Discerning the signs of the times

“Discerning the Signs of the Times” (Matthew 16:3)

We are bold to believe that our ministry carries on the legacy of “The men of Issachar who understood the times and knew what Israel should do.” (II Chron. 12:32).God has declared, “Surely the Sovereign LORD does nothing without revealing his plans to his servants the prophets.” (Amos 3:7).

Our Mandate:

I. To proclaim God's restoration purposes for Christians and Jews. “The time is coming for God to restore all things” (Acts 3:21). The time when God restores all things, points to the come of the Messiah, or for Christians, the second coming of the Lord Jesus Christ. It is a process leading to an event. We are "waiting for the blessed hope — the glorious appearing of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ."(Titus 2:13).

For Christians, a restoration of:

• The "Blessed Hope" of the coming of the Lord Jesus Christ.(Titus 2:13)
• The continuing validity of the covenant promises of God to the Jews.(II Cor. 1:20).
• The recognition that Christians have not superseded or replaced Jews in God's covenants.(Rom. 11:1, 18, 26)

For Jews, a restoration of:

• The State of Israel as a fulfillment of God's covenant promises.(Isa. 66:8)
• The mandate for the re-gathering of Jews to their covenant homeland.(Isa 43:5-7)
• The hope for the coming of their Messiah.(Zech. 12:10)

II. To urge support for Israel and the Jewish people through prayer and action, according to the will and Word of God.

• By establishing Watchmen Brigade Intercessory Prayer Groups nation-wide. (Isaiah 62:6, 7)
• By promoting tours to Israel, conferences/meetings and hosting events.(Romans 15:27)
• By encouraging support of Israel-focused projects, e.g., Operation Aliyah, The Elisha Fund and Operation Life for Israel.(Romans 11:31)
• By encouraging "Aliyah" among the Jewish people.(II Chronicles 36:23)
• By calling for repentance for sins against the Jewish people.(Romans 2:5-6)
• By promoting an appreciation of the Hebrew roots of Christianity. (Romans 11:18)
