Bible Note: Johnny: WHOA! I think you have a burr in your saddle, friend. Why are you coming across like your in a corner, and trying to fight your way out. Take a breath. Calm down and let the peace of Christ fill you. Let me assure you that I am not a follower of Mosess. My LORD is Jesus Christ. I do not agree with SINCHAT TORAH. I try to show kindness, and respect, by listening, and dialogue. That is my life style, rather than argue, and attack. We all have different ways of dealing with the beliefs that are beyond Christian Orthodoxy. Be wise Johnny and see there are a few new forum participants that seem to advocate a eclictic view of Christianity, and combining Jewish beliefs and traditions. This is an opportunity to to learn how to dialogue with these people who need the full understanding of Christ' completing the law, and His blood was the final sacrifice once and for all. Perhaps you missunderstood something I wrote. Basicly I was suggesting that the more you know anout cults the better equiped you are to dialogue with someone of that belief. With the srcipture as a two edged sord and the wisdom of knowing how their belief systen has specfic flaws we know of, we can be a more effective tool. In Romans 3:24 "and are justified freely by His grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus." Johnny there is no other way but salvation by Grace through Jesus! We are in total agreement. Let your love for others show so they can see Christ in you. Be at peace, we are Brothers in Christ. agape, justme |
