Purpose
Mission statement
Equipping the Body
By delivering the "Pure Word" of Jesus (Yeshua) with power and clarity that transforms the lives of His people into His own image.
By communicating, with simplicity and authenticity, the prophetic synergies between the Old and New Testaments, building one's faith.
By teaching the Biblical Jewish roots of Christianity to empower and enlighten the believer's walk.
By preaching with revelation that ignites a greater comprehension of God's character.
By calling God's people into true repentance so that they may walk in greater union with Him and bear much fruit!
Mobilizing the Church
To take hold of her upward calling and to be conformed into the image of Messiah (Philippians 3:12, Romans 8:29).
To recognize and carryout her role as a witness to the Jewish people (Romans 11:11); thus accelerating the return of Jesus (Yeshua).
To be all God intended; by equipping, compelling, and pouring into the lives of Pastors and leaders around the world.
Evangelizing the World
Taking the redemptive, life transforming "Good News" to the lost, with signs and wonders following.
Taking Rabbi Schneider's radical testimony of hope, of destiny, of one who can relate to rejection; to those who are hurting and hopeless.
Taking the miracle message of a Jewish carpenter turned Savior to the Nations through television, internet broadcasts, and "on the ground" evangelistic crusades.
Taking Rabbi Schneider's unique insights of the Old and New Testaments combined with his compassion, to the lost; creating a "mighty weapon" in the hands of God around the world.
Preparing the Bride : Revelation 22:17-20
Our hope and our prayer is that the Lord will use Discovering The Jewish Jesus to prepare His "Bride" for His return.
17 The Spirit and the bride say, "Come."
"Come quickly Lord Jesus"
20 "Yes, I am coming quickly."
Statement of faith
The verbal inspiration of the Holy Scriptures as originally given;
We believe that there is one God who has manifested Himself multidimensionally as Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
The incarnation and virgin birth of the Son of God;
The fact that all men have sinned and consequently must be regenerated by the working of God's grace;
The redemption of man by the vicarious death of Yeshua (The Lord Jesus) on the cross;
Justification by faith;
The sanctifying work of the Holy Spirit in the believer, producing holiness of life and power for service;
Practical faith in the sufficiency of Yeshua (The Lord Jesus) for spiritual, temporal and physical needs;
The purifying hope of the Lord's imminent return; and
The urgency of preaching the gospel to all mankind, that men may be saved from eternal judgment.
Central to the LORD's plan is Israel and the Jewish people. Romans 11:11 explains that the Gentile believer has been chosen by God to bring the witness of the LORD to the Jewish people. As this message of Yeshua is brought back to, and received by, the Jewish people, they will say, "Baruch Haba B'Shem Adonai" - "Blessed is He who comes in the Name of the LORD!" and in so doing, usher in Yeshua's return (Matthew 23:39).
Through understanding the Old Testament and its prophetic nature, with Yeshua as its fulfillment, the viewer's faith is strengthened, increased relationship and intimacy with the LORD is discovered, and an end-times vision of life is crystallized. "Discovering The Jewish Jesus" is an end-times ministry, strengthening the church and calling her to be a readied bride for the return of the Bridegroom, Yeshua Ha Mashiach (Jesus The Messiah).
