hell. Please pray for Catholics. Most Catholics I know are Not saved.
Many Catholics I know are antisemitic.
Even the Catholic priest at my mom's church gave honor to a WW2 fascist (Ante Pavelić) in one of his sermons in his Catholic church. Pure evil !
Shalom friends in Israel and America ! from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil! 🇧🇷💚💛💙🇮🇱
Yeshua is my Messiah and Savior!
I love this program ! We all put JESUS ON THE CROSS OURS SINS JESUS CHOSE TO DIE FOR ALL OF US,THANK YOU LORD. IM A GENTILE FRON USA CT. AND I LOVE THE JEWISH PEOPLE ANYONE WHO TRUELY
KNOWS GOD AND IS DIRECTED BY THE HOLY SPIRIT . WHEN WE ACCEOT JEWUS AS SAVIOR WE ARE GRAFTED IN. THANK GOD FOR YOU YOUR SHOW ONE FOR ISREAL. LOVE WATCHING THE JEWISH COME TO KNOW JESUS IS THE MESSIAH. GOD BLESS THE JEWISH PEOPLE AND GOD BLESS THE GENTILES WHO ARE BLESSED ENOUGH TO BE GRAFTED IN. KEEP PREACHING SHARING LOVING THE PEOPLE OF ISRAEL.
Let he who is without sin cast the first stone. If I was there I would break bread with you all . Whe need to see everyone as fallen creatures that have all fallen short of the glory of Yah. Bless you all.
I grew up as a catholic believer... when I was little didn't understood why Jewish people were so hated.
I feel so much empathy now... due to finding out that the whole issue is a spiritual battle. The devil can use anyone to prosecute any individual just because we praise our God. Someone who wants to follow the creator will be prosecuted, in any way, shape or form.
I have been hated just because i am in love with God the father, the son and the Holy Spirit.
This not about been Jewish, or Catholic, or any denomination... it is because we belong to him.
The teaching here is that we should love each other despite our religious believes. We are all brothers and sisters.
It is not about who carry the best religion. It is about that we will be judge on how much or little we loved.
God bless the Jewish people. I love you all with my Catholic background.🥳
❤
Catholicism is contrary to what the Bible says. That's why I left Catholicism.
The catholic church has been cruel and has a terrible history of the way they treat Jews and real Christians
Thanks Arielle for sharing openly about your experience. Sad that people would speak so ignorantly about what Jesus did for all of us, blaming the Jewish people for what Jesus did for ALL of us.
As a Christ follower I love and pray for Israel and the Jewish family. The love of our Lord is so deep for Israel and the Jewish people. The gospel begins in Jerusalem ❤
I’m a gentile believer and this video is so beautiful. And your channel is an encouragement for me, especially on those really difficult days. I love my Jewish and gentile brothers and sisters in Christ so very much! 💖
Thanks for the dialogues you presented. I found these quite inspiring which sparked my curiosity about Messianic Judaism.
Yea even church to church worship can be different. Some like more music and praying some like more scripture some are more mission focused etc. It's one body many parts.
Haleluja,
Glory be to Jesus.
5 branches of my mother's family was Jewish but they have been Christian far back as 1623. My group is now Apostolic Pentecostal. We follow the original plan of salvation recorded in Acts chapter 2: verses 38 an 39. Our UPCI Churches are world wide and in about every Nation on earth. We pray for our Jewish brothers and sisters often. Hoping you also grab hold of the correct plan of salvation. Thanks for the nice video.
Are you saying Jews for Jesus are on the wrong path and Pentecostal is on the right path? No
My Brothere everyone who believes in the Lord Jesus christ is saved. Salvation is free
Grace through faith you are saved not of your self or of works its a gift of God
Anyone who Bealives in Messiah shall be saved and who does not is condemned that it is Salvation is free Anyone who has recived the true Gospel is saved anyone adds or take away from the Gospel Has bealived in a false christ and it is not saved
Galatians 2:16 NKJV
[16] knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law but by faith in Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Christ Jesus, that we might be justified by faith in Christ and not by the works of the law; for by the works of the law no flesh shall be justified.
