EdB, run, don’t walk, to your nearest library. Grab the thickest “Jewish Encyclopedia” on the shelf. These encyclopedias, according to the one I have available in my home, “hope to extend and make available Jewish knowledge to JEWS”. You wrote, “No real Jew believes in reincarnation, or that Satan was created as God’s evil pawn.” In that same library book, look up “Kabbalah” (or, Cabalah). (which basically means "tradition") The book will explain that the major teachings of Jewish "tradition" include – (I'm quoting from one of my own, which says the same thing as some I have given away.) “God did NOT create the world personally…” “The Jews were chosen to preserve the created world…” "Impure and contaminated souls, MUST, after death, reinhabit another body, and then another, until they have purified.” (This world-wide Jewish teaching sure has the tone of reincarnation to me.) Look up the word “satan”. It will explain about the creation of the archangel (satan) whose functions are to tempt man to sin … he has no independent power, but appears only as a servant of God, whose permission he must seek …” While you have the encyclopedia in your hands, look up “Death”. You will read how “Hell is for 12 months max. It will tell you some Jews believe everybody, (Jews and Goys), will have a part in the world to come. The real wicked will be disintegrated. Or, save the trip. There are numerous Jewish Encyclopedias on the net. They ALL will show you the same thing. You also stated, “All Messianic Jews hold and treasure the New Testament book of Hebrews.” EdB, IF they held and treasured what the book of Hebrews says, they CAN'T BE Messianic "JEWS". They can only be pure and simple (No Jew, No Gentile) "Christians". Messianic Jews “Love only the Shadow” of Him who came. If they can't stop believing the "fundamentals" (feasts, etc.) of what ALL Jews believe and add Jesus to the mix - what do you suppose happens? I have witnessed exactly what happens. Every Jew, every Gentile, must count as rubbish ALL the "pre-born-again-traditons" in order to be set free to worship Him in spirit and in TRUTH. Why EMBRACE the shadow of your wife, when, if the "shadow" is present so is she? And as far as the other “jumped to conclusions” you charged ME with in your letter, like my brother coming home drunk – “AMEN!” and I wasn’t a follower of Jesus when I told my brother the same thing. You feel I presented “very pro Islamic propaganda”? I thought I was being pro-people towards those who believe a lie by building on what we DO believe together. Do you walk up to a JW co-worker and say, “Hey, Liar, I want to talk to you about how wrong that paper is you gave me.” Or would it not be better to say? “Hey, Clayton, can I take you out for lunch? I have some questions about what your paper The Watch Tower stated.” Does the second way mean I am “Pro-JW?” As far as your being "surprised" I have Jewish relatives, check out the profile someone, early on, suggested I post, which I did eons ago. Other postings about my “having enough Jewish blood in me to have been sent to the furnaces in Germany”, apparently were never seen. As for your comment about something I wrote about when you wrote: "Interestingly you were referring to Hebrews in another post using it as if you were very familiar with it which I now seriously question." Huh? Could you please elaborate? Thanks. Blessings, NOW you know “the rest of the story”. Taleb |

Hello Taleb, Here all along I have been under the impression that this was a Bible study forum not a study on tradition, have I been misinformed? Jesus had more trouble with those that followed the mixed up traditions of the Jew more then any other group! Mark 7:9 And he said unto them, Full well ye reject the commandment of God, that ye may keep your own tradition. Mark 7:13 Making the word of God of none effect through your tradition, which ye have delivered: and many such like things do ye. The Pharisees and the Sadducees were great when it came to the traditions you are suggesting but Jesus told them of their future! Matthew 23:27-33 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye are like unto whited sepulchres, which indeed appear beautiful outward, but are within full of dead men's bones, and of all uncleanness. 28Even so ye also outwardly appear righteous unto men, but within ye are full of hypocrisy and iniquity. 29Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! because ye build the tombs of the prophets, and garnish the sepulchres of the righteous, 30And say, If we had been in the days of our fathers, we would not have been partakers with them in the blood of the prophets. 31Wherefore ye be witnesses unto yourselves, that ye are the children of them which killed the prophets. 32Fill ye up then the measure of your fathers. 33Ye serpents, ye generation of vipers, how can ye escape the damnation of hell? Have a nice day, CDBJ |

CDBJ, your post to my defense, which included this phrase, “Jesus had more trouble with those that followed the mixed up traditions of the Jew more then any other group!” MADE my day. Thank you. Those verses ring so true. It causes me to wonder why the rest of those on this “Bible Study Forum” can’t see that also. Phil. 3:8-9: “Yea doubtless, and I count all things but loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord: for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and do count them but dung, that I may win Christ, and be found in him, NOT having mine own righteousness, WHICH IS OF THE LAW, BUT that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness WHICH IS OF GOD BY FAITH.” I heartily agree with you. There is no Jew, no Gentile to God, since the NEW freedom, purchased by Christ’s blood, replaced the OLD LAW and all its traditions. Thanks again. And I intend to have a great day, and weekend. :) Taleb |
