One New Man Conferences
Israel & The Jewish People through God’s Eyes
The Event
-
The What
A multi-day experience that includes 6 sessions on the topics of Israel & The Jewish People. It begins on Friday evening and includes a 10 - 5 day on Saturday, including a break for lunch. The 6 sessions will be approximately 1 hour each. John Myers will present a solid biblical perspective of the story God is telling to all mankind through the Jewish people and the nation of Israel. Chris Kuehl will address the theological and current cultural pushback to this story with opportunities for Q&A. The perspectives presented in this time together are those of a Jewish believer in Jesus (John) and a gentile Christian (Chris).
-
The Why
Israel and the Jewish people are the central characters in both the Old and New Testaments. Nevertheless, the majority of Christians today do not understand the Israel Story. What is God’s plan, purpose, and destiny for the Jewish people and the nation of Israel? Is that important to our faith in Jesus, and if so, what are we to do about it? We need to know and God wants us to know the answers to these critical questions.
-
The Now
These and many other questions are challenging the Church right now. Our collective church history, at best, has been one of deep ambivalence towards Jewish suffering, and at worst, has been an instigator of Jewish suffering. We are at an inflection point in the relationship between the Church and the Jewish people. It is with this in mind, that we will declare the story that God is telling about Israel and the Jewish people and examine the questions and challenges that come with this declaration.

The Israel Story is God’s story. He conceives it, initiates it, perpetuates it, tells it, and will bring it to a blessed conclusion. He is the Hero of the Israel Story, and through it, His name will be glorified.
-
In this session we have distilled 10 difficult, seemingly contradictory scriptural, theological, and cultural statements about the Jewish people. Our goal is to address the common challenges facing what we believe is a correct understanding of Israel and the Jewish people.
-
The Jewish people had the Land God gave them and the face of God, intimacy with Him. They lost the Land and God hid his face from them due to their sins, yet in this miraculous hour, Israel is being restored to their Land and will be restored to God through faith in their Messiah, Yeshua (Jesus). The Israel Story has a good ending!
-
In this session we will build a framework for Israel over the last 100 years. We will briefly examine the conflict, the challenges this conflict brings for both the Israelis and Palestinians and how this interacts with the postmodern phenomenon of social justice happening in America. Through it all, we will anchor our framework through our understanding of God’s plans and purposes that supersede our cultural moment.
-
Believers in Jesus are warned by the apostle Paul not to be prideful toward the Jewish people who don’t yet share their faith. For two thousand years, many who have professed faith in Jesus have failed to heed this warning with tragic results. In this critical hour, it is essential that the Church embodies God’s love for the Jewish people and stands with Him for Israel’s salvation.
-
We will have a technology system set up that allows the audience to submit questions digitally throughout each of our previous sessions. In session 6 we will attempt to answer these questions.
