I know you're new here, but this thread was NOT posted like you think. It was placed in the RELIGION forum but having a "keyword" of Judaism does not make it a Judaism forum (or Judaism Caucus). There is also the word "Protestant" in the keyword list for this thread, it didn't make it a Protestant forum either. I have no problem if FReeper Jews want to have a Judaism Caucus and post threads. I have no desire to post to those just like I stay out of Catholic Caucus threads. But this thread was NOT posted that way (the one who posted it in the first place is a Catholic - that should give a hint). Regardless, "Caucus" threads on the Religion Forum (there is no Judaism Forum) should not compare beliefs or speak in behalf of a belief outside the caucus. So this one, because it talked about Lutherans and Martin Luther's anti-Jewish writings wouldn't have been permitted to BE a Judaism Caucus thread. Is that more clear now?
And JFTR, I deplore the way the Jewish people have been treated over the millennia. I don't condone it at all. It is certainly never a way to evangelize them for Jesus. I understand that the Jews have predominantly rejected Jesus as their Messiah and I believe it is because there is a veil of confusion over their eyes due to their unbelief and disobedience. Of course, nearly ALL of the early followers of Jesus WERE Jews and there are thousands of Messianic Jews today who believe in Him, too, and for good reasons. One day that veil will be lifted and eyes will be opened to Him as the true Messiah. I will continue to pray for that day and for the peace of Jerusalem.
P.S. I don't believe in Replacement Theology. God is not finished with His people (see Jeremiah 31. Shalom.
The Judaism topic IS the Judaism forum. It’s the ONLY ONE on FR dealing with Judaism.
Get a grip.
There's no point in trying to witness to me because Torah is the only truth I adhere to.

You're definitely Lutheran.
Stop cursing yourself.
