Who we are and what we believe - messianic conservative Jews


The שובה לשורש SCHUWA LASCHORESCH Back to the Roots service was founded in March 1997 by the Yeshua-believer Israeli Baruch ben Mordechai Kogan (born in 1963, married, father of four children). Two synagogues have been founded in the name of YESHUA HAMELECH HAMASCHIACH in Berlin and Munich with G-d's help, and we hope that more will follow.

We, the SCHUWA team, come from different nations and languages and join forces to support our Rebbe Baruch. Our aim is to draw, with G-d's help, from Lord Yeshua's rich treasury of wisdom on the basis of the Torah of Moshe Rabbeinu, so we can know Mashiach, and through him our Heavenly Father, more intimately.

We hope that this will open a pathway for Jews and Gentiles to approach each other in faith and in the knowledge of the Lord Yeshua HaMaschiach. Amen.

Fidelity to the creed of Israel and the Torah of Moses


Rebbe Baruch's teaching and preaching is deeply rooted in his fidelity to the creed of Israel and the Torah of Moses, namely the written and the oral Torah. In its light, Rebbe Baruch not only interpretes the TANA "CH (the five books of Moses, Prophets and Writings), but also the whole Gospel. Thus, the message of the Lord Yeshua is revealed in a "new" way or, to put it differently, is linked back to its roots. Rebbe Baruch's teaching focuses on three areas:

  • Creation, Torah and the covenants G-d made with His people
  • repentance, Israel and Mashiach
  • liturgy and its meaning

 

This means:

  • we are and believe in accordance with the 13 principles of faith of Israel formulated by R. Mosche Ben Maimon (רמב״ם)
  • Jeschua (Jesus) is and was a human being as Israel expects the Moshiach (Messiah)
  • the rejection of Trinity as a clear violation of the 10 words at Mount Sinai (10 commandments)
