Dont Call Me Christian

Paul Liberman believed in Destiny. He believed he had a Destiny. But what was behind Destiny? What made it work? Paul was obsessed with finding out. “I am certain there is more to life than can be seen.” The Liberman family arrived in New York from Minsk, Belarus in 1906. Paul’s grandfather, Bernard, was 12. The Libermans derived from a European world that for centuries consisted of two populations — Christians and Jews. Living side by side, but frequently in conflict, the line between the two groups was distinct — observed by all and frequently legally enforced. In 1918, Bernard founded the Liberman electrical supply company on the Southside of Chicago. Paul grew up working in the family business, but he sought more. Politics provided Paul’s way of escape and led him to Washington, DC where he routinely interacted with Senators and Congressmen. He even found himself in the White House for meetings. However, nothing in Washington satisfied or provided answers for his deepest longing. “How does destiny work? Who or what is behind it.” This is the story of how one Jew found his answer.

Fig Tree Blossoms
$14.99Add to cartJesus was a Jew. The writers of Scripture were Jews. The early church emerged in a Jewish environment. So why the tension between Jews and Christians, and why have so few Jews come to believe in the Messiah?
In The Fig Tree Blossoms, Paul Liberman uncovers the Jewish roots of the Christian faith and helps Gentile believers come to a deeper understanding of the historic issues that have fed Jewish suspicion of Christians and Christian prejudice toward Jews.
But in these last days, Liberman writes, God is using the emerging Messianic movement to bring many Jews into His kingdom and to awaken Gentile Christians to their Jewish faith heritage. Instead of casting blame or assigning guilt, Liberman calls Gentile Christians to embrace their Messianic brothers’ and sisters’ Jewish expressions of faith in much the same way Paul encouraged his fellow Jews to embrace Gentile believers who were entering the first century church.
Discover how the “fig tree”-the biblical symbol for the Jewish people-is blossoming, and how many will come to enjoy its fruit.
Paul Liberman became a believer in the Messiah in 1971. He was instrumental in founding Messianic congregations in Washington, D.C., and San Diego and co-led a congregation in Israel. For five years, he served as the Executive Director of the International Messianic Jewish Alliance and is currently Publisher of The Messianic Times newspaper, a board member of MAOZ, Inc. (Israel), and President of the Messianic Jewish Alliance of America.
