Bible Note: Hello Angel! No, the questions were copied from a Jewish site, but still, other than part about the deity of Jesus, they expressed my own lack of understanding as well ... I have a really hard time understanding why the Jewish people have not accepted Jesus in all this time and had begun looking through their sites to get some concept of why - would help if I had a witnessing opportunity to understand where they are coming from...as I looked into the passages they mentioned, in many I shared the same perplexity as to the meaning of the passage and how it relates appropriately to Jesus (not out of doubt that He's LORD, but out of a desire to better understand Him in the scriptures) I really LOVE the study of prophecy as I eagerly await the rapture and supposedly the conversion of the Jewish people is a huge factor in the fullness of time coming into being. Also, just am intrigued by all the richness and hidden meaning in the OT as I learn more about the Jewish feasts and customs and how it related to Our Lord, Who of course practiced them and was represented in them. I've often said, I wish I knew of a "Messianic CHRISTIAN" church...a place for Christians to learn their JEWISH roots without converting to judaism of course. Does such a church exist?? Thanks for your enthusiastic reply, your time, and mostly for wanting to help (esp. if I had been questioning the authenticity of Jesus as Lord). Actually sometimes I find the passages that they (the jews) disagree with to be equally unclear, and want to better understand them. Examining all the other places in the OT where there were obvious references to Jesus and most of all, look into my heart where He resides, I thankfully KNOW WHO He is :-) |
