So then how does one explain Christianity's rejection of Torah?
If Yah’shua is both WORD & SPIRIT, let's revisit an analogy of a teaching I heard that is based on an ancient Hebrew teaching of “black fire” & “white fire”.
Say the white pages of the Bible are the SPIRIT(white fire) and the black ink being the WORD(black fire). What happens when one puts the black ink on a black page that casts no light or contrast? Can one discern what the WORD says without Light?
Now reverse the scenario. What happens when the WORD is removed thereby leaving a blank page? By instinct what does human nature do when they are given a blank page? They write their own words upon it.
Therefore since Yah’shua Messiah is both WORD & SPIRIT/LIGHT, once either one is removed from the other, thereby basically severing Yah’shua Messiah in half, it is impossible to know Yah’shua Messiah.
Thus Any religious doctrine that proffers SPIRIT without TORAH has given themselves nothing but blank pages to write upon; whatever they want.
What makes you think it has?
