2004 SUPPORT OF HHMI

Dear Mishpochah (family):

This is an UNCOMMON note from HHMI. This note is about asking you to PRAY and CONSIDER whether YHVH would have you become a MONTHLY supporter of HHMI during 2004.

THE HISTORY OF HHMI

Hebraic Heritage Ministries Int'l has had a webpage on the internet since 1996. HHMI has one of the most EXTENSIVE Hebraic roots websites on the internet. We have links to MANY teaching articles on a variety of subject and links to various Hebraic roots teaching ministries. HHMI sought to design it's webpage to be of the GREATEST BENEFIT to those who are seeking to STUDY the Hebraic roots of Christianity.

Since 1996, over 11,000 people have received our mostly weekly e-mail's over the years. MANY of these teaching articles are located at the HHMI newsgroup archive website at:

http://www.hebroots.org/hebrootsarchive/

When HHMI offers teachings materials, it is USUALLY at or near wholesale prices where HHMI makes a minimal if any profit from it's product offerings. THOUSANDS have read my three books, "The Seven Festivals of the Messiah", "Who is the Bride of Christ?" and "Restoring the Two Houses of Israel". MANY have testified that HHMI has changed their life and walk in Yeshua the Messiah.

HHMI IS A SERVANT MINISTRY

Over the years, Hebraic Heritage Ministries Int'l has proven that it is a SERVANT ministry. Hopefully, by seeing the SERVANT HEART of HHMI that this has touched and bore witness with your heart so that you are able to realize that HHMI is GOOD SOIL for your prayer and financial support.

FULL TIME MINISTRY IN 2003

From 1985 - 2002, I worked as a computer professional at a Fortune 500 company. The ministry of HHMI was done in my "spare" time which meant in a LOT of cases that it was difficult to find time to sleep. Ultimately the burden became to great as MORE PEOPLE needed to come to the knowledge and understanding of our Hebraic roots in Messiah. So, YHVH brought me to the point where He made it clear that He wanted me to be in FULL-TIME ministry. The ultimate separating from my former employer came in 2002. During 2003, I became a full-time employee of HHMI.

2003: ACCOMPLISHMENTS AND TRANSITION

The end of 2002 and the beginning of 2003 was spent conducting ministry trips to New Zealand, Australia and South Africa. I also made several trips to Canada in 2003. There were also MANY speaking engagements in the USA through weekend seminars and Hebraic conferences. During 2003, I spoke in Pennsylvania, New York, North Carolina, South Carolina, Florida, Arkansas, Missouri, Oklahoma, Texas, Colorado, Nebraska, New Mexico, Ohio, Indiana and California among other places. It was a BUSY year!

MINISTRY GOALS AND PLANS FOR 2004

YHVH has put it upon my heart from speaking and being with so many people over the years in the Hebraic roots of Christianity movement that there is a NEED for home fellowship groups and local congregations to be able to DISCIPLE those who want to study and understanding the Hebraic roots of Christianity. Therefore, YHVH has put it upon my heart to develop a one-year discipleship / Yeshiva program. In December 2003, this project was started. So far, I have completed 5 lessons.

When I am not traveling, I am dedicated to working to complete one or several lessons each week. Each lesson is being put into a Powerpoint presentation. For each Powerpoint lesson, I will eventually produce an audio tape, CD and DVD. Plans are for each lesson to be ultimately put into a workbook. Lessons will include topics on the Sabbath, Torah and Grace, the Biblical Festivals and foundation for understanding the Two Houses of Israel in addition to a variety of other subjects.

The goal of developing these lessons will be for you to train leaders in your local study groups and disciple them during the year using these materials. Hopefully, each study group in your local area will learn of each other and fellowship between different groups will begin to develop. Hopefully from this, you can gather together to celebrate each of the annual Biblical Festivals in your region.

When the one-year discipleship series is completed, I will notify the newsgroup of the details of how the one-year discipleship program / Yeshiva will be implemented. At that time, the ministry will begin to work with local study group leaders, fellowship groups and congregations.

In order to develop these types of materials, it takes time, effort and money. It takes a BODY who is willing to work TOGETHER for a COMMON GOAL ---- the health and healing of the SHEEP of YHVH.

THE HARVEST IS PLENTY BUT THE LABORERS ARE FEW

Those who need to be DISCIPLED in the BODY of Messiah to understand their Hebraic roots in Messiah are in the MILLIONS. However, the LABORERS who are willing and able to teach the Hebraic roots of Christianity are FEW.

KJV Matthew 9:35 And Jesus went about all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing every sickness and every disease among the people.

KJV Matthew 9:36 But when he saw the multitudes, he was moved with compassion on them, because they fainted, and were scattered abroad, as sheep having no shepherd.

KJV Matthew 9:37 Then saith he unto his disciples, The harvest truly is plenteous, but the labourers are few;

When Messiah was speaking of "healing the diseased" when he saw the MULTITUDE that they were SCATTERED because there was NO SHEPHERD, He was making an allusion to Ezekiel 34:1-10.

