Hi Pastor Vitale,
I found your site and just had a question. I
study Kabbalah in Toronto, through The Kabbalah Learning Centre. I was born
Roman Catholic and am now considered an Yisrealite. What is the difference
between what I am studying and what you teach?
Thanks,
XXX

Hello XXX
Kabbalah alone is an antichrist message in that it denies that Jesus Christ is Messiah.
Christ-Centered Kabbalah intergrates the understanding of the New Testament with Kabbalah, thus completing it.
I don't know what you have experienced that would result in your being considered a Yisraelite, but Paul teaches that in Christ Jesus we are the Israel of God:
Gal 6:15 For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision availeth anything, nor uncircumcision, but a new creature.
16 And as many as walk according
to this rule, peace be on them, and mercy, and upon the Israel of God.
KJV
By "circumcision," Paul means the natural/physical Jew. Paul is saying that it no longer matters whether you are a natural/physical Jew [this includes being born Jewish or being made Jewish by ritual, ceremony or by a status granted as a result of study].
Now that the spiritual reality of the Scripture [the fulfillment of the Scripture] is made available to us through Christ Jesus, the only way to be an Israelite is through a PERSONAL RELATIONSHIP with the RISEN, INDWELLING CHRIST.
Rom 3:22
22 Even the righteousness of God
which is by faith of Jesus Christ unto all and upon all them that believe: for
there is no difference:
KJV
Rom 8:10
10 And if Christ be in you, the
body is dead because of sin; but the Spirit is life because of righteousness.
KJV
1 Cor 1:30
30 But of him are ye in Christ
Jesus, who of God is made unto us wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification,
and redemption:
KJV
Phil 3:9
9 And be found in him, not having
mine own righteousness, which is of the law, but that which is through the faith
of Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith:
KJV
Col 1:27
27 To whom God would make known
what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles; which is
Christ in you, the hope of glory:
KJV
God bless you.
