I like on TOI and on jns. The left hates Netanyahu including Obama and Biden. They are welcoming towards Epstein leftist pedos which, to my knowledge, Bibi had not this far been associated with. They all obviously have dirt on each other, but this is an observation that I have made. Not sure what to think.
Messiah was promised to the Jewish people by God in the scriptures. He was to be born of a virgin, the seed of the woman, of the tribe of Judah, born in Bethlehem, called out of Egypt,a Nazarene, and more. Jesus fulfilled something like 400 Jewish prophecies so far if memory serves me correctly. Without the Jews, there is no Messiah. Choices make you evil, not your ethnicity.
Apparently, he was astroprojecting like he had so many times before but a team of prayer warriors who had been contending with him for some time "cut his silver cord," thus preventing his soul from reconnecting with his body and he died. He made that statement right before he died. That's the shortened condensed version of what happened. I've listened to the story posted online by those who were a part of that and it seems credible to me. For reference, the silver cord reference is based on a verse in Ecclesiastes. For some that may seem far fetched.
You are most welcome.
Many Jews aren't aware of the"Jewish" connection to the DS and, as a result, they tend to view a lot of the hate that they get as antis anti Semitic and, to be fair, some of the hate is just that- not all but some As for Muslims, the only true Muslim is one who follows the full counsel of the Quran. Earlier writings which are, in fact, peaceful are abrogated(superceded) by later writings which are violent and evil. Mohammed was an incredibly evil man to include murder, rape, and pedophilia. This is why you have bachi bazi in Afghanistan (look up Sgt Martland's story for reference) and child brides, some as young as four yrs old in some countries. They also have a practice, when men are traveling, of marrying women so that they can legally able engage in relations and then they abandon these women who are no longer virgins, may be pregnant, when they leave and then they are no longer able to marry and have families. You can't call out bad Muslims. This is their religion and their example is Mohammed. Only a changed heart can fix this problem.
Circumcision was instituted by God in the Torah. Many Jews don't practice mtsitsa b'peh. Exactly when that was started or by whom, I do not know. Some see it as tradition without really thinking about the implications. In the most conservative sects who might be the ones to practice it, they are very insulated from sex and sexuality. Boys and girls don't play together. Arranged marriages where they might have a few meetings at Mom and Dad's home with the right of refusal. They may or of high school and families support the young couple to help them get launched in life with hiding, business set up, job, etc. They get the sex talk right before the wedding. One woman I listened to was like, I knew him growing up, he was a nice guy, I thought all I had to do was live with him. She had no idea that there was anymore to it than that. There is a kind of enforced ignorance/innocence on the topic. They don't talk about related issues like abuse so it may not enter their minds to view it through a lens other than that of a handed down tradition and tradition is a very important part of culture for them which is why you see some of them sporting styles from hundred of years ago. For those outside of that, it appears completely differently. I am IN NO WAY defending the practice. I'm just offering another perspective.
Karaite Jews are Orthodox and Torah only.
No, there is a sect of Orthodox Judaism that is Torah only, no talmud. Conservative sects of Judaism may also be the same. I'm not sure about the latter.
That there are Jews that have mistreated Christians may be true. I haven't researched that. That said, I would like to say a few things. Bear in mind that Jews have been accused of murdering Jesus and persecuted for it. This is a huge barrier for a lot of Jews. One for Israel shares the testimonies of many Messianic Jews who have had to debunk that belief in order to believe in Him. The talmud, as I explained in another post on this thread is actually two compilations of a wide genre of writings written over, I believe, about 900 years. It's content is contradictory and some of it was written during times of great corners of soul at times of literal oppression and prescription. Also, there are many Jews who have very positive relationships with non Jews including Christians. Many of the "Righteous Among the Nations," were Christians and many Jews are very much aware of this. CBN has some documentaries detailing the generosity and kindness of Jews to even their enemies. Be careful about lumping people together on the basis of what a few do it on the basis of a select portion of the talmuds.i have heard of some Orthodox Jews spritting on and saying terrible things to Christians. Not all Jews are that way. Someone close to me told me he owes his life to an Orthodox Jew. Think about it...
Revelations is a prophetic book. I have often thought that the Khazerians were a part of those that John was speaking about
Thank you for saying what needed to be said.
