Shalom and greetings to all of you,
I am Rabbi Ben Avraham, an associate rabbi here in Houston, Texas in one of Houston''s Messianic Jewish congregations. I have been a rabbi since 2005. Ordained in Miami, FL through Shema Israel Inter. supported by Tikkun Ministries.
I have been uploading Bible/Torah studies for the past 10 years on other sites. This is the first time I have heard of "Christian Forums.net" .
Being Messianic IS being Christian, the difference being in linguistics. "Christian" coming from "Kristos" in Greek, and "Messianic" coming from the Hebrew "Mashiach" (Messiah). We believe in being "born again" through faith in Yeshua/Jesus, and dedicated to good works, obedience to God's Mitzvoth (Commandments) of course, those that are applicable today.
I graduated from Liberty University, in Lynchburg, VA in 1990, and then from Shema Israel in 2005. I have a wife named Judith, and we have 6 grown kids and 9 grandchildren. We are both senior citizens, We have two homes, one here in Houston and the other in El Salvador. I worked as a Special Education assistant in a high school here, and an online English instructor. Our home language is Spanish.
I am of Ashkenazi Jewish ancestry through my biological father, and Turkish-Armenian through my mother. I served as a volunteer chaplain with the Armed Forces of El Salvador, a volunteer worker with the IDF (Israel Defense Forces) A prison chaplain volunteer, and I am also a US Army Veteran, (1972-1984) . (HoooYaaa! Once a soldier always a soldier)
I would like to post our weekly Torah study portions under "Theology" these have the "Jewish flavor" I am also the author of the eBook, "God Tales" which you can read under "short story sharing" on "On-line LIterature" website. Or you can request a free copy from me at any time.
So, Shalom v'brachot (Peace and Blessings)
