Dear Ed, You asked, "But aren't all real Jews looking for the Messiah?" (sic) I can hear my grandfather now... "So... there are unreal Jews already? You see these unreal people often? There are doctors for this." :-) Messiah is not hidden in some corner in which the Jews have failed to look. Judaism looks for a Messiah of their own fashioning. Have you not read... "I permitted Myself to be sought by those who did not ask for Me; I permitted Myself to be found by those who did not seek Me. I said, 'Here am I, here am I,' To a nation which did not call on My name. I have spread out My hands all day long to a rebellious people, Who walk in the way which is not good, following their own thoughts" (Isaiah 65:1-2 NASB) The Jews [presumably real ones] then gathered around Him [Jesus], and were saying to Him, "How long will You keep us in suspense? If You are the Christ [Messiah], tell us plainly." Jesus answered them, "I told you, and you do not believe; the works that I do in My Father's name, these testify of Me. But you do not believe because you are not of My sheep. My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me; and I give eternal life to them, and they will never perish; and no one will snatch them out of My hand. My Father, who has given them to Me, is greater than all; and no one is able to snatch them out of the Father's hand. I and the Father are one." (John 10:24-30 NASB) In Him, Doc |

I used the term real Jews to make differentiate between Jews in name only and Jews that earnestly desire to serve God. Just as there are real Christians and those that call themselves Christians but know not the Lord. Yes I know the failure of the Jew but I also know many still expect to see the conquering Messiah. Isn't that what the Book of Revelations is all about? When the Jews realize they missed the Messiah and repent and are saved. Oh I forgot you are probably a Preterist and don't see Revelations as I do either. |
