Yay!

I can’t lose something that someone can’t or didn’t give me for my salvation is my trust and faithfulness in the true God of Israel (Hashem)

Today, it's important to remember the victory achieved through Yeshua's sacrifice. Satan, a fallen angel who rebelled against God, was cast out of heaven with his followers. As a tempter and adversary of humanity, he seeks to lead people away from God and into sin. Satan's influence over the earth and people comes from his role as the prince of this world, as mentioned in scriptures like John 12:31 and 2 Corinthians 4:4. This authority stems from humanity's fall into sin, which began when Adam and Eve disobeyed God in the Garden of Eden. Their act of disobedience broke their relationship with God and brought consequences for all of humanity, including a weakened will against sin and a tendency towards selfishness. As a result of the Fall, Satan gained influence over humanity, exploiting their vulnerability to sin and temptation. This control is not a formal agreement between Satan and God but a consequence of human free will and the choice to turn away from God. Satan's influence is perpetuated through temptation and deception. Yeshua's sacrifice is crucial for humanity's redemption and the restoration of their relationship with God. By offering Himself as a perfect and sinless sacrifice, Yeshua atoned for humanity's sins and provided a path for reconciliation with God. This act of atonement, or redemption, allows Christians to overcome the power of sin and Satan through faith in Jesus and His sacrifice. The battle is not just about the afterlife; believers are promised eternity with God, but aligning with Jesus also pertains to the ongoing spiritual battle here on earth. Two opposing forces vie for our allegiance, often without our knowledge. Satan targets inherent human weaknesses through manipulation and deception. This struggle is about living a fulfilling and autonomous life, free from the control of a manipulative demon set on enslavement and destruction. Yeshua's sacrifice offers a way to overcome darkness in this life and for eternity. Yeshua is the Way, the Truth, and the Life. Amen y Shalom Shalom.

Nonsense

Yes. They had to appeal to masses of pagans; particularly in Europe, which was entirely pagan. So they synthesised Judaism with paganism

@@EuroGuardian there is no Yeshua in Hebrew scripture sources as the Messiah.. Another new pagan idolatry insertion invented

@@kyrptonite1825 Explain. Where trees eggs Virgin birth man God idol concepts come from then? They are not in Hebrew scripture sources.

Trees and Easter eggs are not inherently connected to the religious observance of Christmas and Easter within the church. If you attend a Christian Mass on Christmas, you won't find any symbolism involving a tree. Similarly, eggs are not symbolically represented in church services during the celebration of Jesus's Resurrection (Easter). These elements are, in fact, adaptations or commercializations that society has embraced to profit from the holiday seasons, rather than core aspects of the holy days themselves. As I stated in my original post, true Christians celebrate Easter as the day Jesus was resurrected from the dead, and Christmas is to honor and remember the day Jesus was born. The eggs and the trees are merely peculiar societal adaptations of these Christian holidays for profit. And as for Virgins the idea comes from the Old Testament, 1st temple Judaism. Isaiah 7:14 - "Therefore the Lord himself will give you a sign. Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel." - Christians interpret this prophecy as being fulfilled in Jesus Christ, seeing the virgin birth as described in the New Testament Gospels, with "Immanuel" meaning "God with us." @@MitzvosGolem1

