“Behold, I lay in Zion a stone for a foundation” Isaiah 28:6

The Touchstone of our Faith

Beneath the sands of an archaeological mound lay the foundation stone upon which millennia of families built their lives.   Yeshua admonishes us to build on the rock.  Yeshua is that rock of revelation.

What’s In A Name?

even / אֶבֶן / Stone, Rock

gilion / גִּלָּיוֹן / Scroll, Tablet, Sheet, Revealed

About Us: Yeshua said, “upon this rock I will build My community; and the gates of Sheol will not overpower it.” At the Center of Messianic Studies, we proclaim the “Revealed Stone” of Messiah. He is the tried and rejected stone, revealed to be the precious corner stone of our lives. Also Yeshua is the “Revealed Stone” of the Gospel. The Hebrew name, Even Gilion in Hebrew, was used by early Jewish believers as a word play for the Greek evangelion, the Good News or Gospel. Our name also signifies the written truth of God’s word engraved on stone (EVEN) tablet (GILION) at Mt. Sinai.

Moreover we invite you to discover the revelation of Yeshua, Messiah of Israel, and God’s plan for your life. Therefore this is the Good News that you have been waiting for.

WHO WE ARE?
