Cardinal: Christ DIDN'T Die for the Jews

Christians believe that Christ is a "new way" of salvation, Curia Cardinal Kurt Koch claimed in a September 3 letter to Rabbi Rasson Arousi, but - according to him - this does not mean that the Mosaic Law is "no longer recognised [by whom?] as the 'way of salvation for Jews'."

With this false statement, Koch tried to fix a row which erupted when Francis stated on August 11, that the Mosaic law “does not give life” but only Christ saves. This fundamental Christian teaching which is solidly attested in the Old and New Testament, incited Arousi's ire.

Koch let himself be carried away into cheap polemics by saying that Francis was not "returning to a doctrine of contempt" - as if proclaiming Christ to the Jews would hold them in "contempt." The insult consists in Koch's premiss that the Church is a Jew-free area, and Jews should live in a Christ-free ghetto.

Vatican to Jewish Rabbis: Old Mosaic Law is “Way of Salvation for Jews” . Never mind Acts 4:12, that was a different historical context.

This erroneous statement by the Cardinal is as malicious as when a presumed "Christian" claims that ALL Jews are globalist deniers of Jesus Christ

The truth is, that it is not their fault!

I can explain my statement. I have recently discovered that It is not apparent to C20th Jews that our Lord fulfils over 500 Old Testament prophecies, since some malicious scribe has deliberately reworded the countless prophecies in the Jewish Tanakh (Our Old Testament) so that they can not be seen clearly as pertaining to Jesus.

There have been many errors (maliciously) sown into their Tanakh - somebody OBVIOUSLY AWARE THAT CERTAIN TEXTS ARE CLEARLY REFERRING TO JESUS CHRIST has deliberately mistranslated them

Here is just one example Compare the Translations of the Christian Bible for Psalm 22:16 a well known prophecy of the Crucifixion of their Messiah, This is the Psalm that Our Lord recited from the Cross.

Literal Standard Version
And You appoint Me to the dust of death, For dogs have surrounded Me, A company of evildoers has surrounded Me, Piercing My hands and My feet.

JPS Tanakh 1917
For dogs have encompassed me; A company of evil-doers have inclosed me; Like a lion, they are at my hands and my feet.

biblehub.com/psalms/22-16.htm

Dead Sea Scrolls
16 For dogs have surrounded me.
A company of evildoers have enclosed me.
They have pierced[2] my hands and feet.

NB The (2) is a footnote on the DSS text, that there is controversy as regards the text on the Scrolls and the present translation shown in The Hebrew Bible . The footnote (2) says that the word on the Scrolls in "Pierced" It is translated as "Lion" in the Tanakh. the Translator says, to turn the word "Pierced" (as it says in the Scrolls) into "Lion" as it is translated in the Hebrew Bibles - a letter has been added that does not appear in the scrolls.

Another example - just one of many O'T Prophecies.....

Zechariah 12:10 (A Trinitarian passage because "The Word" (The Old Testament Christ) and "God the Father" both speak together.

New International Version
“And I will pour out on the house of David and the inhabitants of Jerusalem a spirit of grace and supplication. They will look on me, the one they have pierced, and they will mourn for him as one mourns for an only child, and grieve bitterly for him as one grieves for a firstborn son.

JPS Tanakh 1917
And I will pour upon the house of David, And upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, The spirit of grace and of supplication; And they shall look unto Me because they have thrust him through; And they shall mourn for him, as one mourneth for his only son, And shall be in bitterness for him, as one that is in bitterness for his first-born.

biblehub.com/zechariah/12-10.htm

Dead Sea Scrolls
10 I will pour on David’s house, and on the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the spirit of grace and of supplication; and they will look to me whom they have pierced; and they shall mourn for him, as one mourns for his only son, and will grieve bitterly for him, as one grieves for his firstborn.
dssenglishbible.com/zechariah 12.htm

Isaiah 53 - In the Tanakh is more or less exactly the same in Jewish and Christian Bibles.
yhwh-qra.com/isaiah-49-58.aspx

However, it is never read in Jewish Liturgical Readings and is avoided.
bju.edu/…heology-in-3d/how-do-orthodox-jews-read-isaiah-53/


Unfortunately, many Modern Jews are not aware that this fraudulent mis-translation has been taking place.

