Graeme Purdie​
Talmidei Yeshua Messianic Ministry Of New Zealand


As the author of the following series of expository essays written on behalf of Talmidei Yeshua Messianic Ministry of New Zealand, I have endeavoured to bring forth the Sovereign Plan of God as accurately as possible, by using the scriptural narrative as my main point of reference rather than use the teachings of any religious groups. That is not to say that I do not value the insights of others and the work that has been done by others. But in this website I have remained true to what I believe I have been called to do. As Talmidim each of us is given a specific gifting from Yeshua which is our task to fulfil if we are truly his Talmidim (disciples).

I hope that my contributions toward the collective knowledge of Scripture will provide many with a deeper appreciation of the Sovereign Plan of God and help many appreciate more fully the place that YHVH has for Isra’el in this world, so that together we may bring glorify our heavenly Father in the way he intended.

As the founder of Talmidei Yeshua Messianic Ministry of New Zealand I also hold the roles as Nasi (President) and Moreh (Teacher) for two Kehilot (Congregations) and was earlier co-leader of Kehilah Beth Yeshua. Those roles have to date spanned over 23 years. 

My study and research of Scriptures began in my mid-20's at which stage I recognised my ancestral connection to Avraham (Abraham). My journey with YHVH as a Talmid of Yeshua has now spanned 50 years.

Through my years of study I have always been drawn to search the depths of all that YHVH has revealed from his scriptural narrative. At the heart of that narrative I have found God's Sovereign and Redemptive Plan. A plan which he progressively reveals to all who are willing to listen, firstly to the people of Isra'el and latterly to those whom he has called from among the nations to be Talmidim of Yeshua.  

To those who have been called to join with the Talmidei Yeshua Messianic Kehilot here in New Zealand, my wife Caroline and I express our thanks to you all for the love, support and fellowship you have shown us both, here at the ‘ends of the earth’ as part of the worldwide body of Yeshua. We are also indebted to Ashok and Api Kumar, who stepped up as Nasi and Administrator in our Auckland Kehilah, when we moved on to develop our Hawkes Bay Kehilah. We also extend our thanks to others who have been strong background supporters for the Ministry throughout the development years, always acting in through their love for Yeshua. 

No vision has any worth without becoming a practical reality, that is why we say, “vision is seeing but identity is being!” While the words in these essays may contain our vision as Talmidim of Yeshua, they have had to be matched by the support through other fellow Talmidim who are living out the identity in their being. As Talmidim of Yeshua we are all constantly walking the ancient scriptural paths in the presence of Yeshua as he works through the power of the Ruach HaKodesh (Holy Spirit).

I sincerely hope that those who read these essays will gain as much blessing from them, as I have had in researching and writing them. May YHVH richly bless all who are called to obey his commandments and bear witness to Yeshua in this 21st century.

Shalom b’Shem Yeshua Ha Mashiach (Peace in the Name of Yeshua the Messiah).
