Why is Yeshua appearing to Muslims in dreams and visions? This second teaching on the subject considers the history of missionary efforts to Muslims and the role that Messianic Judaism might have to play in bringing the gospel to the Muslim world. Listen to Part One: Revelation to Ishmael.

Yeshua is appearing to Muslims in dreams and visions, a phenomenon reminiscent of the story in Lech Lecha where an angel appears to Hagar in the wilderness and bestows prophecy and blessing on her unborn son, Ishmael. This teaching is part one of a two-part discussion on the revelation of Yeshua to Muslims. Listen to Part Two of this teaching, Ishmael's Destiny.

It's not about going to heaven when you die, its about leaving heaven to come back to life. 1 Peter 1:1-5 teaches us that disciples of Yeshua are being born again to an inperishable, undefiled, and unfading hope kept in heaven but made physical here on earth in the resurrection of the dead. 

To whom is the Epistle of 1 Peter addressed, Jews or Gentiles? The answer mgiht surprise you. It has to do with being "born again." This teaching explores the divide between Peter and Paul and their respective ideas about Gentile identity in the Messiah Yeshua. 

Drawing directly on the teaching of Yeshua, James warns us against showing partiality and he enjoins us to show mercy that we might receive mercy. This important teaching from the Epistle of James was recorded in the Beth Immanuel Green Room in the summer of 2011.
