WILL TRUTH SET THE JEW FREE?
COMMENTARY BY SID ROTH;
There are three major reasons why some Jewish people don't investigate the claims that Jesus is the Messiah. First, the mot anti-Semitic people,historically, have called themselves Christians. By definition, the name "Christian" means follower of the Messiah. Any person who is prejudiced and violent is the farthest thing from being a follower of the Messiah. These "Christians" may have worn large crosses and attended church, but their actions proved they were not followers of the Messiah,Prince of Peace.
Second,we Jews believe in one God. Believers in the Messiah also believe in one God. But God's essence is infinite,beyond complete comprehension. The rabbis even called Him the Eyn Sof-the One without End. From the scriptures, we understand that our God can manifest Himself in more than one way. There is much evidence of this in the Torah. Did you ever wonder who was with God when He made man?-" Let us make man in our image,after our likeness." (Gen,1:26). Why must the One true God be as limited as man?
Incidentally, I don't pray to the Messiah. My forefathers prayed to God through the Jewish high priest.My High Priest is Jesus. One of the reasons the Jewish people don't seek after Jesus is because the rabbis tell them they will no longer be Jewish. But if Jesus is the Messiah than there is nothing more Jewish than believing in Him! So who is Jesus? The Messiah had to be born in Bethleham according to scripture.In fact,all rabbis worldwide could save themselves a lot of trouble if they understood why Rabbi Yochanon Ben Zakkai,the architect modern-day rabbinic Judaism didn't know whether he personally would go to Heaven or Hell. A rabbi asked " If a blind man follows another blind man,won't they both fall into a ditch?"
Is there life after death? what do the Jewish scriptures tell us; Daniel12:1-2,says " At that time shall thy people be delivered, everyone that is written in the book of life "Is your name in the book of life? Think for yourself.

FROM YESTER-YEAR TO TODAY
READING DUET.7;
We are a chosen people and the Lord is keeping His oath that he swore to our forefathers. Know therefore that the Lord our God is faithful, He who keeps covenant and love to those who love Him and keep His laws and commandments; to a thousand generations! He will not be slack to repay the ones who hate Him .
( Job34:11) "For according to the work of a man He will repay him..."and because we keep His commandments He will keep us with His steadfast love and we shall be blessed above all people.And He will take away all our sickness and none of the evil diseases will he inflict on you. 2Pet.3:9, " the Lord is not slow to fulfill His promises as some count slowness but is patient towards you(us) with His steadfast love, not wishing that any should perish, but that all should reach repentance."AMEN!
Duet.8:3...." That He might make you to know that man does not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God." Fear God and walk in His ways,and bless Him for all the good He has given you. And take care lest we forget the Lord our God by not keeping His commandments. Be careful to not let gold and silver,houses and land, or the things of this world be lifted up in your heart and we soon forget the Lord our God. Be careful not to say that by the power of your hand has brought you all these things, for surely you shall perish for not obeying the voice of the Lord.
I ask myself is this what our government has done? Are we turning blind and deaf to the laws of the land[Constitution] I'm not speaking of religion but the commandments of God included in our constitution.We reap what we sow,and is our government rebelling against those inalienable rights.We see the the perversion and destruction of our constitution and the government by the people is now people for the government! What next shall we see as the evil world arms itself with nuclear power, possibly one world government to keep the free enslaved to the powers that be? Possibly so and we might see the destruction of the world by fire(nuclear) yes evil might reign for awhile? God only knows but he has shone us away of escape through His mercy and grace; [Rom.12:2] "be not conformed to this world: but by the renewing of your mind."
READ THE WORD!
HE WHO CAN HEAR....IN HIS LOVE,tom
