The Word Of The Rabbinic Messiah

Thursday, September 6, 2018

There's a story in the rabbinic writings about the coming of Messiah. A man comes to the Prophet Elijah and asks, "Where can I find the Messiah?" Elijah answers, "You'll find Him at the city gates with the sick, the lepers, and the lame healing them." The man runs off but then later returns. "Did you find the Messiah?" Elijah asks. "Yes," says the man. "But he lied to me. I asked Messiah, "When are You going to come and save Your people, bring redemption, and set up Your Kingdom of peace and everlasting righteousness?" He told me "Today!" " Elijah looked at the man and said, "He spoke the truth! As it is written; Today, if you hear." These are the same words quoted in the Book of Hebrews regarding Messiah and you. So, when will Messiah come and bring peace in your life? When will you find His joy, know victory, and overcome? Today, if you hear. Messiah comes today for those who hear. So receive the good news by faith and the joy, peace, and abundant life will come. But it all begins... today, if you hear.
