Jews & Evangelicals: Shared Biblical Values

Opportunities To Cooperate

Orthodox Jews (Not Christians!) Following RibꞋi Yᵊho•shuꞋa As Mâ•shiꞋakh

Paqid Yirmeyahu (Paqid 16, the Netzarim)

2004.11.24 – We invite you to work with the rest of the world in mutual tolerance of each other's beliefs to uphold the moral and social values of Tor•âhꞋ in a world increasingly spiraling downward in Islamic terrorism, moral decadence, hedonism, hate-mongering, slander and Sâ•tânꞋic propagandizing.

We're Orthodox Jews and non-Jews around the world who, meticulously within the guidelines of Ha•lâkh•âhꞋ, follow historical RibꞋi Yᵊho•shuꞋa – the first-century Jew identified in the Διαθηκη Καινη (NT) as a Pᵊrush•iꞋ RibꞋi who was born in Beit LëkhꞋëm – as the Mâ•shiꞋakh. This brings out a seething hatred in some – not all – Jews, who demonize, slander and blatantly lie about us. We are the only true bridge for Bible – Ta•na"khꞋ-believing Christians and Ta•na"khꞋ-believing Jews to rally together in unity following the Almighty of Tor•âhꞋ and Yi•sᵊr•â•eilꞋ. (Other efforts conceal intrinsic and irreconcilable differences by simply stifling respectful discussion – and progress.) We promote this coming together by focusing on Tor•âhꞋ-value issues that we share.

The Media

For worse, media – especially television shows and cable news – sets the agenda and values in the modern public arenas around the world. Look how many of the issues below have the media at their core. This is where we need to start: organizing to insist that media instill better instead of worse, paying attention – monitoring and quoting the media and protesting where and in a way that begins to mend the world. As RibꞋi Yᵊho•shuꞋa emphasized: salt that doesn't go vapid. The Almighty of Yi•sᵊr•â•eilꞋ works through His people. When you pray, row for shore. If we don't organize to help each other in these issues in which we can agree, each of us in our own local area, then our oppressors, who have already organized against Ta•na"khꞋ-believers and declared war on us, will continue to oppress us.

Ta•na"khꞋ-believers must unite, organize and coordinate letter-writing and petition campaigns to law-makers in your area, letter- and email-writing to cable news, TV and radio show networks and talk shows in your area, phoning-in to talk shows in your area, supporting and participating in demonstrations that promote Biblical positions. Further, working together has the added plus of providing a framework within which Ta•na"khꞋ-believers can learn to better understand, and draw closer to, one another.

Those who oppress Ta•na"khꞋ-believers are hedonists, motivated by money. Therefore, it's essential that we hit the anti-Ta•na"khꞋ crowd in the wallet; boycotting TV shows that desensitize and erode Biblical values / morals and, even more importantly, boycotting the products of those who bankroll those TV shows. If you can think of other (legal) ways, send us your ideas.

Categories of Anti- Media Agendas

Defeat Islamic terrorism and their propagandizing in the media,
Reverse both abortion and Muslim child-sacrifice (shields) infanticide and their propagandizing in the media,
Promote Umbilical Stem Cell Research instead of Embryonic Stem Cell Research,
Reverse the desensitizing propaganda in the media of perverse homosexual practices and,
Defeat slander, deception, hate-mongering and relativism that equates aggressor-predators (attackers) with prey-victims and evil with good; all masquerading as “free speech,”
Reverse anti-Israel propagandizing and miso-Judaismin the media,
Reverse gratuitous violence in TV, movies & sports,
Reverse the avalanche of Jews who are abandoning Biblical morals & values
Reverse the raw hedonism (materialism) of our cultures to instill healthier family values
Reverse the popular anti-Biblical attempts to suppress the individual's right to practice Biblical values,

We’re working out the last details in opening a multi-tiered Nᵊtzâr•imꞋ forum within which all Ta•na"khꞋ believers are encouraged to work together in the service of the Almighty of Yi•sᵊr•â•eilꞋ; in each of these areas and other issues that may come to Light. We’ll be releasing the details of the forum soon.

