Project Ingrafting began with the desire to see the fulfillment of Roman's 11:24, which foretells the recovery of the Church's Jewishness. In fact, this may have begun.

      If you are Jewish and a New Testament reference offends you--or if Christian and fear some form of legalism is implied--don't judge too quickly. The question is not one of which side to support, but of truth.

      Today, there may be more Jewish Christians than since the first church was totally Jewish. Sadly, though, too many Christian leaders mistrust the "Messianic Movement" while Rabbinic leaders deny that one can be both Jewish and Christian. Thus, there is often hostility to this fact from both sides--but it is still a fact. It is in this world of misperception, and on occasion, hostility, that Project Ingrafting has worked through the years.

      It is our hope that we can alleviate some of the misunderstanding that exists. We do have a set perception through which we see the world, however. it is that, first and foremost, there is a Creator God who is worthy of our allegiance and obedience.

      It is our conviction that Jesus of Nazareth is the Messiah of Israel and the Savior of the world. Further, we are committed to the view that the Bible--both the Hebrew and the Greek scriptures--are the self-revelation of God and that where they claim to be, are a historical record. We further hold that this record can not be dismissed because it's purpose is religious anymore than mathematics can be rejected because it is agnostic.

      You may have noticed that we haven't "dropped any names" so far. There's why. Too often in our current culture, people form their beliefs by who said so, rather than by the factualness of what was said. This seems a poor basis on which to believe anything, so we have adopted an early rabbinic practice--in a modified fashion. Initially, they wrote anonymously. After all, if one shares God's truth, who would dare take credit for it--and if not, why should anyone value it? So it is that we would hope our words stand on their own merit, rather than who says them.
