Attached is the April 2012 newsletter from our mission partners, Shmuel & Pamela Suran in Israel.   Shmuel and Pamela will be serving as guides on our upcoming tour in Israel in November.   We still have space available for the trip so if you are interested in going here's a link to more information: http://www.jlwilliams.org/missions/HolyLandTour/

 

Dear JLPF Partner,

It is a joy for me to share the attached "Partner Profile" with you.  It is from our dear friends, Shmuel & Pamela Suran.  They are both Messianic Jews who live and minister in Israel.  Shmuel is a Jewish Christian Rabbi and Pamela is one of the few Evangelical Christian Guides in Israel.  She is also an incredible artist.  Together they lead a ministry known as Chazon Yerushalayim, or "Jerusalem Vision," which is based in Jerusalem.  They have a wonderful ministry to both Jews and Arabs in Jerusalem and Israel.  Pamela will also be guiding a Bible Study Tour of Israel that Patt and I will be leading November 9 - 19 -- which we hope many of you will be a part of. 

However, whether or not you go to Israel with us, their latest newsletter is a timely read.  It is about an important "prophetic paradigm shift" that many Gentile Christians struggle with.  It doesn't matter whether you are a dispensationalist, premillinnialist, amillennialist, postmillennialist -- or embrace Replacement Theology, this is a worthwhile read for any Christian. 

Also, regardless of your eschatology (belief about the Second Advent of the Lord Jesus) when it comes to Israel, the Jews and Gentile Church, I hope you will also download and study my book: "Understanding Your Jewish Roots."  I believe it will help you better understand the spiritual roots of Judaism that you were grafted into as a Believer.

"Pray for the peace of Jerusalem" (Ps. 122:6),
