What does the Talmud say about gentiles?
The Talmud is the “oral interpretation” of the Torah, that’s been passed down by rabbis for generations.
The Talmud is taught in over 200 schools in Israel.
There's no such thing as "judeo-Christian" values, it's an oxymoron.

@Bug48M@LostMyHats Ok, follow me here, I'll speak slowly & not use any big words:
A quote can also be insulting to Christ.
And, the person stating the quote can, by using the insulting quote, also be insulting Christ themselves.
A quote does not insulate a person from the errors of the quote.
When word began to get out about a devilishly new doctrine coming out of Plymouth, England, having originated by a bizarre End Times cult originally from Ireland, the entire Christian faith - every church tradition and denomination in existence - all rejected it as vulgar and profane for one primary reason: it was novel.
Protestants and Catholics alike looked at the claims from the Plymouth Brethren - a Sectarian Minimalist cult that rejected all church structure and authority - and stood aghast that something so far outside the bounds of historic orthodoxy could be believed as legitimate.
The discernment rule, “that which is new is never true, that which is true is never new,” had been understood as Biblical wisdom for centuries. God does not invent new doctrines. Only Satan does that.
Sure, there were disparate views on eschatology. There was premillennialism, amillennialism, and postmillennialism by this point in Christian history, different ways of viewing the eschaton and different interpretations of End Times events. But they ebbed and flowed in popularity, but every one held in place the benchmarks of orthodoxy.
Dispensationalism was another beast entirely, a completely new approach to understanding God’s Covenants, a thoroughly Jewish way of interpreting the Bible. Its deviation from historic teaching was that Jews, by virtue of their ethnicity, retain a Covenant with God and have inheritance of its blessings and promises, irrespective of their rejection of Christ.
Instead of the “grand reveal” of the New Testament, the “mystery of the gospel” as Paul calls it, that Jesus came FROM the Jews but FOR the whole world, that Jesus was a global messiah and not just some tribal savior, Dispensationalism adopts the Jewish worldview with Israel as the center of the Universe, instead of Christ.
The new doctrinal perversion makes the Christian Church - the very Bride of Christ - into a parenthetical fling with whom Jesus has an affair while he awaits His harlot wife to come to her senses. That’s what Darby called the church - parenthetical:
“The Church has sought to settle itself here, but it has no place on the earth… though making a most constructive parenthesis, it forms no part of the regular order of God’s earthly plans, but is merely an interruption of them to give a fuller character and meaning to [the Jews]” (J.N. Darby, “The Character of Office in The Present Dispensation,” Collected Writings, Ecclesiastical I, Vol. 1, p. 94).
Dispensationalism treats Christians as the after-thought, and it differs from Historic Premillennialism by agreeing with the tenets of Jewish Supremacy, which the Bible’s authors tried so hard to beat out of them. The Apostles taught that only those who believe in Jesus are the REAL children of Abraham and inherit all of Abraham’s promises (Galatians 3:27), and that Jews who deny Jesus are not really children of Abraham at all (Romans 9:6). The Apostles taught that Jews who deny Jesus are utterly cut off from Abraham and from God and replaced by believing Gentiles (Romans 11:17), and the only way to be grafted back in is by faith, the same as any other person (Romans 11:23).
Dispensationalism rejects these Apostolic teachings and insist on a Jew-centered Universe where God continues to pour blessings and promises upon the Jews by virtue, not of Christ’s shed blood and their faith in Him, but in theirs. And from this deviant doctrine, they even insist that Gentile Christians owe something to Jews and have to help them rebuild the very kingdom that God Himself destroyed because of their unbelief.
The entire Christian church around the world all agreed - this was an utterly new claim.
When asked about Darby’s doctrines, the “Prince of Preachers,” Charles Spurgeon, said, “We hold to no new views concerning the future, and we have no desire for any.”
Dispensationalists are peddling you the theological equivalent of a fidget spinner and telling you it’s historic.
