Subject: Help Bible study to accept differences? |
Bible Note: Hey Hank. Thanks for the quote. That was good. I also printed up a long history of the change from Saturday to Sunday that, surprisingly, did not include the often biased misinterpretations. I'll print your response too and include it when or if necessary. The "Torah Club" is studying the Bible in the same way Jesus did following the yearly Torah and Haftarah portions that all Jews do today and did back in the first century. (Actually Jesus probably followed the three year cycle.) The Torah Club includes 2 years in the first five books, 1 year of the Haftarah (the rest of the Old Testament), 1 year in the Gospels, and 1 year in Acts-Revelations. It is written from a Jewish believer in Jesus as Messiah. I avoid using terms like "Messianic Jew" and "Hebrew roots" because they carry different meanings to different people. This has been by far the best study I have been in and continue in personally. I do not agree with everything in the study, but then I don't agree with everything others say either. MJH |
