Infos

In the Bible, God established a covenant people for a very specific mission: Israel was to be a Light to the Gentiles. The story of the Bible is God's intervention to restore to all mankind from what was lost at the Fall of Adam and Eve. Many people today are learning that they have distant Jewish ancestry. What does that mean? They are Jewish too. Not 25 % or 50%, but 100% Jewish- because God's covenant is not divided into fractions.