Romans 4:5 NKJV
[5] But to him who does not work but believes on Him who justifies the ungodly, his faith is accounted for righteousness,
Titus 3:5-7 NKJV
[5] not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to His mercy He saved us, through the washing of regeneration and renewing of the Holy Spirit, [6] whom He poured out on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Savior, [7] that having been justified by His grace we should become heirs according to the hope of eternal life.
No amount Of works can save you You don't work to be saved you don't live holy to be saved you don't do the Law be saved no man will justify under the law no one
Beacuse your saved you can live holy beacuse your saved you can do what is right beacuse your saved born agine cuz the spirt of God is in you the holy spirt who gives you the ability and power to live holy beacuse your saved
Ephesians 1:13-14 NKJV
[13] In Him you also trusted, after you heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation; in whom also, having believed, you were sealed with the Holy Spirit of promise, [14] who is the guarantee of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, to the praise of His glory.
Ephesians 2:8-9 NKJV
[8] For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, [9] not of works, lest anyone should boast.
Salvation is gift anyone who bealives Yeshua shall be saved but you know what don't save you chruch don't save you baptisim don't save you works don't save you Yeshua saves and changes HalleuYah thank you Yeshua anyone who contracts this has Bealived in false Gospel and needs repent and trun to the Lord and they shall saved
The pastor l watch Cloud Church org was a pentecostal until the age of 18 and thank God he got saved and left the pentecostal church. He has a video on why he is not a pentecostal.
@@SaintNehemiahFreeGrace Your words are Not what the Bible says.
Many say they "believe" but their actions/fruits prove they don't have saving faith. Please just point people to God's Word rather than try to quote an incomplete gospel, cause then it's Not the True gospel.
Thank you for being candid with your experience. What you say is true. Christians and Jews have difficulty accepting a Jew who believes in Jesus. Caught in the middle.
I was raised a Catholic, but about 30 years ago, I was invited by this by a Hindu Christian women to her Church which is worldwide. At first I just casually went, then the Lead Evangelist invited for a bible study, so I studied the bible thoroughly with him for about three weeks, taught me how to make Disciples by Evangelising and reaching to the lost just like Jesus said in Matthew 28 v 18-20. Help a few people a reached out to on the streets and church together with all the other Disciples in my church. I was a practising Christian for 9 years. I prayed and read me bible everyday. You go to a lot to trials and tribulations, had good Christian friends.
You have to remember who was emperor at the time of Jesus, it was not an insignificant time back then. All of this simply cannot be a coincidence..
What are you talking about?
Israelites are the chosen people. Be proud that you're Jewish ❤🙏🇮🇱
This is wonderful. God bless you magnificently. This shows great HOPE that there are now Jewish believers in Jesus. Amazing !
I myself am a Christian.
We all descended from Judaism originally anyway. This is the truth of God and His story of salvation.
I love your channel ❤ Amazing testimonies! Yehovah immecha - The LORD is with you 🙏 ❤ 😊
shalom.aleikhem thot of sharing this verse as prompted in my heart by the Holy Spirit.Romans 15:27 : For they were pleased to do so and they are INDEBTED to THEM.For if the Gentiles have shared in THEIR spiritual things THEY are INDEBTED to DO THEM a SERVICE also in MATERIAL THINGS.
Just Got to watch this 2 days late and want you to know we are praying for you as you are in Israel and at war now. Isa 52:12 For ye shall not go out with haste, nor go by flight: for the LORD will go before you; and the God of Israel will be your rearward. God Bless and keep you and yours in all ways bringing Glory to His Name through our Lord and Savior Jesus. 🙏👆

Do they believe Jesus Christ is God? Do they believe in Trinity?
I am so sorry that were treated like that.
It's roman catholicism one of the largest cults in history
@@georgeo785❤❤
It has not been difficult for me to follow Jesus or let others know I follow Jesus. What is hard is letting others know I follow Jesus as a Jew. It is easy to hide being Jewish.
@5:50, Vesica Pisces, huh 🤔💭 Yeah, I see what you’re about.
