Grafted-In Ministries Asks:

Will Their Blood Be Demanded At Our Hands?

Grafted-In Ministries, run by two Seventh-day Adventists, Bill and Jo Kuhlmeyer, have a multiply-pronged support ministry in place. It is designed to assist and empower the believer "to bloom wherever he/she is planted."

Bill and Jo have been believers in the Seventh-day Sabbath since 1978 -- which is when they discovered that, contrary to the teachings of men, the commandments of GOD never change. They have built an exhaustive research center on the internet at http://www.graftedin2Torah.org , where historical documents (particularizing the abrogation of GOD'S law by the Roman church/state) are available for downloading. Studies, detailing the subtle changes to the teachings of the Apostles and early followers of "The Way," show that what we are calling "the church" today bears no true resemblance to our Messiah's design.

In addition, following the Hebraic model (in which an intense study of the Scriptures is the highest form of worship), the Kuhlmeyers have opened their home in scenic Port Angeles, Washington, on the third weekend of every month for an intense weekend "retreat" known as a "Beit Midrash." "Sola Scriptura" is the rule, while food and sleeping accommodations are provided "potluck" family style. There is no charge at all for the weekend -- although, donations would be gratefully accepted.

After a full weekend retreat, feasting on the Word with other believers (from various Sabbatarian denominations), brethren return to their own churches invigorated, renewed and ready to serve the BODY: they then empower other believers (to be doers of the Word and not hearers only) by giving them a living example of the Messiah working in them. These active fellowships are a lot -- but they are not all. Besides this direct interaction, those who live in locations isolated from other believers are encouraged and uplifted by any one of 3 e-mail Berean study forums that Bill and Jo run on the internet.

You can access the first of these through your e-mail by typing, within the text area, the address to which you will be sending:

subscribe Feasts@onelist.com

This will subscribe you to a Berean study forum, where you can examine the validity of the Biblical Shabbats.

Typing the following address in your text area

subscribe Graftedin2Torah@onelist.com

subscribes you to another Berean study forum. This one is for all those other issues that denominationalism seems to have taken control over. Ongoing discussions range from "Methods of Worship" and "Is Davidic Dance Biblical?" to "What are our stewardship obligations regarding the Tithe?", etc.

To add to these, Ladies can access a special e-mail forum for them. They can do this in the same way -- by typing in the address

subscribe Messianicsisterhood@onelist.com

This forum is "only for women" who desire to discuss those issues distinguishing a "Biblical Woman."

Members of the forums live in areas such as rural North America, Japan, Tasmania, Korea and China. They are primarily Seventh-day Adventists, Church Of God, Worldwide Church Of God, Messianic Israelites and Messianic Jews. Truly all members of the BODY must come to SERVE and nourish the whole BODY if we are to become strong enough to ward off the attacks from without.

Bill and Jo Kuhlmeyer can be reached at Grafted-In Ministries, 1459 View Vista Park, Port Angeles, WA, 98362. < graftedin@saintmail.net > is the e-mail address.

We happily welcome Grafted-In Ministries to our fellowship and pray that the Eternal will bless Bill and Jo's efforts to educate His begotten Children -- as we all continue to learn, grow, and teach each other the Truth of His Way.
