🤷🏼‍♂️ I think we keep doing what the Hebrews did... told to conquer and remove the heathens, but instead we decide to kill a few then invite the survivors in our homes and breed with them.

Yup

Like in Joshua I think it is.

God wanted the Jews to have their own distinct and separate culture. Set them apart from the rest. Hence the 617 Mosaic Laws. And every time they bring in a pagan, it watered down their culture just a little bit

A drop of water in the Kool Aid

Yeah exactly.

You start with some sweet nigga red Kool Aid

Then you end up eventually with some slightly pink water with no taste

Worse than the water by itself

We have water, and we have Kool Aid, but if you throw that shit together we don't even have a name for it. It's just nothing. And you dump it in the sink because it's worthless.

On your asking for the Bible as a legitimate source... Historians rate the legitimacy of ancient sources based on how many “original” copies exist. All we know about the Ancient Greek philosophers and mathematicians is from less than 10 documents. There’s a few instances where we only have a single historical reference, yet we just accept that these people and their work exists/existed.

We have over 1,000 original copies of the Bible.

And they all remain over 90% the same.

who tries to find the true meaning of life on a meme discord

Yes

We been doing that since it started my man 😉😁

@Deleted User I am starting to believe in God. I was a stout atheist.

Christ is the only way. It is the only religion and doctrine that preaches that a God loves us. Imagine that, pathetic, weak beings being treasured by a God above all else.

Every other religion preaches a message of obedience. Of war. Or is polytheistic and derives from paganism.

Logos

There is historical evidence that Christ existed. They have even found his tomb, and it was empty.

Jesus was a righteous jew though

Another piece of evidence is that the gospel teaches that Abraham, and his descendants rose from their graves and many people saw them.

They then transcended to Heaven.

The cave of patriarchs is also empty.

And the talmudic Jews lost 75% of their people to conversion after Christ

Until the day of Christ, the Jews were God's chosen people. Chosen to make a covenant with God, to obey the 617 Mosaic laws in exchange for Israel and special protections. A covenant they broke a million times.

And with the fulfillment of the law in Christ, all Christians became God's chosen people. Not the Jews.

And their book, the Torah, even tells all the times they screwed up.

The Jews lost their special status

What happens to all the non jews?

Israel? Palestine? Or how about the Kingdom of Jerusalem?<:smugpepe:445634631950139403>

Will they go to hell?

In the OT? No

They were only obligated to the seven laws of Noah

As long as they follow those they are righteous gentiles

Say I was in 2000BC China

But they don't get special stuff

What were rhe 7 laws?

Do not worship idols. Do not curse God. Establish courts for justice. Do not murder. Do not commit sexual immorality. Do not steal. Do not eat animals that are still alive.

They could eat the unclean animals, yeah?

That was forbidden I believe.
