Re: Your thoughts on the Tallit prayer shawl.

It seems to me that it is a continuation of a trend, that has been prevalent for many years. It is considered anti Semitic to say that Jews are no more holy than say Irish Protestants.

As Gentile Christians we are led to believe we are second class citizens in the kingdom of God. We are the step children. The Jews have the favorite son status. So, we try to act like Jews. We are wannabe Jews.

So? We should wear the covering? Blow the shofar? I love the Jews. And if you want to blow the shofar in worship to Jesus, be my guest.

But the irony isn’t lost on me either. Blowing the shofar in order for be more Jewish is ironic indeed. Trying to be more Jewish? When they rejected Him? And continue to do so?

The Jews need evangelizing, just like other nonbelievers! A question:

When Jesus said that “the only way to the Father is by me”. Who was he talking to? Think about it.





The Jews.

If there is no heat in the church, it sounds like a good idea, but I am not sure if anyone has looked around lately, but we are in the New Covenant, and we need not look at what God brought His people out of, as we are to leave other religions where they belong.

I was in a church not too long ago, and one of the guys in the church started blowing a shofar during the worship service. *smh*

So let’s be just a little Hebrew Roots. If a little Hebrew Roots does a little good, wouldn’t a lot of Hebrew Roots do a lot of good?

It has been my experience, that a doctrine will be made of it.

It has also been my experience, that some money will be made from it.

And in twenty years we’ll be looking back on it saying, Remember when we were blowing shofars and wearing Tallit prayer shawls in church?

Oh yeah. That was Brother __________ that came through preaching that. Didn’t he go “charismatic”?

Its suppose to help pray the promises of God as a covering I think.
