Dear Dan; What a blessing you are in this post. It is easy to look with hindsight and call Paul the Apostle to the Gentiles. However I am not so sure he would see it his way. His heart was to the Jew. Rom 9:3 For I could wish that myself were accursed from Christ for my brethren, my kinsmen according to the flesh: This is a heavy statement and shows his heart. This is why he spoke in the Synogue when he entered a new town. I have a problem with the dispensational view. It seems to me to put God into too many boxes and is just a bit too neat. God is the same yesterday, today and forever. The whole Bible is useful to us today and I see it as bringing us to faith in a very Jewish system of belief. 2Ti 3:16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: 2Ti 3:17 That the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works. In Yeshua's love for you - DLL

Dan, there are beautiful messages in the NT that Paul has brought out concerning the Messianic Jews. I did not mean to imply that in any way that the remnant of born-again Jewish believers would not share in the blessings of the age of grace. "4 Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! 5 Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near. 6 Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. 7 And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus." Phil. 4: God bless and keep you Dan. I hope that I have not caused you any problem. Santiago

Below was another good reason to HAVE FAITH IN CHRIST as Lord, In the days of Edward I, who ruled England in the thirteenth century, the price of a fairly well written Bible was 37 pounds, or approximately $184. The hire of a laborer was a penny and a half a day. The purchase of a copy of the Bible would have taken such a person 4,800 days, or thirteen years and fifty-five days, of continuous labor. Excluding Sabbaths, something more than fifteen years and three months of constant labor would have been required to compass the price. By Alfonso N. Anderson, Signs of the Times, November 25, 1930.
