On Feb 14, 2000 - I asked him to save me from Hell. I believe he never wanted me to forget so it was Valentine's Day, which is a day meant to Love Someone, which My Father in Heaven did. Best decision I ever made.

David,
You are a Christian. Stop this evil and deceptive form of missionizing. It degrades Christianity.

. It is, by definition, impossible for it to be "jewish" to believe in jesus. "Jewish" is, by defintion, what jews have historically and contemporarily believe. Since in neither scenario do we find "believing in jesus", then we must clearly realize that belief in jesus is not something "jewish". You can call it "biblical" (and still be wrong), but certainly not "jewish".
. On the side, the subject of Isaiah 53 is promised a "long life" and "seed" (i.e. physical children). Clearly this isn't about jesus.
. And Isaiah 7 is clearly not messianic if you read the whole chapter. and "alma" doesn't mean virgin either. You'd know that if you spoke hebrew (I guess learning basic hebrew wasn't part of your "extensive jewish upbringing", huh?)
. On the side, Isaiah 9 can't be about jesus since, according to christianity, he's the "son" not the "father" (as the verse states). Nor did he have control of the government (to the contrary, the roman government killed him). And he certainly did not establish "endless peace".

oh, and lastly, I've decided that you truly epitomize everything I find intensely intellectually unsatisfying about christianity.

Amen brother. BTW, regarding the debate between Jews / Judaism....let us remember that Jesus Himself was a Jew as were many of the apostles. And, of course, to insinuate that one is born into a belief system is pretty crazy, is it not? Imagine if all people from another race or nationality were assumed to be of a particular faith?
Furthermore, the Bible tells us, "There is neither Jew nor Greek, slave nor free, male nor female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus. If you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise.” In fact, Paul even wrote, "Not all who are descended from Israel are Israel…it is not the natural children who are God’s children, but it is the children of the promise who are regarded as Abraham’s offspring.”
Shalom. And God Bless!

Seriously, why do you ask virtually the exact same question over and over (AND OVER AND OVER AND OVER) again, and again, and again, and again, and again? Why? Why? Why? Why?
