claimed the lives of some of his friends and nearly his own, he put his faith in Jesus. Jacob’s family is a combination of Roman Catholic and Jewish (in his youth he was forced to attend a Catholic school, but also attended the Jewish Community Centre). Jacob’s wife Pavia, also from a science background, is a Romanian born Israeli Jewish believer who is the daughter of holocaust survivors. Pavia was an atheist, and Jacob was an agnostic. After coming to faith both switched from study in scientific fields to theological fields in Israel and in Britain. They have two children both born in Galilee.
Jacob is a Hebrew speaking evangelist to The Jews and a bible teacher elaborating on the original Judeo-Christian background and hermeneutics of The New Testament, and his emphasis is on church planting and missions. He and Moriel have also been a conservative voice for biblically based discernment among moderate Pentecostals and Charismatics opposed to the seductions of the ecumenism, money oriented preaching and hype artistry, ‘charismania’ and psycho-babble prevalent in today’s church.
Jacob & Moriel are committed to the conviction that we are in The Last Days approaching the return of Christ and that contemporary events in The Middle East, the moral deterioration of society, the destruction of the environment, the globalization of the world economy, the rise of a pseudo democratic federal Europe and above all the apostasy in the contemporary church, are all events of prophetic significance eschatologically.
Jacob’s tapes, CDs, books, and videos are available through the Moriel branches in various countries. |
