Promise
Covenant, Israel, Judah and Messianic expectation in the Hebrew Scriptures.
King Jesus is the Promised and Returning Messiah. The witness of Scripture unfolds one redemptive story: the promise of Messiah, His First Advent as the suffering Messiah, His sacrificial work, resurrection and glorification, and His promised return as the exalted King.
“Behold, the Lion of the tribe of Juda, the Root of David, hath prevailed.”Revelation 5:5
The Messianic witness is rooted in the Hebrew Scriptures: in covenant, promise, the chosen nation of Israel, the Tribe of Judah, and the expectation of the One who would come to redeem and reign.
God’s covenant with Abraham established a redemptive promise that reaches beyond one generation. The biblical story then narrows through Israel and the Tribe of Judah, from which the promised ruler and Messiah would come.
The Lion of Judah Ministries therefore approaches the Messiah within the continuity of the Hebrew Scriptures and the New Testament: promise and fulfilment belong to one unfolding revelation.
Jesus the Messiah stands at the center of the ministry’s proclamation: the promised One, the Lamb of God, the Lion of Judah, the risen Lord, and the King who will return.
The ministry teaches the identity and work of Messiah as one continuous biblical movement rather than disconnected events.

The appearance of the promised Messiah in human history.
The suffering Messiah gives Himself as the sacrificial Lamb.
Christ is raised, glorified and exalted.
The exalted Messiah returns as King and the Lion of Judah.
The ministry proclaims Yeshua in His First Advent as the Messiah who suffers, gives Himself for redemption, and fulfils the sacrificial pattern that runs through Scripture.
In His First Advent, Christ is proclaimed as the suffering Messiah: rejected, afflicted and offered for redemption. The crown of thorns points to humiliation before glory; the cross points to the price of redemption.
The ministry understands the Akedah — the binding of Isaac — as a prophetic pattern pointing toward the Father’s provision and the sacrificial work of Jesus Christ.
The biblical account of Abraham and Isaac presents the provision of a substitute. LOJM teaches this as a foreshadowing of Jesus Christ, the Lamb of God, provided for redemption.
His death is not the end of the Messianic story. The suffering Messiah is also the risen and exalted Lord.
The proclamation of Messiah moves from sacrifice to resurrection and glorification. The One who suffered is the One who lives; the Lamb who was slain is also the Lion who has prevailed.
This is central to LOJM’s Christology: suffering and kingship are not competing identities. They meet in the same Messiah.
The same Jesus who came in humility will return in glory. The ministry looks to His Second Advent as Messiah ben David — the exalted Messiah-King — and to the Day of the Lord.
The Second Coming of the Eternal King of Glory is proclaimed as the blessed hope of those who belong to Him. LOJM waits for the Return of the King.
Christ Jesus the Promised seed in Genesis 3:15 came in His First Advent as the Suffering Messiah, i.e. Messiah ben Yosef (Joseph). But in His Second Advent Christ Jesus will return as the undisputed Glorious King of Israel, as Messiah ben David who will come to defeat Satan at Armageddon and reign for 1000 years from Jerusalem in the Millennial Reign. There are not two Messiahs but ONE Messiah that will come twice. We wait in patience and hope for The Return of King Jesus.
LOJM’s Messianic teaching places the work of Christ within the biblical pattern of the appointed times. The ministry teaches the spring festivals in relation to His First Advent and looks to the fall festivals in relation to His return.
The Lion of Judah Ministries exists to proclaim Yeshua HaMashiach from the promises of Scripture through His First Advent, redemptive work, resurrection and exaltation, to His promised return as King.
