Kobojunkie: Of a truth... multifaceted can be misconstrued. So I understand your concern. But that doesn't diminish the that God truly is multifaceted. Same God chose Peter as Apostle. He also chose Paul as Apostle. Reading acts and galatians, you'll understand that God taught them in different ways. |

Myer:I don't see that at all. Instead, what I see are religious men rushing to inject what are private interpretations(lies) born of ignorance and atimes arrogance into that recorded in the book of Acts, and the various Epistles all in an attempt to portray God as some multifaceted demon whose Word, Jesus Christ, cannot then be everlasting and unchanging as previously claimed. |

Again, none of my Catholic / Christian or Messianic believing friends will get this… Jesus / Yeshua never existed so Jesus / Yeshua could never have said any of those things you read in the New Twistament (Testament). There is no "Holy Spirit''. If you are talking to a dead guy who never existed and he now lives in you then you have been deceived by a "familiar spirit". You know you are not supposed to communicate with familiar spirits, right? Here’s what YHUH / YHWH / YHVH has to say about communicating with familiar spirits & the dead in general... Leviticus 19:31 ‘Do not turn to mediums, and do not seek after spiritists to be defiled by them. I am YHWH your Elohim. Leviticus 20:6-8 ‘And the being who turns to mediums, and to spiritists, to go whoring after them, I shall set My face against that being and cut him off from the midst of his people. ‘And you shall set yourselves apart, and shall be set-apart, for I am YHWH your Elohim, and you shall guard My laws and do them. I am YHWH, who sets you apart. Leviticus 20:27 ‘And a man or a woman in whom there is a medium, or who are spiritists, shall certainly be put to death, they are to stone them with stones. Their blood is upon them.’ ” Deuteronomy 18:10-12 “Let no one be found among you who makes his son or his daughter pass through the fire, or one who practises divination, or a user of magic, or one who interprets omens or a sorcerer, or one who conjures spells, or a medium, or a spiritist, or one who calls up the dead. “For whoever does these is an abomination to YHWH, and because of these abominations YHWH your Elohim drives them out from before you. Deuteronomy 18:10-14 “Let no one be found among you who makes his son or his daughter pass through the fire, or one who practises divination, or a user of magic, or one who interprets omens or a sorcerer, or one who conjures spells, or a medium, or a spiritist, or one who calls up the dead. “For whoever does these is an abomination to YHWH, and because of these abominations YHWH your Elohim drives them out from before you. “Be perfect before YHWH your Elohim, for these nations whom you are possessing do listen to those using magic and to diviners. But as for you, YHWH your Elohim has not appointed such for you. The Major Prophets just reiterate what was already spoken to Moses... Isaiah 8:19 - And when they shall say unto you, Seek unto them that have familiar spirits, and unto wizards that peep, and that mutter: should not a people seek unto their God? for the living to the dead? Isaiah 19:3 - And the spirit of Egypt shall fail in the midst thereof; and I will destroy the counsel thereof: and they shall seek to the idols, and to the charmers, and to them that have familiar spirits, and to the wizards. Read all these wonderful verses from other Major Prophets about communicating with familiar spirits: 2 Kings 9:22, 2 Kings 21:6, 2 Kings 23:24, 1 Chronicles 10:13-14, 2 Chronicles 33:6, 1 Samuel 28:3-25. If you want to learn how to keep the 10 Commandments perfectly and lead a holy & healthy life amongst YHWH and your neighbor read Exodus chapter 20 through 23 & Leviticus chapter 11 through 23 day and night so that you guard to do according to all that is written in His Torah. For then you shall make your way prosperous, and act wisely, Yoshua 1:1-9 & 24:14-17, 19-27. Saleh |

The paths from Christianity to Judaism are many. Some searching for a deeper understanding of the Hebrew texts (Torah and the rest of the Tanach) discover the many Christian misinterpretations and begin to seriously question what they have been taught. Sensing that they have been lied to by Christianity, they seek the truth by accepting Torah. Another path starts with questioning some of the basic beliefs of Christianity and finding them wanting. Many cannot accept the idea of a virgin birth, the Original sin, or found no spiritual growth in the repetitive prayers such as the rosary, litanies, etc. Here are a few more reasons: 1.) Judaism is not a proselytizing religion . . .its focus is on quality, not quantity. 2.) The Christian Scriptures, when you actually read them, point directly to Judaism as the basis of true faith. 3.) Judaism historically values wide education and dialogue, not dogma. 4. ) The history of Christianity ( both Roman Catholic and Protestant ) is not one with which one wants to be associated. 5.) Judaism has retained its integrity through 2000 years of persecution, exile, dispersion, and genocidal attempts to extinguish it. 6.) Christianity has changed its values as the wind blows over the ages, but Judaism has not. 7.) Judaism is the Abrahamic faith . . . Christianity and Islam are both extremely distorted, and violent and have brought more sorrow than joy into this world. 8.) Christianity and Islam depend on instilling fear in their followers to keep them malleable and manipulable . . . fear of hell, fear of life, fear of death, fear of one’s own humanity. Judaism celebrates our similarities and differences. 9.) Judaism postulates a direct relationship with G-d. There is no intermediary between G-d and man. Judaism dictates that we are all directly responsible for our actions before G-d . . . now . . . not in the hereafter. The soul of every man will be judged by his fellow man. The souls of all creatures ( other than man ) will be judged by G-d himself. ( Exodus 9:5 ) AND . . . 10.) The simple fact that after 2000 years of conquest, exile, dispersion, persecution, and genocidal attempts to erase Jews from the face of the earth, the fact that the Jewish people have returned to their ancestral home, on the same soil, speaking the same language and with the same religion is an occurrence unprecedented in all of recorded human history. |

