I didn't know you had three bullethole scars - glad you didn't die</blockquote> My reply there: <blockquote>I don't want to over state the bullet holes. I didn't put it in context, but it's a private matter to some degree. I was just put off by the repeated pattern I described. I have friended people who aren't Christians solely for the purpose of networking with people about what's wrong and what should be done. I just updated that post of mine saying: "Also, pardon me for expecting that people will have overviewed the profiles of others on Facebook before accepting them as friends. My profile says "Christian" all over it." Anyway, thanks Gloria for being understanding. I think because I'm so outspoken about Christianity that they get some sick pleasure in either deliberately trying to offend or being very careless about sensibilities. I'm not overly thin-skinned, but I care about people who haven't been subjected to pollution. I'm glad you haven't been subjected to such come-ons. You shouldn't have to be, even if you get way out there in front on Christian issues. I suspect that there are plenty of women who have been confronted by people putting garbage in front of them in an attempt to cause them to stumble. Well, I feel I caught this person off guard in that he was operating more in subconscious mode than it appeared he might have been from his repeated recommendations. Regardless, if he isn't more careful from this point forward, shame on him. Peace to you, Gloria. I hope your studies are going well. Always glad to have your moral support.

I was familiar with these things. "Jewish Christian" is used for the sake of beginning common dialogue with those who are not aware of various distinctions. As for your point and if we are going to be completely precise, there is no Judaism. There is only belief in the universal God. If I move back from speaking at that level of language, then I may say that Christianity is the only real religion of Jacob, who is alive with Jesus. Even at that, many will not grasp. The prophecy did not end with the Torah. The Torah observances were cut off by God. Animal sacrifices came to stink. This is not to say that I don't appreciate having an understanding of the religious observances laid out in the Torah. To understand many of the points of Jesus, one needs that continuity of language. However, those observances are no longer required as in the days of Moses. I am not required by God to live according to the ritual observances and other "laws" laid down by Moses. Peace, Tom Usher Anders Branderud,

Courtesy.

Judaism and Christianity have always been two antithetical religions, and thus the term “Jewish Christians” is an oxymoron.
