The pages of the Bible paint a vivid portrait of the Messiah, OUR SAVIOR and Kinsman Redeemer, The HOLY ONE sent from God who will rule and reign in righteousness. And those of us who LOVE God want to KNOW HIM as we continue in our study of Jesus, Yeshua, יֵשׁוּעַ.



The Bible describes the Rule and Reign of the Messiah throughout the Old and New Testaments.

This is the hope of every Jewish person who loves God, that one day their Messiah will reign over Israel in righteousness, and put down those her enemies.



And as Christians, we understand that to be Jesus’s SECOND coming. But His FIRST coming was to redeem the world from death and sin. And as Christians, we don’t always appreciate the wisdom and beauty of God’s amazing plan. In fact, it is so COUNTER-INTUITIVE to HUMAN EXPECTATION concerning the MAJESTY of God, that it is a stumbling block for JEWS to THIS DAY, just as Isaiah and the Psalms prophesied.



I talk with many Jewish people, and one conversation particularly comes to mind from a visit to Israel with a man in Judea/ Samaria who was an officer in the IDF.



“We Jews respect Jesus, and we believe that he was a great man, but we do not believe that he was the Messiah.”



I asked Him why not. He said, “The Messiah will come in VICTORY, and will be received like a Hero. He will put down Israel’s enemies, and rule on the throne of David, not suffer and die a shameful death.”



He was an officer in the military, and had seen battles in his day, and so I asked Him, “In the IDF, what makes someone a HERO?”

And he thought for a minute, then said, “If he risks his life to save others, or gives his life…”



I said, “How can the Messiah come in VICTORY as a GREAT HERO if he never did such a thing? Jesus/Yeshua/ יֵשׁוּעַ laid down his life to save His people from death. Then He CONQUERED DEATH, and rose to life again."



And I showed him that Isaiah’s prophecy calls the Messiah: EL GEBOR, אֵל גִּבּוֹר, which is translated into English as MIGHTY GOD. The Hebrew word GEBOR (mighty) is the same word they use for HERO. So the Messiah is actually the GOD who BECOMES our HERO FOR US.



So just as a Hero must LAY DOWN HIS LIFE FOR OTHERS, the Jewish Messiah has these 2 ROLES, to suffer as the HAG, חַג or Passover lamb, to be the KINSMEN REDEEMER of the whole world. By THIS he has EARNED THE RIGHT to be the conquering HERO "Gebor" גִּבּוֹר, Who GAVE HIMSELF for his nation, Israel, AND for the WHOLE WORLD.



By His SACRIFICE, He has earned the RIGHT to REIGN over the WHOLE WORLD.

Listen to Season Watch Saturdays at 3:00, where we observe the things coming on the earth through Biblical binoculars, because the Bible is both timely and timeless.

The show seeks discuss the topics of the day in light of the Bible, its prophecies, and promises. We will examine the signs of the times and evaluate what they might indicate about the prophetic clock, the condition of the church, and our responsibilities as followers of Jesus.

We will also discuss how to share the glorious Truth of God’s Word and the Gospel of grace with others, as well as answer your questions concerning Apologetics, Creation Science, and end-times events.

Season Watch will host local ministries, special guests, and as always, tackle your Biblical, Creation, and apologetics questions to help us spread the Gospel as we “see the day approaching.”



"Watch therefore, and pray always that you may be counted worthy to escape all these things that will come to pass, and to stand before the Son of Man." Luke 21:36



Wendy has her Master’s degree in Rhetoric & Writing Studies from San Diego State University, and is a part-time lecturer with local San Diego colleges and universities.

She uses the academic process of curiosity, critical thinking, and research to examine “the whole council of God,” as well as “the wisdom of man” in order to discover the trustworthiness of the Bible, and God’s faithfulness through Creation. Wendy has given public talks on topics such as The Scientific Facts of Creation, Speaking Truth in a Post 2020 Culture, and Knowing the Constitution.

Wendy has traveled on several outreach missions to Russia, China, Mexico, and locations within the United States, in addition to her personal travels to Europe, Israel, and Jordan.

In her weekly evangelical outreach, she shares the love, truth, and hope of Jesus with other San Diegans. Over her years of sharing, Wendy has encountered many views, beliefs, cultural mindsets, and fears that influence those who have not received Jesus. Through this process of Biblical study, God has shown her how to respond to skeptics with the truth, logic, and Holy Spirit inspiration, just as Jesus promised, with such “wisdom which all your adversaries will not be able to contradict or resist” (Luke 21:15).

It’s time for the church to wake up and get to work.
