Questions about Judaism

Why are Christians so eager to get us Jews killed?

Here is an article by a man from Uganda that I first read back in 2011, ( I think), and I agree with
his theory......(even though he certainly does not write in a politically correct manner).

Dear brethren,
I salute you in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ!

RE: SHARING NEW DISCOVERIES OF THE TRUTH IN BIBLE PROPHECY CONCERNING THE IMMINENT HEALING AND UNITY OF THE CHURCH

I am mesmerized by the truth in bible prophecy that the Spirit of God has been revealing over the recent years. Secret things belong to God and those that are revealed belong to us and our children... (Deut 29: 29).

1. King Cyrus the great ruled his country 555 years Before Christ i.e. from 576 BC to 530 BC and authorised the rebuilding of the second temple in Jerusalem. Cyrus of the Old Testament is hence associated with the number 555 and is the shadow figure of incoming Cyrus II of the New Testament. You may learn more about his history from the internet and scriptures. This new truth enables us to identify the leadership of the world that will rebuild the temple in Jerusalem as prophesied in book of Isaiah before the rise of antichrist. Cyrus II is coming to revive the evangelical/Pentecostal church in Jerusalem and restore the headquarters of the church in same city where the church was born. He is set to strip Babylon of the vessels of the temple and the name of the Lord God and transfer that crown back to Jerusalem thus leaving Babylon naked. Cyrus will rebuild the temple in Jerusalem in fulfilment of the prophecy of Jesus as written in the book of John 2:18-23 and the prophecy of Isaiah as written in chapters 40, 41, 45 and 47 of the book of Isaiah. Jesus regarded the temple as the symbol of his own body while saying that he had the power to lay it down on the first day (1st millennium) and rebuild or raise it up on the 3rd day (3rd millennium). Remember that one day in the eyes of God is the same as one thousand years (millennium) as stated in book of 2 Peter 3:8. Rebuilding of the temple is thus associated with unification of the church.

Cyrus II will rebuild the temple in honour of our lord Jesus Christ. The temple will be the unifying (rallying) point of the world wide evangelical church as the original headquarters of the church. Psalms133 denotes that there is such a powerful anointing that comes along with unity among brethren. Unification of the whole body of Jesus Christ will make the church so powerful that she will overrun the world within a short time before the return of our lord Jesus Christ. A divided church is a powerless church whereas a united church is a powerful church. The church can only be able to fulfil her ultimate mission of revealing Jesus to the world once we get united as one body of Jesus Christ following his last prayer for his disciples as written in John 17:20-23.

Cyrus II will erase that false image of Jesus that the counterfeit and Idolatrous state church of Babylon has been projecting around the world and revive the original church that projects the true brilliant image of Jesus Christ. Haggai 2:9 says that the glory of the latter church (temple) will be greater than the glory of the former church (temple).The rise of Cyrus will also usher in the ultimate fulfilment of the prophecy of Joel 2:28 where God intends to pour out His Spirit on all flesh in these last days. The era of Cyrus brings the gentile period of grace to its close and leads to the restoration of the Jewish period of grace and salvation.




2. King Manasseh was the shadow figure (forerunner) of the antichrist in the Old Testament who ruled over Jerusalem exactly 666 years Before Christ i.e. from 697 BC to 642 BC. (2 chronicle 33: 1-2 and 2 kings 21: 1-17). Antichrist is associated with the number 666 as written in the book of Revelation 13:18. Manasseh was the most evil king to have ever ruled over the city of Jerusalem and kingdom of Judah.

Manasseh is reported to have killed so many innocent people in Jerusalem that the streets of Jerusalem were flowing with blood; he worshiped pagan idols and stars; he built pagan alters for idols and stars in the very courtyards of the temple; he sacrificed his sons to idols; he consulted diviners and mediums; he even set up an abominable pagan image at the temple that causes desolation just as the incoming antichrist will do. It was on that basis that God decided to have that first temple destroyed completely since Manasseh had desecrated it.



