Two key articles about the current Middle East crisis

If you are Christian ...

While the World watches

There's a cloud of confusion out there that is surrounding us all. It affects all of us, wherever we live, whatever our standing in life. It seeps through to us through the mass media, our window to the world, and because the glass has been tainted, we don't see the full picture, just a clever distortion. ... more

If you are Jewish ...

The Hope of Israel

I am a Jew. I speak as a "person of the Book". This book, the Bible, has defined us, sustained us and, because I believe it contains the very words of God, gives us hope for the future. Now if these words grate with you I ask you to sound me out, you really have nothing to lose except a few minutes of your time. Balance this against the possibility of what could be gained and this time could be well spent. ... more

EDITORIAL

Yet again it's been years since a decent update on this website. But this time current events compel us to a renovation, with the publication of the two articles you can see at the head of this page.

Expect to see additions to this website as we see fit.

Please pray for your brothers and sisters in Israel and Lebanon and ask the Lord to intervene in mercy and justice.

OUR DREAM

We would like Saltshakers to be a place of freedom and balance.

We believe that those born Gentile will always be so and should not strive for a false Jewishness, whether physical or spiritual, as that is not a good witness to Jews, who, having lost so much historically at the hands of "Christians", would see this hijacking of their Jewish identity as nothing but the worst kind of anti-Semitism and hardly an incentive to investigate the claims of Jesus. There is nothing wrong with feeding from the Jewish roots of Christianity to enrich one's faith, but let's not take it too far!

Equally we believe that Jews who become believers in Jesus (Yeshua) should not act in any way to provoke resentment from Gentile believers, by imposing behaviour patterns on believers, with the implication that those who do not do likewise are somehow deficient in their walk of faith. But we still love and respect those of you who do the above and expect to be respected by you in turn.
