    Salvation by works or faith isn't the point.

    Jews are coming to faith in Jesus, in record numbers. So much so that the State ministry has to create laws against us, and perpetuate decades of discrimination. Why would you treat us the same? Is that a proper form of evangelizing? Never understand? That is a lie. Why can't you love us as God...

    No, what is obvious to me is, your cap lock, and you hold to replacement theology.

    Salvation by works or faith isn't the point.

    Do you really want me to promote the ever growing population of native born Messianic Jews in Israel? Here is one article from a very good ministry. https://www.oneforisrael.org/bible-based-teaching-from-israel/a-short-history-of-messianic-judaism/

    Salvation by works or faith isn't the point.

    Nice try at a deflection, not buying it though. A nation is made up of individuals. Again I ask, can you lift up 'the Jews', as a people or a nation. Because both are ''favored" in the eyes of God. And it's part of Jesus' mission to bring back and restore ALL, which includes the individual...

    Salvation by works or faith isn't the point.

    Actually, John 10:1-19 does. Specifically verse 18. You seem to continually throw The Jews under the proverbial bus. Have you anything positive to say about them? Can you lift them up like our God does? Or are we the ever loving example of what NOT to do? You do realize God has a hope and a...

    I think heaven and hell have be misconstrued for ages. Many false ideas have been taught causing much confusion. I think you're on the right track, keep your eyes on the prize all else is vanity.

    Salvation by works or faith isn't the point.

    Yet your message is "The Jews rejected him". You're communicating that when... if you can not identify how Acts 21 states otherwise I don't know how to help you. Except to say you probably shouldn't use blanket statements like "the Jews".

    Salvation by works or faith isn't the point.

    So how do you explain away this? Acts 21 17 When we arrived at Jerusalem, the brothers and sisters received us warmly. 18 The next day Paul and the rest of us went to see James, and all the elders were present. 19 Paul greeted them and reported in detail what God had done among the Gentiles...

    I found this study very interesting in regards to the Nephilim.

    The Gospel Of Israel

    This appears like you think God didn't know what would happen and had to adjust the plan by adding the nations into Israel's blessings. But the nations coming to God through Israel was the plan all along. Israel was pruned, and room made for grafting. Not into Israel but the Tree of Life. Did...

    Does God want us to choose between law and grace?

    I saw it raise it's head as Messianism grew over the years. I think they found fertile yeasts to ferment the ideology. I have a huge red flag with most all religio-politico ideologies. If it doesn't build up it tears down. And if the only message is to tear down you are not lifting anyone up...

    The Gospel Of Israel

    Israel has a place and purpose God’s Kingdom ‘alongside’ the nations of the world. These and many other scriptures show overwhelmingly that Israel is dealt with in a different manner than the nations of the world. Israel is redeemed out of the nations in glory to God, and the nations are saved...

    The Gospel Of Israel

    The prophets speak of the return of the remnant of Israel. And in those texts, the return of the King and the connection to the new covenant are inextricably linked. The King would return and re-gather his people to his Kingdom. As the nations of the world understand and believe in this...

    The Gospel Of Israel

    ◾Does the church inherit the New Covenant? — If Heb 8:8-13 says Gentiles are participating in the New Covenant made with Israel, does this mean the church has become the new Israel since it is experiencing the fulfillment of the covenant. No! Hebrews 8:8-13 has a present...

    The Gospel Of Israel

    ◾Does our equality rule out any restoration of Israel? — Since Jews and Gentiles are now united, do Jews lose their identity? Do texts like Eph 2:11–22 and Rom 11:17–24 teach there is no special identity or role for national Israel? No! Our equality does not negate Israel’s identity nor rule...

    The Gospel Of Israel

    ◾Is the Church the new Israel? Does Galatians 6:15-16 identify the church as Israel? Do texts such as Rom 2:28–29 and 1 Pet 2:9–10 apply Israel’s imagery to the church? Identifying the church as the new Israel? The Church and Israel are distinct entities Of the 73 references to “Israel” in...

    The Gospel Of Israel

    The following 4 points display the inconsistencies with supersessionism: ◾Has Israel been rejected? Does Matthew 21:43 indicate the kingdom of God was taken from the nation Israel and given to the New Testament church? And does this indicate a change in the people of God from national Israel to...

    The Gospel Of Israel

    Quite simply the opposite. The self proclaimed Church has separated themselves as something apart from Israel. Messianic Jews seemingly can not enter into apologetics with Christians without being confronted by replacement theology, or supersessionism. The doctrine of supersessionism holds...

    Does God want us to choose between law and grace?

    I'd say it is foolish to attempt to operate under a legal system that doesn't apply to us, having been made obsolete by the changes in the legal system Jesus brought about through his very own words and actions. God transformed the law and changed the covenant. How is it showing love to deny...

    Does God want us to choose between law and grace?

    As a Jewish believer it's so strange to see you describe it this way. Considering the law was given as a way to enter into the presence of the Holy One of Israel. The law commanded the ark which contained the very presence of God's glory. God gave the law to Israel so they could have a means to...
