Pastor Jory Brooks is an American and pastor of the oldest Anglo-Israel church in North America, located in Detroit, Michigan. He is also Vice-President of the “The Servant People, Canadian British Israel Association” and together with President Mary Bennett, has been a driving force in that organization. With his keen interest in history and research, he has updated and written many fine publications for CBIA. When you read a Jory Brooks article, you know you are in touch with one of the foremost scholars of the Israel Truth. He is a speed reader so gets the most out of the hours per day he spends in research. His articles in our magazine are invariably fresh and informative and he also writes a quarterly article for a British publication. It is a tribute to his wisdom that his articles are very often picked up and reprinted in other Israel Truth magazines. Jory is also a sought after speaker and has delivered messages throughout the United States, Canada and the British Isles.
Among the memorable experiences of this autumn’s mission to England was a visit to the historic city of Oxford.

In popular modern Christian teaching, the ancient citizens of Israel were an indivisible body, an undivided unit, a single entity also known as the Jewish nation.

Where did mankind originate? The Bible tells us of the creation of Adam and Eve and their primeval home in the Garden of Eden, but where was it?

Where do we find Edom, the biblical Israelites’ troublesome one-time enemy and recipient of prophetic curses (e.g. the Book of Obadiah), in the world today? A wide variety of answers is given by modern evangelical pastors and writers. Let us set aside our own opinions and give the answer from reputable scholars of the past…
It is sometimes helpful to take a look back in time and see how we can learn from the past. Reading through British-Israel journals of a hundred years ago provides some interesting insights as to how our teaching today compares with earlier exponents. A century ago the world was embroiled in World War I, and…
Question: 1 Corinthian 15: 40-41 states there are different levels of heaven (Telestrial, Terrestrial and Celestial (being the highest level). Do you think there are “levels” or just Heaven and Hell? Reply: 1 Cor. 15:40-41 says, “There are also celestial bodies, and bodies terrestrial: but the glory of the celestial is one, and the glory…
Question: The scriptures clearly state that baptism by immersion is the only way. So if good people, that live a repentant life and live by the word of god are not accepted in the kingdom of heaven if they were not baptized in the proper way? Example: Catholics baptize the young baby by sprinkling, that…
As I write, my wife and daughter are in their usual Sunday evening places on the family room couch working together on crosswords. On other occasions these two have toiled together on difficult 1,000 piece jigsaw puzzles; it is usually easy to place and understand how the edge pieces fit together, but the deeper parts…
Question: I have begun my studies into Daniel and have been using Howard Rand’s book: A study in Daniel as a reference point. When you can, please turn to chapter 9:4-19. Daniel’s prayer fits like a glove to today’s time, but I ask “where is the Daniel for our countries?” Reply: Beginning with Daniel 9:4,…
During the month of July I was privileged to be invited to attend and deliver two addresses at the seventieth anniversary of the Covenant People’s Fellowship in Great Britain, as well as guest pastoring at historic Orange Street Congregational Church in London and doing research in the justly famous British Library.
