Hi There.

From your posts here I am gathering that you think that Jewish and Christian are exclusive of one another for the most part.

Please bear in mind that I am not preaching to you here, I just have a much different view.

There is really good information out there on why they fit together perfectly. Here is a link to a guy (Dr. Michael Brown) who really knows his stuff. He is a Jew, and PHD in near east languages. It will be obvious that he has done his research if you are interested enough to dig just a bit. His books are available on Amazon if you want to pursue this at all. Jews for Jesus is another good source of information, as well as the books by Stanley Telchin.

All of the "Grafting in" that is talked about in the new testament is about being grafted in "to Israel". It is we (Gentiles) who must become Jews to be part of the whole. I believe that Jesus is the Jewish Messiah. Jews (Israel) are GOD'S chosen people according to the bible. This hasn't changed, (no matter what the koran may say).

Not one person will miss out on heaven, who hasn't been given the chance to accept GOD. We can't know what chances are given to each person throughout their life, and at their time of death, but I personally feel that GOD gives even the stubborn the opportunity and the information that they need right up until the very very end.

I accept Jesus (I call him Yeshua) as the Jewish Messiah. I sing the Shema, and celebrate the Feasts of the Lord as GOD requires of me (a practice that explains much of GOD's plan, including the Messiah).

If this isn't something you want to consider, please accept my apology for this post.