I can relate to Arielle’s upbringing but from the gentile side of things. Sometimes, I feel like I am in limbo too. Many times Jewish people can make comments that make me feel “less than” because I’m not Jewish.
Then on the other side, my biological family scoffs at me because I embrace the Jewish culture. But like Jeff alluded to, there will always be opposition from both sides and that’s okay. My husband, Yeshua, is Jewish so I decided to continue to push thru the comments and “think on these things”, the good, the good that exponentially outweighs the bad.
I wouldn’t trade my relationship with Yeshua or my Messianic family for anything because THEY are my Kingdom family, my forever family!
Thanks for the video. Chag Sameach!🕊🍋🌿
You write that Yeshua is your husband. Are you a Catholic nun?
As a Jew, I was warned against Messianic Jews. I was told that they are Jews who have converted to Christianity and want to convert all the other Jews and thus ending Judaism and the Jewish people. But as I look into it further, I personally keep meeting Gentiles who call themselves Messianic. Of course, I live in a small town. But even on the internet, I find all these Jewish wannabes who believe in Jesus calling themselves Messianic. This is very strange and confusing.
As a Jew, I understand the logic of some Jews who embrace Jesus but want to retain Jewish identity. However, my entire life, Protestant evangelicals have wanted me to stop being a stiff-necked Jew and convert to Christianity so I do find Messianic Judaism contrary to the invitation to Christianity which erases identity (neither Greek nor Jew).
Given the violent and dismal relationship between Christians and Jews since the Gentile takeover of the the Jewish sect of Christianity, Jews do not appreciate the appropriation of sacred Jewish objects, symbols, or rituals by Christians.
During Passover, as a Jew, I am required to eat matza at the Seder and consume no bread during all the days of the holiday but matza is allowed. One grocery store in our small town did the Jews a favor by ordering kosher for Pesach matza but few Jews were able to buy it because some Christians came and bought it up for some Seder in their Church where everything is reinterpreted christologically.
*These words are not mine.* These are the words the Ruach HaKodesh (YAHUAH's Set-Apart Spirit) uttered through me when I prayed to YAHUAH; asking him what *he wants* me to say, knowing the truth. To they with ears:
"Know that YAHUAH is the name of the Most High and YAHUsha is the name of The Son.
Come out of her, my people, who have fallen to the deceit of Constantine. Who know not my name and say they love me. I have made myself known. I have heard you and I am here.
There are many who are yours to be saved. I am he who knows all that you are. Come to me, here are they who are mine. Make haste to come, here are we. Give in to them who speak of me, they are yours. I am here for you. Know that all is for them, here are we.
Give not to them that are against me. I am he who sees all you do. Come to me out of her, all are here for me. Do what I say. Out of her, come. All are here."
Exodus 3:13-15 KJV
13 And Moses said unto God, Behold, when I come unto the children of Israel, and shall say unto them, The God of your fathers hath sent me unto you; and they shall say to me, What is his name? what shall I say unto them?
14 And God said unto Moses, I Am That I Am: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I Am hath sent me unto you.
15 And God said moreover unto Moses, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, the Lord God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, hath sent me unto you: this is my name for ever, and this is my memorial unto all generations.

7 How beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of him that bringeth good tidings, that publisheth peace; that bringeth good tidings of good, that publisheth salvation; that saith unto Zion, Thy God reigneth!
2 Corinthians 6:1-2 KJV
1 We then, as workers together with him, beseech you also that ye receive not the grace of God in vain.
2 (For he saith, I have heard thee in a time accepted, and in the day of salvation have I succoured thee: behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.)
Romans 10:1-3 KJV
1 Brethren, my heart's desire and prayer to God for Israel is, that they might be saved.
2 For I bear them record that they have a zeal of God, but not according to knowledge.
3 For they being ignorant of God's righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the righteousness of God.
Romans 10:13-17 KJV
13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.
