Shalom and Welcome to Jewish Heritage Revival.

We are a ministry with the following mission:

We have many new developments to share with you our readership.

Our purpose is one of unification, as our banner indicates. The Congregation of God is one body of believers (Jewish and non-Jewish) with its heritage found through the nation of Israel...the Jewish people, whom together comprise the commonwealth of Israel.  Unfortunately, throughout its history, the church as it is known today has walked away from its very own Jewish roots and created its own "heritage".  Because of this separation, Messiah is unrecognizable to His own people. 

It has become an institution divided. Hundreds of doctrines, creating hundreds of different denominations leading to many teachings with one thing in common.  None include its rich heritage, found within the documented history of Abraham, his children and the instructions (Torah) given by God to them.

Imagine one body united, without division.  Both Jewish believer and non-Jewish believer united, with the sole purpose of being what God had intended His people to be...

ONE VOICE, UNIFIED WITH THE PURPOSE OF BRINGING THE WORLD TO REDEMPTION THROUGH ISRAEL'S MESSIAH AND HIS ATONEMENT FOR US.

In order to express God's purpose for believers, we offer articles that will address various topics related to the true heritage of the church. We will offer articles that offer seasonal perspective as well as guest contributors, further emphasizing that our purpose is supported by others within the Body of Messiah.

Our journey will take us through God's Feasts, displaying the significance of Yeshua (Jesus), our Messiah for everyone - believer and non-believer, Jewish and non-Jewish . In addition, we will provide additional articles related to our purpose of one body, offering instruction, insight and guidance and therefore establishing the authenticity that Yeshua is the Messiah of Israel. Many of our articles will challenge the status quo and tradition as it is known today, whether it be in the synagogue or the church.

We will also challenge such things as anti-semitism throughout Church history (and in some instances, still present within the Church today) and "replacement theology". When we get back to the roots of our faith and heritage, our primary focus should be towards our Creator...the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. Our way is through our Messiah. As stated in Yochanan's (John's) Gospel by our Messiah:

"Yeshua said, "I AM the Way -- and the Truth and the Life; no one comes to the Father except through me.  Because you have known me, you will also know my Father; from now on, you do know him -- in fact, you have seen him." Yochanan 14:6 - 7

We will look at what He said, did and taught.  We will expand the Jewish thought and understanding of the time of our Messiah and apply proper context as it was meant.  By exploring the proper Hebraic understanding of God's Word and our Messiah, will lead to the proper understanding of His Word, and hopefully extinguish many of the false teachings within the church today.

“Go in through the narrow gate; for the gate that leads to destruction is wide and the road broad, and many travel it;  but it is a narrow gate and a hard road that leads to life, and only a few find it."  Matthew 7:13 - 14 

Many consider this passage to be directed towards unbelievers.  Imagine that this passage is also directed towards believers.  What if the path  you are being taught (led), is the wide path that leads to destruction?  You don't want to be on that wide path.  Our Messiah is Jewish, lead a Jewish life according to Torah and taught according to Torah.   Don't you think you should know more about your own origin, considering His instruction...

Follow Me. 

Keep checking back for new articles. Even though the revelations are not new and have been in God's Word all the time, to the Church, the Jewish heritage is new.

Remember, Israel and the Jewish people are who received the Covenants from God. 

"Here, the days are coming," says ADONAI, "when I will make a new covenant with the house of Isra'el and with the house of Y'hudah.  It will not be like the covenant I made with their fathers on the day I took them by their hand and brought them out of the land of Egypt; because they, for their part, violated my covenant, even though I, for my part, was a husband to them," says ADONAI.  "For this is the covenant I will make with the house of Isra'el after those days," says ADONAI: "I will put my Torah within them and write it on their hearts; I will be their God, and they will be my people.  No longer will any of them teach his fellow community member or his brother, 'Know ADONAI'; for all will know me, from the least of them to the greatest; because I will forgive their wickedness and remember their sins no more."  Jeremiah 31:31 - 34

What are called the church today, made up primarily of non-Jewish believers, have been grafted into the vine (Israel, being the original branches of the vine) and along with Jewish believers in Messiah are joint heirs to all the promises God made with His people through His covenants.  

"But if some of the branches were broken off, and you - a wild olive - were grafted in among them and have become equal sharers in the rich root of the olive tree, then don't boast as if you were better than the branches! However, if you do boast, remember that you are not supporting the root, the root is supporting you. So you will say, "Branches were broken off so that I might be grafted in."  True, but so what? They were broken off because of their lack of trust. However, you keep your place only because of your trust. So don't be arrogant; on the contrary, be terrified!  For if God did not spare the natural branches, he certainly won't spare you!  So take a good look at God's kindness and his severity: on the one hand, severity toward those who fell off; but, on the other hand, God's kindness toward you - provided you maintain yourself in that kindness! Otherwise, you too will be cut off!"  Romans 11:17 - 22

The nations (goyim) that were once strangers to Israel have now become part of the commonwealth of Israel, through Messiah...not the other way around.  Many believe and teach that this covenant was made with the church, yet scripture does not support this erroneous teaching.  The origins of this belief are rooted in the history of the church, dating back 1700 years when the final and definitive event that lead to the permanent separation of the church and its foundation occurred...the council of Nicea.  From this point on, a wall of partition was again erected, but this time it was by the church.

As joint heirs, it is time to rightly acknowledge and honor your one and only God given heritage.  It is time to correct the grievous errors that have deprived many believers throughout the centuries the richness of this heritage.  Diminished by the impact of one page found in most Bibles that has forever disrupted the continuity of God's progressive revelation through Israel.  That page divides the Tenach and New Covenant writings and simply says "New Testament".

"I am speaking the truth - as one who belongs to the Messiah, I do not lie; and also bearing witness is my conscience, governed by the Ruach HaKodesh:  my grief is so great, the pain in my heart so constant,  that I could wish myself actually under God's curse and separated from the Messiah, if it would help my brothers, my own flesh and blood,  the people of Isra'el! They were made God's children, the Sh'khinah has been with them, the covenants are theirs, likewise the giving of the Torah, the Temple service and the promises;  the Patriarchs are theirs; and from them, as far as his physical descent is concerned, came the Messiah, who is over all. Praised be ADONAI for ever! Amen." Romans 9:1 - 5

" A song of ascents. By David: Oh, how good, how pleasant it is for brothers to live together in harmony. It is like fragrant oil on the head that runs down over the beard, over the beard of Aharon, and flows down on the collar of his robes. It is like the dew of Hermon that settles on the mountains of Tziyon. For it was there that ADONAI ordained the blessing of everlasting life." Psalm 133:1 - 3

This is a very Jewish story, yet through such doctrines as Dual Covenant theology, the Jewish people are ignored, with the belief that Yeshua isn't required for Jewish people...they are part of the Abrahamic covenant and the non-Jewish believers are part of the New Covenant.  This tragic teaching exists today.  To believe in Yeshua makes you no less Jewish then if you didn't believe in Him.  He is the Jewish Messiah promised throughout the scriptures given through Israel.
