Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1229586 It has nothing to do with the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. It's not known in the Jewish faith and neither did Jesus introduce it. Who cares if its part of the Jewish Faith? Get real..we are Christians..Gosh..2000 years and still this..:rollseyes: Speak for yourself! I'm a messianic Jew (a Jew who believes in Yeshua as the Mashiach ben David). Yeshua (or Jesus as you like to call Him) never created a new religion, in fact, He came to fulfill the Torah. In case you don't know it, 80% of the bible centers around the Jews and Israel. Jesus will return on the Mount of Olives, which is in Israel (not in Rome). You can't create a new religion by discarding the teachings of the bible. The bible is God's Word, whether you accept it or not. You stick with Mary and the pope, i'll follow the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. |

Did you have difficulty with the summit of the faith, believing in the most Holy Eucahrist? No, the Eucharist was not hard for me to accept. I suppose I had been "feeling Catholic" for so long, and had such soulful, beautiful preparation from my sponsor, the Sisters, and the Priests, that I was looking forward to the Holy Eucharist with an air of expectancy and joy. I had a few problems, prior to my confirmation of accepting the discipline of preparation...I wanted to be confirmed sooner..but I finally realized it would be happen when God was ready for me to accept the faith fully. I had, besides my sponsor, the Sisters, and Priests, a soon-to-be sister-in -law who had been a Sister for about 20 years before leaving the convent and a future mother-in-law who lovingly taught me the Rosary, the prayers, the Stations of the Cross etc. It was a very intense period in my life and my confirmation was followed by my marriage, in the Church, to the man of my dreams. He was a cradle Catholic and had been schooled by the Jesuits...so, we had this great love and great faith between us as we prepared for both marriage and my confirmation. And, in the Church, I have found peace: although I have my questions, and my doubts, and my temptations. So far, 13 years, of being a practicing Catholic has given me more than words can say.  |

God bless you, + + + message to Father Melvin Doucette November 8, 2012 “I call you My brother Melvin and all My brothers and sisters to be good listeners to what I have to say to you. First of all My words are in the Bible especially in the Gospels and these words are addressed to each one of you. So you should read the Bible every day. The parable of the tenants is really the history of the Jewish people. The vineyard is their country given to them by God the Father. At times He sent prophets to them to teach them and to call them to the right path. What they did with these is this: they beat them and many they killed. At the end the Father sent His only Son and did they respect Him. NO, they did not. Instead they beat Him and crucified Him. He died on the cross. If you had been there is Israel during My lifetime, you too would have done the same thing. You would have killed Me. So now that you believe in Me as the Son of God come and be My friend and follow Me every day. I love you all.” |

Catholicism was established in the 4th century, Protestantism in the 15th century by Luther, Messianic Judaism erected in the 1st century. The followers of Jesus were all Jews and believed in Him as the Messias, that's the concept of messianic Judaism! Where did you get the idea that the bible is a catholic book? It's written by Jewish people, it's about Jewish people. Jesus and Mary went to the synagogue on saturday, does that make them Jews or catholics? Jesus said Himself: "Do not think that I have come to abolish the Torah" (Matthew 5:17), how does the Torah compare to the catholic doctrines? In fact, by studying the Torah you'll see that the catholicism is nothing other than paganism. One more thing: the Jews didn't kill Jesus, He was supposed to die a horrible death. By his death He atoned for the sins of mankind. This is the bible 101. You want to debate about Jewish issues with a Jewish person by using a Jewish book; you're destined to loose. Btw, isn't it weird that catholicism nor catholics is not mentioned in the bible, not even once? |

I cant stay long..I have visitors.. But to put it plainly..and I would be saying the exact same if He had been born in Spain.. Jesus is not His body in my opinion He existed before incarnating..and exists after I have said this over and over again Christ is Universal..and Timeless he is not in my opinion of any race..people or land..or even any religion.He spoke Truth..and from that root came different offsprings..some Catholics..some Protestants..some Orthodox..etc..human interpretation to His words each has their own opinion ..if one appertains to a religion..one thinks usually it is the right one..as I do with the Catholic Faith There is one point though.. Christ passed the bastion of rulership to Peter..till His return..Our church is built upon Peter..and prophecies say it will remain till His reutun and the dark forces will not have power over it I dont think Jesus stopped being Jewish..I believe..that He of course never was Jewish.. |
