How Israeli Messianics Respond
To Those Challenging Their Faith

Israel Today Staff — A couple of months ago, the virulently anti-missionary group Yad L’Achim began publishing a new glossy magazine targeting Israel’s Messianic community. Believers across the country were surprised to find the first issues of “The Seekers” delivered to their private mail boxes.

The magazine sought to paint the Messianic community as a den of unrighteousness based upon belief in a false messiah, with the apparent hope that some from within the Messianic community would come running to Yad L’Achim in search of a way out.

In the aftermath of this bizarre phenomenon, the Israeli Internet evangelism movement One For Israel began producing humorous video responses to various of the Yad L’Achim claims against the Messianic faith and movement.

The videos have been a huge hit on the Israeli Messianic scene, and have no doubt been viewed by many non-believing Israelis, as well.

One For Israel has now added English subtitles to the first two videos in this series. The videos are well worth a watch for believers abroad to see how local Messianics respond to those challenging their faith, especially within a Jewish context. » Full Article

SPECIAL NOTE: Baruch Mizrachi family
Baruch Mizrachi (Hebrew: בית ברוך מזרחי‎, Beit Baruch Mizrachi, "House of Baruch Mizrachi") is the oldest known Jewish family in Jerusalem, whose ancestor came to Jerusalem in 1621 and bought five houses in what is now called the Old City.

In 1643, Mizrachi wrote a will bequeathing the houses to his sons, yet preventing them from selling the houses, and obliging them to bequeath the houses to their sons, so that when the Messiah comes, Mizrahi will be able to return and live in his houses. The houses passed from generation to generation, and were the main reason that the family didn't leave Jerusalem (many other Jewish families at time left the city because of the economic conditions at the time). The houses were leased by the family members since the turn of the 20th century to an Arab family, while the family members built their houses outside the walls surrounding the Old City. » Source
