Judaism vs Christianity

[Blue Bird]

All right, a clarification, although I don't think it's necessary.

I didn't get through the whole thing. Rabbi Skobac despises Christians and doesn't hide it. I would not allow Christians to talk about Jews like that. The title could very well be "Recognize who your enemy is".

Blue Bird,

Thank you for clarifying, I really didn't understand.

Sorry you feel that way as I don't see Rabbi Skobac "despising" Christians. I do see him not agreeing with things that are written in the Christian bible and explaining it very openly as he sees it. There are many Christians who go to him to ask questions and he doesn't turn them away, insult or look down upon them.

In contrast, I just watched a video by a very well known and followed Christian preacher who definitely ridiculed the Jews.

I will not post links to Rabbi Skobac's videos if it offends you.

Did you not see the contrast though as to what he was saying about what the Christian bible teaches as opposed to what the Hebrew bible does? The difference in the overall message?

I could ask you more questions about specifics, but I think it best to leave it where it is.

It's possibly not wise to open that box again but I think we are grown people and can stop debating if anybody wants it.

I think it depends on the view someone has on the Hebrew and Christian bible. I've seen ethnic Jews, those who follow Judaism and believing Christians, who have many inner resistances in common. Somehow I understand it, somehow I don't.

My resistances were and are of a different kind, like accepting G‑d as Lord and so on. I see no difference between what the Christian Bible and the Hebrew Bible teach, and no difference at all in the overall message.

If you want to ask more specific questions, I would suggest discussing only one or two questions at a time.