14 *How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher?*
15 *And how shall they preach, except they be sent?* as it is written, *How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things!*
16 But they have not all obeyed the gospel. *For Esaias saith,* Lord, *who hath believed our report?*
17 *So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.*
Nahum 1:7 KJV
7 The Lord is good, a strong hold in the day of trouble; and *he knoweth them that trust in him.*

Have you repented yet of taking a few verses out of context and creating your own gospel? Bible does not contradict itself. It's meant to be written as a whole. Jesus had some tough words to say. He speaks the gospel cause He is God and the apostles just expond a little on it. They don't substitute the words of the Almighty God Jesus Christ.
To the Jee first and then the zGentile!
In the video, An Interview with Dr. Erez Soref, Christian Husbands, & Wives in the Mideast, Dr. Soref states that there were only three or four families of Jewish believers in Israel in 1948. He estimates that there are at least 30,000 Messianic Jews in Israel today. He says his wife Sisi is descended from these three or four families. "He is married to Sisi, also a born Israeli, whose family is unique in the Land of Israel as she is a fifth generation Jewish believer in Messiah Yeshua" (Epicenter Conference).
Some Christians think that Messianic Jews are in an unbroken chain from the time of the Apostles but that is clearly not true. Jewish believers were either branded as heretics and died out or forced to assimilate into the Gentile Church.Today's Messianic Jews are something new and a kind of pretend recreation of a group never tolerated by Christianity (to be a Judaizer was an insult at best or a crime at worst.)
As an American Jew, I get happily excited meeting a fellow Jew and playing Jewish geography (finding connections). I have noticed that Christians don't feel this connection with other Christians. They tend to only identity with other Christians who practice exactly as they do. Many evangelicals in my city have told me Catholics are not Christians and the Catholic Church is satanic. When I mention the persecution of Armenians, they tell me they don't care because the Armenians are not real Christians either. Apparently a Christian has to behave like an American Protestant Evangelical to be be accepted as real Christian by American Evangelical Protestants.
Are Messianic Jews close-knit? Do they love each other? Do they play Messianic Jewish geography?
Why are Messianic Jews almost always educated in Protestant Evangelical seminaries? Why can't a Messianic Jew be more like a Roman Catholic or Eastern Orthodox?
Do all the 30,000 Jewish believers in Israel know each other? Do they socialize? Do their children date each other and intermarry?
Jesus gave his life into the hands of the religious people of the time, the first followers of Jesus were Jews and they were the ones who gave their lives carrying the message of salvation so that all of humanity could be saved, Christians love the Jewish people, beautiful testimony.
I was raised Seventh Day Adventist. They keep the sabbath but not the feasts. I also found it hard to fit in normal Christians in regards to the sabbath and diet. I could not participate in a lot of things even in Christian school.
Peter and Paul who were Jews. The early believers were messianic Jews. They were the first. There belief system and practices are different from modern day Christians and catholic practices. Non Jews are grafted in…Jews need to accept the messiah and how Jesus fulfils the demands of the law because man sinned.
"Jews need to accept the Messiah"?
Let them choose.
Maybe it's not something they want.
Many non Jews don't want Jesus either.

Jesus/Yeshua is the Jewish Messiah. To the Jew first. We gentiles are just grafted in.
Believing in Him is the fulfillment of só many prophecies in Scripture
😢Indeed, I am sincerely very sorry for your very dear Great Jewish people and, in a good sense, your Great country Israel, because you suffered greatly there from unacceptable, criminal terrorism.
I pray to the only true Lord God, I ask for you all, save and preserve absolutely all Jews.

God bless Neil Diamond and Bob Dylan I think who are also Jewish believers in Jesus. Amen.
I actually met Bob Dylan many years ago at an Orthodox Jewish Shabbat meal. The extent of his flirtation with Christianity is unclear. As to Neil Diamond, a Google search shows him as a Jew but some sites say he is a Christian. However, this seems to be based on some of his recent songs. Both Dylan and Diamond write and perform songs. Even if it is a Christian song, that alone does not make them a Christian ( or as you say, a Jewish believer in Jesus).
