A Call to Abraham – From Christianity Back to the God of Israel
A Kohen descendant’s journey from Christianity to Judaism.
A Kohen descendant’s journey from Christianity to Judaism. Science confirms Torah truths—such as the age of ancient Jericho and lost knowledge. Christians, Messianics: Come home like Abraham did. Keywords: Call to Abraham, journey from Christianity to Judaism, Torah ahead of science, oldest city Jericho, Adam intelligent lost technology, Ezekiel 16 Hittites, Kohen family New Mexico A Call to Abraham I’m sitting here in a quiet place—no synagogue bells, no minyan, no Jewish community for miles.
Just me, a direct line through my grandfather, the Kohen, back to the priests who served in the Temple. My blood ties me to Israel, to the land, to the people. I traced it all—family names like Denis Otero, Henrietta Christmas, and Susan Rue. Henrietta and Susan wrote books on New Mexico history, digging into our roots in New Spain and showing how deep they go. Colonial families, land grants, and old baptisms turned into genealogies. They make no Jewish connections in their books, just history.
Grandson Of A Kohen
But the real discovery? I’m a Jew. A grandson of a Kohen. And I came home after years in Christianity. It started with Abraham. They told me the story was about Jesus—sacrifice, blood, resurrection. I believed it. Then I read Deuteronomy. Chapter four. Chapter thirteen. Exodus thirteen. Torah says: When you have a question, go to your elders, your mother, your father. Ask them. If they don’t know, don’t accept it. So I asked my Jewish family. They looked at me like I’d asked about the moon. Abraham and Isaac? Not about a messiah dying on the third day.
It was about Abraham almost giving up the land for peace with Abimelech. God tested him: Lose your son. He chose obedience. Land stayed. Lesson: faithfulness, not atonement. That cracked it open. Joshua twenty-four: Your fathers served other gods beyond the river. Ezekiel sixteen three: Your father was an Amorite, your mother a Hittite. God says straight up—Jerusalem, Israel, you’re no better than the other nations. I chose you anyway. No boasting. No superiority. Just grace. I took you from the dirt, from idol worship, from Hittite blood, and made you Mine. Christians and Messianics, you say you’re grafted in.
Fine. But look at your fathers. Same thing. Joshua said it. Ezekiel repeated it. We all started in the same place—idolaters, strangers. Now look at science. It’s catching up to what Torah always said. Take Jericho—the oldest continuously inhabited city. Wikipedia, archaeologists, UNESCO: settlement from 10,000 BCE, walled by 8,000 BCE. Eleven thousand years old. Torah speaks of ancient cities, ancient knowledge.
Adam, The Most Intelligent Man Ever
And Adam? Jewish tradition says he was the most intelligent human ever. Created perfectly. Name every animal. Spoke languages. Had wisdom direct from God. Since the Fall? We’ve only lost ground. Technology? We rediscover what was forgotten. Not gain. Only Judaism says that. No other faith. Christians talk about Eden as paradise, but not as the peak of human intellect. We do. I follow a guy on YouTube—Matthew LaCroix.
Not an archaeologist, but he works with them. His videos on Egypt, the Sphinx—hidden doors, chambers, ancient messages encoded for us today. Ancients left clues. Symbols worldwide. Lost civilization knowledge. He says they hid it because humanity inverted it. Torah says the same: Adam knew everything. We lost it. Science finds the door; Torah explains why it’s locked. Abraham saw the signs. Looked at the stars. Recognized the One God in a world of idols. He left everything. No community.
The Third Temple
No temple yet. Just faith. I’m calling you—Christians, Messianics—who see the signs now. The world shakes. Prophecies unfold. Science aligns with Torah. But you’re still holding to a faith that started from the same place Abraham left. Your fathers were idolaters too. Come back. Like Abraham.
To the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. No intermediaries. No new covenants that replace the old. Just the original. The One who chose us from the Hittites, the Amorites, and nothing. I’m here alone, but connected. Kohen. Priest. Waiting for the Temple to rise again. You can come home too. The call is open. The signs are clear. Abraham listened. Will you?
