Hi Mike:
They ceased to be jewish when they started worshipping jesus.
Nobody ceases from being "Jewish" (a son of Jacob), so stop being foolish.
It's amazing how someone who clearly isn't jewish is telling someone who is jewish what makes up a jew. If a jew worships any other G-D than the one that they know, then that person is no longer recognized as a jew.
A jew who worships jesus is no longer a jew.
Christ is the Lord God of the OT and the same Bible Principal that Mike calls "G-d," but he has yet to add 2 + 2 to get 4 . . .
In Judaism G-D doesn't allow for the adding of false gods. There is only G-D. There is only one BIG 1. This is all your christian inventions. It absolutely has nothing to do with judaism or the actual G-D.
Based on judaism they committed a very grave sin for forsaking G-D and worshipping a false one.
No. That is Mike's 'interpretation' of God's Living Word that is definitely dead wrong. The
'spirit of stupor' (
Rom. 11:8) is very strong indeed . . .
Devarim (Deuteronomy) 13:1-2
"Everything I command you that you shall be careful to do it. You shall neither add to it, nor subtract from it. If there arise among you a prophet, or a dreamer, and he gives you a sign or a miracle. And the sign or miracle comes to pass, and he calls on you, saying, Let us go after other gods, whom you have not known, and let us worship them. You shall not listen to that prophet or dreamer. For G-d is testing you, to see whether you love the L-rd your G-d with all your heart and with all your soul"
It seems that jews didn't fail the test. Unfortunately, some still don't realize that there is only one G-D. The whole worship jesus thing is a christian invention that is contrary to G-D.
Jews are not supposed to nor allowed to obey the "gospel of the kindom".
Again, Israel failed to recognize John the Baptist (
Matt. 17:12) as Abraham/David/Elijah (your father Adam) 'and' Israel also failed to recognize Jesus Christ as the
"Lord God" who formed His
"son of God" (
Luke 3:38) and the Garden in
Genesis 2:7+8. You do NOT recognize Jesus Christ as the
"Lord" coming to
His Temple (
Malachi 3:1) and would rather worship a 'G-d' of your own invention . .
Devarim (Deuteronomy) 11:16-17
Be careful lest your heart is seduced, that you turn away and serve other gods and that you bow down to them. And then the L-rds anger will burn against you and He will shut up the heavens and there will be no rain and the land will not yield its produce. You will be quickly cut off from the good land that the L-rd is giving to you.
According to judaism there is no difference between you bowing down to worship jesus, and you bowing down to worship a golden calf. It's the same thing. Both are false gods, and G-D said not to do it.
They are supposed to do what G-D told them to do in the Torah. G-D also commanded the jews not to add nor subtract from what he did told them to do in the Torah.
Please forgive, but Mike does not even recognize the
'son of man/god' (John The Baptist/David/Adam) nor the
'Son of Man/God' in our Lord Jesus Christ; who just happens to be
Adam (coming 'prophet') and the Lord God from Genesis 2+ who formed him.
Let's see we have what G-D said, and then we have what those who try to seduce jews from following what G-D said. It's not a hard choice for jews. For others well...
Just a little reminder...
:
Shemot (Exodus) 20:2-3
"I am the L-rd thy God, who brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage. Thou shalt have no other gods before Me" ("You shall not recognize the gods of others in My presense").
Shemot (Exodus) 20:18
"One who brings offerings to the gods shall be destroyed - only to Hashem alone!"
Bamidbar (Numbers) 23:19
G-d is not a man that He should lie, nor a son of man, that He should relent.
Devarim (Deuteronomy) 4:15
Take good heed of yourselves, for you saw no manner of form on that day when G-d spoke to you at Horeb...
Devarim (Deuteronomy) 4:35
Unto you it was shown, that you might know, that the L-rd is G-d, there is none else besides Him.
Devarim (Deuteronomy) 4:39
Know this day, and lay it in your heart, that the L-rd is G-d, in the heavens above and on the earth below, there is none else.
Devarim (Deuteronomy) 6:4
"Hear, O Israel: The L-rd is our G-d, the L-rd is One".
No, in G-D.
