Literally what made me a believer in Christ was the gospel and combined with revelations. I was a Torah only guy. Yeshuah is our lord. Not just for the Jew but all gentiles also. Moses was given the law, and after we didn’t follow it, because of our self destructive nature, Christ became flesh and the last sacrifice for human redemption. Not many Jews convert to Christianity, but when it happens it’s something beautiful.
I have read the Talmud. I don’t agree with Talmudic teachings. This is the interpretation of man guided by deception and evil. Gods word is eternal and therefore needs no man to interpret and manipulate his guidelines. Do you know what Talmud means? Do you know there are two Talmud’s ? Do you know what Zohar means? Why would Abraham’s teachings be mixed with esoteric witchcraft ? Some sons of God who turned against him are responsible for revealing the secrets of heaven to humans, and not to be used for good but rather evil. Or perhaps some did reveal thinking it was for good, but human nature does not allow for ultimate good to prevail, as humans need a strong lash against them to force them to be of good behavior. Only God can set us free from ourselves. And he has done this by giving up his son, as the ultimate sacrifice. Jesus proved to us all that you can achieve a love for God that is unshaken. many of us are not capable of such obedience, Jesus took our place and died for us instead.
I'm interested in your background. I assume you are Jewish. How did you come to be a Torah only guy? Is that common for someone to reject the Talmud? Does it make other Jews look down on you? I do know what the Talmud is and agree with your sentiment about God's word being eternal and not needing man's manipulation. One more question. I have seen Jewish converts write God as G-d because they worry that spelling out His full name is saying it in vain, but I noticed you don't do that. Is there any reason for that?
God is Elohim. When a Jew says hashem to refer to God he is simply saying “the name” because it is a respected way of mentioning God without saying his name. How ever God Elohim is not Gods name. More like a title. Gods holly name shall not be taken in vain indeed. As far as my background I was born in a communist dictatorship. And as far as Torah only, is due to rabbinic interpretations also known as the oral tradition that I strongly don’t agree with. The Pharisees claimed that the oral tradition was given to them by the spirit of God because the gentiles had taken the Torah from them for themselves. This statement is idiotic to me because it assumes God wouldn’t want the gentiles to know and follow him. The oral tradition was also in my opinion to distant Jews from Yeshua Mesiach. It was done purposely to take Jewish people away from our king. The leadership felt deeply threatened by the new form of worship and teachings of Yeshua.
In Jewish tradition the Zohar is only for man who are married and has children. The aim is to have this knowledge given to someone who is responsible and won’t use it for evil. It’s very esoteric in nature. Lots of hidden meanings within in hidden meanings. Pray for guidance before you dive in
