Hello and Shalom. I'm a new fellow here who has just been allowed access. Thank you! I am looking forward to reading the posts, and hearing from others who are believers in Yeshua.
I'm a person who accepted Yeshua, as you call Him from the Hebrew, a long time ago. It was in 1971 when I was nine years of age, a week approximately after my ninth birthday. I was baptized, (given a mikvah), the next evening. Our church was having revival services, and the pastor of the church thought it would be a good thing to do during the revival services, if I recall correctly. I have been a Christian ever since, although I have had to learn a few things the hard way in order to stay a Christian.
I'm now in the Assemblies Of God, in my small city where I live, somewhat close to Kansas City.
Although I have been to a Messianic Synagogue a few times, we have been attending where I am currently for a number of years, and have seen God move within the church setting where I currently attend. I must say, it was interesting to me, that there are those who are faithful to Yeshua, and are Jewish in culture and tradition. I think the overall church could learn something from this, get back to their Jewish Roots so to speak. I do believe it's good that the Assemblies Of God as an organization are making an effort to reach all people including people of the Jewish culture.
