We believe in the\nbiblical principle of restoration. God made everything in the world \u201cvery good\u201d\n(Genesis 1:31). Yet, Adam’s sin and Satan’s rebellion caused much\ndestruction. God’s plan of redemption not only saves us from damnation,\nit also restores the damage that was caused.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

That restoration is\nfirst personal. Our spirit, soul, and body are redeemed. However, God’s\nrestoration is also general, and includes everything in the world. Personal\nrestoration is better known in the Christian world, while world restoration is\nbetter known in the Jewish world. The New Covenant includes both.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The traditional Jewish\nprayer, \u201cAleinu\u201d (It is incumbent upon us), which closes every service, three\ntimes per day, makes a petition \u201cto repair the world in the kingdom of El\nShaddai.\u201d The word here for \u201crepair\u201d is \u201cTikkun.\u201d [This is the name used for\nthe cooperative ministries with Dan Juster, Don Finto, David Rudolph, Eitan\nShishkoff, and Paul Wilbur.]<\/p>\n\n\n\n

World restoration\n(Tikkun Olam) is central not only to the Tikkun ministry, but to the worldview\nof the kingdom of God. There are five passages in the New Covenant that speak\nspecifically of world restoration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Matthew 17 \u2013<\/strong> The Church<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Romans 11 \u2013<\/strong> The Messianic remnant<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Matthew 19 \u2013<\/strong> Natural Creation<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Acts 1 \u2013<\/strong> Kingdom of Israel Acts 3 \u2013 All Things<\/p>\n\n\n\n

MATTHEW\n17:11 Elijah is coming first and will restore all things.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yeshua prophesies that\nsomeone in the spirit and power of Elijah will come \u201cfirst\u201d \u2013 that means before\nYeshua returns. The \u201cdays of Elijah\u201d restoration will take place before the 2nd\nComing. The phrase, \u201call things,\u201d cannot mean all things in the world, because\nthat will only happen after Yeshua returns. This restoration is parallel to the\nprophecy that \u201cthe bride will make herself ready\u201d (Revelation 19:7). The\nelements of the kingdom of God will be restored within the community of faith\nbefore Yeshua returns. When He returns, what is within the people of God will\nbe revealed and given to the nations. A central theme of prophetic ministry in\nour generation is the restoration of the true Church as we approach the 2nd\nComing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ROMANS\n11:15 What will their restoration be but life from the dead?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

There will also be a\nrestoration of the Messianic remnant of Israel. This dual restoration can be\nseen in Revelation 7:4 and 9. The elements to be restored are those found in\nthe early community of faith in the book of Acts. There we see sacrificial\nlove, extravagant giving, bold evangelism, miraculous signs, and unity of the\nsaints.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The end times remnant\nof Israel will be even stronger than the apostolic community of the first\ncentury (Romans 11:12). The revival of the end times will be greater than the\nrevival they experienced (Acts 2:17). The Messianic remnant will be a key\nelement leading to the resurrection of the dead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

MATTHEW\n19:28 In the regeneration, when the Son of Man sits on the throne of His glory,\nyou who have followed Me will also sit on twelve thrones, judging the twelve\ntribes of Israel.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

As both the\ninternational Church and the remnant of Israel come into their fullness (Romans\n11:15 and 25), they will together call upon Yeshua to return (Matthew 23:39,\nRevelation 22:20). At that time, the kingdom of God will be established on the\nearth for a thousand years. This Millennial kingdom will include two key\nelements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The first is \u201cregeneration.\u201d\nThe Hebrew translation says, \u201crenewal of creation.\u201d The Greek original is paliggenesia<\/em>. Pali<\/em> means\n\u201cagain\u201d and genesia<\/em> means \u201cgenesis,\u201d like creation in the book\nof Genesis. Natural creation will be redeemed (Romans 8:19-22). The heavens and\nearth will be renewed as they were immediately after the flood of Noah (II\nPeter 3:3-5). People will begin to live longer lives (Isaiah 65:17, 20).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The second element is\na worldwide kingdom with its capital in Jerusalem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ACTS\n1:6 Will You at this time restore the kingdom to Israel?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The apostles expected\nYeshua to restore the Davidic kingdom immediately upon His resurrection from\nthe dead. However, He told them they first had to receive the Holy Spirit and\npreach the gospel to the nations. His kingdom was to be international, not just\nIsraelite; and spiritual, not just governmental. It is a renewal and expansion\nof the Davidic kingdom (Isaiah 2:2-4). The former dominion will be restored\n(Micah 4:8).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yeshua will sit upon\nHis throne in Jerusalem; the apostles will sit on twelve thrones governing the\ntribes of Israel. Those who have \u201cfollowed Him\u201d will sit on thrones governing\nthe rest of the nations when Yeshua returns in glory (Matthew 16:27; 19:28;\n24:30; 24:46- 47; 25:21; 25:31; 26:64).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ACTS\n3:21 Whom the heavens must receive until the time of the restoration of all\nthings; which God has spoken by the mouth of all His prophets since the world\nbegan.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ultimately, God will\nrestore all things. There is nothing that will not be restored. This includes\neverything planned at creation; everything prophesied to Israel; everything\npromised to the Church. It includes all things in heaven and earth (Ephesians\n1:10). God’s commitment to restore all things is a source of great hope and\nencouragement to us all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
