John Kasich links Jesus’ blood to Passover at matzah bakery
The Times of Israel ^ | 4/14/15 | Uriel Heilman

Posted on 04/14/2016 1:04:43 PM PDT by Nachum

JTA — If Ohio Gov. John Kasich’s visit to Hasidic Brooklyn this week had yielded only one amusing moment, Dayenu – it would have been enough.

But, thank God, there were many in the Republican presidential candidate’s visit to a Jewish bookstore, shmura matzah bakery and Hasidic school in Borough Park on Tuesday.

“It’s a wonderful, wonderful holiday for our friends in the Jewish community – the Passover,” Kasich told reporters after emerging from the matzah bakery, a box of the fresh-baked stuff in hand.

Yes, Jews are known to love The Passover, almost as much they love The Pre-Election Drop-By from vote-seeking politicians.

Flanked by Hasidic publicist Ezra Friedlander, Kasich then launched into a brief appraisal of the links between Passover and, um, the blood of Jesus Christ.

“The great link between the blood that was put above the lampposts” – er, you mean doorposts, governor — “the blood of the lamb, because Jesus Christ is known as the lamb of God. It’s his blood, we believe …”

What are you learning? To be real estate developers...

2 Chronicles 30:17 For there were many in the assembly who had not sanctified themselves; therefore the Levites had charge of the slaughter of the Passover lambs for everyone who was not clean, to sanctify them to the Lord.

Mmm, gotta get matzah in the morning...

Wow. Just wow! So wrong on so many levels. Not the one of which is factually.

He must be fatigued from the campaign trail. That is the best spin anyone could put on this.

Thanks for the ping Nachum!

That is very generous of you. :). I just don’t see Kasich as a Biblical scholar.

“They don’t have it all wrong, they just don’t understand what they are doing, that the need for sacrifices are over.”


Well, I am one of “they,” and I must disagree. We do know what we’re doing, which is following what G-d told our ancestors to do over 3,000 years ago. G-d also told us not to add or take away anything from the Torah. In Deuteronomy 13:1, He states: “This entire thing which I command you (the Torah), it shall you guard to keep it, do not add on it, and do not detract from it.”

With respect to your beliefs, even your own scripture says that “not one jot or tittle of the Law” (i.e. the Torah, the 5 Books of Moses) shall be changed until it’s whole purpose shall have been accomplished. Matthew 5:18. Yet...early Christians changed the Sabbath, eliminated other Holy days and dispensed with the dietary laws, all of which Jesus himself observed.

So WHO doesn’t understand what they’re doing?

Oh, and FYI, there are currently no sacrifices because there is no Holy Temple. Once the Messiah comes, it will be rebuilt and the sacrifices restored. Until that time, we Jews offer a permissible sacrifice by praying 3 times daily.

Blood on the lamps, shaking the matzah, wondering how Joseph (which one?) fits into the laws of the sabbath, that was a HILARIOUS article.

Christ was the lamb of God who took away the sins of the world.

That is what Passover is a illustration of.

The changes from the Law was because it was fulfilled and in this period of time, (since the Cross) when a person believes in Christ as their personal savior they cease to be either Jew or Gentile, but become one in Christ-Christian.

So, no you don't understand what you are doing, you have rejected your own messiah and returned to the Law which cannot save you!

I would advise you to read the book of Hebrews which was written by Paul to the Jews to explain to them these things.

But God isn't done with the Jews People as a People, since there were unconditional promises made to Abraham (land) and David (ruler) which God will fulfill in the future when He sets up His Millennial Kingdom.

Then all Israel will be saved under the New Covenant (Jer.31, Heb.8)

But right now, without faith in Christ as your personal savior, you are lost and on the way to hell.

Your laws and traditions can't save you, only the Blood of the Lamb can do that.

Maybe Kasich meant the Lamp of Gd.

If there are unfulfilled promises, if there is war and starvation and disease, if there is hatred, lying, stealing and adultery, then the purpose of the Bible has not been fulfilled. As such, we Jews still wait for the Messiah.

The false premises re the Messiah could fill the abyss. The religious establishments and their followers are going to reject him, but $18 on the Jews for ultimate recognition. Kind of too serious a subject to say "pass the popcorn" but... on the shopping list it goes.

No kidding!

See: Did PAUL Invented CHRISTIANITY?
Rabbi Michael Skobac

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gWfOd-6pTNI

Don't miss from 50:00 min. on, Yaakov (James), Yeshua's brother

Yaakov (James) 1, 8 he is a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways. (Paul)

The Rabbi makes a note that Paul never met Yesuha, he (Paul) claims to have met him (in a vision) but I need another witness.

And here's a fact: Nowhere in scripture does it instruct to worship the Messiah, nowhere...

Rev. 22, 9
אלהִים worship

And: Revelation 2:7
