The New Birth, Titus 3:5


“Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration (G3824, new birth), and renewing of the Holy Ghost;”  Titus 3:5 

Could be translated “… by the washing of the new birth…”

G3824  παλιγγενεσία  paliggenesia
Thayer Definition:
1) new birth, reproduction, renewal, recreation, regeneration
1a) hence renovation, regeneration, the production of a new life consecrated to God, a radical change of mind for the better. The word often used to denote the restoration of a thing to its pristine state, its renovation, as a renewal or restoration of life after death

Pulpit Minisitry in the Old Covenant


“And Ezra the scribe stood upon a pulpit of wood, which they had made for the purpose; and beside him stood Mattithiah, and Shema, and Anaiah, and Urijah, and Hilkiah, and Maaseiah, on his right hand; and on his left hand, Pedaiah, and Mishael, and Malchiah, and Hashum, and Hashbadana, Zechariah, and Meshullam. 5  And Ezra opened the book in the sight of all the people; (for he was above all the people;) and when he opened it, all the people stood up: 6  And Ezra blessed the LORD, the great God. And all the people answered, Amen, Amen, with lifting up their hands: and they bowed their heads, and worshipped the LORD with their faces to the ground. 7  Also Jeshua, and Bani, and Sherebiah, Jamin, Akkub, Shabbethai, Hodijah, Maaseiah, Kelita, Azariah, Jozabad, Hanan, Pelaiah, and the Levites, caused the people to understand the law: and the people stood in their place. 8  So they read in the book in the law of God distinctly, and gave the sense, and caused them to understand the reading. 9  And Nehemiah, which is the Tirshatha, and Ezra the priest the scribe, and the Levites that taught the people, said unto all the people, This day is holy unto the LORD your God; mourn not, nor weep. For all the people wept, when they heard the words of the law.”   Nehemiah 8:4-9

Jehovah is a Man of War!

“The LORD (Jehovah-Hebrew) [is] a man of war: the LORD [is] his name.” Exodus 15:3
Jehovah is a man. He is a man of war.

“And Enoch also, the seventh from Adam, prophesied of these, saying, Behold, the Lord (MarYah –Jehovah-Aramaic) cometh with ten thousands of his saints, 15 To execute judgment upon all, and to convince all that are ungodly among them of all their ungodly deeds which they have ungodly committed, and of all their hard [speeches] which ungodly sinners have spoken against him.” Jude 1:14-15

“Behold, the day of the LORD (Jehovah-Hebrew) cometh, and thy spoil shall be divided in the midst of thee. 2 For I will gather all nations against Jerusalem to battle; and the city shall be taken, and the houses rifled, and the women ravished; and half of the city shall go forth into captivity, and the residue of the people shall not be cut off from the city. 3 Then shall the LORD go forth, and fight against those nations, as when he fought in the day of battle. 4 And his feet shall stand in that day upon the mount of Olives, which [is] before Jerusalem on the east, and the mount of Olives shall cleave in the midst thereof toward the east and toward the west, [and there shall be] a very great valley; and half of the mountain shall remove toward the north, and half of it toward the south. 5 And ye shall flee [to] the valley of the mountains; for the valley of the mountains shall reach unto Azal: yea, ye shall flee, like as ye fled from before the earthquake in the days of Uzziah king of Judah: and the LORD my God shall come, [and] all the saints with thee.” Zechariah 14:1-5

“And this shall be the plague wherewith the LORD will smite all the people that have fought against Jerusalem; Their flesh shall consume away while they stand upon their feet, and their eyes shall consume away in their holes, and their tongue shall consume away in their mouth.” Zechariah 14:12

Pending Execution of an Iranian Pastor

** NEWS FLASH **


There is an urgent plea for us to condemn and protest against the pending execution of an Iranian Pastor who is a leader among house churches there. I feel we must do our part. I'm sure you would want others to do the same. Don't be guilty of committing the sin of silence.  I have already made calls to my Senators and also to the Sec of State, and to the Sec of State - Iranian Policy Dept:

You can also call.  To save you time here are some numbers:

US Secretary of State
Secretary Hillary Clinton  202-647-5291

African-American Churches and Conference

 Dear Friends,

As Sister Klein and I travel from church to church and conference to conference, we are treated very, very well in African-American churches. Some weeks ago, we spoke at a pastor's conference in Detroit. We were the only whites there. We ministered for maybe an hour. We were very well received!

