The modern Jewish Messianic concept in Orthodox Judaism

There are many reasons that many Jews are resistant towards the gospel of Jesus.
They have beliefs hat make it hard for Jewish people to accept Jesus as their Messiah and Savior.
Many Jewish teachers teaches the Moshiach (Messiah) will come if Israel repented in a single day, or if Israel observed a single Shabbat properly.
They have other thoughts like if Israel observed two Shabbats in a row properly or in a generation that is totally innocent or totally guilty.
Here is another thought that many Jews have, the Moshiach will come in a generation that loses hope; in a generation where children are totally disrespectful towards their parents and elders or he will come before the Jewish year 6,000 which is over 200 years from now.
Jesus fulfilled many prophecies that was observed. The Messiah/Moshiach will be a descendant of King David according to 2 Samuel 7:12-17 and when we read Luke 1:32-33, we see that Jesus is the Messiah.
The Messiah will come from the city of David, Bethlehem according to Micah 5:2 and we read in in Matthew 2:1-6, that Jesus was born in Bethlehem.
The Jews thought that Jesus would be the conquering King to beat down the Romans Empire. They forgot to read that Jesus is the conquering King in his second coming and not his first coming. His first coming would be a suffering King when he redeemed the country of Israel and the world.

Alcohol in the Bible and the Koran, my Muslim friend

I am familiar with Islam and I know that people that believe in the Koran should not drink alcohol. I know that you might have a problem with Jesus in the second chapter of the book of John. Jesus made water into wine.
The water of the day was bad so people drink wine because it was purified water. It killed anything that would cause a person to get sick. I believe that people have good water to drink so people should not drink alcohol but it is a sin to get drunk. I say don't get near the edge and you will be okay.
Again, some Muslims may object saying: "How can the Messiah of God make wine and offer it to the people to drink?  God has prohibited wine in the Torah, and the Qur'an repeated that prohibition in the Table 90 and The Cow 216, saying: 'O believers, wine and arrow-shuffling, idols and divining-arrows are an abomination, some of Satan's work; so avoid it; haply so you will prosper."
In the meantime, you will find that the Qur'an is promising the believers not just one river but rivers of wine as a delight to the drinkers.
The Qur'an says: "This is the similitude of Paradise which God-fearing have been promised; therein are rivers of water uninstalling, rivers of milk unchanging in flavor and rivers of wine- a delight to the drinkers. (Mohammed   15; Man 15; Man ; The Stiners 25).
Here, we see curiosity peaks and many questions are being raised: "how did the Qur'an prohibit the wine here on earth but make it available to Paradise inhabitants in enormous quantities, flowing as rivers to drink without end?
Does the Qur'an mean that God prohibits wine here on earth but He allows it to the Paradise inhabitants so that they can get drunk in heaven?"
The answer is clear. The Holy God prohibits wine and drunkenness on earth, does not allow, in His pure heaven, drunkenness or any agent that causes drunkenness. If wine were found in heaven, it will be that good wine that by nature has nothing to do with drunkenness. In the same thought, we find Christ, in chapter two in the book of John, not performing a miracle to offer the people the wine that cause them to lose their memory, their, their balance, and their self-respect but rather He made that other kind of wine, the good wine. He made that wine that was a delight unto the drinkers who, once they tasted it, the influence of the earthly wine evaporated and their minds were made alert; consequently, they rose up asking about that good wine that was really a delight to the drinkers.


John 2:7-11

 

Jesus said to the servants, “Fill the jars with water”; so they filled them to the brim.
Then he told them, “Now draw some out and take it to the master of the banquet.”
They did so, and the master of the banquet tasted the water that had been turned into wine. He did not realize where it had come from, though the servants who had drawn the water knew. Then he called the bridegroom aside 10 and said, “Everyone brings out the choice wine first and then the cheaper wine after the guests have had too much to drink; but you have saved the best till now.”
11 What Jesus did here in Cana of Galilee was the first of the signs through which he revealed his glory; and his disciples believed in him. 