You cannot claim that you’re aborting your Down syndrome child because you don’t want him to “suffer.” First of all, killing a child so they don’t suffer is psychopath serial killer logic. You’re on the same moral plane as Andrea Yates. Second, children with Down syndrome are famously some of the happiest people you’ll ever meet in your life. They are not in fact living in a state of perpetual torment. So what’s really happening is that you’re killing your child so that YOU won’t suffer the inconvenience of caring for him. This is about freeing yourself of your own perceived suffering. If you’re going to be a child killing sociopath, at least be honest about it.
I never thought I would see Ligonier dish up TGC style repackaging of worldly zeitgeist.
It took about 6-8 years for TGC to become totally irrelevant. The very few serviceable things they produce are easily found elsewhere. Ligonier's fall to irrelevancy will be a lot quicker b/c even soccer moms are on to this stuff now.
Singleness can be a gift that the Lord uses for your good and His glory.
Watch as Rebecca VanDoodewaard encourages single women to be fruitful with the time God has given them.

This is an interesting study in female “word casting”.
This woman’s tone and delivery are perfect. She’s also fluent in Christianese, where “gift from God” is the good-good word and “idol” is the bad-bad word.
In this moment, said woman feels good about young women pursuing careers, bad about young women waiting for marriage.
Therefore marriage (a literal sacramental gift from God) is an idol, and pursuing materialism in the marketplace (a literal idol) is a gift from God.
White is black and black is white, because this women’s isn’t communicating theology, she is communicating how she feels.
Watching this video makes my jaw clench.
Not because I see courage. Not because I see progress. It makes my jaw clench because I see a husband standing outside a women’s restroom while his wife is inside, and another person is demanding that he ignore what his own eyes can see.
Put Democrat politics aside for a moment and think about the people you love. Imagine your wife is in that restroom. Imagine it’s your daughter, your granddaughter, your mother, or your sister. Most husbands like us, aren’t going to start debating social theories at that moment. Their first instinct is going to be the same instinct men have had for thousands of years: protect the women they love.
That isn’t hatred. It isn’t fear. It’s responsibility.
What makes this video so powerful is that it exposes a much bigger disagreement taking place across the country. One side believes that biological reality determines who belongs in male and female spaces. The other believes that personal identity should be the deciding factor. Those are fundamentally different starting points, and that’s why these encounters keep happening.
The anger you’re seeing isn’t really about a restroom. It’s about whether ordinary people are still allowed to trust their own judgment, speak honestly about what they see, and protect the people they care about without being told they’re the problem.
Millions of Americans like me, have reached the point where they are exhausted by being told that common sense is offensive. They are tired of being told that protecting women is somehow controversial. They are tired of being pressured to deny what they believe is objectively true in order to avoid criticism.
That’s why videos like this resonate with so many people. They aren’t seeing a debate about a bathroom. They’re seeing a husband doing what husbands have always done: standing watch over the people entrusted to his care.
And for many Americans, the line gets drawn right there.
Not with my wife.
Not with my daughter.
Not with my family.

First, His name is Ἰησοῦς (Matthew 1:21). Hebrew was dead for more than a half-millennia by His birth, and like Mary, his brother, James, and half His disciples, his name is Greek. It’s the language of the Septuagint He quoted 40 times- always in Greek, never Hebrew. Not once.
Second, the return of Jesus does not require the existence of a Jewish ethnostate that quite literally rejects Him in its national charter, bans Jews who believe in Him from migrating there under the Law of Return, and 99% of whom are taught He’s born of a whore and burning in hell in a pile of excrement for sorcery. His return doesn’t require a people who’d crucify Him a second time in the streets in they had half a chance.
Third, the church that existed after God’s destruction of the Jewish temple - and with it, the Jewish nation - in 70AD believed in the imminent return of Christ. You’ll not find a single Christian prior to the invention of Dispensationalism in 1821 argue that Jesus couldn’t return until the people who crucified Him formed a body-politic in Palestine first. Not one. Revelation was written well after 70AD and taught the return was imminent. “Maranatha, come quickly, Lord Jesus” is literally how the Book ends.