I pray that some day all churches will be both African-American and white.

I also pray that as others come to white churches they are treated very well!

Mat 5:43 Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and hate thine enemy.

Mat 19:19   Honour thy father and [thy] mother: and, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.



Mat 22:39   And the second [is] like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.



Mar 12:31   And the second [is] like, [namely] this, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. There is none other commandment greater than these.



Rom 13:9   For this, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not kill, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness, Thou shalt not covet; and if [there be] any other commandment, it is briefly comprehended in this saying, namely, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.     

Gal 5:14   For all the law is fulfilled in one word, [even] in this; Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.

Jam 2:8   If ye fulfil the royal law according to the scripture, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself, ye do well:

 Who is your neighbor? Everyone who has a need is your neighbor. Who doesn't have a need? Right. Everyone is your neighbor? YOU are to love everyone!

What Jews Should Know About the New Testament

This title and article is found in 'Biblical Archaeology Review', March/April 2012. The article is written by Amy-Jill Levine, a professor at Vanderbilt Divinity School. She is a popular Jewish writer. She makes money as Christians buy her writings.

In this article, she brings out the fact that the first reference to a 'rabbi' is found in the New Testament. She states Jesus was the first recorded 'rabbi'.

198,000 Holocaust Survivors Living in Israel

Hello Friends,

"There are still 198,000 Holocaust survivors living in Israel, but every hour another one of them dies. In 20 years’ time, no eye witness to that horrific chapter in human history will be left."

These words are from an article found at:
 http://www.israeltoday.co.il/tabid/178/nid/23190/language/en-US/Default.aspx?utm_source=newsletter&utm_medium=email&utm_content=Every%20hour%20another%20Holocaust%20survivor%20dies%20|%20Every%20hour%20another%20Holocaust%20survivor%20dies&utm_campaign=daily%20newsletter%20email%20-%2020120416

Sister Klein and I heard a Holocaust survivor speak at the Holocaust museum in Chicago two Fridays ago. Afterwards, I spoke with her and gave her a Bible tract (UPCI). Please pray for Ida. She watched her Mom commit suicide.

In Jesus,
Brother Klein

Rabbis Who Believe in Jesus

"No Jew who understands even one line of Gemara would ever believe in Jesus." Amos Wittenberg
http://www.shalom.org.uk/public/index.html
Is it true that only ignorant, unlearned and vulnerable Jews believe in Jesus? These pages feature the stories of devout rabbis who were steeped in Judaism from their earliest days and were hostile to the message of Jesus. When each of them examined the evidence for Jesus they found it compelling and, in spite of rejection and personal hardship, they followed the truth.
Max Wertheimer

Why is the Oral Law not Acceptable?

1. According to Judaism the Oral Law was give by G-d to be repeated from generation to generation orally, so to write it down is sin!

2. The assembly of Israelites was given the Written Law. They were commanded to keep it. There isn’t a Biblical record of the giving of the Oral Law. Why not only orally repeat the Written Law from generation to generation and not write it down?

3. The Mishnah, Talmud, etc. as the written Oral Law never state “G-d commanded”, “G-d said”, etc. The writings found in the Oral Law state “Rabbi ____ said”. G-d is never found to be quoted with His identity as in the Written Law.

Which Bible Should You Use???? http://atseminary.weebly.com/book-recently-printed.html

 

Anti-semitism

 The term 'anti-semitism' was coined in 1879 by a German journalist Wilhelm Marr to designate anti-Jewish campaigns then appearing throughout Europe. Since that time, the term has been universally applied to any form of behavior or literature which evidences hostility toward the Jews.

What do Martin Luther and Adolf Hitler have in Common?

