Welcome to Restorers of Zion

a grassroots ministry

serving the Body of Yeshua

in Israel

and the believers worldwide

from Israel

 

 

Meet a ministry where Restoration is a two-way street.

Our goal is not Fundraising, it's Serving. 

Sometimes Service requires funding, sometimes it requires different investments:  time, prayer, exercising spiritual gifts, opening the heart and home. Restorers is working in areas where lack of money is not an obstacle... and where "throwing money at the problem" would not bring restoration.

 

Meet a ministry where

we and you TOGETHER

are

the "Restorers of Zion".

We are privileged to work in partnership with other Restorers who share our vision:

NEW: TAAM / Torah Answers for Anti-missionaries

After several years of research, prayer and honest dialog with antagonists, we have finally launched the beginning of a unique project: a web hub answering common (and not so common) Jewish objections to our faith as Jews in Yeshua, the Messiah of Israel. Go here for the introductory page.

Why "unique"?  Because although this is only one of many such efforts by Messianic believers, we see this collection as different in some basic ways. We are specifically addressing those in the Torah community who have dedicated themselves to anti-missionary or Jewish outreach efforts, and who are specially trained (or who feel especially competent) to deal with the issues. Because of this, our answers follow rabbinic lines in discussing Torah, make use of the nuances found in Tanach Hebrew, and present a wider body of rabbinic commentary on Messiah than is usually cited.

Why only "the beginning"? Because this is meant to be a living, growing project. We hope to receive feedback, questions and yes, even more objections, which we can add to the site, as the Holy Spirit teaches us how to respond. We are also open to correcting any mistakes or inaccuracies that we might have unknowingly included.

We issue a warm invitation to all believers, both Jewish and Gentile, who are harboring doubts (even in secret). If you have been troubled by inadequate answers to challenges from counter-missionaries, and honesty has compelled you to conclude that Yeshua cannot be the Messiah after all, or that it's wrong to call Him "G-d", this Torah-based web hub will encourage and strengthen you. We recommend that you start here for a pleasant shock.

We also issue a respectful challenge to our dati/frum Jewish brethren, to test your foundations. There are certain "givens" concerning rabbinic history, the chain of Torah transmission, and other assumptions that inform your view of Torah obedience. Regardless of your position on Yeshua, you cannot hope to merit the days of Moshiach unless you are first committed to deal only with the truth of G-d.  Enter here... if you dare.
