Jesus as our Messiah was Jewish. His Apostles were Jewish (with perhaps 1 exception: Luke). Of the 40 authors of the Bible, at least 39 were Jewish. The Bible's heritage, culture and most of its language is also Jewish (Hebrew/ Aramaic) later translated into Greek for Jews who lived in Greek communities. Jesus celebrated the Levitical feasts of Lev. chapter 23.

Question: What would happen if you were to cut down a tree, sever the tree from its roots system, and then attempt to re-plant the same tree into a newly dug hole without its roots.

Would it thrive? Would it flourish? Would it even be able to survive?

That is what happened when in the 4th Century when the Roman Emperor Constantine, after converting to Christianity, severed the Christian Church from its Hebrew Roots.

Has the Church flourished with unity, power, and life? Or has it divided itself with denominations, differing doctrines/dogmas and internal strife?

Should we allow a chance for the church tree to flourish, thrive and be productive by re-establishing its Hebrew roots? Is the Bible a Hebrew book or a Greek book? Is planet Earth our kingdom inheritance or is it something to be shunned and abandoned? Relevant questions all.

I studied 15 years under a prolific author, Pastor, educator, musician, Robert B. Thompson who came to know the Lord in the United States Marine Corps during the closing days of WWII. He received his Doctorate in Public School Education and took those educational skills over to his becoming a licensed minister in 2 Pentecostal denominations. Over his multi- decade career, he produced 1200 books and pamphlets dealing with the pursuit of personally interacting with God. Ultimately, after his death at age 96, he released most copyright restrictions so that the body of Christ could benefit from his years of labor/service in pursuing Messiah Jesus of Nazareth, the Holy Spirit and Father God Himself.

As a Gentile believer, he had an undying affection for Israel and the Jewish people. He understood the Bible to be a Divinely inspired Jewish religious/cultural book of middle eastern thought wherein the Kingdom of God includes both the people of Israel and the Gentile nations of believers functioning together as a singular entity called the Kingdom of God.

Acts 1:8 lays out our assignment directly from the Resurrected Jesus who was about to ascend back to His Father. We are to be His Kingdom of God witnesses to Jerusalem, Judea and Samaria and to the ends of the earth as empowered by the The Holy Spirit.

A witness is one who describes what one saw, heard, touched, perceived, or experienced to lend credibility to an account, claim, or position.
