Zion Christian Press is intended to be a destination for those who have just read one of the written tracts that have been published under the ZCP name. The goal of the site is to provide access to all of the ZCP literature free of charge both for those who might desire to distribute it and for those who have read one or more of the booklets and are intrigued enough to seek more info. The aim of ZCP is to reach God's ancient people, the Jews, with a Christian message from angles that may not have been considered before. That also entails reaching the church, those grafted into the commonwealth of Israel through the blood of the Lamb, with a challenge to look at what the scriptures are asking of those who have believed the report of God's amazing grace upon undeserving humanity. In essence, we are to become the message of God's favor not just receive it for ourselves and know it in our minds. So this could be called a ministry dedicated to Jewish Evangelism, but that would only be half the story, because it also involves an indictment of the Christian Church for failing historically and currently to embody the Lord's heart towards His covenant people. Therefore it could be said that we, as a whole, have failed to recognize the same Jesus that His contemporary Jewish community, as a whole, failed to recognize. As the Apostle Paul summarized at the end of Romans Chapters 9-11: God has bound all men over to unbelief so that He may have mercy upon them all. I do not delight in making people uncomfortable, but if the consideration of ideas that make one uncomfortable is a precursor to receiving the actual comfort of God Himself (as it has been in my own life), then it is not a vain or meaningless endeavor. This site is built upon several presuppositions: 1) That God exists. 2) That God communicates with His people, and that the most perfect written expression of His thoughts is found in the Bible. If you have not personally read at least the Torah (the first five books of the Bible), then you might be wasting your time here. Read it! 3) That God knows and cares about you personally, and that scripture indicates that through a Messiah He will intervene in your affairs and in the affairs of all men to deliver each one of us from those things that keep us from loving Him and serving Him with all of our heart, mind, soul and strength. The goal of this site is to paint a picture of God's righteous demands upon our lives, and the provision He has made to fulfill those demands. As Abraham said to Isaac, "God will provide Himself a lamb, my son." If that message is presented clearly, the self righteous might well become angry. Those who see their need for supernatural help from God could be jealous that someone less deserving beat them to the prize. And those who already believe should be challenged to take up the foolishness of proclaiming an unwanted message, and lovingly lay down their lives for the One who first laid down His life for them. Thank you for visiting. I hope you will look at the Online Reading sections, but ultimately my desire is that you will find that the scriptures themselves will be more opened up to you than they are currently, for in the scriptures are the words of Life if you will come to the Author and ask Him to help you understand. I pray that God will cause you to forget anything you encounter on this site that did not flow from His precious Word and His Holy Spirit. Sincerely, PS Please email me with any comments you may have. I welcome feedback of all types. Click HERE to go to the main page. |