Fourth, let’s stop pretending that a bunch of Eastern Europeans who mass migrated to Palestine, had to invent a new “Hebrew” language that’s more European than actual Hebrew, picked Hebrew-sounding names out of thin air so they sounded local, and who are ethnically Polish, Ukrainian, Russian, and Slavic constitute a “return” of some kind.
If you’re insisting on the Dispensational framework, invented in the 19th century, then that same interpretive framework also requires the death of 2/3 of Israel first (Zechariah 13:8-9). Do you want that to be accomplished also? If we’re marking off things that have to happen for John Darby’s End Times chart, let’s go ahead and take back our Iron Dome and our military support to cross that one off the list while we’re at it. What do you say?
@HunterBiden Even a crack head gets it right sometimes. And, I genuinely hope and pray you are getting better. Now, get right with God and straighten out your life and politics. DM me if you want to know how.
This article is URGENT and has HUGELY important info.
Israel-First influencers are quick to tell you that the 3.8 billion in annual military aid to Israel is set to sunset. What they are NOT telling you is that in two days, Congress is set to GIVE the future U.S. military to Israel. They're going to get WAY MORE than 3.8 billion dollars. They're being given the keys, and what they'll get out of it is worth more than every jet, tank, carrier, and warship COMBINED.
AIPAC assets in Congress have snuck Section 224 into the National Defense Authorization Act to be voted on Thursday. It's titled the "United States-Israel Defense Technology Cooperation Initiative.” And what it will do is give Israel full ownership and access into U.S. military research, development, and production of 6 emerging war technologies:
1. Artificial intelligence and autonomous systems
2. Quantum computing
3. Cybersecurity and full data network integration
4. Directed energy weapons
5. Counter-unmanned systems
6. Biotechnology
These are not legacy weapons. These are all MORE valuable than aircraft carrier strike groups. These are the six domains that every serious defense analyst alive agrees will determine who wins the next major war. The F-35s are already depreciating. The drone swarms over Iran just proved it. What Section 224 transfers is the inheritance - the technology that replaces everything we have now - co-developed with a foreign government from the research stage forward, meaning Israel gets inside the architecture before a single weapon is ever deployed.
When your AI targeting system is jointly built with Israel, Israel understands its vulnerabilities before it fires. When your cyber defense network is fused with Israeli intelligence infrastructure by statute, that access doesn't disappear if the relationship ever sours. It's baked into the hardware.
And once Israeli co-production plants are running in congressional districts across the country, opposing Israeli foreign policy becomes functionally identical to opposing American military readiness. That's the point. That's the trap.
Thomas Massie promised to strip it from the bill on the floor. He wrote three words: "We are a sovereign country." AIPAC immediately called him an "antisemite" and spent $32 million removing him before he could cast the vote.
Congress has heard the will of the American people, who do NOT want to keep funding Israel's genocide of Gaza and their religious wars of conquest. It responded by just giving away America's future military infrastructure and planting Israel's war industry in your congressional district to force your congressman to answer to Tel Aviv.
A few months ago, Bill Mitchell tweeted, "I don't understand the anti-Israel forces. Do they think by complaining about Israel 24/7 on X, they are going to change US policy towards Israel? Republican or Democrat president, America will NEVER abandon Israel."
I said at the time that informing Americans that we aren't in political control of whether or not we support Israel or how much money we give them is how pogroms happen. Sadly, maybe he's right. We said no more funding. The U.S. Congress is trying to give them our entire military's future on a silver platter.

The Native people of the UK deserve to have their homeland back. We must respect indigenous culture and identity, and acknowledge the deep and enduring connection that the Native communities of the UK maintain with their ancestral homeland, affirming and honoring their rights and heritage. We must support decolonization efforts and acknowledge the historical harms inflicted on the Native peoples of the UK and the broader indigenous community all across Western Europe and the entire Anglosphere.
