A crash course in Jewish evangelism, this series of articles will help you understand Jewish diversity and sensitivities and how to draw from the Old and New Testaments in outreach.
The Hard Truth about Antisemitism
Racism against Jewish people is so prevalent, it has its own name.
Believe it or not, antisemitism – irrational and often violent hatred for the Jewish people – is at its highest in decades. How should we respond?
THE BIBLICAL FEASTS
“What are the feasts and do they matter for believers?”
In the Old Testament, God appointed feasts for the Jewish people to keep and remember. In the New Testament we see a strong connection to many of these yearly events. Learning about them gives extra background to understand the Scriptures and helps us connect with Jewish people around us.

Absolutely! Jesus said, “…Believe in God, believe also in Me. …I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father except through Me” (John 14:1, 6). Jesus’ sacrifice on Calvary annulled the sacrificial system and opened salvation to all who confess that Jesus is the Son of God. Just like Gentiles, it is only through belief in the Jewish Messiah that the Jewish people can be saved.

Life in Messiah believes the Law of Moses (Mosaic Covenant) is good and holy (Romans 7:12). The Law was instituted by God and given to the nation of Israel. But the Law of Moses was a temporary and conditional covenant. Now, the Messiah, Jesus of Nazareth, has instituted a New Covenant. Today, believers are no longer subject to the Law of Moses. Believers have the freedom to celebrate as much or as little of the Law as they would like, but believers are not obligated to keep or adhere to any aspects of the Law of Moses. To learn more about our position, listen to our podcast titled “Distinctions Between the Covenants.”

Life in Messiah rejects the doctrine of replacement theology (supersessionism). We believe that God is faithful to all of His promises, and that includes those made to the Jewish people concerning their land and their future.
