4 times,and she kept marrying the same guy?
some people just dont learn from their mistakes, do they?
She jokes about it all the time....
her first was a justice of the peace wedding
her second was Reform after she went through a Reform conversion
her third was Conservative after she upgraded to a Conservative conversion
her fourth was Orthodox when she went through yet another conversion
(Orthodox).
She should have just converted Orthodox in the first place, it would have
saved a lot of time and effort!

I used to know a Messianic Rabbi who had 7 'wives' all of whom lived with him and with whom he had a number of children. He must be really loony - 7 wives and 7 mothers-in-law!

At least ChavaK's multi-wedding couple just re-married each other.

I wonder if loving, doting papa had to pay for all of them? hehehe and is he still loving and doting?

That's what Paul was so busy talking about and why he's so misunderstood today. There is NO NEED to convert to Judaism to be a believer in the Messiah. He is what was promised to Abraham that would bless all nations, if they will only choose to receive.

To do such a thing, convert to Judaism to switch again touo Christianity would be a very dishonest thing. If I'm not mistaken, one must renounce any and all spiritual allegiances in the formal conversion process. And you would be swearing this oath in God's name - could you do this knowing it wouldn't be true? Is that something that you could easily rationalize and justify? I couldn't.

Instead why don't you just join us, we are Jews and Gentiles here in Messianic Judaism forums. We are all members of the same family of the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob! There's room for many more! :groupray:

Pssssssssst....Yedida...that part about converting was clearly a joke :p

....sלסגור את המעגל
,so to speak :)
in the spirit of your joke ...

-Rabbi,I want to get married
-Great, it will complete you.
- But what if wife will be unkind or nagging?
- You are right, then dont.
- But she is from respectable family and has good parents.
- Then go ahead and marry.
- What if it doesnt work out, we divorce, she takes all I have?
- Hm.. good point. dont marry yet.
- But I am lonely being single and...
(Rabbi interrupts and points his finger out of the window to a church across the street)
Yitzik! I have a solution for you. Convert to Christianity.
- O_O Whaaaaat?but why, Rabbi...
- So you go there and annoy the pastor with your questions,not me!



HAHAHA Hilarious, thank you ^_^

Yeshua came to redeem and teach us how to walk out Torah (G~d's instructions). To switch from one religion to another and then back will only frustrate you (not to mention everyone else!). Just read the Words of Yeshua and follow Him.

another know-it-all with no sense of humor to know at all ^_^

Why oh why do we get these "folks" who think they, by their "righteous" words can waltz into a forum of which they know nothing about and then expect us to finally come to our collective senses because they have graced us with their presence?
Hey Grace (that's a misnomer) have you read our rules of conduct? You are in violation and in danger of (if it has not already been used) being red buttoned.
Have a nice Christian day.

Who were they?

People I have seen posting on forums who desire to be Jewish but
can't give up Christianity. They don't understand these are two
entirely different religions and you can't become a Jew while
believing in Jesus.

One thing is for sure, I have no desire to become Jewish. I do however have a desire to follow God and if it looks a lot like a Jewish faith in certain areas... :thumbsup: in those things we are on the same page.

What do you consider in a "Jewish way"?
Only things that existed in the time of Jesus, or
those things that have developed since then?

:thumbsup: Me three. Hashem took pains to show us that being His and being gentile is prophecy in fulfillment. Works for me!!;)
