  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Some of the worst enemies of the Jewish people have been Jews. Messianics have had no luck in "winning" me because I know the scriptures they try to use and am not caught off guard often. Further, I know the Torah says to keep the Torah throughout every generation and that nobody is to add to the Torah. "Freeing" us from the Torah is adding to it, in my opinion.

We have been resistant for 2000 years, even when swords were held to us and said kiss the cross or kiss the sword. We have died for our faith many times over.

These two statements contradict each other.
Not only that, but his grammar is also a little off base :p

I ended up having to re-read the first statement there. For some reason, the first thing I read was "have you seen may grandma". LOL

I never comment on grammar. As long as I can understand what people are trying to say, I do not comment.

This is a fascinating subject.
I think one quote that the Jewish people seem to have overlooked a little hastily is that they will look with their hearts.

Is that not the only message of Jesus? Especially in the four gospels that the romans chose to be the only gospels. Seems to me that all of the other ones are being fulfilled quite quickly. The weapons one will fall into place.
There is only one God, so we have to presume that it is the same God as I choose to worship even though I be neither Jewish nor Christian :) Worshipping the christian god is worshoping the Israeli god is it not? Worshipping the Islamic God s also worshiping the Jewish god is it not?
As for the desire for immediacy of fulfilling the prophecies, I find it very odd that anyone would think a day would be a day for god. God made the sun, he does not spin around it and therfore trapped in our dimension of time. He made time > )

The issue at hand is not if Jesus' message was good or kind or anything else like that. The message of love is not one that is outside of Judaism. We have our own people who speak of loving others and being kind.
The issue is if Jesus meets the qualifications to be the Messiah, a specific person that is foretold in prophecy. Speaking of love is not a qualification.
There is only one God, so we have to presume that it is the same God as I choose to worship even though I be neither Jewish nor Christian :) Worshipping the christian god is worshoping the Israeli god is it not? Worshipping the Islamic God s also worshiping the Jewish god is it not?
I have no problem with Christians and Muslims worshiping the same being. I never would say differently.
As for the desire for immediacy of fulfilling the prophecies, I find it very odd that anyone would think a day would be a day for god. God made the sun, he does not spin around it and therfore trapped in our dimension of time. He made time > )

We have no timetable for the events to occur. To be honest, Christians have the timetable of "soon" for whatever that is worth.

Again, the question is not "is it happening now?" the question is if Jesus meets the qualifications to be the Messiah. Weighed by the measure Judaism uses, namely the all the prophecies are fulfilled by the Messiah, Jesus is found lacking those qualifications. Christians say he will return and finish the job. If he does, I will accept him as the Messiah. Until then I am skeptical.

Christians say [Jesus] will return and finish the job. If he does, I will accept him as the Messiah. Until then I am skeptical.

Then you might want to look into the Baha'i Faith (another Abrahamic religion, BTW) given that it teaches that the Christ Spirit already returned about a century and a half ago with the new name both the Jewish and Christian scriptures promised!

Peace, :)
