Dear Santiago;

Consider the 6-day war. Severely out numbered the Jews with God's help were able to take Jerusalem in 6 days. On the seventh day they rested. Praise God that remembers even his most rebellious children. I am also a case in point.

Have a blessed day - DLL

"However, you must admit that most races that end up in different countries are
absorbed and become that race
after a time. After 2000 years, the Jews still exist"

There are two fundamental errors in your statement. First you erroneously
state that the Jews of today are race, and that they are descended from
Abraham. Secondly, you assume the modern Talmudic Judaism of today is
the same as the Temple Judaism of the Old Testament. Both the statement
and the assumption is wrong.

First of all, modern Judaism is not a race, but a religion. Your
contention that the Jews of today are the racial descendants of
Abaraham is absurd and clearly wrong. The Jews that have gone back
to Israel are a cross section of the racial background of Jews in the
whole world. When we look at the racial compostition of the Jews in
Israel today, we find that Jews are not a race but merely a religion.
There are black Ethiopian Jews, there are Indian Jews, there are semitic
Jews, there are nordic European Jews, there are Sephardic Jews and there
are Ashkenazic Jews. The overwhelming majority of Jews in Israel
today are Khazar Jews, approx. 90%. Since the Khazar Jews compose the
largest ethnic percentage in Israel, let us examine their racial or
ethnic background. The Khazars were converted to Judaism in the ninth
century A.D. and have becaome the dominant ethnic component of modern
Judaism. The Khazars are not racially descended from Abraham at all. There are
simply converts to the modern Judaism. Racially, the Khazars were
originally a mixture of Turkish, Mongolian and European. For the last
1200 years they have intermarried with the Eastern Europeans and
are almost indistinguisable from the Europeans.
The Jews of today have no genealogical records of their Abrahamic
heritage as did the racial Jews of the Old Testament.
Modern Judaism is a religion and not a race.
Modern Judaism possesses neither a racial claim nor a spritual claim
to the land in modern Israel.
------------------------

Now, let us move to the second point: Is modern Judaism the same
as the Old Testament Temple Judaism?


The answer is a clear NO.

Old Testament Judaism was a religion ordained and created by God.

The fundamental characteristics of Old Test. Judaism were:

1. A Levitical priesthood ordained of God.
2. An Aaronic high priesthood ordained of God.
3. A Temple planned and ordained of God.
4. Temple furniture reflecting God ordinances.
5. An Ark of the Covenant containing the symbols God's supernatural gifts to ancient Israel.
6. A Davidic kingship chosen and ordained by God.
7. Genealogical Tables assuring the lineage of the Jews, the priesthood and the Davidic kingship.
8. The Shekinah Glory in the the holy of holies in the Temple reflecting God's presence with Israel.

Modern Judaism possesses none of these characteristics because they
are in no way the religion of Old Testament Judaism. Modern Judaism
is a religion that was created after the Ressurection of Christ and
destrution of Old TEstement Judaism in 70 A.D.

The Corner Stone of modern Judaism is the rejection of Jesus Christ.
Modern Judaism has built its new religion upon this cornerstone and is
in no way the heir to the religion of the Old Test.
-------------------

All of the spiritual characteristics of Old Test. Judaism are found
in Jesus's Christian Church. The central characteristics of Old Test.
Judaism were shadows and types of the Christian Church that Jesus founded
upon his blood. The substance of Old Test. Judaism is found in
Christianity.

The main characteristics of Christianity are:

1. A priesthood of Christian believers.
2. The high Melchizedek preisthood of Christ as our eternal advocate.
3. A Temple of where the Holy Spirit lives--the hearsts of the Chrsitian People.
4. The Ark of the Covenant and the Temple furniture are represented by the Gifts of the Holy Spirit
that are given to each Christian when they are Born Again.
5. The Son of David is established as the eternal King that reigns in
every Christian heart. Jesus sits eternal on the throne of David.
6. All Christians trace their genelogy to Abraham through the genealogy
of Jesus contained in the Gospels of Luke and Matthew. This is the only
gnealogy that has any validity under the New Covenant.
7. The Shekinah Glory or the Holy Spirit is given to each Christian when
they are Born Again.

The Christian Church is both the fulfillment and the heir of Old Test.
Judaism. It is Christianity that containes all the spiritual characteristics
of Old Test. Temple Judaism.
