Could you point out where it is that I said I was Jewish?
God bless.
I didn't say you were specifically. I said IF...
But what about the weightier points in my post?

God bless.
And now you call Scripture twaddle.Then let me make it very simple for you...show where you proved anything.
I am not going to debate with someone that has only a consistent pattern of emotional responses that demand people embrace the twaddle they teach.
If my view is skewed, quote what is skewed.
I can't help it if you think you are going to chat your way into understanding the Word of God, nor will I refuse to present whatever amount of Scripture and points it takes to address what is so obviously in error.
God bless.
Funny how in your inability to accept a simple, straightforward line of Scripture you must then make up all manner of things as if I have to defend all the rationalisations and justifications you give to prop up your opinion while you continually and adamantly refuse to accept what is plainly stated. Why do you add to what Scripture says, and insistently add to what I have said and then demand I support what I have not said? You deviate terribly and stubbornly refuse to admit you are in error.So show Scripture that (1) teaches "God did not instruct Adam and Eve in regards to sin and sacrifice, and (2) how your doctrine nullifies something that threads it's way from the Garden to Calvary.
Were the coats of skins from animals...did animals die to cover their sin?
It's a very simple question.
God bless.
I did. You pretend nobody tries to correct you? You refuse correction, and then lie about it.If my view is skewed, quote what is skewed.

The LORD God made garments of skin for Adam and his wife and clothed them.
If you want to pretend that means they were made to sacrifice an animal or two or three or half a dozen as well as being instructed in the purpose of sacrifice to pay for their sin to point forward to the ultimate reality in the foreshadowing of Christ's sacrifice when none of that was revealed to us you are certainly free to do so, but when the revealed written Word of God tells me that God did something, I am going to agree with the Word of God and not your perversion of it.

That might explain that some on this site appear to be Barking!
Acts makes it clear there is a distinction between saved Jews and Gentiles. This has always been the case. Proselytization allowed Gentiles to be a part of worship of the One True God, but they did not lose their distinction as Gentiles.
Israel (aka Jews and the 'Northern kingdom', though by the time of Christ, they were all considered Jews and referred to as such by the writers of the New Covenant Scriptures), Gentiles, and the Body of Christ are the three groups.
The Jews are part of Israel. Two tribes; Judah & Benjamin. They are not all of Israel...
Excellent question.
In my view it would not only be incorrect, it would be contrary to what we are taught.
As Christians, we have only Biblical Doctrine to support our claim of being Christians.
There are a number of groups that call themselves Christians, and say they belong to Christ, yet they teach a Christ that is not found in Scripture.
So how do we distinguish between their doctrine and our own?
Do the Writers of Scripture present the image that Doctrine is a secondary issue in regards to obedience to God and being in relationship to Him?
God bless.
There are Twelve Tribes, not Two, and when they were divided there were Two Houses, Israel and Judah.
Would you show me the Scripture that you define Israel as Two Tribes by, Judah and Benjamin?
God bless.
It is interesting the translations of Judah and Benjamin. They both point directly to Jesus Christ, to the members of His Body, and to all of Israel who have these qualities.
I'll rephrase my statement: Jesus Christ is my Lord and Savior; everything is semantics.
God bless you also.![]()

Sorry if that came out wrong![]()
This only differentiates the natural born Jew with faith from the natural born Jew without faith...the former being the true Jew or remnant. See the context.In Romans 2 [COLOR=#333333 !important]28 [/COLOR]For he is not a Jew, which is one outwardly; neither is that circumcision, which is outward in the flesh:
29 But he is a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, and not in the letter; whose praise is not of men, but of God.
I will leave mine as originally given.