Unless they....a) learn of the prophecy, b) realise it is frankly differing in their translation, and c) then rush to check the Dead Sea Scrolls versions

They may NEVER know!

“Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.” 14 How then can they call on the One in whom they have not believed? And how can they believe in the One of whom they have not heard? And how can they hear without someone to preach? 15 And how can they preach unless they are sent? As it is written: “How beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news!”…

Amen!

Romans 10:14

It's a blasphemy and heresy. The Eucharist is the Sacrament and the Sacrifice of the New and Eternal Law and has nothing to do with Jews or Jewishness. Like Vatican II pseudoecumenists you try to find "the Jewish Roots" of the living God.

Our Lord created an awful lot of rituals during the Old Testament . Since He creates perfectly, He never errs, which is why the orthodox RC spiritual practices are so reminiscent of authentic Judaism as it was practiced during the days of the Old Covenant.

Since you are Catholic, take a look at the book of Ezekiel around 32 onward, and read the occasional regulations being laid down by the Lord through the following chapters. Our Lord's instructions as to how Priests are to behave before, during and after their Liturgical Worship. It is strict adherence to those Old Covenant liturgical norms that the Traditional RC Priesthood remains so pious and the none Traditional Priests give the impression (when you read the norms for Priests in the Old Testament) that they are not following the rules laid down by God to a high enough degree.

We use Bread in our Sacred Rites because during the Old Covenant, they did also. The. Eucharist offering, stems from the Old Testament, in many ways. The "bread of the presence" ( Bread upon which the presence of God rested) was placed in the Temple in Jerusalem, prepared fresh daily and placed before the Lord at all times. God transformed PERFECTLY and SEAMLESSLY HIS Old Covenant practices Into a New Covenant. However, the New Covenant Eucharist contains the literal body of Christ, and is miraculously now the LIVING Manna from Heaven, and the Old Covenant Bread and wine liturgical ritual celebrated by Melchizadek remains also. yet is transformed into the literal body of Our Lord (since Christ, Our High Priest is a Priest FOREVER akin to Melchizadek)

These were all Jewish rituals - which are transformed by their Creator, GOD, into His New Covenant. The reason we have Benediction is because the Manna received by the Israelites was placed within the Tabernacle in the Desert and venerated in a golden Chalice. The Chalice was veiled and taken through the camp as the faithful looked on in awe. Moses said as he carried the Manna "Behold God's LOVE for you!" The origins of Eucharistic Benediction today.

To exhibit such fear that Roman Catholicism is by necessity a religion with a firm foundation in authentic Jewish practices and rituals is wrong to be quite honest. The entire CHURCH stems from the Old Testament - that is why only the Traditional Roman Catholic Church IS the New Covenant Temple of Christ. , That video explains why Catholics worship in the way they do. It explains why we are not Protestants. Since God is True, and doesn't err, practices of the Old Covenant could never be cast aside - but are instead, Transformed.

A certain hatred comes across in some people's communications which claim that our Holy Church has a God who was not the same God who was worshiped by His people the Jews. A pretty strange approach for a Jewish Messiah is it not? Christ was born amongst the Jews, He spoke to the Prophets - you can read His words throughout the Old Testament. He transformed the Old Covenant which is why everything within the RC Church has Jewish Roots.

It's nonsense to feel hostility towards the Jewish Roots of our Faith. It;s resentment. A hatred/fear/Jealousy that obviously doesn't originate in Christ because He was Jewish. so are the roots of our Catholic Faith.

Enjoy the Blessed Sacrament - if you see the above video - you'll see It transforms THOSE practices of the Old Covenant, which were not abrogated, merely transformed into His New Covenant.

