I'm considering #4.
Is keeping the 7th day Sabbath and the annual feast days plus agreeing to the dietary restrictions qualify enough to equate to "practice MJ"?
Great question Norbert L! I term myself Messianic Gentile..... I began observing the Sabbaths and Holy Days and attempting to avoid pork and shellfish back in the '70's..... I have never given up on these... but I am 150 miles away from the Messianic Synagogue in Halifax and so just simply attend a Pentecostal Church with my wife.
I have some rather interesting contacts in the Orthodox Jewish community because I am trying my best to figure out a way to finance the rebuilding of the Jerusalem Third Temple complex perhaps before the year 2033! 2030 is the 2000 year/ 2 metaphorical day anniversary of the death, burial and resurrection of Rabbi Yeshua/Jesus.......... and so the rebuilding of the Ezekiel chapter 40 to 48 temple around that time...... does have some logic in it????!!!
I will appreciate your prayers regarding this!
.....
Canadian support for rebuilding of Jerusalem Third Temple Complex can alter Middle East political formula.
Is there a way in which growing Canadian support for the Jewish people in their desire to rebuild their Jerusalem Third Temple could be combined with a major peace initiative to the Islamic nations?
Would Prime Minister Stephen Harper who has control of parliament for three more years, perhaps be more interested in the alternative idea of investing in turning deserts green than he has been in some sort of carbon tax or cap and trade system?
I think so:
Proposal for the creation of a Quebec provincial currency unit to save coastal communities from threat of rising ocean levels.
I am advocating investing BILLIONS OF DOLLARS in turning deserts green all over the world as a method of combatting climate change. The Islamic nations have so much to gain from this initiative, if it becomes popular, that they would probably be more willing to give something significant to Canada's Jewish community.
I believe that control of the Jerusalem Temple Mount by the newly formed Jerusalem Sanhedrin and the right for Jews to rebuild and use their Third Temple to offer up sacrifices in the exact manner in which Moses/Moshe told them to do is something that a high percentage of Jewish Canadians would deeply appreciate.
I am of the belief that ancient Jewish, Christian and Islamic scriptures have ARTISTIC value that can be translated into both DIPLOMATIC and ECONOMIC VALUE. Wars can be prevented through books and film projects based on sacred scriptures that help us to better understand people raised within a totally different culture than us.