We live in a cold world

We live in a cold world
The leaders have empty promises
We need to claim the victory

The Winner arrived two thousands years
We can be pardon from our death penalty
Have peace that is heavenly

Christ came to this world
Mary gave birth to the Savior
We have seen God face to face

God moves in great ways
Joseph thought Mary cheated
Then God revealed to His will to Mary's husband

Jesus became a baby for sinful man
He grew up and became the perfect Lamb
The sacrifice that everyone needs

I am sick and you have cancer
Doctor Jesus have the cure
We need to accept the medicine

The marriage, my Muslim Friend

The Lord Jesus Christ honored the marriage by his presence at the wedding ceremonies at Cana. In this sense, marriage in the real Christian circles is taken more seriously than in other religions.
First of all, the Christian marriage is not a mere contract that can be annulled or rescinded whenever the husband or the wife wants. In real Christianity, the marriage is a lifelong commitment and union, where the two become one before God, for life.."for better or for worse, for richer or poorer, in sickness and in health, until death do us part."
Such marriage is based upon trust, love and faithfulness, by both parts, the husband and the wife. In Christian marriages, the husband is expected to love his wife as Christ loved the church and died for it, and the wife is expected to honor her husband and follow his lead as the spiritual leader of their household. The husband is not considered better nor the wife inferior, but rather, both are equal in Christ. Of course there can be tense moments, misunderstanding and fiction, but a Christian couple work seriously in order to iron out their differences, keep their vows and make sure that their marriage work. Unfortunately, wherever you see divorces among so-called Christian, you know then that they are not living the real Christian life, and they will surely give an account before the Judgement Seat of Christ. 


John 2:1-2

  On the third day a wedding took place at Cana in Galilee. Jesus’ mother was there, and Jesus and his disciples had also been invited to the wedding.

Opposition from family and friends within the Jewish families

There are struggles in every life that lives upon this earth. We have all type of trouble. When a  person have faith in Jesus then they will be hated.
There are many reasons that many Jewish people don't have faith in Jesus as their Messiah.
One reason is opposition from family and friends. Jewish people struggle to believe in Jesus because they want love from their peers.
The Jewish teachers teaches that you can't be Jewish if you believe Jesus is the Messiah. Many Jewish people that don't know the Bible very well but they are taught that Jews can't believe in Jesus.
This culture makes it hard to reach the Jewish people.
There have been Messianic Jewish but they have lost their jobs. Many Jews are in fear of this type of treatment.
There are the threats of a symbolical funeral. If a son believe in Jesus then the father and mother will act like their son is dead.
They have been death threats upon the Messianic Jews which could lead up to physical attacks.
There are many Jews that don't believe for these reasons.
I am praying that the Jewish people spiritual eyes would be awoken. I pray for the Jews, everyday.

 

Psalm 122

 

I rejoiced with those who said to me,
    “Let us go to the house of the Lord.”
Our feet are standing
    in your gates, Jerusalem.
Jerusalem is built like a city
    that is closely compacted together.
That is where the tribes go up—
    the tribes of the Lord
to praise the name of the Lord
    according to the statute given to Israel.
There stand the thrones for judgment,
    the thrones of the house of David.
Pray for the peace of Jerusalem:
    “May those who love you be secure.
May there be peace within your walls
    and security within your citadels.”
For the sake of my family and friends,
    I will say, “Peace be within you.”
For the sake of the house of the Lord our God,
    I will seek your prosperity.

Kung ang Diyos ay naging tao

Tila ang buhay ay malupit
Nasaan ang Diyos?
Pabayaan at sakit


Ang Diyos ng Islam ay tila may poot
Hindi maranasan ang kanyang pag-ibig
Hindi mo alam kung langit o impiyerno


Ang Buddhist ideya hindi sa katotohanan
Hindi ko ng tulong ang mga tao
Ang karma ay ang dahilan ng pagdurusa


Narinig ko ang pag-asa
Diyos ay naging isang tao
Binisitang sa awa mula sa langit


 Mahusay kaluwalhatian ng Panginoon
Sinoma'y hindi hawakan ito
Si Hesus ay nagpakita sa mundong ito


 Nabuhay si Hesus sa perpektong lugar
Ngunit binili niya ang isang spot sa langit
Siya ay nanirahan sa isang perpektong buhay