1) A sin offering to the Jews was a slain Lamb - which took upon itself the sins of the penitent . It was a ritual carried out by the Priest in the Temple. That was the OLD Covenant Lamb of atonement. Christ destroyed the Jewish Temple, as He is FOREVER the only acceptable sin offering - His Sacrifice is renewed and re-enacted every day in Mass.. St John the Baptist identified Him as "Behold the Lamb of God who taketh away the Sins of the World"

2) The Passover Lamb. In order to fulfill the Passover you HAVE to eat the Passover Lamb, Christ IS the Passover Lamb, He died on the Jewish Feast of Passover. The reason Easter is not celebrated on April 13th (the known date of death of our Lord) is because Catholicism follows the Old Covenant Feast Day of the Jews, Check this - each year the Jewish Feast of Passover, is also our Good (sometimes Traditionally "God" Friday. That is why the Orthodox Church is incorrect to make Easter independent of the Biblical instructions for the annual date of Passover found within the Bible. Our Easter occurs each year upon the exact same date as the Passover of the Jews. Announcing that Our Lord IS their Passover Lamb.

3) He is the Living Manna

4) He is the Bread of the Presence that was kept in the Temple

All this is shown and discussed on the above video - it is clear that the Temple of Christ is rooted firmly within the Practices and Ritualistic Traditions of the Jewish Old Covenant.

"To exhibit such fear that Roman Catholicism is by necessity a religion with a firm foundation in authentic Jewish practices and rituals is wrong"
"practices of the Old Covenant could never be cast aside"

is a judaizing heterodox and - yes - even heretical (cf. e.g. Ex quo primum of Benedict XIV, Leo the Great - De passione Domini, sermones III, VI, VII) baloney. In particular there is no "Jewish necessity" of the Catholic Faith that naturalists and modernists (of cloaca maxima of different heresies) claim.
And heretical videos I do not watch.

Therefore, please end your scandalous, naturalist statements, e.g. " the Jewish Roots of our Faith" that offend greviously us Catholics.
The roots of our Faith are supernatural and heavenly not Jewish, Roman or whatever earthly nation.

Concerning the origin of Christ - ""doesn't originate in Christ because He was Jewish. so are the roots of our Catholic Faith."
No sane Catholic before the Vatican II would have said that "Christ was Jewish" - cf. how the Creed or St. Paul describes Him (the latter: "Whose are the fathers, and of whom is Christ, according to the flesh, who is over all things, God blessed for ever. Amen." (Romans 9,5)
"Wherefore henceforth, we know no man according to the flesh. And if we have known Christ according to the flesh; but now we know him so no longer" (2 Cor 5,16)).Such statement would be deemed scandalous and favouring christological heresies.

-"Enjoy the Blessed Sacrament - if you see the above video - you'll see It transforms THOSE practices of the Old Covenant, which were not abrogated, merely transformed into His New Covenant."
To hold that the Sanctissimum - Real and Substantial Christ is a mere transformation of Jewish practices is heretical and, as I said above, blasphemous. Your claim is a naturalist mistake of causal relationships - you confuse the cause (including the First Cause) with the effect:
E.g. the manna was given to the Jews because of the Blessed Sacrament (as a prefiguration) not the Blessed Sacrament was given because of the manna (and Moses benedictions upon it and so on). Moreover, the manna was heavenly not Jewish (and on the earthly level as the said prefiguration was more Catholic than Jewish).
It's a very pernicious error of today. When you fall into that pit you will dare to say a lot of baloney e.g.:
"Moses said as he carried the Manna "Behold God's LOVE for you!" The origins of Eucharistic Benediction today."

PS "A certain hatred comes across in some people's communications which claim that our Holy Church has a God who was not the same God who was worshiped by His people the Jews"
---
Yes, "was worshipped" by "His people" who after the death of Christ on the Cross found their place as apostles and faithful of His Catholic Church. Take notice that the main group who dares to rise such a claim are Jews of today. They claim there is no Old Testament (because it implies the New One).