Martin Luther, 1483-1546 A.D.
"Set Jewish synagogues on fire for the honor of God. God will see we are Christians when we get rid of the Jews. Likewise homes should be destroyed; they should be put in a stable; they are not heirs of promises of God and deserve to die. Deprive them of all prayer shawls, prayer books and communication, revoke all passports, stop them from doing all business, everything they possess we believe they stole and robbed from us. They do not have God's blessings, drive them out of the country ... get rid of them." 
Martin Luther preached his last sermon avidly against the Jews and died four days later.  
In 1924 at a Christian gathering in Berlin, Adolf Hitler, a professed Christian, stood before thousands of Christians, and with a standing ovation said:
"I believe that today I am acting in accordance with the will of Almighty God. As I announce the most important work that Christians could undertake and that is to be against the Jews and get rid of them once and for all. We are doing the work of the Lord and let's get on with it." Hitler stated, "Martin Luther has been the greatest encouragement of my life. Luther was a great man. He was a giant. Within one blow he heralded the coming of the new dawn and the new age. He saw clearly that the Jews need to be destroyed and we're only beginning to see that we need to carry this work on."

What Ancient Rabbis Write about "The Messiah"

 Babylonian Talmud: "The Messiah --what is his name?...The Rabbis say, The Leper Scholar, as it is said, `surely he has borne our griefs and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him a leper, smitten of God and afflicted...'" (Sanhedrin 98b)

Midrash Ruth Rabbah: "Another explanation (of Ruth ii.14): -- He is speaking of king Messiah; `Come hither,' draw near to the throne; `and eat of the bread,' that is, the bread of the kingdom; `and dip thy morsel in the vinegar,' this refers to his chastisements, as it is said, `But he was wounded for our transgressions, bruised for our iniquities'"

Targum Jonathan: "Behold my servant Messiah shall prosper; he shall be high and increase and be exceedingly strong..."

Zohar: "`He was wounded for our transgressions,' etc....There is in the Garden of Eden a palace called the Palace of the Sons of Sickness; this palace the Messiah then enters, and summons every sickness, every pain, and every chastisement of Israel; they all come and rest upon him. And were it not that he had thus lightened them off Israel and taken them upon himself, there had been no man able to bear Israel's chastisements for the transgression of the law: and this is that which is written, `Surely our sicknesses he hath carried.'"

Rabbi Moses Maimonides: "What is the manner of Messiah's advent....there shall rise up one of whom none have known before, and signs and wonders which they shall see performed by him will be the proofs of his true origin; for the Almighty, where he declares to us his mind upon this matter, says, `Behold a man whose name is the Branch, and he shall branch forth out of his place' (Zech. 6:12). And Isaiah speaks similarly of the time when he shall appear, without father or mother or family being known, He came up as a sucker before him, and as a root out of dry earth, etc....in the words of Isaiah, when describing the manner in which kings will harken to him, At him kings will shut their mouth; for that which had not been told them have they seen, and that which they had not heard they have perceived." (From the Letter to the South (Yemen), quoted in The Fifty-third Chapter of Isaiah According to the Jewish Interpreters, Ktav Publishing House, 1969, Volume 2, pages 374-5)

Rabbi Mosheh Kohen Ibn Crispin: This rabbi described those who interpret Isaiah 53 as referring to Israel as those: "having forsaken the knowledge of our Teachers, and inclined after the `stubbornness of their own hearts,' and of their own opinion, I am pleased to interpret it, in accordance with the teaching of our Rabbis, of the King Messiah....This prophecy was delivered by Isaiah at the divine command for the purpose of making known to us something about the nature of the future Messiah, who is to come and deliver Israel, and his life from the day when he arrives at discretion until his advent as a redeemer, in order that if anyone should arise claiming to be himself the Messiah, we may reflect, and look to see whether we can observe in him any resemblance to the traits described here; if there is any such resemblance, then we may believe that he is the Messiah our righteousness; but if not, we cannot do so." (From his commentary on Isaiah, quoted in The Fifty-third Chapter of Isaiah According to the Jewish Interpreters, Ktav Publishing House, 1969, Volume 2, pages 99-114.)

Are Some Cajuns Jews?

