USA citizens know less about Bible than Qu’ran

Genesis 17: (20) And as for Ishmael, I have heard thee; behold, I have blessed him, and will make him fruitful, and will multiply him exceedingly; twelve princes shall he beget, and I will make him a great nation. "

America is so scared of Islam. We have a stupid word for this, “Islamophobia .” 

 This is what the Qu’ran has to say about mercy: 

“1. Allah is most Merciful

The Qur’an says several times that Allah is the most Merciful. 

In fact all the 114 Surahs i.e. chapters of the Glorious Qur’an except for Surah Taubah chapter 9, begin with the beautiful formula, Bismillah-hir-Rahman-nir-Rahim, which means, "In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful".”  from

Christians and “leaders” demonized the Qu’ran and Muslims rather than looking at their own Bible for solutions. Our Bible teaches us about Ishmaelites. This is because war against the Ishmaelites is pointless, for they are a people that can’t lose because they have an eternal blessing (Genesis 17:20). If the Ishmaelites lose, then everyone will lose. War against Ishmaelites is destined to fail, even wars Israel may engage in.

Why do I say this?  Because it is something I found in the Bible.

Please verify this verse that I quoted above if you don't believe me.

Genesis 17: (20) And as for Ishmael, I have heard thee; behold, I have blessed him, and will make him fruitful, and will multiply him exceedingly; twelve princes shall he beget, and I will make him a great nation. "

Living for Change by Denying the Greatness of Murder of “Christ”

This following concept, which Jews teach, "Mesirut nefesh," is a major reason for criticism of the most fundamental belief of Christians hold, "That Jesus brought healing through his death; that one died so that many may live."

In Judaism, there is no concept of good human sacrifice, not just giving up things that are pleasing for the soul, but human sacrifice is outright murder.  During Jesus’ murder he was still propagating his insane delusions of grandeur all the while probably considering himself as a martyr.  We should be glad for having the possibility for the insanity plea in the modern judicial system.

During communion Christians teach that either the wine and bread that they drink actually becomes the body and blood of Jesus, or that it is purely symbolic, in either case the eating and drinking of blood is no victory at all, and is a heinous vile religion.

 “Mesirut nefesh -- Hebrew term for self sacrifice -- means both "giving of life" and "giving of will." Self sacrifice is not just the willingness to die for one's beliefs; it is the way in which one lives for them. It is the willingness to sacrifice one's "self" -- one's desires, one's preconceptions, one's most basic inclinations.” - The Lubavitcher Rebbe via Chabad.org

Jews and Christians will have to disagree on this one.  Jews say that the way to best change the world is to live in the world and effect change to it by repairing the world, a good deed, which is a far cry from a rape of power, as was done to Jesus.

Still today, many weep for Jesus and what he went through, which I don’t wish to deny that he died a horrible death; however, a world of weeping and guilt over the murder of one person is no way to exist in a peaceful world.

Seriously, Christians, how can you celebrate this image? a heinous image, where you worship this man, a lunatic, having no idea of right or wrong?  Look to the dove, and the clean world brought to Noah because Noah LIVED to effect change!!!  In Jesus there is death and nothing but death.

Is Humanity Innately Evil and In Need of the Forgiveness of Jesus?

It is bothersome when Christians focus on how bad they are, such that they proclaim how badly they need Jesus’ forgiveness. This is a mistake because when Hashem created us; He created us “Good.”

Genesis 1:31 (courtesy of www.chabad.org), “And God saw all that He had made, and behold it was very good, and it was evening and it was morning, the sixth day.”

That goodness did not fade away. The incident of Adam and Eve in Gan Eden does not mean that since then, humans have been hopelessly evil or wicked. Nowhere does Gd say something so disparaging as to say humanity, His creation, is evil. Quite the contrary as Isaiah teaches (60:21), “And your people, all of them righteous, shall inherit the land forever, a scion of My planting, the work of My hands in which I will glory.”

Focusing on the evils that are possible because Hashem has given us freewill is not even half the story.

Psalm 139 says, “For You created my mind; You covered me in my mother's womb. I will thank You, for I was formed in an awesome and wondrous way.”