Not all Jews follow the Talmud, bigot-boy. You and E. Michael Jones always forget that. Also, Judaism existed BEFORE Christ and continued AFTER Christ for centuries BEFORE Talmud was compiled. Mainstream Judaism absorbed the Talmud after Christ's death just as Catholicism absorbed the writings of St. Paul after Christ's death.

All the 500 or so clear prophecies that are (obviously) fulfilled in Jesus, have been deliberately altered, Condemn the people who maliciously corrupted them if you want to.

However, Our Lord realised that certain people would see that the countless prophecies of Him would be corrupted, and that is obviously why He saw to it that the Dead Sea Scrolls were set aside in caves, to be unearthed in order to help the Jews during this era. The DSS have confirmed to Roman Catholics that our Bible is accurate, but more importantly, they stand as valid testimony to the Jews that their own Scriptures are the ones that have been maliciously adjusted so that no-one reading them has any idea who Jesus is.

As Luther somewhat re-created Our Lord, a similar attempt was made within Judaism, - to recreate their Messiah

We seem to be sitting on a gold mine, that none-denominational Scriptural Scholars are salvaging. It's best possibly not to confuse this gold with "mere dirt under our feet" They do not apostatize until they know the truth and refuse to submit to it.

@Ultraviolet Thanks for your comment. God Bless you. A common error is that people misquote Apoc/Rev 3:9 They say that Christ refers to ALL Jews as being "The Synagogue of Satan" That's not what the Text says. The passage says that there are people who say they are Jews BUT ARE NOT - it is those that Christ calls" the Synagogue of Satan."

So,when Christ mentions the Jews who THINK they are Jews, but are in reality "The Synagogue of Satan" He is speaking of those people presumably Jews who have discovered that He is their Messiah and are trying to destroy the evidence that supports it. ie Those who deliberately lie and eradicate those passages within their Bible Translations that PROVE without a shadow of a doubt that Jesus truly IS the fulfilment of the Prophecies within Scripture. Also the Banking/Globalist/Political types who either call themselves "Jews" or "Roman Catholics" Rev 3:9 no doubt relates to the Joe Biden's, Nancy Pelosi, and Francis' of this world also..

Those numskulls who Christ refers to "The Synagogue of Satan". are clearly a different set of people to the Israeli's who are to be seen BEING instructed in the above videos. Give people the TRUTH and they evaluate it. BUT they must hear the truth first! I just watched the conversion story of a former Jewish man. He was told by his Grandmother not to read the New Testament as the people who wrote it hated and persecuted Jews. He said that he thought Jesus was an Italian. After speaking to a born-again Christian he discovered that Jesus was Jewish and not Italian. He may one day join the RC Church if he enters stage two of his conversion. It seems the Born-Again lot found him since we were not looking!

With corrupted texts - (apart from Isaiah 53 which seems to have been only slightly corrupted) how on earth would anyone ever find Christ in the Jewish Tanakh! Mind you, a lot of Jews upon reading the text "Like a Lion (they gnaw) My hands and feet" HAVE looked into the potty translation in Psalm 22 and learned that some scam is being practiced on them when they compare it with the translation of Psalm 22 in the dead sea scrolls. However, more are more likely to seek instruction of their Rabbi (as we would Our Priest) and enquire of him what the passage means. Having seen for myself the explanations of some of the Rabbis, It becomes obvious that they are akin to those that St Stephen addressed in the Book of Acts. St Stephen,has been known for 2000 years as the first Catholic Martyr.He was a greek speaking Jew who lived as all Christ's first Disciples, the life of a faithful Jew in Jerusalem. He believed in Christ and was martyred, a Deacon of the Church in AD 33

“You stiff-necked people! Your hearts and ears are still uncircumcised. You are just like your ancestors: You always resist the Holy Spirit!" Acts 7:51

biblehub.com/acts/7-51.htm

Take time to view the above videos Ultraviolet. It becomes obvious that we have a job to do! See none-Catholic evangelists aping St Anthony of Padua attempting to convert people in Israel. No-one has proved to those street-evangelicals that Our Lord founded a True Church. Yet they stand there fearlessly in a potentially dangerous street, seeking to convert people - obviously quite willing to be martyred?