The word Easter has nothing to do with Ishtar🤦‍♂️

Ishtar was associated with lions, not rabbits. Easter is traditionally called Pascha and there’s no connection linguistically between Easter and Ishtar. People say the same about Esther and Ishtar. The only reference to Eoster is from St Bede, and most scholars think he was confused on the subject; and don’t take is seriously. Eosturmonath was the German month in which Easter occurred, which is why It is called Easter. The first reference to an “Easter bunny” is from 1572, long after paganism died out in Europe, and it was originally a hare. These don’t procreate as fast, and are solitary animals. Jacob Grim invented the pagan idea, in the 17th century, and he had no evidence. The most probable explanation for the usage of the “Easter hare”, is because you don’t see them in the Winter, but they come out in the Spring around Easter for mating season. Easter’s dating was a controversy on the early Church, and it was found through using passages of Scripture to date things. The only reason eggs were used in pagan rituals was the same reason why crops and meat were used; they were commonly eaten. 1290 is the first reference of Easter eggs. King Edward 1 was said to give a bunch of golden eggs to his family on Eastern Sunday, the paper trail ends there. There are claims about Easter eggs descending from Persian Christians, Painting it Red symbolizing the Blood of Christ, Japanese mythology, Babylonian mythology, Druid mythology, etc. Easter eggs most likely came from the fact that Lent prohibited eggs for the full 40 days, and so towards the end of Easter, peasants would hard boil them, since they commonly couldn’t afford meat. There’s no evidence of Easter coming from paganism. This is honestly just a basic conspiracy theory, like the earth is flat, or something. The fact that Tovia Singer is actually going along with it, shows how much of a “scholar”, he really is. Everything he mentions already has answers. It’s honestly crazy to me, how many people trust him.

He really said that? 😂 First of all, we don’t hold that the Sabbath is Sunday, it’s the Lord’s Day, which replaced the Sabbath in our tradition. Secondly, multiple sources, not just Ignatius, say Sunday. Even John mentions the Lord’s Day. Acts mentions them Breaking Bread (the Eucharist), and collecting Alms on Sunday. So does Irenaeus. So does the Didache. So does Justin Martyr. Paul says not to follow Sabbaths.

Correct it is a pagan holiday that is celebrated at the same time as the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ so people can ignore Jesus entirely by focusing only on the pagan rituals as if he didn’t die and return from death here on earth on the cross.

@@Howdoyoupurr you’re grabbing at strings trying to make your religion not seem situating

yes. Each man will be judged according to his own transgressions. Do you think that there is any man without sin? Have you sin? The punishment for your guilt is death. We all have sin? We all deserve that death sentance. Do you believe if you were offered a pardon for your sin, you would reject it? I wouldn't. That is what God is offering you. A pardon from death. Take it or leave it... it's a choice. That choice is offered to and anyone who has sin. There is no one without sin. We all deserve a guilty sentance. On the day of judgement, your good deeds is worthy as soiled toilet paper to God; scriptures says: "your good deeds are like filthy menstrual rags to God." What sentence do you believe you will be handed? There is no one good in the sight of God... none. I prefer to take that pardon! Wouldn't you? This pardon is offered by God thru the death of his beloved son Jesus Christ. "The lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world." He paid that debt to God for what you and i and all mankind deserved. Chose death if you wish... but all is trying to get to heaven some way or another; Or you wouldn't be here seeking refuge, doing good deeds or praying to some god that you think can help you; none can, only make claims as such. Seek the one who died for your sinful nature. Let Him transform you into a warrior of peace and ever lasting righteousness. You deserve death. God offers you life.

Also, Paul's constant fighting with everyone versus his demands that women co-workers get along, etc!

@@kyrptonite1825 Sacrifice means you give something up, you lose something, not that you don't lose it, lol.

He's sitting right next to you. You didn't "sacrifice" anything, you got it back. And moreover, you knew all along that you'd get it back. Again, that's actually the opposite of the definition of sacrifice. You knew you wouldn't really be losing something or giving anything up. So it's more than a little disingenuous of JC (or xhristianity) to claim he knowingly "sacrificed" anything, when he knew all along it wasn't going to be true. That's called "fraud," in case you didn't know. So christianity's a fraud and a scam. A fraud based on the false claim of a "sacrifice" when, according to its very own doctrine, there was no sacrifice. he either lost his life and he's dead, and that's a sacrifice, or he didn't lose his life and he's not dead, and there's no sacrifice. You can't have it both ways.

