For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace." Isaiah 9 is one of the first scriptures that come to mind when we look at the birth of our Messiah, but as clear at it might seem there are many objections to the messianic interpretation of this verse. In this episode of Case for Messiah we answer these objections and reveal the Messiah born to us, who is Wonderful, Mighty God, Everlasting Father and Prince of Peace!

It might seem like semantics here, and of course we still use the term, but have you thought about the effect this name has made on our reading of the scripture? When we refer to the Old Testament it gives a connotation that these books aren't relevant anymore, but Dr. Postell dives deep into why the covenants and promises in the books of the Tanakh are still active in our present and future.

In this video, we explain and refute the arguments against the New Testament's interpretation of Daniel 7, arguing that Daniel 7 presents the "one like a son of man" as a fully divine Messiah who will one day be worshipped by all nations.

The Case for Messiah seeks to answer some the biggest questions and objections to the Messianic interpretation of Scripture and strengthen your faith. In this video we look at the arguments against the Messianic interpretation of Isaiah 7:14. After examining the evidence, we conclude that the Hebrew word "almah" in Isaiah 7:14 means "a young unmarried girl who is a virgin." We also argue that the Messianic interpretation of Isaiah 7:14 is completely appropriate in its larger context. Want to go deeper? Check out more resources below https://www.oneforisrael.org/answers/

About One For Israel

Established in 1990, ONE FOR ISRAEL began as a Bible college and has since expanded to a multi-faceted ministry with the express goal of reaching Israelis with the Good News of Yeshua, training and equipping the Body of Messiah in Israel, and blessing our community with Yeshua’s love. The story and ministry of ONE FOR ISRAEL is part of something much larger – the miraculous restoration of the Jewish people and the miraculous unity between Jewish and Arab believers in Jesus. We are seeing not only the physical restoration of Israel after a 2000-year exile, but a spiritual revolution is taking place right in front of our eyes. Jewish people are returning to their God and accepting the Messiah in numbers not seen since the early church! Not only that, but many Arab people are coming to the Lord and many Arab believers are finding a deep unity with their Jewish brothers and sisters. ONE FOR ISRAEL exists to do ministry within this miracle. We are Jews and Arabs, together serving Messiah Jesus, sharing the Gospel with Israel and the world, making disciples, training leaders, and blessing our communities in the name of Yeshua.

About Dr. Erez Soref

Dr. Erez Soref - President, One for Israel, One for Israel Bible College

Erez grew up in a traditional Israeli household, attending synagogue every week and learning the Old Testament in school all the way from first to twelfth grade, but to him, God felt distant. Bible lessons were taught more as the general history of the Jewish people, rather than with spiritual meaning. After his service in the IDF, Erez left for southeast Asia on the “Mysticism” trail, wanting to better understand spirituality. It was on his search that he discovered Israel’s best kept secret: Yeshua (Jesus) the Messiah. After his life changing discovery, Erez immediately wanted to study the scriptures but found no Bible college in Israel to help. Erez felt that he was called to change that, and has worked tirelessly since then to provide the opportunity to Israelis—both Jewish and Arab—to study the Bible, in Hebrew where it happened. Today, Erez serves as president of the only accredited Bible college in Israel, training Israelis for ministry in the One for Israel Bible college. Under his leadership the college has trained thousands for ministry in Israel, and created a online awakening with cutting edge media outreach. Through One For Israel, we reach millions of Israelis with the gospel every year, and hundreds of millions around the world. Erez lives in Netanya with his wife, Sisi, and their three children.
