Now.
Are any things true? Yes

Do you have to weigh each statement? Yes.

The Revelation letters to the churches find / list good and bad points. We all must use care in what we accept.

We do not add to or take away from truth.

More anti-Gentile rhetoric? I mean, I've told you before that Lutherans study Hebrew/Jews and their ways so they aren't studying Gentile ways or notes.
There are anti Jewish tradition statements in what I have posted.

All have sinned.

So
Is this a Lutheran doctrine only website?

I do not seek to be an enemy of Lutherans.

I asked if this was a type of authority being accepted in this thread,

I did not know that we were using Jewish authority till I asked the question. He has not answered yet.

If it is the sole authority for this thread, then move it out of the Christian only area.

I hope I use only Christian Doctrine.

QUESTION: What is The Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod’s response to the anti-Semitic statements made by Luther?

ANSWER:
While The Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod holds Martin Luther in high esteem for his bold proclamation and clear articulation of the teachings of Scripture, it deeply regrets, deplores, and repudiates statements made by Luther which express a negative and hostile attitude toward the Jews.
.........
I am not against the Jews or Gentiles. There are warnings to both groups in scripture.

There are also scriptures that speak of the one new man made of Jew and Gentile.

Tell me where you want me to post about the biblical issues.

No, it's not Lutheran only but you come across as if you hate Gentiles and your comments are extremely condescending. Not all Non-Jewish people are ignorant of Hebrew/Jewish history. Just FYI.

This is a tangent and if you want to search out past threads here on the site about it, feel free.

John 13:25 ljv
25. He that loveth his life shall lose it; and he that hateth his life in this world shall keep it unto life eternal.

I lived a gentile life inside a Christian (?) household for 12 years. I came to know and hate what I was, and I then lived in repentance for 12years (knowing only John’s baptism). I accepted Jesus and lived a saved but powerless life (unable to witness) for more years. What happens to some people in 10 minutes took 26(?) years.

The agony of my life let’s me see some things a little differently.

The threads I do are not about me. I see what Paul is talking about.

I wonder how people deal with the Ezekiel
wheels within wheels.
Tangents in our thinking can begin to make sense. Opposing thoughts striking a central core belief in Christ Jesus that ultimately give strength, but only by depending on Him. Paul strove the more because of his history,

why am I sitting in someone else’s thread doing this?

I remember now. Getting into the eye of a needle requires you be small enough. Confessing sins brings you way down in size. Inflated puffed up pride in: wealth, knowledge, pride, national origin , etc keep you out of the eye.
Jesus is the way, door, etc..

What post number were we on?
Was I asking about the source of Jewish light traditions? The Pentateuch has lots of light mentioned. Let there be light. Seeing the eye of the needle helps thread it.

And there it is. Hatred of yourself because God didn't create you a Jew? Don't bring that hate here. God loves me.

Nope I am the sinner I hate.

God is good. He saw I needed help and sent his only begotten son to die for my sins.

The idea that Christianity Haven is for a specific denomination or doctrine is far from the truth.

An interesting aspect of seeing through the eye of the needle is that it has a visionary effect.
Both physically and spiritually

I wonder if the readers and yourself have ever experienced the effect?

Looking through the eye of the needle increased focus from my perspective.

Anyone else experience this in their life?

A single thread to many rings like breaths of life are shared with a single covenant or pole that is foreshadowed in Torah.

Blessings Always

Would it be possible to get a list of the spiritual things the prophets did? As if we were to view their actions looking back in time?
and
Would we see these things as an answer to your question about our experiences?