 Namatay siya sa krus
Lupigin ng kamatayan sa ikatlong araw
Ang pinakamalaking aralin kasaysayan

The King of mankind, my Muslim friend

It's far from it that the Christians believe that God married a woman from He begot a son in a sexual, congenital birth, after the manner of men. But the Sonship of Christ is a spiritual, sublime Sonship wherein the Son emanated from the Father in the beginning:i.e, in eternity before time. El-Ghazzali, one of the most famous and greatest Muslim scholars, excelled as he described the Christian doctrine of the Trinity, in his book THE BEAUTIFUL REPLY, saying: "The Christians believe that the Self of the Creator, the Most High, is one in essence, but it has considerations. When the existence is considered not contingent on anything else, then it is the absolute existence, and that is what they call the Person of the Father. But if it was considered contingent on another existence, as science is contingent on the existence of the world, such is the definite existence, and that is what they call the Person of the Son, or the Word. And when it is considered contingent on the power of His reasoning, emanating from Him, then, that also is a definite existence, and they call it the Person of the Holy Spirit, because the Self of the Creator is reasoned through Him."
In a word, El-Ghazzali, the well-known Muslim scholar, proved his in-depth and genuine understanding of the Holy Trinity, and he expressed it grandiloquently and genuinely, proving that the son emanated from the Father, and that He was equal to Him. All those attributes that are distinctive of Christ in the Bible and the Qur'an are but the solid proof clear evidence of Christ's deity.


John 1:49

 Nathanael answered Him, “Rabbi, You are the Son of God; You are the King of Israel.”

The modern period of Anti-Jewish movements

I don't like writing about the anti-Jewish movements but I write about truth. I will talk about some of the modern movements that hurts Israel. If you like history then you can read more about these movements.
There was the Russian Pogroms, the Holocaust, the Middle East Wars, the Infitada, the terrorism and treats that people hear on the news when Israel deals with Palestinians, Hamas, Hexbollah, Al Qaeda, Iran, European Union, Russia, England and the United States. And I can't forget about the United Nations.
Israel will help the wounded soldiers of the other side and help the opposition but the other side will not help Israel. They want to destroy every Jew.
The world will pressure Israel to give up land that would be dumb in the name of peace. If this country did that then there would be no Israel.
I like what the Prime Minister of Israel said, "We are guilty until proven guilty." Benjamin Netanyahu is and will be pressured to give away "Land for Peace", the Palestinians and Hamas want to kill and have no peace.
But I have good news for the Jews. God of the Bible is not done with them. There will be a day when they will acknowledge their Messiah.
I believe that the follower of Jesus needs to pray and love upon the Jewish people. There is hope in the Lord.

Zechariah 12:10-14

 10 “And I will pour out on the house of David and the inhabitants of Jerusalem a spirit of grace and supplication. They will look on me, the one they have pierced, and they will mourn for him as one mourns for an only child, and grieve bitterly for him as one grieves for a firstborn son. 11 On that day the weeping in Jerusalem will be as great as the weeping of Hadad Rimmon in the plain of Megiddo. 12 The land will mourn, each clan by itself, with their wives by themselves: the clan of the house of David and their wives, the clan of the house of Nathan and their wives, 13 the clan of the house of Levi and their wives, the clan of Shimei and their wives, 14 and all the rest of the clans and their wives.



胜利的一天

My muslim friend, the name above all names

Jesus was uniquely singled out in he Qur'an as the "Christ" or the "Messiah". According to the Prophets and the Torah, the bearer of that prophetical title was anointed by God to occupy a very high position, near-stationed to God, that no human is worthy of occupying. And Jesus as the Messiah was confirmed to the world as the Messiah who is the Savior of the World, and to fulfill the prophecies: "To Him give all the prophets witness, that through His name whosoever believeth in Him shall receive remission of sins" (Acts 10:43). Thus Christ was distinguished from all the prophets, was exalted above every name and will be the judge of the world.
John 1:41
The first thing Andrew did was to find his brother Simon and tell him, “We have found the Messiah” (that is, the Christ).