3. Prophet Jonah was the shadow figure (forerunner) of Jesus Christ in the Old Testament who undertook his prophetic ministry around 777 B.C. Prophet Jonah is hence associated with the number 777. He arose from the shadow and demise of Prophet Elisha. His preaching radiated such great power and authority that turned the city of Nineveh as the rising super power of that time up side down within 3 days only (read the book of Jonah). Jonah was the prophetic force behind the restoration of the lost territories of Israel in the reign of King Jeroboam II of Israel between 782 BC and 741 BC as written in II Kings 14:25. Jonah related with God more or less as his own father and God loved him more or less as His own son. He volunteered to die save occupants of the ship and was raised to life after three days just like Jesus Christ. Jesus compared himself with Jonah as his forerunner in the Old Testament as far as his earthly ministry, death and resurrection was concerned in Mathew 12; 38-41, Luke 11; 29-32. Jesus will also oversee the restoration of the lost territories of Israel just like prophet Jonah when he comes to rule as the king of kings and Lord of Lords. We can therefore correctly associate Jesus Christ with the number 777 just like Jonah as our commander-in-chief, Lord of the Sabbath and fountain of life.

The more we know where we came from the more we know where we are going. You are cordially invited to visit my face book home page for more information and messages. Feel free to share this truth with other brethren just as I received it free of charge from God.

"Something something Jesus"

Boring.

Thank you for commenting........
I believe firmly the Rabbi Yeshua - Jesus - Issa participated in a metaphorical Passover event.....
but in our time period there will be a metaphorical Yom Kippur event....... that will involve two people more so like "goats"
rather than lambs / sheep.........
and what they produce will be much more interesting to you.

Nah we got Yom Kippur every year. Don't really need a metaphorical one that apparently has nothing to do with Yom Kippur anyway.

Azazel Baalzebub........
i suspect would tend to differ with you on that idea.

Rabbi Yeshua - Jesus - Issa.... played out his role for the physical and metaphorical descendants of Abraham......
but by playing out his role in such an Academy Award winning manner........
he set up one or more of his followers.......
to play a role that is even better than that played by Bar Abbas / Barabbas.

Darth Vader = Azazel = Zeus???

Darth Vader aka Azazel aka Zeus???

I have been fasting on Yom Kippur / The Day of Atonement since I was a teenager back in the 1970's. It was only logical that I would notice some probable hidden meaning in certain verses in the Jewish and Christians scriptures as well as in popular culture that others might tend to miss.

I actually volunteered for something rather unusual back in 1990. I wrote my offer and the resulting experiences up and sent them as an e-mail to Jerusalem Sanhedrin Rabbi Yeshayahu Hollander back in 2010.

I have a few questions about the Torah and those parts considered as acceptable by Jews. Which books (I am not sure what the various parts are called after the first five books of Moses) are in the Jewish Torah or Bible.

Thank you. So are those considered inspired by God and truthful?

Yes but probably not in the way you think.

We don't simply read the Torah, we study it. We also don't take everything literally.

@Tumah or @rosends will be able to explain it better but it's either still Shabbat where they are or already Shavuot.
You might get the answer you seek Monday night or Tuesday.

Let me rephrase. Do you believe those writings?
Yes, we believe that those Books were written with various degrees of Prophecy and Divine Inspiration.

Your question is a little odd though, as it's not clear why you would think that a religious Jew wouldn't believe their own Scriptures. Either you're trying to lead the question somewhere, or you've been misinformed by your religion about Jews.

Reasons I'm not converting to Judaism:

1. Stupid questions.
2. Stupid questions.
3. Stupid questions.

One reason is that most of my family is Jewish and I know they think it's mythical, not real. As far as religious goes, they attended synagogue. But I am not in contact with the rabbi any more, I left that area many years ago. I was told at a family Seder when I spoke of the resurrection accounts that the Bible is mythical and their belief is based on tradition, not the Bible. But that was not the reason for my asking.
My reason for asking is why do you think, since the Books were written with, as you say, various degrees of prophecy and divine inspiration, these books of prophecy and divine inspiration have stopped being written?

I hear you, but I think it should be obvious that this would be a difference between religious and non-religious Jews.

Because it became impossible to gain that level of prophecy after the destruction of the First Temple. So only the people who were already prophets at that point, were able to carry on.

Thank you for your reply. How very interesting. So, Moses began writing somewhere in 1500 BCE, would you agree with that? After all, when I went to synagogue that rabbi (a reform one, if you haven't guessed by now) taught us nothing about the Scriptures themselves, such as when they were written, and things like that. I mean there were festivals and they did reading from the Torah weekly, but I don't remember much instruction about it. Since I find the subject interesting, I hope you won't mind discussing it with me.
