Christian Witness to Israel North America
Telling Jewish People about Jesus since 1842
Our Mission Statement:
To advance the Christian Faith by acting as an interdenominational evangelistic agency,
…to proclaim the Good News of Gospel of Jesus the Messiah to the Jewish People throughout the entire world,
…to assist and challenge the Church to fulfill this task with a particular focus on the USA and neighboring countries.
A Reformed Heritage…
“There is great encouragement in prophecy to those who work among the seed of Israel;
…and it is greatly needed, for of all mission fields it has been commonly represented to be one of the most barren, and upon the work the utmost ridicule has been poured. God has, therefore, supplied our faith with encouragements larger than we have in almost any other direction of service. Let those who believe work on! Those who believe not may give it up. They shall not have the honor of having helped to gather together the ancient nation to which our Lord himself belonged; for be it never forgotten that Jesus was a Jew.”
-C.H. Spurgeon
“I could stay out of heaven many years to see that victorious triumphing Lord act that prophesied part of His soul conquering love, in taking into His kingdom the greater Sister, the Jews
….Oh, what joy and what glory would I judge it, if my heaven should be suspended till I might have left to run on foot to be a witness of that marriage-glory, and see Christ put on the glory of His last-married bride, and His last marriage love on earth; when He shall enlarge His love-bed, and set it upon the top of the mountains, and take in the Elder Sister, the Jews, and the fulness of the Gentiles!”
-Samuel Rutherford
…a Modern Movement
“The mission of Christian Witness to Israel is to proclaim the gospel of Jesus Christ to the Jewish people. I love that mission, and I love the theology that lies behind it.”
~Dr Jerry O’Neill, President Emeritus of the Reformed Presbyterian Theological Seminary, Pittsburgh PA
“The Westminster Assembly counseled Reformed churches to pray regularly ‘for the propagation of the gospel and kingdom of Christ to all nations,’ and ‘for the conversion of the Jews.’ For more than 175 years CWI has been a living embodiment of that prayer as Reformed Christians reach out in love to Jewish people in the name of Jesus the Messiah. Pray with me for God’s abundant blessing upon CWI’s ministry, so that divine revival may break through among His ancient covenant people.”