Don't assume we believe Christian doctrines "like you". We don't!

Historical Discrepancies in Christian Beliefs

I'm forced to stress this because thousands continue to make this mistake. To work with us, you need to know a bit about us. I'm a well documented Yi•sᵊr•â•eilꞋi citizen recognized both by Yi•sᵊr•â•eilꞋ and the Rabbinate as an Orthodox Jew. I'm a member in good standing of the Yemenite Orthodox synagogue (Beit ha-kᵊnësꞋët Mo•rëshꞋët Âv•otꞋ – Yad Nâ•âm•iꞋ) in my neighborhood here in Ra•a•nanꞋâ(h), Yi•sᵊr•â•eilꞋ. Assuming that we embrace Christian doctrines would be an error.

Both because we follow the historical, rather than popular, perception of Pharisaic RibꞋi Yᵊho•shuꞋa (vid. The Conflict of the Church and the Synagogue, A Study in the Origins of Anti-Semitism and the description of Pᵊrush•imꞋ in Dead Sea Scroll (4Q) MMT (Mi•qᵊtz•atꞋ Ma•as•ëh′ ha-Tor•âh′)) and because we are Orthodox Jews, it is a mistake, or slander, to assume that we are Christians. We're Orthodox Jews, not Christians. We don't subscribe Hellenist Roman doctrines all of which post-date 135 C.E.; Roman gentile doctrines that displaced original teachings later – sometimes centuries later. RibꞋi Yᵊho•shuꞋa was innocent of all Christians doctrines that were falsely ascribed to him centuries after the fact. Tor•âhꞋ demands that the reputation of this historically innocent Tor•âhꞋ-teaching Pᵊrush•iꞋ RibꞋi Jew be restored, requiring that the true counterfeit and false ~~Christ~~ of the 2^nd-4^th century Hellenist Romans be exposed. This causes some – not all – Christians to demonize and slander us.

Don't Assume This Jew Is Ignorant of Christian Spirituality!

Former Baptist Minister: Deep Understanding of Christian Doctrines & History

I'm forced to stress this because thousands continue to make this mistake. I'm a former Baptist minister who converted to follow Tor•âhꞋ based on reason, not romance or whim. I translated the entire Διαθηκη Καινη (NT) from ALL of the earliest extant manuscripts up through the 4^th century C.E. – and I'm the one who wrote the book on it: The Netzarim Reconstruction of Hebrew Ma•ti•tᵊyâhꞋu (NHM). It was as a result of this extensive research that I converted (Orthodox) to Judaism and immigrated to Yi•sᵊr•â•eilꞋ under Yi•sᵊr•â•eilꞋ's Law of Return. So, I'm intimately familiar with Christianity at a depth that no Christian seminarian or "Dr. of Divinity" approaches. Questioning each other and learning is to be encouraged. I've found answers to the myriad of questions and contradictions that plague Christians. But we are tolerant of Christians (which includes ‘Messianics’) as well as mainstream non-Orthodox Jews; and we respect your right to your beliefs in not recognizing RibꞋi Yᵊho•shuꞋa as the Mâ•shiꞋakh. Contrary to Christian assertions, such beliefs are irrelevant to obtaining a place in hâ-Ōlâm ha-bâ, which is dependent, instead, upon doing one’s utmost to keep Tor•âhꞋ. We believe in intelligent and respectful discourse, not slander and hate-mongering.

Invitation

Pick one or more of the media agendas above, let us hear from you and work with us to promote Biblical values; and, if you're amenable, open a learning dialogue with us in the process to explore with us the only Way that can effectively retrieve estranged Jews back to Tor•âhꞋ, and in the same process bring non-Jews and Jews together, in the messianic age to serve the Almighty of Yi•sᵊr•â•eilꞋ – the Way of truth, the reality of documented historical truth. (If you can think of another Tor•âhꞋ value that's currently a hot issue let us know so we can work together on that too.)
