I am interested if the word "goyim" or "gentile", which means pagan, is used by Jews it in this particular meaning with regards to non-Jews.

I do not mean to hurt anyone and if I do I apologize in advance.
Many thanks to all those who answers.

Is the word "Bible" even in the scriptures? The Bible is a collection of books. People say those books were inspired by God. There are other books that didn't make it and people tell me they either weren't necessary, or were false doctrine, such as the gosple of Jesus when he says not to worship anyone, not even Him, but to conduct worship in the home according to his or her heart, as in worship how you like, and keep it out of everyone's face.
The books were selected by a vote in the Counsil of Narciea by the Cardinals. Doesn't that mean that even if the scriptures are created by God, the Bible is a creation of man? There are books mention in "accepted scripture" that don't appear in the Bible.
1 Kings 11:41 And the rest of the acts of Solomon, and all that he did, and his wisdom, are they not written in the book of the acts of Solomon?
Before you say "God wouldn't let the truth be lost," consider if the most widely accepted truth is always the right one.

Jesus spoke aramaic (ask your priest, or the Pope if you dont believe me), and God in aramaic is Allah.

Here is the proof, http://www.peshitta.org/ type in the word God, and the site will translate it into aramaic for you.

In the Garden of Gethsemane, Jesus put his face in the ground and postrated to Allah, who on earth is doing this today?

'Surely, they have disbelieved who say: "Allah is the Messiah ['Iesa (Jesus)], son of Maryam (Mary)." But the Messiah ['Iesa (Jesus)] said: "O Children of Israel! Worship Allah, my Lord and your Lord." Verily, whosoever sets up partners in worship with Allah, then Allah has forbidden Paradise for him, and the Fire will be his abode. And for the Zalimun (polytheists and wrong­doers) there are no helpers.' (Qur'an 5:72)

I would like to trust life more, to be less on guard, to turn some inner walls into bridges, to open up my heart, to dare be myself more, to be more true to myself, not to pretend to be someone I am not, to trust myself more, to depend less upon other people’s opinions, to be more compassionate, to forgive, to be less hard on myself and others, to drop judging, not to always look for flaws in others, not to talk behind people’s backs, to be more discrete about personal information (mine and other's),
to be more alive and passionate about life, to be more curious, to be committed to my own life, to find my passion and to work towards making my dreams come true, to avoid being prejudiced and narrow-minded, to keep an open mind, to be more careful with my words and actions, as every word and act is irreversible, not giving my word without thought, to be less self-centered, to find more meaning in my life, to be more creative, to feel better and more confident about myself

When I was about 25 years old I took over the holiday cooking, Easter, Thanksgiving, Christmas for my parents and in laws. Now my children are in their 20's and mom is still the one doing all the dinners. Do you think it would be rude of me to say "Ok kids, thats it, Easter is yours, I have done it for 27 years, I think it is about time to pass it on to the younger ones" Would it be cruel of me about 3 weeks before Easter to say, I don't know what your having for Easter because I am not doing it?

I was reading the Revelations book and it is clear that only Jewish people (by blood) can be saved.

Read the part of the 144,000 saved on Mount Zion: there are 12,000 from each one of the 12 tribes, they are all Jewish people by blood. They are the "just" and "martyrs" who are given white robes, the saved seed from all of humankind.

Does it mean Christians and all other religions are condemned to go to the Antichrist's side, no matter what?

After his birth we hear about him next in the Temples. What was he doing between the ages of 0-32. There's much Bible information about him but mostly about his birth and near his death. What was he doing which was not recorded in the Bible. There are other historical accounts of those times which are not widely known. Jokes and scepticism are fine but I know the Bible so no Bible stories. Thanks

Christians say Jesus is Allah's son, and Jews deny Jesus, John the Baptist and Zachariah

'The Jews said that the Christians follow nothing (i.e. are not on the right religion); and the Christians said that the Jews follow nothing (i.e. are not on the right religion); though they both recite the Scripture. Like unto their word, said (the pagans) who know not. Allah will judge between them on the Day of Resurrection about that wherein they have been differing.' (Qur'an 2:113)

'Say (O Muhammad SAW): "We believe in Allah and in what has been sent down to us, and what was sent down to Ibrahim (Abraham), Isma'il (Ishmael), Ishaque (Isaac), Ya'qub (Jacob) and Al-Asbat [the twelve sons of Ya'qub (Jacob)] and what was given to Musa (Moses), 'Iesa (Jesus) and the Prophets from their Lord. We make no distinction between one another among them and to Him (Allah) we have submitted (in Islam)." (Qur'an 3:84)
