Thank you God for faithful Jewish servants who spoke the Word of God to us, and those who preserved the Scriptures, kept the sacrificial system, the priesthood, the festivals, and the oracles of God entrusted them so that the rest of us could know that Jesus is the true Messiah and Savior of the world. Thank you for early Jewish followers of Christ who gave us their witness in the New Testament, planted churches, and bringing the gospel to us Gentiles. Thank you also for raising up modern day Jewish believers who seeks to carry on the torch of Abrahamic covenant to be a blessing to all the families of the earth.

“…but more than any of that, what means the most to me is that I am a Jew, who believe Jesus is the Messiah.” (Dr. James Tour)

“…although I myself might have confidence even in the flesh. If anyone else has a mind to put confidence in the flesh, I far more: circumcised the eighth day, of the nation of Israel, of the tribe of Benjamin, a Hebrew of Hebrews; as to the Law, a Pharisee; as to zeal, a persecutor of the church; as to the righteousness which is in the Law, found blameless. But whatever things were gain to me, those things I have counted as loss for the sake of Christ. More than that, I count all things to be loss in view of the surpassing value of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord, for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and count them but rubbish in order that I may gain Christ, and may be found in Him, not having a righteousness of my own derived from the Law, but that which is through faith in Christ, the righteousness which comes from God on the basis of faith, that I may know Him, and the power of His resurrection and the fellowship of His sufferings, being conformed to His death; in order that I may attain to the resurrection from the dead.” (Apostle Paul, Phil.3:4-11, NASB)
