    Who Or What Is Israel?

    Whether Gentile or Jewish, you apparently have to keep going back. According to the Torah, that does not put you nor your "shepherds" (Ez 34), in a good light. You seem to be sharing space with the Gentiles and their "plagues" (Rev 18:4). As for "doctors" being qualified, keep in mind that the...

    Who Or What Is Israel?

    Yeah, that works when you forget about all the prophets and the Law. Ezekiel 36 & 37 have Ephraim and Judah separated until they are both gathered out of the nations/Gentiles, united, and put back on the land given to Jacob under the leadership of king David. Judah hasn't been back on the land...

    Who Or What Is Israel?

    Well, China did a one child only experiment, and they are now predicted to die out as an economy within this century. A Japanese study says their actual population is now in the 900,000 range, not 1.4 billion. The poor country of India has surpassed their population. The U.S. birth rate is...

    Who Or What Is Israel?

    I have fallen many times, but the reason was for not paying attention to where I was going. As for "repent", that means to change one's way, which is to say, not sin again. If one is "righteous" and sins, commits wickedness/lawlessness, his righteousness will be forgotten, and he will die...

    Who Or What Is Israel?

    Saying you keep the Commandments and the covenants, and keeping them is not the same. Most Christians claim to keep the Commandments, but then again, do they? Or do they keep the commandments of the Beast with two horns like a lamb, the emperor Constantine, and his Trinity dogma of having 3...

    Who Or What Is Israel?

    Says you and the "scribes" (Jeremiah 8:8). The judges of old were all anointed, and the Levites remain unsanctified (Malachi 3:3). And apparently, you choose which Levites to follow, and which to discard.

    Who Or What Is Israel?

    You are referring to the false prophet Paul with respect to Gal 4:25. That would be the message of the "enemy"/"devil" per Matthew 13, which is the tare seed, in which the tares are looking towards their eradication per Matthew 13:30 at the "end of the age", which we are now in. Mt 21 is...

    Who Or What Is Israel?

    I thought the question was why do "Christians" get sick and die, which is the same reason Jews get sick and die. They do not keep the Commandments, and therefore are under a curse. (Deut 28:15-16). Ephraim/Israel is "scattered among the nations"/Gentiles and come under the "statutes"...

    Who Or What Is Israel?

    The rulers, such as Caesar/Czar/Kaiser/emperor, are labeled as "beasts", or heads of beasts, are addressed in Revelation 13:4, as rulers whose authority comes from the "dragon"/"devil" (Rev 20:2). You not having that insight that these "beasts"/"kings", such as Caesar, and Alexander the Great...

    Who Or What Is Israel?

    Deut 17:8-13 does not mention "Rabbis", nor "scribes", which is mentioned in Jeremiah 8:8, and Dt 17 is with regard to courts with regard to bloodshed, lawsuits or assaults. If your profession is as a dishwasher, then don't wash dishes on the Sabbath. If your profession is as a writer, simply...

    Who Or What Is Israel?

    I am saying that according to the LORD, he does not listen to the prayers of sinners. He does listen to the prayers of the righteous, such as in the case of Elijah. Apart from that, you are on your own. You can make war on your own terms with depression and disease, for your "shepherds"...

    Who Or What Is Israel?

    Their downfall is with respect to their "Oral Torah", which of course you have already rejected, and is best defined as the Talmud, of which there is not just one version, and is the writing of the scribes, which makes the law a lie per Jeremiah 8:8. If you want to become "perfect" according to...

    Who Or What Is Israel?

    Now you are sounding like a Pauline Christian, who freely nail the Law to a cross, and fall back on the Golden Rule, which is a founding element of many religions, including Buddhism, and Confucius. Your feminism, equal rights, patriarchal viewpoint, are all in line with the California version...

    Who Or What Is Israel?

    Your Talmud, the writings of the scribes, which makes a lie out of the law, as stated in Jeremiah 8:8, is not something to build your house on. Whether you belong to a Conservative, Orthodox, Reform, Pharisee, Sadducee, Essene, or Zealot sect of Judaism makes little difference to me. If you...

    Who Or What Is Israel?

    I am not telling you how to live. I am just quoting Scripture on how to live a healthy life. If you choose women's lib over supposed Jewish restrictions on women, well, that is your chose. Putting your right shoe on first sounds like the lies provided by the Scribes (Jer 8:8), which would be...

    Who Or What Is Israel?

    There is no prohibition from seeking a Gentile doctor, except that if you kept the law, according to the Word of God, you wouldn't need a doctor. And there is no requirement for you to violate the commandments, other than possibly from the writings of the "scribes", which make a lie out of the...

    Who Or What Is Israel?

    An orthodox Jew doesn't get carte blanche. If they don't turn from "wickedness", well according to Ezekiel 18:24, they will die. As for the Levites, they will have to go through a refining fire (Malachi 3:3). Ezekiel 18:24 But when a righteous person turns from his righteousness and acts...

    Who Or What Is Israel?

    There is no Arab country that would take Hamas, or even the Gazans. Egypt is reinforcing their fence between Egypt and Gaza. The "Brotherhood" is highly tied to Hamas, and no Muslim country wants them. As for your bias against the Israeli leadership, well, nothing you support seems to have...

    Who Or What Is Israel?

    The rent was the equivalent price of 30 shekels of silver, the price paid for the "adulteress" (Gentiles) of Hosea 3, who would only stay for a short time, whereas, then Israel would return to the LORD and "David their king" (Hosea 3). Your false gospel of Paul, the "tare seed", the "message"...

    Who Or What Is Israel?

    It is apparent that the only information you get is from rags such as the NY Times. Good luck with that. The relevance was that the NY Times got their talking points from "Twitter".