There's so much to unpack and available to discover thanks to modern technology but to get to the point, 👉there's only One God and no savior but God alone, according to Hosea 13:4, Isaiah 43:10-11; Isaiah 44:6; Isaiah 45:21-22. The text literally says it over and over again. You don't need to be guilted into the lie that some innocent person died for you or use fear of burning for all eternity in hell - that's all fake news to manipulate you. God has been forgiving all along to those who seek Him.

Uhhh.....NOOO!! He's an extremely learned Rabbi who knows BOTH the Hebrew scriptures, AND the Christian Bible inside out - he has been studying BOTH in great detail for the past 40+ YEARS!!

@user-wd7ex4gr6b Paul was a very learned man, lawyer, scribe. He also thought he knew the Bible and then he had an encounter with the Lord. After that he really KNEW the Bible.

@@user-wd7ex4gr6b He can know & regurgitate every word of all books known to mankind & still fail the task. "Educating the mind without educating the heart is no education at all." - Aristotle

Paul does represent a curious case. How could an educated, religious man vehemently opposed to a heretical belief system suddenly become its most radically outspoken proponent?

@JohnSincerity how? because he encountered the Divine, the Lord must've explained to him in some way how to interpret the scriptures so at the end it clicks and someone sees the Truth. It's like giving life to a dead person, a walking person but spiritually dead. That's God in action.

What do you mean didn't take off? We aren't supposed to evangelise. The whole world isn't supposed to be jewish. Judaism is having all the success that G-d promised

Christianity took off because the gentiles was spreading the Jews religion and scriptures with a pagan doctrine twist. The worst one is the “trinity”😂

@@goldengun9970Thank you for allowing me to clarify.I understand the whole world isn't supposed to be Jewish. Some 2 million jews heard God's voice at Mt.Sinai. I would think there would be a more powerful traction from such a phenomena through oral tradition. Wouldn't others,besides Jews, hear this message Or was it only the exiled Jews through Moses? Even so, i would still think the word would spread.

@@mooshei8165 Thank you , I agree about the trinity. So did Christianity become more convincing?

@baldeagle-cq2jl what has and will happen is exactly what G-d has promised and planned and his plan is literally perfect

correct, the Council of Nicaea in 325 decreed that Easter should be observed on the first Sunday following the first full moon after the spring equinox (March 21) , Ēostre, , the Celtic goddess of Spring, was also celebrated exactly at spring equinox. There is also the babylonian goddess of spring "Ishtar" Ishtar is the wife of Tammuz. Tammuz was born on Dec 25th, was known as the "shepherd", and worshiped as a reincarnation of the sun god "Nimrod", because of the 3 day death of the sun (astrology) [Mithras sun god also born dec 25th, worshipped on SUNdays) on top of that all the pagan symbolisms... Problems with this: in Exodus 23:13, God warned his people not to even speak the name of another God, let alone name a holiday after the goddess Easter and then dedicate that holiday after another god to him. You cannot worship God in that way even if its worshipping him and even if your intention is good: ⭐Deut 12:29-32 regarding the caananites: "31 You must not worship the Lord your God in their way, because in worshiping their gods, they do all kinds of detestable things the Lord hates. 32 See that you do all I command you; do not add to it or take away from it." - Bonus: "Learn not the way of the nations, nor be dismayed at the signs of the heavens because the nations are dismayed at them, for the customs of the peoples are vanity" "Take no part in the unfruitful works of darkness, but instead expose them." "You shall not worship the Lord your God in that way, for every abominable thing that the Lord hates they have done for their gods, for they even burn their sons and their daughters in the fire to their gods." The Lord says, “Do not learn the way of the nations. They cut wood from the trees. A workman cuts it with an ax. 4 They make it beautiful with silver and gold. They put it together with nails so that it cannot fall apart.

Ding ding ding! Tell 'em what he's won, Johnny! 😂

Somebody can’t comprehend Metaphors

@@kyrptonite1825 This isn’t metaphorical anyway but it refers to the second coming and if this are metaphors then explain for what these metaphors stand what is their real meaning

Why are you quoting the pagan christian bible, no one cares about that.

