About us
Our Messianic Jewish community began in 1999 with a local congregation of Messianic Jews in the city of Oradea, Romania. The foundation on which this Community was built was Kitvey HaKodesh – the Hebrew Holy Scriptures and later the Aramaic Holy Scriptures, restored, without the imprint of later human, linguistic (Greek, Latin… etc.) and doctrinal (influence of certain denominations) changes.
Thus, formally, the first Community of Messianic Jews in Romania was established a few years later. Today, we have communities in Romania and the Republic of Moldova. The establishment of several communities is planned both in Romania and in surrounding countries, as well as in some more distant ones. In addition to establishing new local communities, we are also open to other communities or congregations who wish to join us or collaborate.
We are also open for cooperation with the Orthodox (Mosaic) Jewish community as well as with Christian churches and organizations in any locality, in the countries where we have local communities as well as in other countries. We also mention here that we are not Orthodox (Mosaic) Jews nor Christians, but Messianic Jews. And our creed is Messianic Judaism (not Rabbinic Judaism or Christianity).
The leaders of our federation and of our communities are Jewish, but non-Jews are welcome as members, in accordance with HaBrit HaChadashah, the New Covenant. And we maintain a good relationship with other Christian denominations that are open to us and respect us.
The president of our Messianic Jewish federation is Mr. Shaliach David Nagy, who together with the other leaders are the founders of our federation. A federation on a national level but which in time has become international. David Nagy, the president of our federation, officially entered the calling of Shaliach, Jewish Apostle of our federation, according to HaBrit HaChadashah / New Covenant, in 2015.
In Oradea, Romania operates the first Messianic synagogue in Romania after World War II. The building is in a very significant location. It is located on the street that was part of the former Jewish ghetto and where the trains carrying Jews who were taken to extermination used to pass. It is about the 27260 Jews, including thousands of children, women and old people. People whose (only) fault was that they were Jews. So, on this street that once meant certain death for our Jewish people, there now stands a Messianic synagogue that means eternal life for both Jews and non-Jews. This street is now called „Evreilor Deportați”(“Deported Jews”) street.
Our federation was established with the aim of uniting the Messianic Jewish communities in Romania and those abroad who belong to us, and to be a spiritual and doctrinal landmark that correctly represents the creed of authentic Messianic Judaism in Romania and abroad, where we are present and/or known.
Our primary goal is the restoration of the original creed as it was in the time of the early Shlichims (Jewish Apostles) with the necessary adaptation to the present times, especially the 5 main ministries listed by Shaul ha’shaliach (Apostle Pawlos) in Efesim (Ephesians) 4:11, where it is written: “And He gave some: Shlichims, and some, Prophets, and some, Evangelists, and some, Shepherds, and some, Teachers.” (Translated from the original Aramaic by Mr. Shaliach (Apostle) David). Today in our communities several offices/works established by Adonay Elohim in the Dvar HaElohim / Word of Elohim have been restored and put into office, such as Zaken – the leader of a local community/congregation of Messianic Jews, Manhig – leader on a particular area, Shamash, Ozer… etc
Also with the aim that Jews and non-Jews receiving eternal life offered through the sacrifice of our Lord, Yeshua HaMashiach, the first permanent exhibition in a museum of Messianic Jews or Messianic Jewry in the world was established, also in Oradea. Yet another miracle performed by Adonay Elohey Israel for both the Jewish people and all believers among the nations who have the opportunity to believe in Him, to return to Him (tshuvah – repentance) and to be spiritually born again through faith in the Elohim of Israel and in His Son.
