How Did Jewish Ritual Become Christian Tradition?-What The Chosen Missed

I lead a woman's group at my church that meets once a month, the subjects for each month were given to me by God in January. Today's subject was lamenting. I had my notes just about ready when left for work this morning, containing information about the temples falling. Then when I came on to watch this live earlier I was astounded at what today is and how God had ordained the study and discussion in our small group to align with this day of mourning🤯. Wow God is so cool!

[@reginapontes5672]

You actually just gave the very reason why you had to do it again. The Mormon faith does NOT believe in the Triune God (Father, Son.Holy Spirit=3 persons in one. I found this chat very helpful in understanding the different distinction between Catholic and Mormonism from a person well versed in both faiths as a practitioner. kzbin.infofT4-T8LRnbk?feature=share

[@ariapeters]

@reginapontes5672 Huh? All that I described is God giving me huge conformation about what He told me in the spirit earlier this year, and how it lines up with the Jewish day of mourning. I'm not a Mormon or a catholic, I follow what the bible says.

The destruction of Solomon's Temple is more than tragic as the Ark, with the original 10 Commandments, was lost at that time. God's presence, the Mercy Seat, was lost. No longer could the blood of sacrifices actually be placed on the Mercy Seat as directed. Although the sacrifices continued, it could not have been the same after that. 😢 JMO

[@anoushkaarmstrong7673]

i really find those comments popping up on the screen very distracting and , honestly, completely unnecessary- everyone one comes from all over all the time !!! redundant boring !!! there, i've said it at least on one place besides that i appreciate hearing fellow Jewish/Israeli believers sharing /voicing their views... refreshing ~ shalom shalom kol tuv !

Baptism is not just a ritual. We are commanded to be baptized for the remission of sins (Acts 2:38). It IS part of being "Born again". Buried with HIM in baptism.

[@kdmdlo]

Thuribles burning incense, an alter for sacrifice, an ever-present sanctuary candle, ringing of bells, a tabernacle, a priest offering the sacrifice, chanting prayers ... all grew directly and naturally out of Judaism and into christianity.

[@annettetrujillo147]

I have a question the is off topic , I need the feel to ask! If I am not Jewish by birth , can I attend your worship being a gentil?

Yes! The congregation where Sam & Dr. Tom are elders (and the rest of the Grafted team attends) is made up of Jewish and Gentile members.

Dr. Tom and many in our congregation use the Tree of Life translation. It was done by a team of scholars and maintains a Jewish sense throughout. There are many tools available online if you're interested in Hebrew and Greek studies. blueletterbible.org has may tools including interlinear tools for free!

I've been baptized twice - 2 different religions - does that count? Both in the name of the Father, Son and Holy Ghost. Does it matter what religion baptizes you?

[@perfectpeace00]

What were the 2 religions? Do you mean denominations? As long as it is the name of Father, Son, Holy Spirit in reference to Yahweh and Yeshua.

[@kristiecobb1652]

@@perfectpeace00 Episcopal and LDS. Definitely both Christian. Thanks!

[@reginapontes5672]

Actually, if baptised in a denomination of the Catholic/Christian faith then the answer is no. For instance if you were Protestant baptised and converted to Catholicism, during the Easter vigil you'd get the anointing but no need to be baptised again. Once you're baptised, that's it. 😊

[@edenalexandriab9120]

Keep strong. Dont forget that despite the evil in this world, God is full of justice, mercy and love. Justice said we broke His perfect law - causing the world's previous perfection to be destroyed - and therefore we deserve Hell (like a punishment in any legal system but this is eternal as His perfect law is eternal too). Don't think you fit in that category? Ever done one of these?: lying, stealing - regardless of how small the object EVER, hating others - which is murder in God's perfect law, lusting (plus God sees our entire thought life). Justice says "the soul that sins shall die" - if we break one in thought/word/deed it's as if we're guilty of all of them. Quite simply, living by the law (which is doing everything perfectly) is impossible for sinful humans . The law shows us that 1. We will die in Hell if we fail to follow it and 2. We cannot save ourselves BUT, 3. God's perfect, immovable law points us to Christ, who followed and fulfilled the law in thought, word and deed perfectly in our place. He did what we couldn't and did it on our behalf. He was then sentenced to death on a cross, and took our personal punishment for our sin, paying our penalty (like paying our fine) completely FOR us, and has given us freedom. If we turn from the sins we have committed and repent (pursue the opposite direction of love through Christ) He will, overtime, recreate us into His image through The Holy Spirit which Jesus sends to all who accept Him as their personal Lord and Savior of their life. We cannot purify ourselves, but Christ lived that perfect sinless, pure life and then allotted it to our "account". That's where our righteousness comes from. Not from any good, works that you or I could do. It is not based on the amount of good works we do. God starts the changes, He carries it on, and He completes it in those who let Him. It's about letting Christ in to guide and teach you and obeying Him, again, through His power and instruction). He is our substitute in His life, death and resurrection. He essentially rewrote history in our place so that, if you believe in Him, it will be as if YOU had never sinned if you accept Christ's death as our own in our place. He is in Heaven right now preparing a place for us so that He can take His faithful, believing children home with Him when He returns. He will ressurrect us from death when He returns, giving mercy to those who accept His love, forgiveness, instruction and teachings in their life, and give justice to those who refuse it. He doesn't want ANY of us to go to Hell and die for continuing in evil and rejecting His way to life, thats why He died FOR us. Hes giving EVERYONE a chance, He wants everyone to take the free gift of salvation from Hell. He wants us to be His and begin to follow His life of love and service through His power and abiding (staying) with Him. So long as we keep our hearts near to Christ through His strength, strive to follow His will of perfect love revealed in the Bible, and let Him lead in the midst of (very certain) pitfalls and struggles, we will, in time, win the ultimate victory over sin, pain and DEATH through Christ. Even if you are willing to be made willing, pray for Jesus to come in and He will do what we can't. Give us The Holy Spirit who will guide us in the right way. NOTE: You are NEVER too sinful or messed up that God cannot turn your life around through Jesus. EVER If you have any questions let me know xx I have told you these things, so that in Me you may have [perfect] peace. In the world you have tribulation and distress and suffering, but be courageous [be confident, be undaunted, be filled with joy]; I have overcome the world.” [My conquest is accomplished, My victory abiding.] John 16:33 - Amplified Bible
