Jewish Disciples of the Messiah
The Almighty chose Israel to be a light to the nations. Through them we have received the Holy Scriptures to be a "Lamp unto our feet and a light unto our path" Psalm 119:105.
The Jewish Disciples spread the message of Forgiveness of Sins and the promise of Eternal life through Yeshua the Messiah, as their Saviour had commanded them. The Lord Jesus said, "But you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be witnesses to Me in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth." Acts 1: 8.
Since the exile of the Jewish people from their land in 70AD, much of the Christian Church has comprised of Gentiles, but there have always been Jewish people who have embraced the truths of the New Testament and mightily served their Messiah and brought His Salvation to the ends of the earth.
The following are just a few of those who have changed lives for eternity.

What does GOD say about Zion in the PROPHETS?
For Zion’s sake I will not hold My peace and for Jerusalem’s sake I will not rest, until her righteousness goes forth as brightness and her salvation as a lamp that burns. Isaiah 62:1
"Come, and let us go up to the mountain of the LORD, to the house of the God of Jacob; He will teach us His ways, and we shall walk in His paths." For out of Zion shall go forth the law, and the word of the LORD from Jerusalem. Isaiah 2:3
I bring My righteousness near, it shall not be far off; My salvation shall not linger. And I will place salvation in Zion, for Israel My glory. Isaiah 46:13
For the LORD will comfort Zion, He will comfort all her waste places; He will make her wilderness like Eden, and her desert like the garden of the LORD. Joy and gladness will be found in it, thanksgiving and the voice of melody. Isaiah 51:3
For I will restore health to you and heal you of your wounds,’ says the LORD, ‘ Because they called you an outcast, Zion for whom no one cares. Jeremiah 30:17
And it shall come to pass that whoever calls on the name of the LORD shall be saved. For in Mount Zion and in Jerusalem there shall be deliverance, as the LORD has said, among the remnant whom the LORD calls. Joel 2:32
So the angel who spoke with me said to me, "Proclaim, saying, ‘Thus says the LORD of hosts: "I am zealous for Jerusalem and for Zion with great zeal. I am exceedingly angry with the nations at ease; for I was a little angry, and they helped—but with evil intent." Zechariah 1:14–15
Again proclaim, saying, ‘Thus says the LORD of hosts: “ My cities shall again spread out through prosperity; the LORD will again comfort Zion, and will again choose Jerusalem’. Zechariah 1: 17
"Sing and rejoice, O daughter of Zion! For behold, I am coming and I will dwell in your midst," says the LORD. "Many nations shall be joined to the Lord in that day, and they shall become my people. And I will dwell in your midst. Then you will know that the Lord of Hosts has sent me to you. And the Lord will take possession of Judah as His inheritance in the Holy Land, and will again choose Jerusalem. Be silent, all flesh before the Lord, for He is aroused from His holy habitation!". Zechariah 2:10-13