"Condemn the people who maliciously corrupted them if you want to."
---
Neither I nor the Church has been caring of the corruption inside the false religion. The Jews were always the point of missionary activity of the Church not the anathemas which were ecumenical e.g. pointed to those belonging to the House (of God). However, they were becoming the point of interest for the Magisterium, bishops and the Inquisition whenever they started to judaize or, whenever the members of the Church started to spread the poison.

"However, Our Lord realised that certain people would see that the countless prophecies of Him would be corrupted, and that is obviously why He saw to it that the Dead Sea Scrolls were set aside in caves, to be unearthed in order to help the Jews during this era."
---
The brand new better revelation? Or the Newer and Better Testament? Our Lord provided to the Jews all prophecies and signs necessary to recognize Him as true Messiah which is explicitly confirmed by Him in the Gospels. The Revelation ended with the last of the Apostles and was entrusted to the Church. The rest is a mere human, non-Catholic speculation typical for pseudo-apocalyptic sects of turbulent times or neo-gnosticism.

"As Luther somewhat re-created Our Lord, a similar attempt was made within Judaism, - to recreate their Messiah"
---
Judaism rejected their Messiah. The rest of the long (over 2000 year) false judaism story is looking for substitute i.e. false messiahs. The last attempt - a kind of mockery of the Christ sacrifice - is the collective messiah of so-called Holocaust (sacrifice).

"We seem to be sitting on a gold mine"
---
We are sitting in the treasury of gold. Nothing is hidden and all has been for 2,000 years ready to "be preached on the housetops". The problem is: people leave that treasury to search for mythical gold mines of (syncretic) king Solomon.
Another problem - I agree - is the missionary crisis in the Church (carefully planned and prepared by the "synagogue of Satan" as Pius IX calls freemasonry in his Etsi multa and their friends) in the era of the utmost easiness of communication. But where does a "wise" man hide the leaf of the Truth? In the forest of misinformation. And it is prevailing tactics of today.

"A common error is that people misquote Apoc/Rev 3:9 They say that Christ refers to ALL Jews as being "The Synagogue of Satan" That's not what the Text says. The passage says that there are people who say they are Jews BUT ARE NOT - it is those that Christ calls" the Synagogue of Satan." So,when Christ mentions the Jews who THINK they are Jews, but are in reality "The Synagogue of Satan" He is speaking of those people presumably Jews who have discovered that He is their Messiah and are trying to destroy the evidence that supports it."
---
St. John, author of the Apocalypse expands the above teaching in his 1st Epistle:
"I have not written to you as to them that know not the truth, but as to them that know it: and that no lie is of the truth. Who is a liar, but he who denieth that Jesus is the Christ? This is Antichrist, who denieth the Father, and the Son. Whosoever denieth the Son, the same hath not the Father. He that confesseth the Son, hath the Father also". (cf. also: John 5.23, 5.45-46, 3.18, 3.36, 15.22-23, Luke 10.16, 11.29-32, 20.17-18).
Ergo: most probably the "synagogue of Satan": people who think that they follow Moses and the Mosaic tradition (but in fact - they are in rupture with it by rejecting Christ) and who will be condemned even by the people of Nineveh. The second possibility: baptized Jews judaizing inside the local church.

