@abi4560 No, they trust Martin Luther’s, John Calvin’s, and Augustine’s words over their Creator’s words.

If divorce is really off the table, you and your spouse should be comfortable signing anything that’s predicated on divorce.

For example, a good prenup should penalize you for initiating a no-fault divorce. If you refuse to sign it, you just admitted divorce is a possibility.

@samueladlerblog Meant to say “evangelicalized” meaning that most of the messianic Jewish movement are evangelical Christian’s Al who are interested in applying Judaism to their foundational religious practices rooted in the reformation. However, for me, my practice is rooted in my Judaism.

Catholic say: “Pray to Mary.”

Protestants say: “Pray to Jesus.”

Messianic Jews say: “Pray to Adonai our God and ask of him with the authority of Jesus.”

@JosiahForYeshua Call them “to repentance.” The righteous are still called to accept messiah.

1. There is a misconception by Christians about what keeping Torah, all the commandments, means. Keeping Torah means when you sin, repent, then go back to keeping Torah. This is keeping Torah:

@PaetzoldBill @LizzyHock1963 Very often. Even more often than depicted in Jesus Christ Super Star!

The church I attended was walking us through communion and said this is the only place where Jesus sang a hymn, and He likely did so because he sang in the face of the evil to come at crucifixion.

In realty, Jesus sang every year pursuant to rabbinical traditions of Passover.

[Jacob Mendelsohn @themendelbrain]

@LizzyHock1963 Agreed. Do we know of anyone in particular that Jesus would have been referring to?

[Jacob Mendelsohn @themendelbrain]

When Jesus says

“It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick. I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners”

Who is he referring to as the “healthy” and “righteous?”

[Jacob Mendelsohn @themendelbrain]

@haiku757 Do we have any indication who those people were at the time of Jesus?

[Jacob Mendelsohn @themendelbrain]

@JosiahForYeshua I don’t like the answer choices because “Jews don’t need Yeshua” can mean several different things, which depending on the meaning can either be correct or wrong.

The over simplistic answer is they are loved and a part of God’s plan.

[Jacob Mendelsohn @themendelbrain]

@RealAlexJ215 @rabbriansamuel A “human sacrifice” is typically associated with unwilling participants or being failing to revere one’s life. But the Torah never says we can’t save others or be a martyr for refusing to break God’s commands.

[Jacob Mendelsohn @themendelbrain]

@RestoredMySoul @UnderCoercion But when Jesus says that, He is telling us that He is the Spirt of Torah made flesh, for Torah is also the way, truth, and life and leads us to the Father.

[Jacob Mendelsohn @themendelbrain]

@MilesTeg11 Because they know it’s fake. A real relationship with God doesn’t manifest itself into repeating these doctrines designed for proselytizing.

[Jacob Mendelsohn @themendelbrain]

@Rich_Cooper It says more about a person who refuses to sign a prenup than the person who proposes a prenup. A prenup can be drafted to protect marriage.

Refusing to sign one is a major red flag. If divorce is off the table, it shouldn’t matter what you sign.

[Jacob Mendelsohn @themendelbrain]

@LizzyHock1963 @ThenIsaugh Yet simultaneously tell us we need to be rooted in the Bible. lol

[Jacob Mendelsohn @themendelbrain]

When a non-denominational Protestant church repeats Psalm 1, what do they think it actually means?

[Jacob Mendelsohn @themendelbrain]

@ThenIsaugh @LizzyHock1963 Correct, or they would argue it was not revealed until Paul.

[Jacob Mendelsohn @themendelbrain]

@ridgelinepath Yeah, I suppose that’s true, though I’m just using supersessionism in a broader sense that the meaning at the time it was written is superseded by a new meaning. So the words of Psalm 1 is no longer universal but categorical.

[Jacob Mendelsohn @themendelbrain]

@ridgelinepath So basic supersessionism.
