Who rejects Christ's Jewishness? I'm curious about that. I see people make that claim but I never see anyone give proof that anyone is actually doing it.

The Lord Jesus Christ was an Israelite, a Jew by religion, but not a Pharisee nor a Sadducee, nor a follower of Rabbinic Judaism (that religion did not yet exist when the Lord trod the land of Judea), he was the founder of Christianity, the Christ.

Who attacks the "study" of the Feasts and Festivals? Can you please post some links of examples of specific people or groups that deny Christ's Jewishness for me? Christ is King of the Jews. I don't see Christians denying His Jewishness at all.

 

[psalms 91]

No I cant wade through old threads but I am sure Visionary can also attest to it as well and yes I have seen it and probably will again if the subject comes up

I haven't seen visionary around for a while.

Are you implying that Christians who insist it is not mandatory to celebrate feasts/festivals in order to be a Christian means that they reject Christ's Jewishness?

No buit many times I find that those who do so are opposed to anything Jewish and I dont remember anyone saying they are mandatory but however, if not studied and yes kept as a couple are commanded to be then yes I think thta much is lost to the person who refuses to acknowledge them.

I reject any notion that keeping Saturday as sabbath or celebrating Yom Kippur will make a Christian more pleasing to YHWH and not doing those things will make him/her less pleasing to YHWH. God is not pleased by legal observances of that kind. If he were then Christ need never have died.

Yet we are commanded to keep three feasts forever. Strange isnt it? It isnt done to keep the law but rather as an observance and a memerial that God says we should keep, not me, not the Jews, but God. If you have a problem with this then argue with Him

It was the Israelites that were commanded. Since I am not a natural descendent of the 12 sons of Jacob/Israel (as far as I know) and since my religion is not Judaism I feel no special obligation to follow the rules/laws laid down for them.

so be it although I dont see where God said just if you are Jewish, somehow that is left out of the scripture

You may not see it because you have not looked with sufficient care - see Ex 12.42; 27.21; 31.13; Lev 7.36; 23.41.

Now this doesn't make MoreCoffee one of those who makes Jesus less Jewish...or do you think it does, Bill?

Says the chap who wants every Christian to observe the feasts demanded by the law?

I can't help having a wry smile as I read your reply.

What do you mean by check the millenial and who keeps it?

 

[psalms 91]

In the milllenial all will keep those three feasts and if a country does not come to Jerusalem once a year they will be unmder a curse, it is all in Revelation