@V.R.S Why can you not understand that your hostility would be a drawback to anyone converting to Roman Catholicism. You have painted a picture of the Church that is not true. Forever, God has been venerated through Bread and wine and Sacrifices offered to Him for the forgiveness of sins.. The NEW Covenant has altered the way these are offered since it is through Christ's Body and Blood that we gain Salvation and forgiveness of sins. This is very Jewish in itself and it should be explained to them. Anger, spite and full-thrown resentment is not a right approach. Neither is judging souls to be deliberately refusing to accept Christ! That can not be judged by us, to pass such a judgement is NOT our right. Only GOD knows things like that. We need to put personal views to one side and just seek to make people love Christ! Not hate Him! Many people who are Jews just need to be informed of the errors in their Scriptural Translations.

All within the Old Covenant has been bought to an end, but it HAS evolved into a new Covenant. Why don't you accept that millions of Jews are NOT Freemasons? Identically, some people unjustly say to us that all Roman Catholics worship Mary and are all going to Hell for denying Christ is the One true way to gain Salvation.. Neither statements are true.

Help Hebrews to understand. They need to know of the reasons why changes were made, Circumcision transformed into Baptism, Sacrificial Lambs into ONE Sacrificial Lamb sent by God. I agree that It would be a dire offence against God for a 3rd Temple to be built and offerings of Lambs be made when God has forbidden it since the Sacrifice of Christ is the only acceptable pure, perfect sin offering . And yes, Circumcision can not be received as the waters of Baptism are necessary within His New Covenant in order to gain eternal life However, . I do not agree with your attitude towards people who do not intentionally mean to dishonour God. You are prickly and discourteous to ME (who have never done anything to hurt you,) and I would prefer to be martyred than deny Christ . Yet you behave towards me your fellow Catholic as though it is a waste of time for you to be charitable to me - How can you convert and befriend none Christians especially the Jews - if you don't even convince me that I'm worthy! LOVE as well as true Doctrine converts people, and there are ways of explaining the New Covenant to those who definitely do not understand it and they must think you are not a nice person.
Apologies but anger is not the right approach to convert anyone.

Unfortunately, Dear Madam, nobody is able to help anyone convert to Roman Catholicism if his/her doctrine is not Catholic. More examples from your last comment:
- evolutionism and mobilism: "All within the Old Covenant has been bought to an end, but it HAS evolved into a new Covenant." (illogical - bringing to an end excludes a mutation or evolution) , "Circumcision transformed into Baptism,"
- modernism and naturalism: "Forever, God has been venerated through Bread and wine and Sacrifices offered to Him for the forgiveness of sins. The NEW Covenant has altered the way these are offered ", "Help Hebrews to understand. They need to know of the reasons why changes were made".
Again - you take an archetype or a prefiguration (as in case of the Melchisedeh offering or the circumcision) for the early stage of the evolution. The New Covenant was New (though prophetised and prefigured in the Old Testament) . Old offerings were abolished not altered. They were unsuccessful and could not bring atonement or forgiveness of sins. The new and clean sacrifice was prophetised by prophet Malachy (Mal 1,10 et seq. cf. also e.g. 1 Cor 10,20). I wonder how you can - as the Catholic:
- hold the sacrifice of Christ on the Cross and the Sacrifice of the Mass (where the Christ's Sacrifice on the Cross is made present) as the "alteration" of earlier unclean sacrifices,
- see the sacrament of Baptism - the sign of grace removing sins and cleansing the soul as the "transformation" of circumcision that removed only a small part of the body,
it seems that your soul is in a very grave danger.
Your antropological evolutionary stance is dangerously close to the modernist claim of evolution risen e.g. in the following statement condemned by St. Pius X in Lamentabili:
"Christian Doctrine was originally Judaic. Through successive evolutions it became first Pauline, then Joannine, finally Hellenic and universal."

"You are prickly and discourteous to ME "
---
I am not in mood to be courteous to anybody who does not take the opportunity to stop preaching non-Catholic opinions. In previous comments I referred to the errors, you attacked me with phony accusations and added... new erroneous statements.

"and they must think you are not a nice person"
---
Perhaps, because I'm from the Catholic Church of Nicea not from the modern church of the nice.

"there are ways of explaining the New Covenant to those who definitely do not understand it "
--
Certainly, teaching them errors does not belong to the above ways.

