Smith Creek Bible Study Hall Open House

Have you ever wanted to stop a religious show on TV and ask a question? Would you like to study the Bible - all of it, in an interactive way?

Have you ever had issues with how your church functions? Even if you haven't, have you ever wanted a resource outside of your church as a second opinion?

Christian Rabbi Mark Moos was born in Pittsburgh up the hill from the stadium as a late baby boomer. While in Catholic catechism preparing for the sacrament of First Communion in second grade, a supernatural event launched him on a lifelong study searching for the truth.

After wading through almost two decades of comprehensive study of the supernatural, paranormal and science, all things pointed to the study of theology. Born again in a Pentecostal church in Ohio the day before his father's birthday turned out to be a huge disappointment to the former altar boy's family and former school teachers. However, it was the start of serious Bible study after going to Catholic schools for a dozen years. The bookworm's library grew.

Ordained in 2010 in New Mexico into helping a small first-century style home church, his third sermon was his Rabbi's funeral. After sharing duties with another pastor for a year, he too resigned. Thus the Christian-Hebrew Assemblies of Yahweh suddenly and utterly unpredictably had a new shepherd!

Focusing on theology with an understanding of all that is odd with the world in the context of understanding the physics and chemistry of what makes it tick led to a comprehensive comparative study of world religions and philosophies. Unfortunately for the lot of them, theology can truly only have one right answer.

It's been pointed out that Christianity is the opposite of religion – God came to us, because we can never get to Him through our own efforts. This history (always accurate) and His Story is all contained in the books of the Bible, which can be relied on with very few caveats. Those can be learned, so that it can be trusted implicitly.

Why Anti-Denominational? A good general divides and conquers. Look at the etymology of the word "denomination" – nom = name, to nominate is to raise up a name, usually to a position of importance. Nomination is the process of elevating the Name. Denomination, therefore, is the Adversary's plan to TEAR DOWN the importance of the Name!

It's not what your church has right that will save you - Jesus, Yeshua does that. It's what they get wrong that can hurt you. Rabbi Mark tries to stick to Scripture instead of commentary, and a lot of accepted, even required, practices approach abomination. Learn more!

Because of the times we are in, Rabbi Mark has become fluent in both Eschatology, the study of end times prophecy and popular misconceptions surrounding it, and Creation Science, the study of how God spoke everything into existence and how the Flood is the best way to understand history, archaeology and geology in a way perfectly harmonious with Scripture AND science.

Preaching on social media is hazardous at best, and conservative politics almost ensures that no one will see the posts. Algorithms and the prejudices of those in the industry are almost too much to overcome. Nonetheless, memes like those here are within Rabbi Mark's skill set as a former professional photographer, computer geek and graphics professional.

Rabbi Mark is also an editor, author and publisher. He is ministering now full-time after returning to the Southwestern PA area after 60 years away living in Ohio, Georgia, and New Mexico.

If the community can use it, Rabbi Mark wishes to have a Judeo-Christian Bible Study church here that celebrates the Sabbaths and observes God's feasts, not man's traditions.

The teaching will be done with movie and audio presentations on Friday evenings after sunset followed by discussion, and Sabbath (Saturday) service with Torah portions (Parashat) linking them to the life of Yeshua in the New Testament. Our Jewish members believe that Yeshua is the Messiah, and our Christian members (still in New Mexico) understand that we are grafted into Hebrew roots. We do not have a 501c3, we are not a non-profit organization. We are a true Church doing what we were told - spreading the Word and His salvation as far as we can.

A library with several sets of encyclopedias, a fast internet connection, and a large theological library will facilitate its use during the week as a resource center, especially for home-school parents and students.
Rabbi Mark learned research at the Battelle.org think tank.

There will be an open house of what's to be called the Smith Creek Bible Study Hall

at 2600 Smith Creek Rd, locally known as the former
Disabled American Veterans' hall.

The rehab is still going on. Learn how you can be a part of the church, and how
Rabbi Mark and the church can be a resource for the community!
