    Some thought about "Jews"

    I posted just before reading this post. You covered the issue much better than I ever could.

    Some thought about "Jews"

    I did indeed read your post. You have, as have I, obviously spent much time reading all God's word. The information in your post is why I have always put the term "Jew" in quotations. There are so many definitions and refinements of God's chosen people that any one single term does not work...

    Some thought about "Jews"

    Thank you all for the time and effort you took to respond; you have given me much to consider and a great deal of work to do. I have read and studied all the responses and would just like to make a couple of points. I mentioned the issue of Messianic Judaism. There was no argument that even...

    Some thought about "Jews"

    Thank you, your response is thoughtful and thorough. That said there are several points at which we disagree. I am studying as many responses as possible and will try to address those issues as best I can. Please note, I never said all "Jews" are saved; I did say I do not believe all "Jews"...

    Some thought about "Jews"

    This is my source: Jeremiah 31:33 For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, declares the Lord: I will put my law within them, and I will write it on their hearts. And I will be their God, and they shall be my people. Romans 2:14-15 For when...

    Some thought about "Jews"

    I am not going to point anyone out. I have made other posts supporting those who practice some form of Judaism and got that exact response once and a similar post on another occasion. I have also heard this outside of CC. My concern is that there was no significant challenge to this idea.

    Yes, just as only a remnant of "Christians" will be saved.

    Some thought about "Jews"

    I think that is true but impossible. If you have the Torah in your heart and pursue God, you are saved by the grace of His Son. This grace is extended to those who believe he is yet to come as well as those who believe he has already done so. All the truth spoken by Jesus was already spoken...

    Some thought about "Jews"

    Oh, I absolutely agree. My point is the "Jews" (for lack of a better term) have not been condemned to eternal damnation as many Christians believe. They have not been rejected; nor have they in any way rejected God. Again, their salvation cannot come in a future time if they had already done...

    My entire post states the opposite position. That's why I wrote it.

    Some thought about "Jews"

    Lots of things exist only in my mind; point taken! However, my viewpoint is based on personal experience (I have scars for proof) and years of reading and study. I will agree some churches still pay lip-service to the First Testament but the God of Judgement and Wrath has been rejected and...

    Some thought about "Jews"

    So you believe God's chosen stopped pursuing YHWH at the destruction of the Temple? That position is denied by millions of people practicing some form of Judaism throughout history.

    Some thought about "Jews"

    I hope to address a difficult topic, one that has been mentioned several times on CC. The statement has been made that all Jews are going to burn in hell because they reject Jesus Christ. I have a few thoughts on that topic. First, being a “Jew” is not monolithic. Just like Christianity...

    Oh praise God, the Holy Spirit does indeed give us negative feelings....I'll be damned if he doesn't.

    Justice?

    I live near Delphi, Indiana where two young girls were brutally murdered by a human animal. The jury just convicted the accused on all counts for committing these murders. They are now arguing over appeals and how many years this human garbage should serve in Prison. This is NOT justice. And...

    Isaiah 54:1-55:5 and 1 Peter 3:18-22

    I recently read this quote by Mark Twain: "If the statistics are right, the Jews constitute but one quarter of one percent of the human race. It suggests a nebulous puff of star dust lost in the blaze of the Milky Way. Properly, the Jew ought hardly to be heard of, but he is heard of, has...

    I am deeply disappointed and saddened by this thread.
