Bible Note: Hi Steve, I hope you don't mind but I am going to respond with the same answer I gave Hank. "Again, this is the problem with labels. I believe that the Son of YHWH came to earth as a Jewish Rabbi and taught us how to live, died for our transgressions of the law/Torah, i.e. sins (1John 3:4) and will judge every human being based on His revealed will to us (Torah and any additional commandments from the sermon on the mount). If by being Christian you mean am I a pork-eating, Sabbath-breaking, replacement theologist who ignores the Biblical festivals in favor of man-made pagan rituals (xmas, easter, etc.)?---No, I am not. See what I mean about labels? I will say that my roots were in Protestant Christianity, but I heard the call of Revelation 18:4 "... Come out of her (the Babylonian whore), my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues". Hopefully this answers your question of how to label me and maybe you will answer the call as well. Did you know that there are over 22,000 different demoninations within Christianity? "Every plant (doctrine), which my heavenly Father hath not planted, shall be rooted up.(Matthew 15:13)" Greg Boone |
