Throughout His ministry Yeshua the Messiah displayed Kingdom power. He preached the good news of the Kingdom, cast out devils, healed the sick and even raised the dead by that awesome power. In fact, in the greatest display of Kingdom power of all time He even overcame death itself when He Himself was raised from the dead! For a period of forty days after His resurrection He taught His chosen Emissaries about the Kingdom and promised them the same Kingdom power that He had demonstrated. As we begin a fresh look at the Acts of the Emissaries we will consider Messiah’s promise of Kingdom power, what that power is, what that power was meant to accomplish, and what He taught them about the Kingdom. We will also consider the “rapture” of Messiah and what that means for the “rapture” of believers. All of this is essential information regarding the foundation of the early believing community and is still fundamentally important for all talmidim / disciples today!

Our primary sources for this teaching are The Gospel According To John and quotations of Jerome from The Gospel According to the Hebrews, an account of the earthly life and resurrection of Messiah Yeshua first written in Hebrew and held sacred within the first century Nazarean community of believers. This source reports on the resurrection appearance of Messiah to His brother, commonly known as James the Just / Yakov HaTsadeek. While Paul affirms that Messiah appeared to Yakov / James after His resurrection this appearance to Yakov / James is not reported on anywhere in the traditional New Testament Scriptures, leaving a significant gap in the NT resurrection report. That makes the resurrection report from The Gospel According to the Hebrews all the more valuable, since it fills in information known to be lacking from the traditional four Gospels. This important information significantly fills out the picture of what happened after the resurrection of Messiah and helps to lay a foundation of understanding of the role of James the Just / Yakov HaTsadeek among the early believers.

After His bodily resurrection Yeshua the Messiah appeared to many over a period of 40 days, before finally returning to His Father in Heaven. Everyone to whom He appeared after His resurrection was profoundly changed by the encounter. In this program we consider the eye-witness reports of some of those encounters from Mark and Luke, and draw important lessons from them. We also consider some fascinating historical information regarding the two talmidim / disciples whom the resurrected Messiah walked, taught and ate with in the Emmaus visitation. They were, in fact, Yeshua’s uncle Klofah / Clopas and his cousin, son of Clopas, Simon / Simeon / Shimon who became a great leader among the believers and was martyred at an advance age, still holding to his testimony of the resurrected Yeshua the Messiah. Though these witnesses had their flaws, as do we all, this world is not worthy of men and women like these!