IF IT HELPS YOU. I WOULD RECOMMEND VISITING A CATHOLIC CHURCH TO SEE WHAT CHRISTIANS ARE ABOUT. AND YES JEWISH PEOPLE WHO FOLLOW CHRIST CAN VISIT. THIS WAY YOU CAN TRULY GET THE FULL SCOPE OF CHRISTIANITY……..
I would highly recommend against it but to look at the history of the roman catholic church first. I know the truth hurts and the church tries to hide the facts but facts cannot be hidden from those that want the truth. Trail of blood and foxxs book of martyrs are good readings
😂😂
Much of Catholic doctrine is Opposite of what God said in His HOLY WORD.
Arielle I'd love to see you sing a great Gospel son, because your so beautiful
Have you ever encountered a Latter Day Saint? Jews and Mormons were rather close in Southern California.
I'm so sorry to hear somone said to you that your people killed Jesus. Jews didnt kill Jesus, our sins did.
That's absolutely right. It was love that sent Jesus Christ to the Cross and held Him there. His love for us and to forgive us of our sins. He said Father forgive them
Some Messianics make it seem that Jewish believers in Christ go back to the time of the Apostles in an unbroken chain. However, as Gentiles took over Christianity, Jewish groups such as the Ebionites were labeled as heretics and eventually died out. During the Spanish Inquisition, even cleaning your house on Friday could lead to burning at the stake. Christianity made it clear - the Jews were cursed and Christians were forbidden to adopt Jewish practices. In short, Messianic Judaism of today, at best, is an attempt to revive something that died out. Christianity never wanted Jews to thrive. Will the Christians of the future allow Messianic Jews to thrive as Jews? Judaism is against Messianic Judaism because to them it means the death of Judaism. Arielle is part of something new - a new line of Jewish believers. Will Arielle have grandchildren who identify as Jews or will history repeat itself and they will be absorbed into the greater Gentile Christianity? Isn't Messianic Judaism only applicable to the generation that accepts Jesus and only a few more generations after that? Of course, the number of Messianics and their definition is completely confused by all the grafted Gentile and Jewish wannabes flooding Messianic congregations. Where are the Messianic Congregations in the United States attended only by Jews according to halacha?
God’s will will prosper in this, Stephen.
Let’s remember, Jesus taught us the truth about His coming community of believers… it’s in the parable of the wheat and the weeds, in Matthew 13. Please check it out.
The first believers in Jesus Christ were all Jewish. The Apostles were all Jewish and all but Paul were sent to witness to the Jews. That's a Biblical fact.
@@georgeo785 and a proven historic one.
Everyone killed their King because we all have sinned and fallen short of the Glory of the Lord. He came to save the whole world. He just used the Jews to fulfill this prophecy so that Gentiles (they wouldn't know who he was like the disciples did) can have their time to become Christians and be grafted into the family of God.
Sooo,do y'all still keep the shabbat.that would be a good thing because Sunday worship is not a good thing.
I'm not Jewish buth I keep shabbath because according to Hebrews 7,8 and 9.christ is our highpriest in the heavenly sanctuary.
My Brothere or sister it does not matter the day you worship we should be worshiping the Lord Yeshua Every single Day 24 7 if I can worship Monday through Sunday you see me turning up For God almighty all day everyday Remebere judge no man for what you eat or drink or which day you worship or holiday and Remebere your saved beacuse you Bealived in Yeshua noting else noting more We are free thank you Yeshua All glory and worship goes to Yeshua HalleuYah We are saved by grace through faith not of work not of are selfs its A gift of God
✡️🙏♥️✝️
The first Christians came together on the first day of the week Sunday, it's when Jesus arose from the dead. The Apostles and the first church they were followers of Jesus Christ and full of the Holy Spirit.
As a follower of Yeshua, I am very pleased seeing Jews finding the Messiah of scripture. At the same time saddened by the fact that you refer to yourselves as messianic Jews. Am I a messianic Gentle then? In the body of Christ we are told there is no Jew or Gentile. We are all brothers and sisters in Christ. We are supposed to be new and forsaking our old self and the carnal ways that separates us. What I'm hearing is someone justifying a separation within the body of Christ for cultural preferences through carnal nonsense. Follow the two greatest commandments first and foremost. Following Yeshua is about sacrifice of self and putting others first, above our own wishes and desires, changing our ways and our thoughts. Be led by the Holy Spirit not your carnal nature. Stop trying to split the body of Christ and the Jews from their brothers and sisters as this kind of thinking is where this will lead. Peace be to all those in the body of Christ.