"Help Hebrews to understand [the evolution???]"
---
What are they supposed to understand? If they do not follow the prophets and accept the sign of Jonah they won't get anything else, Our Lord said.

To say that the New Covenant: " is very Jewish in itself and it should be explained to them"
would be a lie. Of course, the phase preceding the New Covenant can be called "very Jewish" - they got the Old Law to keep the faith in one God amidst waves of paganism, they got prophets to wait for and recognize the Messiah (whether they kept the above faith and respected the prophets was another question). They were told: the Messiah would come, not: go and evolve into the Messiah.
But (apart from the apostles and disciples) they were disappointed when the Messiah had come. The Messiah was not Jewish enough for them and their highest authorities decided to get rid of the Messiah. It did not solve the problem. His Apostles went to the ends of the earth preaching that He had ended the difference between the Jews and the goyim. That's the key point for years. If you do not convince them that there is neither Greek nor Jew all the missionary attempts will be futile.

To cut the long discussion short:
the "very Jewish" distorted version of Christianity is the way to judaize the Christians not to convert the Jews.

This much is certain. You aren't a Catholic no matter how many times you parade around in Church making mockery the Sacraments and defiling the Eucharist with your filthy bigoted sewer-hole of a mouth.

It's a natural outlet for the septic-tank you call a skull. But what a terrible place for the Body and Blood of Christ.

"How is it possible to practice Judaism without a Temple, priesthood and animal sacrifice?"

Every synagogue has become Temple, Rabbis are their priests, and Korban simply evolved.

'...that's why God allowed the Temple to be destroyed. Catholicism 101."

That's E. Michael Jones 101, not Catholicism, dummy. He doesn't speak for God, you don't speak for God and neither of you brainless bigots can quote Scripture where anyone speaking for God gave that as a reason.

"All you have is sophistry and ad-hominem attacks....yawn."

No, that's you, hoss. -not a good look for a cry-baby whose sensitive-snowflake feelings were SO hurt you were going to go to the police and complain about "cyber-bullying" and "harassment".

How does that square against cyber-bullying and harassment, Stevie? How indeed? Well, you better saddle up and ride right on down to yer local sherriff, pronto.

Go look up what ad hominem attacks actually are, dummy. Insulting you AFTER I've proven you wrong isn't "an ad-hominem attack".. Insulting you instead of proving you wrong would be.

And I rarely miss a chance to do THAT. :D. As usual, you're wrong, you have a big mouth, and both of them make a fool out of you again.

You should check what "sophistry" means, too. "D is for Dictionary" Steve D

It's ironic since, you people are always the ones screaming about "Jewish media censorship". But the moment a website gives you the slightest bit of power to censor other people, how ever ineffectively, you immediately do so. You can't handle an open exchange of ideas because you lose just like you've been doing here.

Denying the Son and having not The Father has no bearing on the sacrifice the Son made for those who deny Him.

Paul is predicting God's wrath for "both killed the Lord Jesus, and the prophets, and have persecuted us". at the final judgement (to the end). That doesn't change the fact they've been dead for 2000 years and it isn't Scriptural support for your anti-Semitic bigotry.

Genetic Fallacy. It isn't automatically wrong just because it comes from Pope Francis INB4 you call getting corrected "sophistry" again. Typical Goebbels trick. Repeat the falsehood.

"And yet despite that, they killed our Lord and continued persecuting Christians...even to this day."

Wrong. All Jews did not kill our Lord. A very specific group of Jewish leaders in one city did at one point. There were Jews all over Palestine at that time who never even met our Lord.

Likewise, all Jews don't continue persecuting Christians... even to this day. Go back to Stormfront, bigot-boy. Your garbage is just THIS easy to disprove. I'm not even needing citations at this point.

But they still consider themselves "chosen".

...and you just said they were, you half-wit. "The Jews were specifically chosen by God" Your words. Whoops.
