Israel and the Body of Christ
A Tale of Two Brothers ...
Short background
Reviews and Testimonials
•“While there is a plethora of materials from Israeli Jewish followers of Jesus, this is a one-of-a-kind book that highlights the doctrinal, personal, and practical implications of such a unique trinity. Raviv is the ideal host to explore such a topic, and this book should be required reading for any believer who wants a better understanding of Israel, the Jewish people, and biblical faith in Christ.“ On “Three in One”
•“It is truly ingenious to build an apologetic work within the construct of a novel. Not only would this book be an excellent gift for the secular skeptic, but it is also a window into the lives of the modern Israeli Family and Society as a hole. Raviv's engaging style and passion for apologetics is a powerful combination.“ On “The Third Way”
Chris Morales, Pastor of the Afula Congregation, Israel.

My Testimony
I was born in Israel, on a kibbutz in the northeastern region of Israel near the Jordanian border. 30 minutes from Nazareth, Jericho, and the Sea of Galilee. (The photo above shows part of the landscape of my kibbutz-Beit Alfa located on the slope of Mt. Gilboa.)
I grew up on a kibbutz under the Marxist-Socialist ideology that lasted until the late 1980s. Memories like parades on Labor Day every May 1st, equipped with red flags of the Soviet Union, with images of Lenin and Stalin hanging in the dining hall are still fresh on my mind.
It goes without saying that God was not present in my life as a child, as a teenager, or even as an adult. In Israeli kibbutzim culture, there was no mention of God, let alone Jesus. There was a Zionist vision, there was ideology, there was pioneering, there was brotherhood, there was unity of purpose, but there was a total absence of the Godhead.
Thus, I grew up, and after years of studying and working in the agricultural fields of the kibbutz, I enlisted in the IDF and served for 4.5 years in the Armored Corps, and was discharged with the rank of Major.
From there, I continued to study water engineering, start a family, and began a career in various water technologies.
Since my childhood, I have loved to write and soon discovered a talent for it, probably inherited from my late mother. However, until a later age, I did not translate this talent into actual writing—until I found God. Not only God the Father, but also His Son Jesus, and the Holy Spirit.
After the event of God's revelation to me and accepting Jesus into my life, an event described in the book, Three in One, I began self-studying apologetics to strengthen my faith and provide me with tools to face my family and friends, confronting their attacks and mockery.
During this period, I wrote three family books, and later decided to write my first novel, "The Third Way", that deals with apologetics and faith. This book received excellent reviews and was recently released in its second edition in both Hebrew and English.
After the 7th OF October 23, I decided to write my second book "Three in One" as a letter to the Church. That book deals mostly with the relations between the Jewish people as people, Israel as Nation and the Body of Christ.
I am fluent in Hebrew, English, and Spanish. Please feel free to reach out to me with any questions.

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem.
Psalm 122:6
Jerusalem is the apple of God's eye, as it is written in Zechariah 2:8. In the same book, in chapter 1:14, the prophet speaks of God's zeal for Jerusalem. And if that’s not enough, in Genesis 12:3, God promises to bless those who bless Israel and curse those who curse it. All of this is enough for us, the children of God and brothers in Christ, to pray for the peace of Jerusalem and for the Jewish people in the Land of Israel at all times, until the coming of the Messiah, Yeshua. Amen.