Yeshua The Christ Son of the living God is the only way to Yahweh The Father 🙏🏾
John 8:27((G.N.T.))✡️
Is there anything more normal and beautiful than those who have been given the promise that they will receive the messiah and become those who will carry the message of deliverance from the slavery of disobedience to the creator?
According to the Second Vatican Council, Jesus was crucified for the sins of Jews and Gentiles. It includes the sins of people in the waking life up to us. We are guilty of Jesus' crucifixion too .
@0:20, 🥵 there is No-Way a Christian said that to Her.💯
An atheist dodo bird, yeah, I’d buy that, but “Jews for Jesus” is the
FOUNDATION
of the Christian’s.😅
It's hard to believe I know, but sadly there are some Christians who think like that.
That remark is unexpected today but historically common. Christianity did not allow a Christian to be a Jew at the same time. When you became a believer in Jesus, you stopped being a Jew. There were a number of forced conversions in Spain but after time, most Christians of Jewish ancestry were devout and loyal Christians but the Church had doubts. A special department, the Inquisition was established to investigate the faith of Christians. Any Jewish practice could mean torture or death. Using olive oil instead of pig lard could bring you before Inquisition. Jews are cursed Christ-killers was the teaching of Christianity for most of its existence. Arielle and Jeff would have been brought before the Inquisition and likely burned at the auto-da-fe for their Jewishness.
@@stephenfisher3721 Well, in good faith, it is wise to observe the Roman government’s involvement in creating Catholicism.
Blaming “Christians” is, in my opinion, disingenuous. Christians are missionaries/martyrs, because we know that this realm is a place of death. We are the Children of Life (Jesus Christ).💯 Christianity was Not spread by the sword. Of course, haters of Christ have their victimhood. The reality being, Jesus Christ freed them from victimhood.😅❤️
@@stephenfisher3721You are right… it was a dark time in human history.
None of it was scriptural.. meaning, nothing that the ‘church’ did during the Inquisition was informed by the truth of God. It was all the powerbrokers of the establishment, the political powers of Spain in the Roman Catholic Church of the time.
On a personal note:
My own great grandmother was born into a Jewish home, and grew up to be a believer in Jesus as Messiah. She married a Christian gentile and raised nine Christian children, who knew their Jewish roots. My grandmother was her youngest daughter, and she married a reprobate who pretended to be a Christian. My mother suffered a lot at his hands, but taught me, her youngest daughter, to love the LORD with all my heart, soul, mind and strength, and to cling fast to His Scriptures as the only truth.
I love hearing that there are so many other Jewish people coming to faith in God’s Messiah, and receiving full forgiveness for their sins and new life in His Spirit.
catholics are not Christians but a man made cult that follows roman tradition and pagan idolatry from babylon
Why you reject the Sabbath?
God tell REMEMBER on Exodus20v8
Because they follow the New Testament and Jesus Christ is the end of the law to all that believe. That's why it's called the NEW Testament.

Not come destroy the law(2 times) T'ill heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle...Verse 19-20;If you break ONE of the LEAST COMMANDMENTS or teach men so...
You misinterpret the meaning of FULFILL: bring to completion or reality; achieve or realize (something desired, promised, or predicted), carry out (a task, duty, or role) as required, pledged, or expected. Jesus, because is perfect, he are the perfect sacrifice, to take our place. Because we ALL sinned. He don't remove HIS laws, he pay our finds (death). If the laws was remove, their no transgressions (sins are no more sins). Jesus said I forgive you sin no more...The commandments is not obsolete.
Matthew 5:13-20 King James Version
13 Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men.
14 Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid.
15 Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house.
16 Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.
17 Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil.
18 For verily I say unto you, TILL heaven and earth PASS, ONE JOT OR ONE TITTLE shall in no wise PASS from the law, till all be fulfilled.
