What is “Jewish” about JVMI?

Jewish Voice Ministries brings the Good News – the Gospel – of Yeshua (which is the Hebrew name of Jesus) to people whom are Jewish according to the flesh. That is, those who are descendants of Abraham through Isaac, whether through the blood line of the mother or father. 

We help them understand that those who place their faith in Israel’s Messiah Yeshua will never disown or separate themselves from their Jewish identity or heritage. On the contrary, they remain sons and daughters of Israel.

Why reach the Jewish people with the Good News of Yeshua the Messiah? The Gospel is for everyone, but when it comes to sharing it, we have found that the Jewish people are one of the most neglected people groups.

Many Gentile Christians wrongly believe that the Jewish people have their own path to God and don’t need Jesus for salvation. This couldn’t be further from the truth! Not only do the Jewish people need the Messiah for salvation like everyone else, but Romans 1:16 tells us that the Gospel is to be preached “to the Jew first.”

“For I am not ashamed of the Gospel, because it is the power of God that brings salvation to everyone who believes: first to the Jew, then to the Gentile” (Romans 1:16).

Not all Jewish people reject Jesus as the Messiah. The truth is, many of them have no idea who He really is. We know that Christ is simply the Greek word for Messiah but sadly, when a Jewish person hears the name “Jesus Christ,” they think “the God of the Christians” rather than the Jewish Messiah, the Savior of the world.

Only about 10-15 percent of the Jewish community is orthodox and actively studies Scripture. The truth is, most Jewish people have never even read the Bible.

As we share with them key Messianic prophecies found in the Hebrew Scriptures – such as Isaiah 53 and Jeremiah 31:31-33 – we witness the miracle of Jewish people recognizing Yeshua as their Messiah. When the scales fall off their eyes, we hear many of them say, “Why didn’t anyone ever show me this before?”

We at Jewish Voice believe that the return of the Messiah is near. The Land of Israel and the City of Jerusalem have been returned to the Jewish people, and God continues to gather His people back to the Land from the four corners of the Earth. These are all signs given to us in prophecy that signal the onset of the Last Days. On top of these things, Jewish people are coming to faith in Jesus in increasing numbers. Right before our eyes, we are seeing End Time Prophecy being fulfilled in our own day.

It is Jewish Voice’s vision to take the Gospel “to the Jew first.” We focus our Medical Clinics in struggling and, in some cases, persecuted, Jewish communities in Ethiopia, Zimbabwe, and other locations. We focus our Festivals in worldwide city centers that have a large concentration of Jewish people. We give aid to and share the Good News with any who come to us, but it is the Jewish communities we’ve identified that draw us to each of our locations.

It is truly exciting to be a part of introducing God’s Chosen People to their Messiah, Yeshua! You can be a part of this exciting move of God by joining us on one (or more!) of our Outreaches, where we share the love and hope of Yeshua HaMashiach (Jesus the Messiah) “to the Jew first.”
