We are the South African branch of Jews for Jesus—because faith in Jesus is a viable and thriving expression of Jewish life.

Our love for the Jewish people and the God who chose us are the core values guiding our work. We draw others closer to our Creator and, when welcomed, spark exploration and dialogue about the Messiah He sent. That's what being Jewish and for Jesus means.

When we take time to pause and rest, we’re also actively letting go of control and letting God take over. So as we prepare for the coming week, let’s rest in the truth of this verse: “Many are the plans in a person’s heart, but it is the Lord’s purpose that prevails” (Pro 19:21)

God knows us by name. God knows us by name. When God appeared to Moses at the burning bush, Moses asked for his name. Moses needed that intro, but God knew him—and he knows you too. Isaiah 43:1: “Fear not, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by name—you are Mine.”

Shabbat is a special time when we anticipate a world to come that will not know war, pain, or suffering. This Shabbat, we’d encourage you to freely share your burdens and pain with God and find rest in hopeful anticipation of the world to come. Until then, rest in His presence.

In chapter 137, the psalmist says, “If I forget you, O Jerusalem, let my right hand forget its skill! Let my tongue stick to the roof of my mouth, if I do not remember you…” We will always stand with our people—now and forever. #ShauvaTov #Israel #YeshuaIsMessiah

Jesus welcomed those who came with questions. Asking thoughtful questions helps us learn about one another—so why hold back when it comes to God? If you’re curious about Jesus, bring your questions to God. We’d also love to talk to you—message us. #Jesus #Faith

As Jewish people, many of us were uneasy examining Jesus’ claims. But when we looked, we found He was one of us: a Jew with a Jewish family tree, named Yeshua (Hebrew for “salvation”), called “rabbi,” attending shul, celebrating our holidays & teaching from the Hebrew Scriptures.

Wishing everyone a joyful and meaningful Simchat Torah! Today, marks the conclusion of the annual Torah reading cycle— and we immediately start from the beginning again. Lets pray that as the Jewish people read through the Torah this year they will see their Messiah, Yeshua.

Ancient prophecies reveal two Messiahs: Mashiach Ben Yosef (the suffering servant) and Mashiach Ben David (the conquering King).Yeshua fulfilled the first at His death (Isaiah 53) and will fulfill the second at His return. Do you believe this? DM us to learn more!

As the sun sets on Yom Kippur, we enter a sacred time of reflection, prayer, and fasting. Through Yeshua our High Priest, we have eternal redemption. His sacrifice didn't just cover our sins—it took them away completely (Hebrews 9:11-12).#YomKippur #YeshuaOurHighPriest
