Thank you for your comment. I appreciate ...Anders,<br /><br />Thank you for your comment. I appreciate other views, especially on the movie. In this case, I would disagree with you. The NT shows Jesus as offering forgiveness for sins to sinners. He lived the perfect sinless life, obeying Torah, and then was the perfect sacrifice for all who would have faith in him. Nobody else can obey Torah perfectly because all but Jesus were born tainted by sin. But in his death we are offered life. That is the thread that weaves through the whole NT.<br /><br />Blessings,<br />MartinMartinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01635841382544836698noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2678224310668359038.post-46250595378596253692010-01-01T08:11:55.491-08:002010-01-01T08:11:55.491-08:00Hello Martin!
You wrote: “To experience life and ...Hello Martin!<br /><br />You wrote: “To experience life and not death, we must place our faith in Jesus (Rom. 10:9-10; Jn. 10:10).” and I want to comment on that.<br /><br />Tan’’kh – for example Yekhëzqeil (Hezekiel) 18 – promises foregivness to those and only those who do their sincerest to keep the mitzwot (commandments) in Torah. The Creator cannot lie and He does not change (Malakhi 3:6)! A logical analysis (see www.netzarim.co.il) of the first centuries relevant documents proofs that Tan’’kh is in accordance with the teachings of Ribi Yehoshua ha-Mashiakh (the Messiah) from Nazareth.<br /><br />No human can keep Torah perfectly. There is a provision. Ribi Yehoshua ha-Mashiakh lived and kept Torah with the sincerest of his heart, died innocently and became a sacrifice. Because of this the Creator can give His foregiveness to everyone doing his/her sincerest to keep His instructions found in Torah, and to everyone turning away from their Torah-breaches to instead starting to do their sincerest to keep the instructions in Torah. <br /><br />Living in the above described way until one dies implies that the Creator will continue to give His forgiveness during one’s whole life, which will keep ones nephesh (psyche) in a connection with the Creator, which will lead to ha-olam haba (which Christians would call “heaven”). While not living in the above described way, according to Yekhezeqeil, won’t lead to ha-olam haba.<br /><br />Thus the NT-view you quoted above of being forgiven just by doing what Rom 10:9 says, contradicts the view in the Jewish Bible<br /><br />Regards, Anders BranderudAnders Branderudhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12590420531095058999noreply@blogger.com
