Tamir Kugman: Why Faith in Jesus Is NOT Idol Worship

We invite you to join us for Conversations with Jewish Believers In Jesus hosted by Jeff Morgan. In this episode, Jeff talks with Tamir Kugman, an Israeli believer in Jesus, about why—despite what many may assume—faith in Jesus isn’t idol worship.

Tamir Kugman was born in Israel and grew up in a secular Jewish family. At the age of 21, while working as an animator for the Israeli Defense Forces, Kugman realized that Jesus was the Jewish Messiah. After receiving a BA in special education and an MA in learning disabilities, he worked as a special education teacher and administrator. In 2019, Kugman felt a new professional calling. He began working with Jews for Jesus, using his passion for art and education to tell others about Yeshua. Today, he, his wife, and their five children live in Tel Aviv.

Nothing is more genuinely Jewish than believing in the Jewish Messiah. Jesus is both man an God! Jeremiah prophesied a new covenant (which Talmud isn't). The new testament fits hand in glove with Tanakh. It's a natural continuation. God bless your channel ❤❤❤

This was pure gold. So many people reject God because they don't understand him, Tamir's explanation is so simple and profound.
God bless you both and the people of Israel during these terrible times. ❤

How wonderful to hear the prophecy of the Messiah explained from a Jewish follower of Jesus The Messiah! To see how the Holy Spirit opens a person’s eyes to see what he could not see is just plain marvelous.

Wars in Israel make us think of the end times. After a sermon on Daniel 9 yesterday I was thinking of how this national prayer of repentance fits with Romans 11 and 12. The Jews, in a national way, will repent of their sins before Jesus' return. In Romans 12 it quotes Isaiah 59. In Isaiah 59 it is so clear that the LORD is the Messiah, then Isaiah speaks of the Gentiles and more of the Messiah and his reign. Just so beautiful. I know Jewish people and Israel feel very alone right now; I wish their eyes could be opened how over the whole earth, Gentiles are worshiping the God of the Jews (Isaiah 60) and praying for them. God is at work, even in suffering. I love learning about the threeness of God. I recently listened to a seminary atudent describe how God is love because each person loves the other and the third witnesses to the veracity. Our everyday experience tells is threeness is required for true love. So i inferred when God made Adam, Adam had twoness because God was a witness to the love between a man and woman. We image him but he is part of our three-corded strand. Thank you for sharing.

Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you, that there are Jews believing in Jesus. I love you Jews so much. But I am crying like Jesus about Lazarus about the Jews that still wander astray like sheep.

I just wanted to say that I really like the way Tamir explained what I call the God-Head or what most call the Trinity. I am Seventh Day Adventist & there’s been a lot of controversy in our church on this subject. Tamir explains it better than anyone that I have heard speak on the subject. Thank you so much for making the meaning of the God-Head /Trinity clear in my mind🙏🏼❤️🙏🏼

With the exchange of Israeli hostages with prisoners is a shame.IDF soldier's have died in this war, only hope and pray that the nation of Israel calls on the name of Yeshua for redemption.
Thank you Jews for Jesus for the focused work all of you have been doing for years .

Blessed by your teaching. Jesus Emmanuel God with us who took away our sin. He was himself without sin; that is, with no spot or defects

[steveegbert]

All well said Jeff and Tamir. We as finite beings struggle with the idea of an eternal God, without beginning or end, let alone a Godhead of three in one. There comes a point that you just have to believe and take it by faith that what He says is real! I finally did and He transformed me overnight!

[spaseristov]

Also the Messiah was called Immanuel (God is with us) Keep up the great work guys God bless you!

John Wesley is alleged to have said, “Bring me a worm that can comprehend a man, and then I will show you a man that can comprehend the triune God.”

Nonetheless, you both brought up great examples, Tamir and Jeff!
