Ministry Purpose The Bible Study Project exists to disseminate detailed, in-depth understanding of the written Word of God for the salvation of the lost and for the purity of worship, fellowship and service of all who already belong to the Lord Jesus Christ.
This ministry joins the many others so dedicated; yet, there is a particular contribution that this ministry offers that many do not: the understanding of many portions of Scripture from the vantage point of the Jewish mind-set of the writers and speakers of both Testaments and of the many Jewish people they wrote of, wrote to, spoke of and spoke to, thereby shedding light on Bible situations and passages that the reader may otherwise be unaware of. Often, critical matters of interpretation rest on just such understanding.
Though the outreach is to all and for the benefit of all, a particular burden abides in my heart - the same burden that the apostle to the Gentiles carried, though I cannot say that I carry it to the same degree! I have great sorrow and unceasing grief in my heart. For I could wish that I myself were accursed, separated from Christ for the sake of my brethren, my kinsmen according to the flesh, who are Israelites(Romans 9:2-4).
False doctrine in the synagogue and the church has brought tragedies of holocaust proportions upon the Jews and has misled or driven countless multitudes of them into an eternity without their Messiah. I not only dedicate my life to the dissemination of sound doctrine across the board, but bear a particular concern as to what Scripture truly says about Israel and the Jew, how God views them, and how the church is to relate to them.
Ministry Facts At the time of this writing (April, 2010), BibleStudyProject.org is accessed by over a hundred people a day - from Israel, Iran, Saudi Arabia, India, China, South Korea, Zambia, Nigeria, Hungary, remote islands in the sea, and on and on. Many of the studies first appeared in the Shofar, the email magazine of the Association of Messianic Congregations, and have been read by scores of Jewish Christian leaders in the United States and abroad, and by seminary professors, and are used in church, congregational and home Bible studies in different parts of the world.
Ministry Vision It is the hope of this ministry to multiply the number of studies and their readership, to make the studies available in various hard copy and on-line formats in English and other languages, and to upgrade this website.
The Need This project requires material and on-line expenses and thousands of hours of time. From its inception in April, 2007 until December, 2009, no financial support was requested or received; but the foundation has been laid and the doors are now open to receive the gracious gifts of those who would like to jump into the vision and are able and willing to provide the financial fuel to bring it to pass. I receive no salary for this work, but earn a modest income as a public school substitute teacher. Sufficient funding would allow me to reduce the number of days I substitute teach and increase the number of days I give to Bible Study Project.
