1. The actions of the believers in Yeshua as Messiah are part of the history of Israel.
   • The spread of the words of God to the world via exiles and P’rushim (Pharisee) evangelism prepared the world for the arrival of the living Word of God, the Salvation of God.
   • As with ancient Israel, some believed the testimony of God but many didn’t.
