    We live in a time when they want us to keep our faith within the 4 walls of our homes and churches.

    Here is a refreshing viewpoint from a Jewish Journalist.

    Yes, WS, that fourth point is a good one.

    I hope he knows though that our behavior will not be judged in the same way as our Faith.

    Faith is necessary for salvation and good behavior is necessary for rewards.

    In the first point, thie Jewish man begins with, Since all non-Christians are unsaved---

    That is what makes me wonder if he has become a Christian. Without giving up his Jewishness.

    Am I the only one who sees that?

    I read that bit, and didn't really think much of it. The author says that he is a "practicing, believing Jew," and I find it fully believable that he could be talking about the belief "within the context of the myth," as some non-Christians like to call it, that non-Christians are unsaved. I suppose he could be talking about his Jewishness in a cultural way, but I didn't get that impression. Although, when he says "believing" he could mean "a believer in Christ" - I'm not clear.

    I agree with him - I find it absurd when some non-Christians say things like "They can believe whatever they want to believe as long as they don't try to get me to believe it." I mean, really. If spreading the gospel is part of being Christian (and it is), then how can you say that it's okay to be Christian as long as you don't do what we, as Christians, are commanded to do? Rubbish.

    The author had some valid points but overall, he is still an unsaved Jew. Upon his last breath, if he does not accept Christ as his Saviour, he will be in eternal hellfire.

    What I get out of the article is for us Christians to stand firm in our Faith, knowing the Truth that is only found in Christ Jesus.

    We have the answer to lifes problem of sin. We should not keep it to ourselves. All people need to hear the gospel, even the Jewish community.

    :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

    Tentmaker, would you believe I posted that testimony and did not even see those Christian links below.

    I just assumed it was an advertisment that some web sites have to save expenses.

    I just got this off the web because I heard Dr. David Reagan read it on an archived radio program.

    http://lamblion.com/Web14-00.htm

    I then found the article on Google search and copied the link.

    I believe this Christian Ministry did what I did and put it on their website.

    Dennis Praeger is a newspaper columnist.

    God Bless!

    I agree with T.N.R. on this one, he still needs the Blood of Christ.
