Special Congregational Worship Night Turns Into Two Straight Hours of the Song “Good Good Father”

Unknown

Brooklyn, NY – A special congregational worship night at Beth Tikvah Messianic Congregation turned into an endless loop of “Good Good Father” after The Spirit moved the worship leaders around and around in a circle until they couldn’t spin anymore. Unsuspecting attending congregants kept waiting for the song to change and it never did.

“We’ve had this worship night planned for quite a while,” said worship leader, Sarah Levy. “Honestly, I had never even heard the song ‘Good Good Father’ before, and then my friend, Danielle Tokajer, told me her husband, Rabbi David Tokajer, sings the song in the shower every single day and that inspired me to listen to it. The song was just so magical. I got caught up in it and just couldn’t stop playing it. This song is really a blessing to everyone that hears it. I also know Joshua Aaron is working on a Hebrew translation and we can’t wait to be able to start using “Tov Tov Abba” as a tool to worship The Lord in addition to the English version.”

Levy says they plan on having these special worship nights periodically, especially with the release of her upcoming album “Good Good Album” which is due out sometime this fall.

Tree of Life Messianic Congregation Changes Name to The Real Complete Jewish Synagogue

Unknown

San Diego, CA – Tree of Life Messianic Congregation of San Diego opted to change its name this week, following the announcement of Tree of Life Version Bible changing its name to The Real Complete Jewish Bible. The announcement came as kind of a shock, and also kind of not.

“As soon as TLV announced it was changing its name, I knew what we had to do,” said congregational Rabbi Joel Liberman. “We love sharing a name with a translation of the bible, so not following suit on the name change would mean we no longer have that name in common, so the choice was clear. Besides, calling our congregation ‘The Real Complete Jewish Synagogue’ lets the world know that we are a congregation of completed Jews (and gentiles)! And how can we go wrong when we announce that to the world?”

Tree of Life Congregation is expected to officially change its name sometime after the high holidays. Until then, their web site treeoflifeca.org will remain the same. The new name will be up for review again in a year when they decide whether or not they want to be called The New International King James Message Congregation.

Tree of Life Version Bible Changes Name to The Real Complete Jewish Bible

screen1136x1136

Rome, GA – Big news out of Rome, GA this week as The Messianic Jewish Family Bible Society announced this week that the Tree of Life Version Bible (TLV) would officially be changing its name to The Real Complete Jewish Bible (RCJB). Just three days after announcing the release of the new Tree of Life Family Bible, the new name change comes as sort of a shock, and also sort of not.

“As far as we know, we’re the first official Messianic Jewish translation of The Bible,” Daniah Greenberg, President and CEO of The Messianic Jewish Family Bible Society, said in an early Monday morning press conference. “Calling it the Tree of Life Version Bible doesn’t really tell people what our translation stands for, whereas ‘The Real Complete Jewish Bible’ lets everyone know…this is a Jewish translation. This is not a translation where The Messiah is called Jesus Christ and this is not a translation where 1st and 2nd Chronicles come before Isaiah. Besides, what is ‘TLV?’ That’s not a bible translation, that’s an airport code! RCJB will be much more widely recognized as a Messianic Jewish biblical translation than TLV is, though I can’t figure out why.”

The Messianic Jewish Family Bible Society plans to liquidate their inventory of bibles with the old name and start producing bibles with the new name in early 2017. For more information on how to purchase the TLV or the RCJB please visit treeoflifeversion.com or familybiblesociety.org

Exposé: Closet-Messianic Celebrities Outed by Big Mouthed Members of the Community

WW77_special4_CatStaggs

Bob Dylan, Lynda Carter, Glen Campbell, Gabby Douglas, Justin Bieber. None of these people are actually Messianic…or are they??

The rumors have flown throughout the Messianic Movement for years. “So and so came to my congregation with their girlfriend, grandmother, etc.” “I met them!” “My cousin’s Father’s next door neighbor’s sister’s dog sat next to them at Shul.” Blah blah blah.

But what is the truth? The Messianic Meow investigates:

Wikipedia has confirmed that Glen Campbell considers himself to be Messianic.

Stacy Goebbel of Beth Messiah Columbus confirms that Gabby Douglas has been to her congregation on more than one occasion.

Googling Lynda Carter has confirmed that she attends or at least previously attended a Messianic Congregation at one point.

Justin Bieber has a tattoo in Hebrew that says “Yeshua,” but really, do we even want him?? 😛

And Bob Dylan…well, every single Baby Boomer Messianic has done drugs with Bob Dylan before they became a believer, including the late David Ben-Gurion. Or so they say.

Each of these celebrities probably just wants to be left alone to live their life, but will that happen? Well, my friends, they’ve chosen to be part of the wrong culture if they don’t want word to get around faster than Usain Bolt finds new Brazilian girlfriends.

Of course we’d love to claim them all as our own, but if they really wanted that, we wouldn’t have to dig. We’ve definitely got Shae Wilbur and Avi Kaplan of Pentatonix, so let’s worry about more important things, like what kind of spread will be at Oneg on Saturday.

Until next time, this has been The Messianic Meow Investigates.

Messianic Times Introduces New Affiliate Web Site Yeshuaslist.org

Unknown

Pensacola, FL – The Messianic Times had a special announcement this week as they prepare to release a new Messianic version of Craigslist. The classifieds web site is being rolled out just in time for the upcoming high holiday season, giving everyone a comprehensive list of all Messianic high holiday services nationwide.

“It’s necessary,” said Messianic Times Director, Rabbi Eric Tokajer. “People want to know what’s happening, not just in their own city, but in the greater Messianic community. What if someone wants to visit another city or even relocate? This will enable them to see what’s out there and maybe even find a new job, congregation, or a place to stay. Messianics want to connect with their friends across the globe and this is the most effective way to do that.”

The new web site will be set up similarly to Craigslist: it will be broken down by city/state, and it will have job postings, property rentals and sales, congregational events, and of course personals. While not every subcategory from Craigslist will appear on Yeshuaslist, such as “Casual Encounters,” Yeshuaslist will see new subcategories such as “Conference Crushes,” rendering the Twitter account Messianic_Crush obsolete.

Tokajer said that having this web site as its own entity and not just a page on messianictimes.com will garner more attention to both web sites, drawing a much larger audience to both mediums. Yeshuaslist.org will allow anyone to post ads and is expected to be a pillar in the realm of Messianic social networking. Sadly, the release date is still classified.
