Can Jewish law be fulfilled?

Muffled

Jesus in me
Are admitting that you can't be bothered to live a simple moral life? This is too big a burden for you?

Have you even READ the list of seven commandments? And this is too much for you?

Is it that great a burden that you can't refrain from murder? Is it that great a burden that you can't refrain from stealing?

Really?

I lead a moral life without the law. The law says do not murder. However I don't have to think "I shouldn't murder because the law says so." I simply don't murder because there is a spirit of love of all people in me that is there as a result of asking Jesus to be my Lord and Savior.

It's not a burden, but you know... takes a nation...

No, it is a complete list. But you are so taken with relief in "not dealing with it" that you don't even know what it encompasses.

Then aren't you lucky you aren't a Jew?

Jesus didn't relieve you of that "burden." Simply not being a Jew means you never had to carry the full complement of commandments that God gave to Jews.

You are right. When Jews follow Torah law, it is a blessing to the world, and YOU didn't have to do anything to be a part of that blessing.

How lucky for you.

There is NO transgression in Jewish law which encompasses crucifixion as a punishment. So, this is absolute nonsense.

No, he's not.

By the Romans. Don't pin Jesus' death on the Jews. The "kangaroo court" in which Jesus was supposed to be found guilty is highly suspicious, and I'm not sure that it actually existed as other than bad fiction.

(It helps to know the general behavior of the people who would have comprised the Jewish court at the time, and the entirety of the story involved in what you think of as Jesus' defining moment is so twisted that it is not at all believable except by those who are more interested in wish fulfillment than truth.)


:rolleyes: In your own heart and mind.

Actually I would consider it a great honor to be both Christian and Jewish and probably was at least Jewish in a previous life, a follower of Jesus, just another face in the crowd but not a Christian at that time as far as my spirit can remember.

That is a good place to start because thinking and attitude have a lot to do with actions.
