Evangelism and Discipleship

David Baron (1855–1926) was a Jewish convert to Christianity.Together with co-founder Charles Andrew Schönberger (1841 – 1924), they began the Hebrew Christian Testimony to Israel missionary organization, in London, with the purpose of converting Jews to Hebrew Christianity. In addition to writing several books, Baron also contributed articles to the periodical The Scattered Nation. He was involved in the Hebrew Christian movements of the Haskalah (Jewish Enlightenment) period in Europe.

You do know that the first followers of Yeshua (Jesus) were Jews. And everyone knows by now that Jews spread his message through the ministry of Paul, Peter, and the other apostles. But most people don't know that these early Messianic Jews were influential in Ancient Judea, Syria, Asia Minor, Greece, Italy, Spain and the North African cities of Carthage, Cyrene and Alexandria. Not only were they influential, their impact transformed the behavior of the known world.  Dr. Seif holds the title “University Distinguished Professor of Bible and Jewish Studies” at The King’s University—Houston. He is the project manager for the Tree Of Life Bible.

Here is a collection of substantive articles compiled to focus discussion on some weighty matters facing the Messianic Jewish movement. Reform rabbi Dr. Dan Cohn-Sherbok, though not a Messianic Jew, is a friend of the movement. He believes that Messianic Judaism may be considered a branch of Judaism in this century.
