There are a multitude of us who are in contact and fellowship with the Messiah, Jesus of Nazareth daily. My contact with Him this morning was most assuring, as always.
What did he say?
Jewish people do not recognize Jesus as the fulfillment of scripture. Jesus is the reason for the Christian church. They are not the same Messiah - no matter what our Christian education teaches. I lived two years in Israel, and they hold the Christian one rung on the ladder below the Arab/Islamist. In a sense they are correct by their way of believing because the Arab came first before the gentile even though our Church came before Islam. Hard to reasonably argue with them. I accept their beliefs in spite of their dismissive attitude about Christianity.
