Sunday, May 18 – 7 pm – International Worship Service. Pentecostal Temple; 6300 East Liberty Blvd. Join us in a cooperative effort to worship our God with One Voice regardless of our race, denomination or ethnic background! “Bringing the Body of Messiah Together With One Voice”. We are excited to have Shoresh David seeking unity in the Body with other precious saints in this venture! We think this is an exciting step in building unity in Pittsburgh among believers, and is an earthly representation of Revelation 7:9. There are flyers available in the foyer.

Wednesdays–7 pm – Chavurah– Beginning May 21st, we will begin a ten session study on “Spirit Driven Success” by Dani Johnson

In Spirit Driven Success, Dani shares how she overcame horrendous circumstances of poverty, abuse, homelessness and debt. Dani shares her insights concerning the marketplace and how she was once seduced into a world of materialism and false success, before God brought her back to His among other things, to not struggle in the area of finances; especially, to be good stewards and be freed up to use our finances to advance the Kingdom of God here on earth! W e invite you to join us in learning how to do just that!

This is an unbelievable roster of amazing followers of Yeshua who can encourage us in the end-time harvest. Lancaster, PA Host Resort. Do NOT miss this!!!!

Then Yeshua Took The Cup

We believe that the cup on the Passover table that Yeshua took directly after the meal was the third cup, called the Cup of Redemption, looking back the redemption that God wrought in Egypt, and looking forward to the redemption that Yeshua would provide at Calvary.

Yeshua raised that cup and said, "This is the New Covenant in My blood, shed for many for the remission of sins." What new covenant? The one promised in the Jewish Scriptures. Jeremiah 31 promised a New Covenant that would not be according to the covenant that God made with our people when He took them out of Egypt—that covenant they broke!

The problem with the older covenant was that it became a broken covenant. Oh, God knew so well our condition—He knew our tendency to wander from Him! He knew, therefore, that in order to remedy our condition He must change us from the inside, yet without making us robots—God's greatest challenge!!!

The first covenant was written on tablets of stone, the New Covenant:God's solution, was to be written on the tablet of our hearts. In other words, God was going to circumcise our hearts (the Jewish way of saying we must be born again). This equals God placing His Spirit within us, giving us a new orientation toward His laws, and causing us to walk in His ways.

This was accomplished through the death and resurrection of Yeshua and the sending of His Holy Spirit to live inside of us. This was the ultimate condition upon which the New Covenant rested, for no longer would sin be atoned for through the daily offerings in the Temple, but once and for all God would deal with this most difficult of human predicaments.

.....And now we find Yeshua there in that upper room with His disciples, taking the cup, taking the bread, taking the cup after the meal and saying, "That which you have been waiting for---that which was promised, that New Covenant has now come in My blood!" Of this redemption you and I partake—if we've by faith applied the blood of His sacrifice to the doorposts of our hearts. YESHUA IS OUR PASSOVER LAMB! Let's commit to sharing this message in 2008 to our Jewish friends, co-workers, and neighbors—no, really!

Blessings, Ned