19 Whosoever therefore shall BREAK ONE of these LEAST COMMANDMENTS, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.
20 For I say unto you, That except your righteousness shall exceed the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, ye shall in no case enter into the kingdom of heaven.@@georgeo785

To my dear Jews,
please listen to Rabbi Tovia Singer and return to the truth of Tanakh.
I feel much different toward Arielle because she was born into it than a Jew who was not born a Messianic. I respect her as she is honoring her father and mother and continuing their belief. But I feel sorry for her that her parents have placed her in this weird mix of Judaism and Christianity. I am a Jew in a small town; the so-called Messianic congregations near me are attended by grafted-on Gentiles. Although they throw in a few Hebrew words or a tallit, their prayer services are bizarre and seem totally un-Jewish to me. What are the flags and Davidic dancing? The instrumental music with the electric guitar, keyboard, and drums on Shabbat would never be found in a traditional Jewish service but would be right at home in a contemporary Protestant Evangelical service. Poor Arielle, if she came to my town, would she hide her belief in Jesus and pray with the real Jews or join a bunch of Jewish wannabes in prayer service from the Twilight Zone?
Guardi, il problema non è la cultura, la liturgia etc. il vero problema è la salvezza eterna. Solo Cristo Gesù è il Salvatore.
Chi vuole essere salvato lo accolga come salvatore ed entri nella sua Chiesa.
READ MY COMMNENT BEFORE IS DELETED: LOL If you are Jew only. If Jesus really existed as a Rabbi in Jerusalem, He never stated that he was God, his followers did. He stated he was an anointed ( messiah) never said he was the son of Ben David messiah. That's way different. His followers stated other things about him. That's completely different. That's just an opinion (s) of his followers. Do you think an opinion is a fact? Nope.
If you are Jew, return to the Lord of Hosts of Israel after you read my comment.
Did you know that the prophets foretold a remnant of Jews who will be called "anointed ones" of Messiah of Israel collectively speaking or also called Holy Ones of Israel ? According to the OT or Hebrew Bible, it was God's purpose to have Israel as a Holy Nation to become the light to the Nations as what? Acts 13: 47,48 quoted from Isaiah 49:5,6 According to Torah, Isaiah and other prophets "Israel collectively speaking" would be the "anointed ones "ministers of Hashem (God) upon this earth. It is stated in the NT as well. isn't that ironic?
Think about it for a second, if you are Jew, you are voluntarily giving up your inherited natural rights to be part of this group. Just like Esau gave up his natural rights as firstborn son to become the progenitor of the nation of Israel as God's covenant people. What happened to Esau? Are you like Esau? Don't ever said that you were never warned by a Jew okay. I am also a Jew who knows the truth. I see my brother going astray it is my duty to show him the way. Leviticus 19
Isaiah 61:6-9
"But you will be called the LORD’s PRIESTS; they ( the gentiles) will speak of you as ministers of our God;
you will eat the wealth of the nations."In place of your shame, you will have a double portion;
in place of disgrace, they will rejoice over their share.So they will possess double in their land,and eternal joy will be theirs.and you will boast in their riches."
."For I the LORD love judgment, I hate robbery for burnt offering; and I will direct their work in truth, and I will make an everlasting covenant with them.And their seed ( DNA) shall be known among the Gentiles, and their offspring ( true origin ) among the people: all that see them shall acknowledge them, that they are the seed which the LORD hath blessed."
This Scripture was prophesied in Exodus 19:5,6 ; Daniel 7:18, 27 22 ; Daniel 2:44
In the NT , as Jewish thought was also believed in this coming kingdom not Church or spiritual Israel doctrine.
