Messianic Faith & Jewish Roots

New doctoral research by Dr. Sanette Fleming reveals how observing God’s Appointed Times, the Biblical Feasts, strengthens family discipleship, deepens Biblical literacy, and positively shapes children’s spiritual formation. Grounded in Scripture, Messianic theology, and original research, this study offers compelling evidence for the enduring relevance of God’s redemptive calendar.

Yeshua didn’t reject the Torah—He rejected man-made religion that distorted it. His yoke is light because it restores God’s commandments to their original, life-giving purpose. This article contrasts Yeshua’s teachings with rabbinic burdens and reveals how the Torah, through Him, brings rest, not legalism.

Who was Jesus—really?
In this compelling article, Rev. Dr. Sanette Fleming uncovers the Jewish identity of Yeshua (Jesus), restoring Him to His first-century context as a Torah-observant Rabbi, the promised Messiah of Israel, and the fulfilment of God’s covenant with the Jewish people. Through Scripture and historical insight, this piece challenges common Western portrayals and calls believers back to the Hebraic roots of the Gospel. Understanding Yeshua rightly is not optional—it’s essential for interpreting Scripture and walking in authentic discipleship.

he Quartodecimans—so named from the Latin quartodecimus meaning “fourteenth”—observed the death of Messiah (Christ) on the 14th of Nisan in accordance with the Biblical calendar and the Jewish Passover. In contrast, the Roman Church moved to commemorate the resurrection of Messiah (Christ) on the Sunday following the spring full moon, thus creating the festival now known as Easter.

It is important to once again reiterate that, the current celebrations in the church were not celebrated by the early believers and in fact were not even established until hundreds of years later in most cases.

Get ready for a day of thought-provoking discussions and meaningful connections. Join us as we dive deep into the modern, historical, and Biblical definitions and applications of Truth and how believers are called to live and be in a post-truth world. Don’t miss out on this opportunity to become more equipped and empowered to live, speak, and share God’s truth in this post-truth and hostile world.

Is there are a difference between Messianic Jewish belief and Messianic? The difference between Messianic Judaism and Messianic came up in a recent conversation. You might be saying, “Are they not the same?” I wish I could say, “The short answer is…” Though not readily noticeable, there is undoubtedly a slight distinction between Messianic and Messianic Judaism.

we believe in a Jewish Messiah. Jesus Himself said, “You worship what you do not know; we worship what we know, for salvation is from the Jews.” (John 4:22, TLV) Jesus not only explicitly acknowledged His earthly Jewishness, but He also revealed our Heavenly Father’s purpose for establishing the Children of Israel, the Jewish way of being — to usher in Salvation for the world.

What if everything you thought you knew about the early Church was missing its Jewish foundation?

Before the term “Christian” was ever used in Antioch, believers in Yeshua worshiped in synagogues, celebrated the Biblical feasts, and proclaimed the fulfillment of the Torah—not its abolition. Both Jew and Gentile were one in Messiah, gathering not in “churches” as we think of them today, but in assemblies rooted in Israel’s covenantal identity. So, what happened? Why has the modern Church often forgotten its Messianic beginnings?