There are two talmuds, Babylonian and pre Babylonian. Together, they span something like 900 years. The talmuds are a collection of old wives tales, recipes, stories, scientific commentary that has, in at least some cases, been debunked, AND theological writings that are contradictory. Talmudic Jews do not follow the whole talmud but instead tend to focus on and study selected portions. Those portions,I believe, vary to some degree from sect to sect. The tendency of some to single certain verses out and apply them to an entire group of religiously observant people seems to me to be beneath the dignity of the GAW crowd who sometimes go so far as to snear at those who don't think critically for themselves. It is helpful to note that Jews can be a very intellectual bunch, analyzing issues down to the very smallest of details and unnecessarily so at times in my opinion. One passage I came across actually says that although"thus and such" is permissible, anyone who does it is wrong and should be beaten. Why bother?... But some do. I am of the mindset that Orthodox Judaism is plagued by the same phenomenon of sin that Christian denominations are plagued by whereby some evil individuals seek positions of power within a religious structure in order to take advantage of the vulnerable. This does not make all Orthodox Jews evil. I was once Catholic. That didn't make me what many in the priestly echelon were nor does it make all priests evil. The evangelical church has had similar issues.
I have had the exact same thought about the khazerians.
The whole truth will eventually come out. What remains is this: People died horrific deaths that day including Americans. They took hostages who they tortured and some who they killed. they committed atrocious acts that they gleefully celebrated with uploaded videos and they would live to do it to us. We must not lose sight of that fact and of their desire to do similar things here. The existence of the DS does not change that and we must be vigilant.
I grew up with exposure to the Muslim world and I really don't think that westerners and especially Americans really understand the Middle Eastern Muslim mindset. They think very differently than we do. I'm not automatically against someone b/c they are Muslim, but I definitely want anyone who voices support for terrorism gone from my country.
These terror minded individuals hate us as much as they hate Jews. They view us as a Christian nation and our national morality is abhorrent to them. They also hate us because we are infidels. Also bear in mind that Trump recently watched the compilation of live footage uploaded to the Internet by Hamas on Oct 7th as they gleefully slaughtered people. This, by the way, had been made available to journalists and foreign dignitaires and their representative. They celebrated in the streets of Gaza with public viewings of these things. I've heard Mike Huckabee, Dave Rubin, and countless others talk about it. The atrocities are so bad unimaginable to the western mind. Huckabee, like many, went to Israel and toured first hand. He said that you could smell the death in the air. If you saw what he saw in addition to also talking with hostages who are fresh out of Gaza, you might feel the same way. What they did has played out all over Africa and the Middle East against Christians for a long time. They may cooperate with the DS, but it's because it also advances their own cause. The US is filled with terrorists and their supporters. Getting rid of them is a good thing.
We will most definitely look into that. Thank you for taking the time and amen in Jesus name! 😀
I am on the same page with you. We need to be watchful and prayerful. As I look at what's going on, I am coming to the conclusion that this will result in a response from God of biblical proportions. Although everything that we were seeing prior to Oct 7 was certainly about a defiance against God, Hamas has made it wholeheartedly about who God is and attacked Israel in the process. How could this not draw a response from God? Time will tell.
Agreed. I am left with feeling that Americans underestimate the dark side of Islam and it is deeply concerning. These folks are here on our own soil. Mohammed was neither good nor peaceful.
The Muslim birth rate in Europe is alive and well. In some cases, it exceeds that of the native population. That's a bigger problem. That is one of the ways that they seek to advance their caliphate agenda.
It's hard to say. BO was an ally in my mind of Iran and the Muslim Brotherhood among others. These are no friend of ours. They hate not only Jews but also Christians whom they severely persecute. They perceive us as a Christian nation and they are here. What you're saying could have merit but I'm still left with questions. Time will tell, I think, now that Trump is in office. Keeping the faith...🙏
I've often wondered why the Obama admin was so opposed to Netanyahu. If he's as deep state as the Obamas, why would they have worked to undermine him in the way that they did including dispatching people to advise those campaigning against him? There are many powerful Jewish elites and yet Israel takes a lot of heat on the world stage that seems to support their enemies. I get that Mosad is a dark organization, but it seems to me that it would be self defeating to the Jewish elites to set Israel up for destruction. Hamas' treatment of the Jews is backed by the Palestinians and is similar to how Muslims treat Christians all over the ME. Hatred of the infidel and especially Christians and Jews is part of the Muslim ideology and that applies to any of their own that convert. I feel as if I'm missing some pieces of a puzzle when I look at this. Is it possible that in order to try to do good for one's nation, a week intentioned citizen getting involved in the political structure would be forced to accept a certain amount of bad in order to do some good? Does this make sense or am I lacking context?
Thank you
