It warms my heart that most on this board don't buy into the evangelical BS of believing that the modern State of Israel isn't the 'chosen ones'.
I guess many have read their Bibles. In the Bible Jesus ended the sacrificial system, and opened up salvation to everyone meaning us gentiles out here whether white, black, oriental, Indian, or what ever.
Good to see people are actually awake to what Jesus' mission was and what he stood for and taught.
Amen.
Yes you absolutely can convert to Judaism. You could in Jesus' day as well as today. In Jesus' day they were called "Jewish proselytes". Today, in most synagogues, there is a conversion process that anyone can go thru to become a "Jew". In Jesus' day the scribes and Pharisees boasted that "we have Abraham for our father". Ishmael was also a son of Abraham. So his descendants (Arabs/Palestinians?) can make the same claim. I love what Paul the Apostle wrote in Romans: "But he is a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, and not in the letter; whose praise is not of men, but of God." (Romans 2:29 KJV). Today there's only one kind of "Jew" - all those who have accepted Jesus of Nazareth as their Messiah.
