My Jewish Background-Tefillin (Phylacteries)

So while able, to wrap Tefillin Had my inner barrier, of sin
Understood, Messiah Yeshua
Forgives and purifies, within.

Jewish Persecution

Till today, Israel fights
Now back in her land
Freed from Hitler’s hatred
Instead, Hamas’ evil plans.

The Jewish Messiah Foretold

While the ‘Tanach’, Old Testament
Clearly details, Messiah’s picture
Most Pharisees, rejecting Jesus
The One fulfilling, God’s scripture.

God Doesn’t Believe In Luck!

So, life is not random ‘luck’
God knows our will and ways
Sees our heart’s intent
God decides our lot, always.

An Observant Jew ?

Are your sins simply covered
Or taken away
Are you hoping good deeds
Will save on that Day?

Compromised or Consecrated?

Like Israel of old
We’re to purge our lives
Drive out, all our foes
Know God’s blessings, and thrive.

Leave No Leaven!

So like Israel, we too co-habit
Instead of purging, die to self
Compromising, we let our flesh
Pursue the carnal, and worldly wealth.

Our Heart- Our Control Center

So our heart, we must examine
Must guard, keep sealed
To be healthy, not hardened
Circumcised, not diseased.

Yom Kippur-Day of Atonement

Despite our striving to be ‘good’
We fall short, are unrighteous
Messiah’s offering, atonement
By faith, we’re made righteous.

A Complete Jew

Trusting, God’s Messiah
His Son, offered for our sin
To forgive us, make us righteous
Circumcise us within.
