Jews: How difficult is it for you to know God?

Question

I always had a heavy heart for completed Jews. My parents taught me that it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a Jew to know God. They told me how when a Jew turns his life over to Jesus his family disowns him and they loose contact. So when a Jew becomes a completed Jew and stops wondering loss in the desert it is a really joyous and special occasion. God bless the completed Jews who have been wondering in the desert for centuries trying to find their God soon to realize that the Jesus their ancestors put to death, who arose from the dead and ascended into Heaven is God.

Answer 1

I already know G-d without the use of your idol. So thanks but no thanks. Your parents were wrong--we knew G-d for thousands of years before your idol was ever born! They missed that bit of logic, didn't they? Duh.

G-d bless the people who leave us to be Jews in peace.

(by the way, your illogical parents misquoted your idol. He said "It is easier for the camel to pass through the eye of the needle than it is for the rich to get into heaven.")

So they twisted his words because they hate Jews. Hm.

Answer 2

Congratulations to your parents. They are masters of indoctrination! I suggest that you respectfully tell your mommy and daddy that they have been woefully misinformed.

What is your explanation for why Jews exist to this day in spite of 2000 years of persecution and attempted annihilation by Christians? Can it be anything other than a miracle? Have you ever wondered why the Jewish Covenant with God includes rewards for all people with punishment of only a short period of cleansing, while the Christian Covenant restricts "heaven" to "believers" and condemns "non-believers" to eternal torment. This is the God you refer to as the "kind and loving" God? I'll take my God of Justice and wisdom any day of the week!

The messiah will be a great human leader -- not God Himself. The belief that God would become human is the ultimate heresy!

Answer 3

If you knew that much you'd know how close Jews really are to God. Ever read the Old Testament? Do you know the heritage of Jesus?

Do you know God is love?

Answer 4

I'm sure your feelings are genuine. However, I have no need for Jesus to know G-d. I have a Jewish path to the Divine which simply isn't yours but which is every bit as real.

And by the way--anyone who believes in Jesus as the messiah is not Jewish. Period. They can call themselves whatever *they* want--"Jews for Jesus", "completed Jew", "Messianic Jew"--but they're the only ones who think they're Jewish in any way, shape or form.

Answer 5

First of all, don't misquote Yahshua. 'It is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than a RICH MAN to enter into heaven.' Doesn't matter if the rich man is jew or gentile.
Anyway, I am a believer in Yahshua and am grafted into the JEWISH vine, however, I do not follow Talmud(Judaism). I follow the Torah/Tanakh and the New testament, and THAT is how I know God. And I know a number of Jews who are like me, and are living in Israel now. They are a blessing.
BTW the Jews did not kill Yahshua, He gave Himself willingly. He said Himself that He could call a myriad of angels to protect Him, but didn't. I hope you learn to KNOW your Messiah better. :-)

Answer 6

Thou shalt have no other gods before me

Thou shalt not make for thyself an idol

You broke 2 commandments

Answer 7

My Gosh! Where do you think you would be, if the Jews had not rejected Jesus??? You would still be a heathen gentile with no hope. Your parents are likened to Hitler (haters of Jews), who would teach their children such hateful lies.

Answer 8

Aren't Jews God's oldest friends? You johnny-come-lately Christians don't have anything like the same claim. Sit quietly on the sidelines and see if God invites you into the conversation.

Answer 9

first of all stop using the term "completed jew" there is no such thing, its offensive to jews, to the former-jews who have converted to christianity, and to God.

its not hard at all for jews to know God.

you know that heightened holy elation that you feel sometimes when you have a spiritual experience? ... that happens most of the time during jewish services.

Jesus is an idol, and the trinity is polytheism.

if Your God is unable to communicate with me unless he goes through a mediator, hes not worth my Devotion.
MY God WANTS to talk to me, WANTS to forgive me, and Loves me.

edit: also to clarify here... if a jewish person comes to belive in Jesus as God or the messiah, they have FORSAKEN their heritage, and BETRAYED THEIR GOD.

Answer 10

You're not talking about God, you're talking about some cult's perverted, warped image of the Jewish god.

As for how difficult it is to know God, it is as simple as reading the torah.

That being said, its extremely difficult, as God is extremely complex, and Jews say they find new information about God every time they read the torah.