I will post them as a cross reference to prove my point. Read them please. In the 30AD-90AD, as Jewish thought and belief , Jews believe to be the "anointed ones of Israel" as a kingdom not as church etc. The Romans tainted and tampered their writings to fit their church model eventually. Paul never laid on hands on gentiles regarding the Holy Spirit or be baptized? why? because it was not for them. That's there was only a group Jews who were in charge of teaching with authority. (1Corinthians 1: 14-16 ) The Holy Spirit will come naturally to the descendant of Jacob , no need to lay hands or pray etc . Just like how it happened in Acts 2
Matthew 10:5,6 and Matthew 15:24
No wonder why Jesus only sent his disciples to the lost sheep of Israel. If he was the messiah to save the the world or gentiles why then he sent his disciples to the lost sheep of Israel ONLY?? is it a mere contradiction or maybe Jesus as a Rabbi knew that only natural Israel could receive the natural inheritance of the kingdom as he preached it to the Jews 100% . Luke 4:43 Paul believe that too. See below
"But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for his possession, so that you may proclaim the praises of the one who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light. 1Peter 2:9 quoted from Exodus 19:5,6
"Dear friends, I urge you as strangers and exiles to abstain from sinful desires that wage war against the soul."Conduct yourselves honorably among the Gentiles, so that when they slander you as evildoers, they will observe your good works and will glorify God on the day he visits." ( 1Peter 2:11,12 )
Peter called these people "exiles" Jews. and he compared them with the gentiles after they started learning Torah. Since at the time, there was no NT writings, because Peter is the one writing this letter to them.
"So when they had come together, they asked him, “Lord, are you restoring the kingdom to Israel at this time? ” (Acts1:6 )
On this text, Jesus did not respond them at all, why? because he was not the Messiah Ben David. If he was, he didn't have to deny or ignore the question but he will clarify that to their close followers. He was just a Rabbi. Nothing else. My point here on this text is that his followers were expecting a kingdom to be restored as promised to king David. It never happened in their time. They were not expecting a "church" my friends but a kingdom restored. They thought it was the end generation. As we know, their timeline was incorrect. They didn't have the revelation to know that.
This kingdom was quoted many times in the NT as their only hope. They believed to rule the nations ( this is the original call to Israel since they left Egypt as the firstborn son to God) and be priests to God to the nations. Revelation 5:10 and Revelation 20:1-6
"You are the sons ( Paul mentioned in plural not singular referring to those Jews anointed with the Holy Spirit according to the NT context in Acts 2 ) of the prophets and of the covenant that God made with your ancestors, saying to Abraham, And all the families of the earth will be blessed through your offspring."“God raised up his servant and sent him first to you to bless you by turning each of you from your evil ways.”" (Acts 3:26,27)
Yes, Paul knew that the descendants of Jacob will receive their inheritance not only to receive the Land but also the gift of the Holy Spirit as to be called sons of the Most High as sons of the prophets and royalty as Peter mentioned it. Jesus was not the only one to be called "son of God" per se. It was common knowledge among the Jews who knew the Tanakh or Hebrew Bible. So Paul, knew that the Jewish identity of the Jews was not to be "slaves " to the Romans or any other nations but instead to be a special possession to God to rule and be priests according the original covenant.
"They are Israelites, ( not gentiles) and to them belong the adoption, the glory, the covenants, the giving of the law, the temple service, and the promises" .That is, it is not the children by physical descent who are God’s children, but the children of the promise are considered to be the offspring." For this is the statement of the promise: At this time I will come, and Sarah will have a son. ( Isaac) " Romans 9:5,8,9
In summary, Paul is making a point on this whole chapter of Roman 9 that Jacob through Isaac is the promise son of Abraham to receive the inheritance of the kingdom of God on earth not Ishmael or Esau who were also sons of Abraham. Paul was making an emphasis to those Jews who did not know their inheritance or had any knowledge of the truth of the Tanakh. That's why Paul stated that is not through physical descent but through a promise to Abraham. Since Esau and Ishmael were physically descended from Abraham.
The sons of Ishmael and Esau represented "slavery " and the sons of Sarah represented the blessings of the kingdom of Hashem.
Therefore, if you are Jews, please reconsider my biblical citations to heart. There is only one chance to repent and return to the Lord of Hosts. Do not be misled by gentile teachings. They don't want you to know the truth about your natural inheritance.
"As it is written: I have loved Jacob, but I have hated Esau." Romans 9:13
