Quoting: Curious George IV 13910414 You are asking the wrong people. Jesus, per his own saying, was only sent to the HOUSE OF ISRAEL. So, you should be asking Jews. Well, maybe not the Jews of today, who will tell you all kinds of nasty things about Jesus. But, in essence, Jesus came as THE LAST JEWISH PROPHET sent from God - it was, more or less, the LAST chance for Jews to be saved. Yet they rejected him. And he did not come with anything new - he came, as he said, "not to abolish the Law, but to fulfill it". The basic and most simple message he brought was the old one, already known to the Jews: "Hear oh Israel, the Lord our God is One". |

Ah, but you see, my dear jewish brother, therein lies the problem: You are two extreme opposites of each other. The christians elevated Jesus to Godhood. The jews rejected him completely. As usual, the truth lies somewhere in between: That he was a man, not God, but a Prophet sent from God. He did not teach any of the absurd things you find in the NT, which are basically sayings of anonymous authors, but tracing it back, doing to the "Q" source, one can try to find bits of what he taught - and that is basically in concordance with what all the other prophets taught. This is the path I follow. |

Granting Health and Long Living to mankind with the Eucharist. The power within his Flesh and his Blood was brought forth in the Bread and the Wine for you to partake in it.

Quoting: furPete'sSake Your house was left to you desolate and the Gentiles grafted in. Any paganism comes from the Roman Catholic church which is really only Esau gussied up. Ahm, no, you are oversimplifying things. It's not just catholic church that did that. The whole "paganisation" started with Saul of Tarsus, better known as Paul, who was AT ODDS with the real disciples of Jesus, who were real monotheistic believers. Even in the writings we have today, one can see remnants of these problems that existed between Paul and the other disciples. It was Paul who as the first one came up with the whole idea of Jesus being "something more" than just a man. And it was him who first came up with the idea of Jesus being a "salvation" for mankind and a "lamb" etc. Derived from this, since ALL the NT evangelists wrote AFTER Paul, come the stories in the 4 gospels which were actually an apologetic work to try and fit the "paulian Jesus" into their scripture. One can even see the progression in the Gospels, with Mark as the earliest gospel, having Jesus still very much as a "man", up to John, almost half a century later, having elevated Jesus to Godhood. Only a BLIND and IGNORANT person does not want to SEE this obvious progression. Here is an article I wrote specifically on Paul and these issues: Paulianism: How Saul of Tarsus hijacked Christianity: [link to islamise.me] |

Accept him as the Son of God and that you are nothing without him. You cannot save yourself yourself you cannot save yourself by being good though it's commendable you can only get to Heaven by believing in the Son of God. And if you don't acknowledge him or your sins he won't acknowledge you when the time comes. It's pretty simple. It's not rocket science. Then ask him to forgive you and try your damndest to be a decent person instead of a twat |

We rebelled and broke His law. 3, God showed us what He loves. To teach us love, He took our penalty for us. Mercy and Love were His greatest lessons. 4, If we admit that we deserve His penalty and then choose His love then we won't suffer the penalty. Lessons learned. 5, We can then learn to love others as He loved us. Forgiving one another when they break our standards. (The penalty, just like in society. There are those who don't want to learn and become useless and end up in prison.) |
