Bible Answer: Dear bloodofjesus, Greetings: In our travels through God's Word certain passages are opened to our understanding as God permits that we can grow and with that understanding we go on to other Graces that our Lord leads us to. Your last words were "babe in christ", and God and all the angels in heaven rejoyce in finding you. Getting to your post, Christianity was not taken to them by us, Chritianity started in Israel. But they rejected Jesus when He was there in their midst. They saw Him, touched Him, listened to Him and judged Him. It is not that they are wrong and we are right. The Gospel came to us because they rejected Him. If they had not, the Gentiles (in the scriptures, a pagan; a worshipper of false gods; any person not a Jew or a christian; a heathen), would be lost. And, if you are not of the Jewish heritage, would include you also. Therefore we give God all thanks for allowing this to come to pass. To learn more about the Grace that came to us may I suggest reading and studying Romans chapter 10 and 11. This will explain the affect that the Jewish rejection had on the rest of the world. God loves all His people and if He didn't offer a way of salvation to the entire world He would be a liar. After your studies are complete and you still have any questions, I know that the believers that follow this forum would be grateful if they could help you further. May I also suggest that in your studies you choose a Bible translation that best conforms to the gifts that our Lord has given you. Again, that is Romans chapter 10 and chapter 11. And, as always, ask God to open your mind to His Word. The Comforter (Holy Spirit) will lead you into all truth. And the key phrase here is "lead you" not "push you". May the wisdom of The Father come upon you. terrib |
