Passover Celebration

[ManOfWord]

You're welcome!!!


After reading some disconcerting things regarding Jews in another place, it just reminded me of past historical injustices and rekindled an appreciation for OUR Jewish roots and heritage!

We're having a Seder Service tonight. We have 59 people signed up to come, but extras usually show up. It's a very moving service. And VERY interesting! My 17 year old nephew will be coming tonight for the first time. You could pray for him if you are so inclined. Thanks.

Can we eat those cute little Robin eggs for passover?

To them, convert, means to forsake their heritage, history, beliefs etc. To help Jews, you need, like Paul, to talk about fulfillment. I'm not saying they don't need saved. I'm only saying that they have been taught/programmed to believe that Christians want to get them to renounce their heritage and roots.

When you look at the history of the "christian" church, it doesn't have a very good track record of treating Jews kindly or with respect. No wonder they are leary.

If you want to begin to gain the respect of Jewish people, begin by thanking them for their love and respect of God's word and for preserving it for us for thousands of years. Tell them that if there ever is another attempt at a holocaust, they won't be alone or left standing by themselves!

Shema Yisroel!!!

I have a friend that's was a Jew. Her parents and sister live in Israel and she's been there a few times.

She was bapized in Jesus name a few years ago. We met through her corresponding with a minister about partial pretersim. She understands much of the allegory in the Bibe due to her heritage and has a good knowledge of OT scripture concerning the convenants of Moses and Abraham.

Paul said himself that the Jews were the oracles of God. My friend says though that Jews are very much against Christians and are adamant that the Messiah has not yet come.

That is awesome!! May the Lord of Passover touch your son's heart in a profound way and may he give himself to the Deliverer, our passover Lamb!!!

We held our passover Tuesday. It is a yearly thing we have done since 2003. We have approx 60-70 people come (10 tables). We go through the Seder with a powerpoint teaching and share the gospel of true biblical salvation when we partake of the "cup of redemption." After having instituted the Pesach, our church would never desire to go back to Easter again. No comparison.

Right, it's from the word paschal

That is absolutely awesome!!!! Once you have celebrated Passover, "juice and a cracker" seems so anticlimactic.

And... indicative of the modern 'church'...