Non-Jews need to keep the 7 Noahide commandments.

@@hrvatskinoahid1048 As a Christain we are not bound by the 613 laws but that does not mean we need to be a group law breakers. We need to keep the 10 commandments and Jesus told us to: Mark 12:30-31 New International Version 30 Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.’[a] 31 The second is this: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’[b] There is no commandment greater than these.”. So we can eat cheese burgers and maybe get a tatoo but we are not supposed to wave that cheeseburger under the noses of our Jewish Neighbors or we are not allowed to lead anyone astray. We are still supposed to keep the Sabath, though for some reason we changed it to Sunday instead of Saturday.

@@hrvatskinoahid1048 One more thing. Christians are 1. Bond servant of Christ and that means we must obey him. Also, we are ambassadors of Christ, so we have quite a bit of weight on our shoulders and that doesn't mean we get to live wild lives, we are commanded to "Follow" Christ and be like him. So we don't need to have a Rabi go through our kitchens before Pesach we must strive to be Christlike in thought and deed. We are commanded to take every thought captive. I can go on but being a Christain is no easier than being Jewish. We all have to strive to love one another and Love God even more.

@@pebear No, Gentiles have 7 commands.

The Council of Nicaea in 325 decreed that Easter should be observed on the first Sunday following the first full moon after the spring equinox (March 21) , Ēostre, , the Celtic goddess of Spring, was also celebrated exactly at spring equinox.

@@ts8960 there is no Celtic goddess called oestre

@@juan_martinez524 Ēostre is a West Germanic spring goddess.

I hate everybody. I guess I pass the audition?

Metaphor

Also the word more correctly translates to “love more”

Why would anyone want to follow a narcissist? …creating chaos and destruction to the family?…the very opposite of the true messiah..

Did you watch Ceaser's Messiah? It explains this

@@ts8960 I have, but it's been quite a while. Other things stood out more to me I guess. Thanks!

The Tanakh is full of divine warnings of impending judgement and painful consequences. Couldn't a rational person simply argue that Hell represents the finality and totality of this concept?

@@JohnSincerity You missed the entire point! The real God doesn’t have to resort to threats of sending someone to hell as He controls everything anyway. Besides, what good is hell after one is already dead? Scripture defines evil as anything or anyone who makes threats. The real God does not make threats-He just does what He wants as He controls everything anyway.

​@@johnzarr6590 The key lies in the intent. From your perspective, hell is invoked in the New Testament to threaten people into belief in Jesus. However, if you categorize all of the reasons given for such belief and their number of appearances, "hell" and "judgement" are far outnumbered by "satisfaction", "completion", and "restoration". This suggests that - identical to Tanakh - that while God desires union and companionship with man, man's actions are not without consequences (consequences that we are still informed about in advance). I really like your question about death...that's another great conversation all on it's own!

@@JohnSincerity Deuteronomy 13:1 “Everything I command you that you shall be careful to do it. You shall neither add to it, nor subtract from it.” According to Deuteronomy 13:1 you have committed a grave & sinful act to even mention the NT. So go repent & talk no more.

@@johnzarr6590 Isn't Deuteronomy 13:1 the reason the Samaritans only accept the Torah as valid, and not the Nevi'im and the Ketuvim - the rest of the Tanakh - which came after?

Yes. We know the truth.

@@JenepherDEEPLAL Truth is the Torah.

It's Tanakh, not "tankha." It's basically an acronym. "Old Testament" is offensive.

@@stephaniefogelvik4756 Touché My favorite prophesy is would Jesus make atonement : Numbers 35:33 New King James Version 33 So you shall not pollute the land where you are; for blood defiles the land, and no atonement can be made for the land, for the blood that is shed on it, except by the blood of ➡him who shed it.