The hatred of the Jews by some people

I believe that in the past, there were some true believers that caused harm upon the Jews and there were non-believers that caused harm unto to the Jews, too.
The church should support the Jews and be their friends. Many Jews will be stubborn but the Born Again people needs to be patient with Israel.
The church of the Middle Ages from the 5th to the 19th Centuries had some bad history towards the Jews.
I believe that there were true believers and false believers that persecuted the Jews so many Jews think the cross of Jesus is anti-Semitic.
The true believers needs to realize this point so they need to pray and love the Chosen People.
If you like to read history, all these movement had anti-Semitic feeling in a small or great manner.
Here are the list if you like to read. The Romans Catholic Church; the Crusades, the charge of ritual murder, the abominable distinctive dress, Bernard of Clairvaux (1090-1153 A.D.), the Black Death of Europe (1447-1450 A.D.), Compulsory attendance at preaching sessions, the ghetto, the Spanish Inquisition and Expulsion of the Jews in 1492 A.D., the Chemlicki massacres from 1648 A.D. to 1658 A.D.
I hate to say this but Martin Luther was a great man of God but he started to hate the Jews during the Reformation. He did a lot of good work but being anti-Jew wasn't good.
And read about the Debates. Here are an long list of history that I am not going to brag to other people.
I believe reaching the Jewish people are hard because they are stubborn but the Holy Spirit can do great things.

Romans 11:1
I ask then: Did God reject his people? By no means! I am an Israelite myself, a descendant of Abraham, from the tribe of Benjamin.

La muerte de Jesús

Jesús visitóeste planeta
Se convirtió en nuestro rescate
Somos culpables de pecado


Cristo murió en la cruz
Esto fue increíble
Que la salvación vino a los hombres


Jesús murió del corazón triste
Pilato se sorprendió
¿Cómo puede una persona rechazar al Señor?


 El cuerpo de Jesús llevó
Estaba envuelto en una tela
Luego fue colocado en una tumba


 Los romanos colocaron una roca
La roca vigilado la tumba
Dios es más grande que las montañas


Algunas personas perdieron la esperanza
Pero Dios es fiel
Él venció a la muerte


La persona de Jesús
Trae la curación
La relación con la humanidad y Dios el Padre

Our rights

The debate on our rights
The pain that we complain
The Greatest received pain


Jesus is the Maker
He didn't have to suffer
But he choose to do so

If I were the Lord
I would stayed in heaven
But Jesus is not me

Jesus allowed himself upon the cross
He was the perfect sacrifice
He was put in our place for eternal life

Jesus was made fun of
But his tenderness didn't fight
He would soon arose from the dead

The curtain of temple torn into two
We no longer need high priest
Jesus became our only High Priest

If a person wants purity
Jesus will give this to them
We are dirty and he is clean

People watched Jesus upon the Roman Wood
We have two decisions in life
We either follow or reject

My Muslim friend, the truth about Jesus

God told John the Baptist about His Son and the Holy Spirit, giving a perfect picture of the Holy Trinity. In the same way, the same picture is reflected not once but twice in the Qu'ran when God quoted as saying:"And We gave Jesus son of Mary the clear signs and confirmed him with the Holy Spirit." (The Cows 87).
Also, the verse in the Surah of the Women 171 described Jesus saying,"His Word that He committed to Mary, and a spirit for Him".
If we study those two Qu'ran verses, we find that the Speaker was God, addressing His Word and supporting Him with His Holy Spirit-no prophet ever was given that privilege. This is a great assurance that Qu'ran did not deviate from reiterating the Gospel's teaching, confirming the reality of the Holy Trinity;i.e, God the Father, the Word and the Holy Spirit.

John 1:33

And I myself did not know him, but the one who sent me to baptize with water told me, ‘The man on whom you see the Spirit come down and remain is the one who will baptize with the Holy Spirit.’

