Our Mission
-
To effectively communicate the message of Jesus the Messiah to the Jewish people.
-
To establish a model Messianic synagogue which will be a home for Jewish and Gentile followers of Jesus the Messiah, and will thus serve as a pattern and a training ground for Messianic synagogues elsewhere in the world.
-
To develop and distribute materials for reaching, discipling and training Jewish people.
-
To train believers in Jesus in communicating their faith sensitively to Jewish people.
-
To educate believers in discovering the richness of the Jewish roots and connections of their Christian faith.
-
To promote, within the church, a greater understanding of the Jewish people.
-
To combat the evils of anti-Semitism.
We have much to learn and unlearn
Rather than working from our fixed Western presuppositions, an open attitude to investigation and Biblical research allows the Jewish foundation and framework to shine a new and corrective light on translation and interpretation errors. Truth can afford to be naked; it can afford to be held under the light; it will hold up under investigation. We have new lessons to learn and erroneous ones to unlearn.