Something is wrong with the Yashua/Jesus messiah…. In the Hebrew text the Messiah must Build the Third Temple (Ezekiel 37:26-28). Gather all Jews back to the Land of Israel (Isaiah 43:5-6). Usher in an era of world peace, and end all hatred, oppression, suffering and disease. As it says: "Nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall man learn war anymore." (Isaiah 2:4) Spread universal knowledge of the God of Israel, which will unite humanity as one. As it says: "God will be King over all the world – on that day, God will be One and His Name will be One" (Zechariah 14:9). Come from the line of King David (see Genesis 49:10, Isaiah’s 11:1, Jeremiah 23:5, 33:17; Ezekiel 34:23-24). The most important aspect each one of these prophecies teach us about the Messiah is that if an individual fails to fulfill even one of these conditions during his lifetime, then that individual cannot be the prophesied King Messiah of the final redemption. The New Testament Messiah Jesus/Yeshua has failed with fulfilling everyone of these messianic prophecies, which excludes him from being the Messiah. 1 Like |

sonmvayina: From God {2Timothy 3:16} who promised to establish another covenant with the house of Israel {Jeremiah 31:31-34} and it will be taken to all other nations {Psalms 110:3} and many people (that got the message) will say "let's go and worship the God of Abraham" {Isaiah 2:2} and they will use the wise counsel from His Son {Isaiah 9:6} to teach themselves {Isaiah 2:3} and they will successfully settle all their disparities among themselves, divert their resources into production of food and information materials, erased the making, buying, selling and usage of weapons and vow never to raise weapons against anyone again! Isaiah 2:4 So Matthew, Mark, Luke, John and Paul got what they wrote from this God as you can see that what He promised is fulfilling today in the midst of a global family of peace loving worshipers called Jehovah's Witnesses!

sonmvayina: The problem you're having is those faithless idiots claiming "Jews" because reading, quoting and cursing people due to what is written in a book makes no practical sense if you can't present the benefits of what you're quoting. Jehovah's Witnesses are performing globally and it's exactly what God promised that's done in their midst. So you can go to hell with you, your faithless Judaists and your hopeless Torah! |

sonmvayina: You only need to know what exactly is wrong that makes something IDOLATRY. Without indepth knowledge you may even be an idolater yet accusing the real worshipers of God. IDOLATRY is not just a word you throw here and there to justify your choice of beliefs. The only thing wrong that makes a religion idolatry is inability to meet up with God's will there's no way practicers of idolatry can fulfil what God purposely assigned to His people so whatever makes a group of people fulfil God's promise then your senses should tell you that they have the backing of God Himself so you calling them IDOLATERS shows the level of your IQ! 1 Like |

sonmvayina: The problem I have with your likes is u don't bri g evidence for your claims or u can't successfully defend the wack evidence u bring. U claim Jesus doesnt exist. I've had this discussion with your fellow Jews and atheist. Once u present irrefutable evidence of historicity of Jesus they gas out. They can't counter it. They simply run away, hide for a while then come out to produce another useless thread about non existent of jesus. U love believing in your delusion. It's like a steroid needed to validate your own religion. U know why? because without Christianity, both Islam and judaism will be regarded as occultic sect and likely banned in some communities. So it's important u badmouth Christianity to give credibility to what u worship. Until Jesus arrived on the scene, the god of the Jews was regarded as a violent bloodthirsty deity who delights in genocide and mass killing. He wasn't popular at all. Jesus who is God in human flesh came and made it clear that God is full of grace and mercy. He is a loving God who desires to restore humanity back to his lost glory. The Constitution given to the ancient Israelites was due to their evil hearts. If there was no Jesus and no new testament, I would regard those who follow the tanakh as crazy and psychotic people to believe in a violent and murderous god. Even Jews would have abandoned the religion by now. But of course u and other Judaism followers can run your mouth because of Jesus Christ. Know this and let it stick to your skull, the only reason u can proudly declare u are a judaism adherent is because of Jesus Christ. Without Jesus Christ, your religion would be regarded as occultic and pagan. It would be no different from amadioha worshippers. So every morning b4 u enter into your Jewish religion, first thank God for sending Jesus Christ because without him there would have been no hope even for u in Judaism. |

The Torah is the most beautiful literature I have ever come across... because I understand it... It was not written from r the he world. It was written by the Jews for the Jews ... It was the Romans who stole it and added their roman paganism at the end of it to give their religion some credibility and deceive you..and you foolishly fell for it.. |