The history of Anti-Semitism

The Jews have a long history of Anti-Semitism.  I don't like saying this but this is the truth.
The church needs to love and support Israel but the early church didn't do what the Lord wanted for them.
You can read the history of the church having Anti-Semitism. I don't believe this was wise but history don't lie and doesn't represent the teaching of the Bible.
You can read the dialogue with Trypho and Justin Martyr, the era was 100-165 A.D.
The Didascalia; Hippolytus; Cyprian 200s A.D; Origen 185-254 A.D.;  Augustine; Council of Nicea 325 A.D.; Chrysostom 386 A.D., Tertullion, Gregory of Nyssa, Cyril of Jerusalem, Jerome; Romans Emperor Theodosius II 404-454 A.D.; the Theodosian Code.
I hope you enjoy history. You can do your own research.

Uyamin ang mga salita ng masama imperyo

Ang pang-uuyam ng mundo
Ang kawalang-paniwala at pagsuway sa hukuman
Sumpa ng diyablo at ang sistema

Ang krus sa likod ni Hesus 
 Nito ang mahinang kalagayan ni Kristo
Ang pumasan ng krus ang isang tao mula Cyrene


Nagkaroon ng isang lottery mga kawal dahil sa damit ni Hesus
Nagkaroon ng isang laro
Ang kawalang-galang ng Panginoon


 Nakabitin sa krus
Namatay sa krus
Ang pagtatanim ay mga salita mula sa mga lider 


Mangyayari ang kasaysayan ngayon
Kawalang-paniwala mula sa mga tao
Alinman naniniwala o hindi naniniwala


Mukhang walang pag-asa para sa mga Anak ng Diyos
Ngunit nangyari ang tagumpay
Bagsak ang kamatayan sa pamamagitan ng pagkabuhay na maguli


 Kung susundin ang Panginoon
Ang krus ay magaganap
Identity sa Panginoong Hesus at ang kanyang nobya


Dapat malaman ang gastos
Libreng ay kaligtasan
Ngunit ibinigay namin ang lahat ng ating mga buhay

My Muslim friends, this is about Jesus and John

John knew that he was born before Christ. That means that he was physically older than Christ, and his ministry started before Christ's; yet John testified that Christ was in existence before him. But there was no way for Jesus to be before John unless Jesus existed in eternity before time. Thus John confirmed the fact of Christ's deity.


John 1:30

 This is the one I meant when I said, ‘A man who comes after me has surpassed me because he was before me.’

The New Testament doesn't promote Anti-Semitism

Jewish people have been persecuted in the name of Jesus and don't want to have anything to do with Christianity.
This fact is true. There have been some misguided people that had hurt the Jews.
If a person follows the Lord Jesus then that person needs to realize that God is not done with the Jews.
There are many non-Jews that follow the Lord Jesus and a small amount of Messianic Jews.
There are blessing upon anyone that blesses Israel. The Jews are not perfect but they need respect.
The bad news is that anti-Semitic acts are increasing world-wide thirty percent in the year of 2012.
The people that know the Lord Jesus needs to reach out to the Jews in love. There is no quick help but if a person prays and loves then God can work on the Jewish people.

Genesis 12:1-3

 The Lord had said to Abram, “Go from your country, your people and your father’s household to the land I will show you.

“I will make you into a great nation,
    and I will bless you;
I will make your name great,
    and you will be a blessing.
I will bless those who bless you,
    and whoever curses you I will curse;
and all peoples on earth
    will be blessed through you.”


Romans 11:1

 I ask then: Did God reject his people? By no means! I am an Israelite myself, a descendant of Abraham, from the tribe of Benjamin.

Los burladores hacia la grandeza

El mundo lleno de burladores
El orgullo les ha superó
Palabras de odio del corazón


 Los soldados capturaron a Jesús
Se burlan de su Hacedor
El rey debe ser tratado mejor


Cristo murió por sus pecados
Pero no tenían conocimiento
Cristo los ha creado


 Los romanos pusieron ropa en Cristo
Entonces la quitaron de Jesús
La cruz estaba a la espera


Creemos que amamos
Pero no se puede comparar con el Señor
Él sufrió por nosotros


La cruz es el puente
Podemos tener una relación
Una relación con el Señor


 Tenemos que darnos cuenta de esta idea
Somos pecadores
Así que tenemos la sangre de Jesús