THE SHEPHERDS OF ISRAEL ARE NOT FEEDING THE FLOCK

KJV Ezekiel 34:1 And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,

KJV Ezekiel 34:2 Son of man, prophesy against the shepherds of Israel, prophesy, and say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD unto the shepherds; Woe be to the shepherds of Israel that do feed themselves! should not the shepherds feed the flocks?

KJV Ezekiel 34:3 Ye eat the fat, and ye clothe you with the wool, ye kill them that are fed: but ye feed not the flock.

FEEDING THE FLOCK = TEACHING TORAH

The accusation against the shepherds of Israel is that they were "fat with wool" but the sheep weren't being fed. In the USA, there are churches in virtually every city and even street corner.. Pastors continue to be paid well. Many have a retirement plan. The budget of the church is met. The churches and the Pastors have received plenty of wool (money) for the sheep. HOWEVER, the sheep are NOT being TAUGHT TORAH. Therefore, they are still "diseased" and they are SCATTERED among the NATIONS because there is NO SHEPHERD to lead them to "still waters" (which is the Torah).

KJV Ezekiel 34:4 The DISEASED have ye not strengthened, neither have ye HEALED that which was SICK, neither have ye bound up that which was broken, neither have ye brought again that which was driven away, neither have ye SOUGHT that which was LOST; but with force and with cruelty have ye ruled them.

The "sickness" is the EXILE which caused the sheep to be SCATTERED. The "healing" is FOLLOWING TORAH and the Messianic era redemption.

In other words, the SHEEP are NOT being told by the SHEPHERDS that the reason why they are SCATTERED and SICK is that they have departed from Torah.

"Seeking the LOST" = Teaching Torah to EPHRAIM.

MESSIAH TO HIS DISCIPLES: THE LABORERS ARE FEW

KJV Matthew 9:36 But when he saw the multitudes, he was moved with compassion on them, because they fainted, and were scattered abroad, as sheep having no shepherd.

KJV Matthew 9:37 Then saith he unto his disciples, The harvest truly is plenteous, but the labourers are few;

Messiah told His disciples (those who would take His TORAH teachings to the SCATTERED SHEEP (the multitudes)) that the HARVEST is GREAT (the body of Messiah is in the MILLIONS) but the LABORERS are FEW (those who are willing and able to TEACH the TORAH of MESSIAH).

PRAY THAT LABORERS ARE SENT TO THE HARVEST

KJV Matthew 9:38 Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he will send forth labourers into his harvest.

The specific prayer of Messiah was that LABORERS (who are FEW) would be SENT to the HARVEST (the multitudes who are SCATTERED sheep and are LOST ... departed from Torah).

Hebraic Heritage Ministries Int'l is seeking to be a laborer unto this harvest. It is a COMMANDMENT of the Messiah.

YHVH WILL SEND SHEPHERDS TO FEED HIS FLOCK

KJV Jeremiah 3:15 And I will give you pastors according to mine heart, which shall feed you with knowledge and understanding.

"knowledge and understanding" is following the Torah.

BEING CO-LABOERERS IN MESSIAH

Over the years, have your recognized the SERVANT heart of Hebraic Heritage Ministries Int'l? Do you realize the NEED to have a one-year discipleship / Yeshiva program to teach the GREAT HARVEST of sheep who are SCATTERED? When Messiah saw the MULTITUDE, He was moved with COMPASSION. Do you have the SAME COMPASSION as Messiah for His sheep who are SCATTERED because the shepherds of Israel are NOT feeding them and giving them the understanding of Torah? Is YHVH speaking to your heart to be a co-partner with HHMI during 2004?

TO PLANT OR TO WATER ????

KJV 1 Corinthians 3:7 So then neither is he that planteth any thing, neither he that watereth; but God that giveth the increase.

ONE WHO PLANTS AND WATERS ARE CO-LABORERS

KJV 1 Corinthians 3:8 Now he that planteth and he that watereth are one: and every man shall receive his own reward according to his own labour.

KJV 1 Corinthians 3:9 For we are labourers together with God: ye are God's husbandry, ye are God's building.

SOWING CHEEFULLY FOR A BOUNTIFUL HARVEST

KJV 2 Corinthians 9:6 But this I say, He which soweth sparingly shall reap also sparingly; and he which soweth bountifully shall reap also bountifully.

KJV 2 Corinthians 9:7 Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, so let him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver.

WHAT IS YOUR DECISION FOR 2004?

HHMI has been sustained over the years by YHVH through FAITHFUL monthly supporters. HHMI would like to THANK our ministry partners on THIS NEWSGROUP who have been VERY FAITHFUL over the years to support the ministry of HHMI. You know who you are. Thank you.

For those who are NOT current monthly supporters of the ministry of HHMI, if YHVH is speaking to your heart to begin supporting HHMI in 2004, would you consider obeying His voice? Remember, the Messiah said that the HARVEST is GREAT but the LABORERS are FEW. Would you be willing to partner with HHMI and sent forth laborers unto the harvest? The rewards are eternal.
