In this thread I thought I'd throw a couple of issues I've pondered for sometime.
Please don't bring your swords to this thread only your convictions and what the Lord has shown you.
Now we know that christian roots are found in Judaism, our God is the Hebrew God.
Jesus is the son of David, born a Jew...etc and Jesus was the final sacrifice.
We can't escape the fact that most of what is associated with jesus is found in Judaism, baptism, last supper, etc. So how Jewish should a Christian be?
2nd Where do you think the old testament ended or should of ended.
Do you think that the book of Malachi is proper or did it end with the beheading of John the baptist? Or did it end at the book of acts?
Since the promise of the messiah is in the old some say the birth of Jesus is proper but it wasn't untill his death and resurrection that the new covenant was established.
I hope you understand what this post is asking as I have a hard time expressing my thoughts in type so don't beat me up to bad and be kind to others.
