Brothers & Sisters of the Kingdom with a mission
to convert the nations to Jesus Messiah
Questionnaire For Conversion And
Fellowship
Could you be a disciple in the days of Jesus?
Would you forsake all to follow him: even your family, your religion,
your employment, your educational achievement, and your friends? Would you
put the Messiah and his Kingdom first in your life? Would you place
the interpretations and teachings of Jesus and his Apostles higher than the
theories and opinions of other men and women? Are you prepared to take
the yoke of the Kingdom upon you? Has the Lord Jesus called you out
from religious organizations and denominations and you feel a burden to be
original Messianic? Is there a desire in your heart to return to the
values and morality of the followers of Jesus? Will you surrender your
life and will to Jesus for the glory of his Kingdom on earth? If so, then
you have a true sincere heart and soul. Fill out the
questionnaire-application if you desire to join with the proud, the brave,
the endtime Messianic Disciples of Jesus Messiah (note, filling out
the questionnaire is not salvation and is not intended to exclude anyone
from the Kingdom, but to determine the compatibility of the applicant with
our mission and goal, by examination of a person's spirit, attitude, and
love for the truth).
Fellowship Questionnaire
The purpose of any fellowship is to advance the common goals and objectives
that brings a group together. The goals and objectives of the Jesus Messiah
Fellowship are contained in the name we have chosen around which to identify
our purpose. First, the name of Jesus is the name of the Messiah who is the
son of David and heir of the throne of Israel. He is God manifest in
the flesh in fulfillment of Psalms 132:11. We are Apostolic. By Apostolic
we mean New Covenant believers in the full acceptance of the Apostle's doctrine
which was given to them by our Lord Jesus Messiah. We believe the New Covenant
is the New Torah and it is our only rule for faith, doctrine, and practice.
Second, we are Messianic: By Messianic we mean that the eternal purpose of
God for mankind is revealed in the Messianic hope and is the central theme
of all the Scriptures. Third, we are a fellowship: By fellowship we mean
a group of Brothers and Sisters uniting without the necessity of a religious
organization with multiple levels in a political hierarchy. Fellowship
was first recognized as a mutual bond where each walked in the light of the
Messianic faith of Jesus, and upon this basis, were in unity one with another
and with Jesus as the head of the Church, the Messianic Israel of God.
The fellowship does not ordain ministers. We do not find Scriptural warrant
for women preachers in the New Testament. Scriptural ordination of
men must be performed by a Messianic Pastor and in accordance with the trial
of conduct, character, and doctrine, as set forth by the Apostle Paul. If
you do not have such a Pastor then arrangements can be made for ordination.
Certificates of ordination are issued by the ordaining Pastor. The
fellowship issues a fellowship certificate to each accepted Minister that
recognizes his calling as a Messianic Minister of the Gospel. A certificate
of conversion is issued to everyone who completes conversion classes and
who converts to the Messianic Judaism of Jesus as found in Acts 2:38. If
you have already fulfilled Acts 2:38 by grace through faith and desire to
become Messianic from a Pentecostal or Apostolic background, conversion classes
are still mandatory. Rebaptism is not required but is recommended.
A certificate will be issued providing the following questionnaire
is completed, giving us reason to believe you have been converted to the
Messianic Gospel of Jesus and that you do have a burden to spread the Messianic
Gospel of the Kingdom to the nations. Your offerings to help support
Messiah's Gospel are appreciated. If you have not done so, please consider
providing a blessing to this Ministry in your will.
