Zone1 Why are there so many Old Testament Christians?

[Woodznutz]

Isn't 'Old Testament' and 'Christian' a contradiction in terms?

 

[irosie91]

Maybe for Jews, not for Christians.

Good point----the book was used to justify the Inquisition which was actually legalized by "laws" enacted by Constantine and
codified by Justin. The Justinian code inspired SHARIAH and
the Justinian code inspired the Nuremburg laws enacted by the
catholic "emperor" Adolf. Together, these three systems resulted in multiple genocides and the deaths of tens---even hundreds of millions and counting

Every Christian I know, about 3 family members and twice that many lifelong friends fully and enthusiastically support the genocide by Israel. Many other people would prefer not to talk about it, but those willing to talk about it, church goers, truly believe the Jews (Israelites) are God's Chosen People and superior to themselves. They openly admit (those willing to talk about it) the believe that because the Bible tells them so, the Old Testament.

You have the understanding of this issue that's typical of people who consume nothing but left-wing and anti-Semitic media. In that regard, you're on the same intellectual level as the Hamas troglodytes who rape and murder women and children.

That was Christianity-in-name-only. True Christians are pretty peaceable folks. Even the early church was filled with imposters.

"FILLED"? even the Popes?

Especially the Popes. Many believe the "little horn" of Daniel 8 represents the papacy.

oh---that explains history

 

[Woodznutz]

"FILLED"? even the Popes?

Filled to the point where the true believers were cast out of some of the churches by the unbelievers who took over the place.

Au contrare, I was CHOSEN by God for my specific cult.

The Jew in question is Jesus. He did not consider his countrymen chosen.

How do you know?

 

[ding]

They are but they are currently on God's sh-t list.

All of them?

 

[Woodznutz]

All of them?

The messianic Jews are under grace now.

Aren't Palestinians Semites? Aren't the Ashkenazi Jews non-semites? When the Zionists kill off the Palestinians, isn't that the ultimate act of being anti-semitic?

 

[PeterPilot]

Isn't 'Old Testament' and 'Christian' a contradiction in terms?

It seems to me that logic demands that.

 

[Woodznutz]

And the rest?

It would be a worthwhile study.

Be careful not to include Nazi propaganda with your views of the historical and factual record. Einstein did not support Jewish statehood because of the inevitable tensions he knew would occur between the Arabs and the Jews. But neither did he actively oppose that state once it became a reality. And as for his views of the Zionists, he funded many of their causes. He certainly did not see them as "Nazi-like."

67 years after his death, Albert Einstein’s true relationship to Judaism — and Zionism - St. Louis Jewish Light

Is any name more synonymous with Jewish genius than Albert Einstein? By speaking out against anti-Semitism and lending his brand to institutions like the Albert Einstein College of Medicine, Einstein became a standard-bearer for the Diaspora. As a prominent booster of The Hebrew University of...

And as do many Christians, even many of non-Jewish heritage--Einstein who was of Jewish heritage, albeit a secular one, felt a deep kinship with the Jewish people. And that too is why the Old Testament manuscripts are embraced by many Christians as well as unorthodox Jewish people.

No,G-d still condemns all of that. Jesus never canceled the Law. He wrote it.

God might condemn it, but Zionists, both Jewish and Christian, fully support it. Onward Christian Soldiers, ya know...?

Semite and antisemite are false and confusing terms, literally meaning descendants of Shem.
