Was Christianity the vehicle by which Jewish messianism was spread throughout the world, albeit in a much different form? And what was the impact of these views on Jewish messianism as it developed subsequently, especially during times of persecution, as in the Middle Ages and the early modern period? The Dead Sea Scrolls represent a turning point in Jewish history. They challenge us with intriguing questions about the nature and development of Judaism during a period of turmoil. Swept by waves of foreign cultures and armies, influenced by new ideas, Jews struggled to find stability and continuity. Following the destruction of the Temple and the development of Christianity, directions and distinctions became clearer. One path led towards normative Judaism, the other towards a very different world view. (The Jerusalem Post) Post Reply

(Prophetic free thread) Posted : 29 Dec, 2019 02:40 PM Christianity did not abandon Jewish ethics and morality, but turned toward the primacy of belief in a messianic figure, Jesus, rather than the life-structure embodied in the written and oral Torah. Christianity’s emphasis on messianism could not have evolved directly out of Judaism. It required a middleman, the Essenes, who provided a transitional intellectual development which freed it theologically; made it specific, and shifted the focus from the particular (the practice of Judaism) to the universal. By opening its new religion to anyone and everyone without conditions or restrictions, Christianity offered the widest possible appeal. There were few obligations and few clear notions of sin, what was permitted, or prohibited, and even when these were violated, absolution was readily available. The focus was Jesus.....

(Prophetic free thread) Posted : 29 Dec, 2019 03:18 PM Chuckles: All born from above Christians believe that Jesus is God and that His blood is the only thing that forgives sins and that every word in Paul's Epistles are the inspired words of God which you deny. Actually Christians are the Jews best friends; so why would you want to make fun of all their Christian beliefs?? Chuckles comes to a Christian Forum teaching about 95 percent of what Orthodox Jews believe since he believes we are saved by doing good works and obeying OT laws. If anyone disagrees with his teaching Chuckles claims they are a racist ant-Semite, and an unrepenting **LIAR** who misuses and wrongly translates Scripture. He also hogs about 66.6 Percent of the new threads. Actually he is a terrible theologian and is only good at taking one out of context Scripture to prove his teachings. The only other thing Chuckles is good at is calling everyone who disagrees with his Satanic teachings, terrible names. Jesus is called **LORD** over 200 times in the New Covenant of Faith and Love. However the name lord does not always mean God since Jesus is called Lord of lords as per Revelation 17:14 below. However, Jesus is also called God **SEVEN TIMES** in the New Testament and Chuckles like Satan teaches that Jesus is a lord but is not God. Revelation 17:14: They will make war against the **LAMB** but the Lamb will overcome them because He is **LORD** of lords and **KING** of kings and with Him will be His **CALLED** **CHOSEN** and **FAITHFUL** followers! Chuckles does not believe Jesus is God and believes the following Scripture is not inspired by God. Chuckles must also believe that the Gospel of John is not inspired by God since Jesus is called God **FOUR** times in the Gospel of John. Isaiah 9:6: For unto us a Child is born, to us a Son is given, and the government will be on His shoulders. And He will be called Wonderful Counselor and **MIGHTY GOD**! John 1:1-3,18: In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with Go, and the **WORD WAS GOD**. He was with God in the beginning. Through Him all things were made; without Him nothing was made that as been made... No one has ever seen God, but the One and only Son, who is **HIMSELF GOD** and is in closest relationship with the Father, has made Him known! John 20:27-29: Jesus said to the doubting Thomas, "Put your finger here in My hands. Reach out your hand and put it into My side. Stop doubting and believe!" Thomas said to Him, My Lord and **MY GOD**!" Then Jesus told him, Because you have seen Me, you have believed, blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed!" {And so since Chuckles does not believe he is not blessed by Jesus!!} Hebrews 1:6,8: When God brings His firstborn into the world He says, "Let all God's angels **WORSHIP HIM**.... About the Son He says, "Your throne, **O GOD**, will last for ever and ever, a scepter of justice will be the scepter of **YOUR KINGDOM**!" Titus 2:13,14: We wait for the **BLESSED HOPE**--the glorious appearing of our **GREAT GOD AND SAVIOR**, Jesus Christ, who gave Himself for us to redeem us from all wickedness and to purify a people that are **HIS VERY OWN**, eager to do what is good!! So Satan's followers all deceptively only say Jesus is lord but will never admit that Jesus is God like Chuckles. Post Reply
