Or just God
God is so generic. It could mean really any god.
>is Christian
>Converts to a religion which Jesus repeatedly disavowed
Yes?
I don’t follow Jesus.
And why not?
He says things that are antithetical to Torah.
How
Part of Torah is you must respect you’re parents.
And Torah itself is about Family and Community. That blatantly hurts the family.
And nowhere in Torah does it say that.
You're taking it way out of context
All in all though, the worst offender is Paul. I personally believe Jesus was a freedom fighter, just not God himself.
Okay.
What’s the context?
I’m actually genuinely curious to see what you have to say...it’s something that I find very interesting.
When Jesus said he came to Earth to pit brother v brother, he was specifically talking about that you should put God before family loyalties. Same here. Then most families were not Christian - it is saying if your family is not Christian then you should abandon them in favor of God
Do not value family over God
Okay. I actually agree with that assessment, God should always come first. So why did he say it without any similar context?
He didn’t say “Value God over Family.”
He used that as a flagship statement when speaking to a large crowd.
And when he did preach - most of his listeners families were not Christian - they knew what he was talking about
True. I can get agree with what you are saying. But there are still other points where he contradicts Torah. In fact right here he explicitly states that he contradicts Torah.
Christianity opposes the Torah and Judaism
That is expected
I know.
That’s the problem.
Although I do support Christianity.
Why do you favor the Torah then
My brethren are Christians and I appreciate that. I would like them to go back to Christianity and ditch this secular nonsense. I favor Torah because it adds a stability to my life. I have guidelines I need to follow and I genuinely believe it’s correct. Not just choosing a religion to follow, but something deep down I appreciate and believe.
Sad
Christianity is far more applicable
BuddhaGang anyone?
🤷🏼♂️
I support Christianity.
But I am Jewish by religion. Or you could just call me a Torah follower.
