Hebrew Voices #64 – A Chinese Christian who Loves Israel (Rebroadcast)

😊 peter wong sounds wonderful! Have you thought about doing a video tour of his museum? I think it would make a great hebrew voices and a nice update on how hes doing

Hi brother, Nehemiah is a gifted Karaite Jewish scholar, but not a Born Again Christian, pray for him
Blessings

I am kind of confused, is Nehemia Gordon a Christian, or a
“Hebrew Christian”, or is he jewish? It’s just that there is a fair amount
of mention of Christianity and Jesus. I thought Karaism was
Biblical Judaism.

I found Community Bible Study to be full of failed teachings and definitely not geared to true study and exploration. As a friend said, “Follow the money.” Ant discussions which might cause ripples in people’s traditional thinking might also result in less sales of books and materials.

Listened to your i nterview with won. Is he still alive and well? With what is going on in China at this time…..

Yehovah’s loving kindness and His tender mercies led me to Him. That was way back in 06 -07. I’m sure the same is/has been happening to Mr. Wong and countless other individuals across the world. I particularly appreciate the part where he mentions Moses still being read (and subsequently understood) every Shabbat.

Hi Nehemiah,
The challenge of the attack you experienced I am sorry for but do pray the man with the wrong spirit is blessed.
The power from on high Yahshua gives is
John 14:27
Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.
Matthew 5:11
Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake.
When we come under attack self is exposed to hurt, but in the Spirit of Christ it is a blessing.
Baruch Elohim

It is a bit bigger even than that Heiki. Studying the various uses of “circumcision” in the Bible, especially “the circumcision”, “become circumcised”, and similar constructs, and particularly the way that Paul/Shaul uses this terminology, really helps illuminate this story. If acceptance into The World to Come was understood to be by virtue of being Jewish, then *becoming* Jewish would be critical for the gentiles who believe in Yehovah and his Messiah. What the Yeshua-believing members of the (Jewish sect) Pharisees were teaching followed naturally from that understanding – Gentiles could certainly believe but in order to “be saved” they would have to become Jews. For Pharisees, of course, becoming Jews also meant upholding the myriad traditions that they added as fences (ironic, since Yeshua identified and condemned the elevation of these traditions to equality with Yehovah’s commands). This is the “burden” to which James refers in Acts 15. Apparently, some were also teaching that Jews who believed in Yeshua as Messiah should reject their Jewishness. Paul/Shaul condemned this as equally wrong, throughout his writings.

Mr. Wong’s understanding of Acts 15 is exceedingly prevalent in Christianity and is imho one of the most misunderstood things. The first congregation taught they one does not start with circumcision as that in itself would be too great a hurdle as most of these gentiles had little or no foreknowledge of the Torah.
So, they told the gentiles “start with these four things and then learn Torah as you go or are on the way”. Paul himself said he belonged to the sect among the Jews called the way.

Torah is still valid for us today as it was for Jeremiah, Micah, Jesus and Paul to mention a few. The Torah is God’s Code of Conduct.

Perhaps Peter Wong is part of the fulfillment of Isaiah 49:12
International Standard Bible Encyclopedia
SINIM, LAND OF
si’-nim, sin’-im (‘erets cinim; ge Person): The name occurs in Isaiah’s prophecy of the return of the people from distant lands: “Lo, these shall come from far; and, lo, these from the north and from the west; and these from the land of Sinim” (Isaiah 49:12). The land is clearly far off, and it must be sought either in the South or in the East. Septuagint points to an eastern country. Many scholars have favored identification with China, the classical Sinae.

This interview with Peter Wong was so refreshing, his seeking to know the creator without preconditioning of religion. I am eternally grateful to our Creator that He has provided a way through His people that all the nations (families) of the earth shall be blessed.

Check out Jeremiah 12:16-17.
Thats the second witness to Isaiah 49:8
Hugs everyone
?
Blessings, of health, long life and a close
living relationship with the MOST HIGH G-D, YHVH (JHWH).

Listened twice to especially Hebrew Revelation greater insight. Thankyou glad to be on board

It wasn’t until I started studying with you, Nehemiah, that I started to realize the Western perspective placed upon Jewish people, just in the shock at how I was silenced by the people I went excitedly to share with them ‘this guy’ who taught me the biblical word study that revealed to me my own Heavenly Father’s name.

OMG, like no one wants to hear about that because I learned it from you! Yes, I was shocked.

And this is “refreshing”. I love to hear a wise man articulate on the contribution of the Hebrew remnant, the Jewish people, to the many followers of Yeshua, myself included. I thank you for your tireless studies and dynamic teaching, sharing with me treasures I would otherwise live without.

(And they get to be my special sauce because not many that I know seem interested, actually sad, but still, I feel extra blessed.)

So, Thank you!

Sorry, this guy is wrong. We all come to God in the same way. The law is as valid today as it ever was. Acts 15 does not give gentiles a pass. In fact, it demands that the gentiles immediately repent of 4 sins and the rest they will get “as Moses is read in the synagogues on Sabbath”

So interesting to see a Karaite attacked as a Missionary!!! Also interesting to hear your comments the Lord’s prayer. I’m not sure how easy it would be for a muslim to pray that prayer because their relationship to their deity is one of slave and master not son and father.

Whooow, whose the hansom guy in the back of the picture? … the bald guy, athletic build… hoooa, bro… you lookin good. You seem to keep finding gentiles drawn to YEHOVAH by the One He gave as a Covenant to the peoples Isa 49:8 and by His Banner, the Banner He said He set up to draw the nations to Himself in Isa 49:22. May YEHOVAH continue to bless you Nehemia, and the people you meet, who love our God YEHVOAH.

Wow! My heart breaks for this Asian man….He is searching out the truths of God’s Word and he is so insulted by The passerby…….who made so many wrong assumptions about what was going on in this beautiful conversation. Stay strong Nehemiah, please. You are helping so many Christians find their way to Torah. I am in a Bible study with a friend and we have had so many people angry at us in the class because we talk about Torah. My friend got a phone call last week telling her not to speak about Torah as it makes people uncomfortable. Well, if we do not talk about Torah….I’m not sure what is left to talk about in a “Bible Study”. I have been called from the leadership telling me that I can only have two to three sentences to respond to questions. It is so sad how we are being told what we can not say and how many sentences we are allowed to speak. This is a Community Bible Study and is suppose to be welcoming to people of all beliefs. Please pray for my friend Kathy and I as we try to share the Oracle of God.