We should take pride in ourselves and be thankful that we are Hashem’s creation, and not blaspheme it through constant proclamation of our iniquities. Truly, Hashem made us good, and our goodness out of the womb is a reflection of the wisdom He used to create each of us with when we were formed. Rather than focusing on our iniquities, we should be thankful for all that Hashem has given us.

Billions of Christians do not worship in the way that Jews do. (Edited)

That Jews exclude is relevant to the subject of "Why Jews Exclude," with respect to Christianity. Though Jews have chuckim, chuckim have precise ways that they can be observed. Different from the possibility of Orthodox chuckim observance, Christianity has thousands of different denominations, each with different doctrine. Differently, with Judaism, there is only difference with respect to the amount or level of observance, while Rabbi's are not in disagreement over what the words actually say. For example, Rabbis can argue laws in Talmud, but no Rabbi has a doubt as to the conclusion of the argument in the Mishnah Torah. Christianity has no doctrine or commentary where conclusions gained widespread agreement. Consequently, for lack of coherence Christianity must be excluded from Judaism

The majorities of faith associated religions include Christians and Muslims, and while there is a very small minority of Christians that worship like Jews, not messianic Jews, however, billions of Christians do not worship in the way that Jews do.

Most Jews would probably say Islam is closer to Judaism than Christianity.  The Jews that say Islam is closer to Judaism than Christianity are correct.  It is a shame when Jews and Muslims don't get along.  Islam and Judaism should be like monotheistic brothers.  From the perspective of Judaism, calling Gd Allah is probably just fine, as Allah means, "Hallelujah," in English.

 

Let's get one thing straight, Christianity, especially the Christian doctrine of the New Testament is too confusing if not impossible for Jews to understand (myself included). Consequently, to the fact that leading Jewish rabbis fail to understand the New Testament, is that rabbis believe it is not Jewish.  It cannot be any other way for Jews.  The leading Jews must be able to understand the New Testament in order for it worth anything at all.  Even Christians admit that the New Testament can't be completely understood.  Thus, it is such that the messianic Jews or the Jews 4 Jesus are misguided.

 

The New Testament is often understood by non-Jews to mean, "Do good!"  Sometimes it means that, and other time is has justified Inquisitions, and Crusades. However, beyond that I don't believe that there are many conclusions that we as followers of Torah can make that are in agreement with Christianity.

 

Utopian Atheism: A Threat to an Age of Peace

One of the greatest threats I see to entry to the Messianic age, what is referred to as the 1,000 years, in the book of Revelation, is the idea of the noble atheist.  “Noble atheists” don’t believe in Gd because they see everything that is bad that has happened in history as the result of human faith; things such as the Crusades, the Inquisition, and more recently the Holocaust.  IMHO these horrors have everything to do with Gd, and that there are winners and losers.  The righteous receive rewards.  The wicked are eventually punished or cut off.

The concept “noble atheist” is the idea that if we could just rid humanity of god or God in every way, because there is not Gd according to atheists, then we could achieve some sort of utopia.  This is the ideal to atheists that is unlike other utopias in that it is more like what atheists might term normal living through not associating Gd to life’s ups and downs.

My fellow friends, this is not what Gd wants for us and I don’t believe that He will tolerate all noble atheists, as some of these people, like Christopher Hitchens, will probably just grow angrier and angrier at Gd until their punishments become unbearable, leading them to death.  They won’t even know that the stones thrown from the heavens, nor their followers know that the stones thrown at them from the heavens are due to their deeds because they have wronged the Almighty.

Eventually, Gd will not tolerate the idea of the noble atheist, except for maybe the secular humanist, because these people are cut off from Gd’s word, the Bible.  As Ravi Zacharias said, “Without the Bible, the world would be without a compass.”  Now I know he, Ravi, is a Christian.  However, there are a lot of Christians that do a lot right, and just a little wrong.  I know that I have associated Christianity as being one of the great evils of our world, and that Hashem is the only answer to Christianity, but that is not to say nothing good ever came from Christianity.  Hopefully, Christians will come to see that Judaism is the only way, and that Jesus does not represent, “The way, the truth and the life,” at all for Talmud includes, “Jesus is in hell where he is boiling in hot excrement.”
