These are false teachers that need to be avoided at all costs. However some pastors and Christian organisations still work with them not realising their background.
Jono Vandor – “Truth2U”
It may seem obvious this guy should be avoided, but he pops up in some of my friend’s Facebook likes which concerns me.
Jono is an Australian blogger and radio host for the last 5 years initially as a bible study for Christians to learn about Jewish roots, in 2010, this was quoted on a forum:-
“TRUTH2U is a new radio program gaining listenership around the globe.
It broadcasts out of a little country town, the cherry capital of Australia, Young NSW. (GMT+11, Sunday mornings 11-12)
It runs for one hour and is hosted by me, jono vandor.
The aim of TRUTH2U is to expose the pagan (!) and elevated traditions of man in professing Christianity while upholding Torah and the reality of Scripture. Primarily, TRUTH2U seeks to serve YHWH and those set-apart to Him by broadcasting the truth of His Son, Yahshua Messiah.”
Since then the direction has changed completely to being against Yeshua and against the gospel and teach Christians about Judaism. This guy uses lots of material from people like Michael Skobac, Tovia Singer and Ira Michaelson from Jews for Judaism. This is a group specifically to stop Jewish people knowing about Jesus, 
but a bunch of 50 something Rabbis aren’t going to appeal to today’s youth, that why they need a middle man like Jono who can make it sound appealing to Christians look from today’s blogging/podcast generation. Actually Jews for Judaism aka Outreach Judaism also want to target ordinary Christians who are attracted to Orthodox Judaism.
These online presentations and Israel tour visits are slickly presented as a Jewish/Christian social thing, but its clear they want to present you with an exit from the gospel with some false teaching.
Nehemiah Gordon
Nehemiah is not a believer but a Karaite Jew. Hes been interviewed in a few Christian TV channels. As he writes about Yeshua he must be a good guy? Or almost getting there??
This book is effectively telling Christians about the sacred name idea I wrote earlier, its a way to get Christians out of their normal church and regular thinking into odd sound teaching which leads them to dropping Yeshua.
Disturbingly pick at random any of the people who are a member of this group, there is a disturbing trend of these people tend to be ex-Christians wanting to be Jewish and seeking strict religious structure. Gordon is often a guest on the 
Truth2U and Spiritualbabies blogs.
He works with an American pastor a lot, this is mainly because the two charge $7.99 a month biblical history subscription to a Christian audience so not surprisingly my warnings to this pastor I emailed fell on deaf ears.
Jason “SpiritualBabies”
Sounds like a cult? You are correct. Jason and Lyn are an Irish couple who run a business doing graphics and illustration work. This was initially used for the message of the gospel, then for a more Hebraic slant as it got Christians to take Jewish practices. Now its specifically against the gospel.
Like Jono, these people are huge fans of Tovia Singer, and they work together with Jono and some other people to point people towards Tovia’s theology.
Pathways Radio
This is a channel run by ex-believers which yet again promote anti-Yeshua teacher Rabbi Tovia Singer. It proclaims itself as ‘idolfree’ but actually it has some talks on witchcraft!!!
From this appalling site:- “There is nothing more offensive to the Jewish people, and the Jewish faith, than organizations that target Jews with vile, disgusting perversions of scripture in order to trick, manipulate, and convert a holy people into pagan religion.
The Christian church considers the Jews as prime targets for this onslaught of lies. The church has incorporated assimilation tactics into its repitiore. These tactics include additional Christian denominations called: Messianic Judaism, Nazarene (Netzari) Judaism, Hebrew Roots, and other alternative names. Their principle objective is to trick the Jewish person into seeing Jesus….”
From a book from a member of the ‘Pathways radio’ cult;
“….In this book, the reader will witness how AJ and his family journeyed through the following: Christianity Atheism Born-again Christianity Messianic Judaism Hebrew roots Nazarene Judaism Finally, reality (!!!!) Each dramatic step, each oddity, and even the colorful characters met along the way are described in every way! AJ Ostrander was an energetic and passionate evangelical preacher in the church for ten years….”
Bottom line; the Hyper Hebrew Roots movement pulls people away from the church and Christian friends and family and gradually into progressively more weird teaching, excluding the love and salvation of Christ, into apostasy.
2 Peter 2 : 1 But there were also false prophets among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you. They will secretly introduce destructive heresies, even denying the sovereign Lord who bought them—bringing swift destruction on themselves. 2Many will follow their depraved conduct and will bring the way of truth into disrepute. 3In their greed these teachers will exploit you with fabricated stories. Their condemnation has long been hanging over them, and their destruction has not been sleeping.
There is a consistent pattern that many of the believers were following Yeshua up until a few years ago, but were telling ordinary Christians to keep Torah and keep kosher and urged them that Jewish practices were mandatory for everyone. Then these people denied Jesus altogether.
Ephesians 5 : 11 Have nothing to do with the fruitless deeds of darkness, but rather expose them. 12It is shameful even to mention what the disobedient do in secret. 13 But everything exposed by the light becomes visible—and everything that is illuminated becomes a light.
Am I indulging in slander, Lashon Hara (or Lashing Horror) towards these people? I have chatted to some people who are believers who got into this stuff. Some to the bad stuff (Staley/Rood Crowd in part 2 below) and some truly appalling stuff like these men.
Please, please, this is not about encouraging antisemitism or bashing Judaism in any way, this is exposing half a dozen oddball religious groups pretending to be education for Christians pointing them towards denying Yeshua using the same old teaching from Singer/Skobac. I have a huge respect for Judaism, but not when its twisting Christian and Jewish scriptures as used by these phonies.
If I can save one person from this total garbage then these blog posts will be worth it.
