I’m sorry to be the one to tell you that none of that is true at all. You may be missing a very rich and beautiful story- but it is your choice to listen.
I am an Old Testament, Torah girl, and the argument is that your statement is not universal finding that the Torah is not about prophecy. In fact, it is divided into sections to highlight the prophets.
The Old Testament is a beautiful love story about God’s love and the promise of Jesus.
I love every single word of the Old Testament, Torah. There is no way for me to read the book of Daniel, for starters, and not see it as a current day prophecy.
Even Leviticus points to prophecy and Jesus.
I love the New Testament as well, but I spend my time in the Old Testament, personally.
You do have a denomination. Christianity is Judaism. They are inseparable.
The reason I believe in Jesus is because I know He is alive. Just like the disciples who have actually died for their faith.
Jesus is alive to us and that takes pretty intense faith- and not at all based on a few words in a book.
That is illogical to believe people would die for a handful of verses.
If Christianity is Judaism then Martin Luther and all that followed and follow him are headed to a bad place according to Christian doctrine. Or am I missing something with this assumption?