Hello Friends,

 Sister Klein who is Jewish on both sides grew-up as a Cajun. She showed me this writing. There are more articles available.

Cajun or Jewish?
Sandra DeVlin
July 29, 2004 Thursday Final Edition
Jackie Bourque is in the eye of a whirlwind of mixed emotions since discovering she and thousands of others in Atlantic Canada may have been misled over many centuries about their Acadian heritage.
“I had been led to believe I was a Cajun girl and that we had to maintain our French … and not mix with the English,” says the Bathurst, N.B. native who is currently living in Quebec.
“It took me several weeks to actually accept that I am Jewish more than I am Acadian,” says Jackie, who believes she has stumbled upon a little-known or little-discussed fact: that many of the familiar Acadian surnames are more likely of Jewish origin than of French.
“People will not generally accept this,” she says, “because they have been brainwashed.”

EVIDENCE CLINCHED IT
Jackie was finally convinced by the evidence of “a Semitic stain,” a birthmark common among Acadians and which proponents claim identifies them with their Sephardic Crypto-Jewish ancestors who fled to southern France from Spain during the Inquisition (1478-808).
The deal for the Jews fleeing to France was “change your name and convert” to the Roman Catholic faith, says Jackie.
Our so-called French ancestors who immigrated here during the 17th and 18th centuries have surnames found among census of Jews who were condemned and sought by the Inquisition, she claims.
NOTABLE NAMES
Bourque is one, as is LeBlanc, Bourgeois, Landry, Mallet, Doucet, Vienneau, Lamarche and many more.
“When the person has the name and the ‘stain’ to boot, then how can they deny their identity?” says Jackie, who has the birthmark.
“I’ve been doing my own personal research with all these names, just among the people I meet, or neighbours and, definitely, they all have either the pinkish dots in the neck at the hairline, or some browning/blackish splat on their back.
“Others have it at the waistline. I have also found some have it on their arm at the shoulder level.
“To prove my point, when I find out their names, I immediately tell them about the Semitic stain, otherwise, they could say, ‘Ah, you’re just making this up.’ “
Jackie refers us to French Sephard-im, one online source that backs this theory, located at www.geocities.com/sephardim2003/
For more information contact: Jackie Bourque, 110-110 de Navarre, St. Lambert, QC J4S 1R6; telephone: (450) 923-3579; e-mail: jackie.bourque @sympatico.ca.

Liberal Judaism's 'the One'

Hello Students,

 Why does the New International Version and the New King James Version add the word ‘One’ over 200 times? Why have these perversions in some verses removed the Words "God" and "Lord/LORD"?
                                    JSLI Statement of Jewish Faith

  1. We believe that the Creator is the One.
  2. We believe that there are many paths to the Creator and that all paths lead to the One.
  3. We believe with perfect faith that the One, is not a body, is free from all the properties of matter, and has not any form whatever.                                                           The textbook I wrote Which Bible Should You Use???? has the answer!

“And he preached in the synagogues of Galilee.”                                          Luke 4:44

1 Kings 19:19-21


“So he departed thence, and found Elisha the son of Shaphat, who was plowing with twelve yoke of oxen before him, and he with the twelfth: and Elijah passed by him, and cast his mantle upon him. 20 And he left the oxen, and ran after Elijah, and said, Let me, I pray thee, kiss my father and my mother, and then I will follow thee. And he said unto him, Go back again: for what have I done to thee? 21 And he returned back from him, and took a yoke of oxen, and slew them, and boiled their flesh with the instruments of the oxen, and gave unto the people, and they did eat. Then he arose, and went after Elijah, and ministered unto him.”1 Kings 19:19-21 KJV

Mass N.T. Mailings in Israel Causes Orthodox Postal Delievers to Not Deliever

"A controversy was brewing this week when a handful of postmen from the Ramat Gan suburb of Tel Aviv refused to deliver packages containing the New Testament."

"It is in fact perfectly legal in Israel to share one's faith with others unsolicited, just as different Orthodox Jewish groups often do at street corners around the country. What is illegal is offering monetary incentives for conversion or proselytizing to minors."
