The most difficult challenge for me; with transition from Christian to Hebrew, was to think Jewish
Jewish view:
@: there is no original sin:
every human is born innocent and without sin; sin is forgiven by annual Festivals dictated by Gd .
@: there is No Hell; the Torah speaks of a “pit” which the Catholic Leaders elaborated and made Hell.
@: there is No Devil; the Torah speaks of the “Satan” one-time
jewish view: Satan; is the Prosecutor in the justice system of Gd;
@: No One can die for sins of another; this is pagan human sacrifice belief
@: The world is not going to self destruct by the works of the anti-christ:
On the contrary; Gd is going to bring Heaven on Earth; the jewish pray everyday for Gds return and in the mean time, jews pray for wisdom;
Every jewish heart knows;
one day, an Angle of Gd will announce themselves to the humans of the World that Adonai has arrived;
on that day; immediately; there will be no War, no crime, no killing; all humans will understand truth and will bow to the Gd of Israel ,and hopefully the non-jew; will have a jew standing next to them so the non-jew; can grab the pant-leg of a jew and ask that jew to lead them to Adonai;
On that day; is the end of Darkness and Evil; forever.
for me; These changes in perspective are the most difficult for a ex-christian to incorporate into the ex-christian mind and heart
From a child, I was taught; you are not worthy of Gd ; even if your good, you were born with sin; my childhood stories were to fear an evil spirit taking over my body or an evil spirit is always waiting;
I feared eternity living in fire; I didn’t like heaven either, I mean, living in a cloud for eternity.. ugg
I learned no matter what I did; only Jesus can save me ,
and the bad things that happened to me; my fault because I lacked in love and obedience, for Jesus;
note: they could be right about this one.. haha
Fear, Guilt and shame was instilled into my Christian upbringing and is the polar opposite of the Jewish family;
For me; i had to denounce Jesus with a ceremony. I made a campfire, smashed and burnt everything that was of Jesus. Even jewelry. my praying that night was emotional; I was aware of how long, I had been lie to and how betrayed I felt… when the sun rose;
I got up as a Hebrew;
I wasn’t a Hebrew because I denounced Jesus and all church teaching; I was Hebrew because that night my heart and brain knew, the Gd of Israel was the true Gd; I was full of gratitude because I knew, Gd gave me the opportunity to find him and the wisdom to gab on.
I also believe; if your on sites like this, Gd is giving you the opportunity to find him.. don't be afraid to grab on, for Torah said: Adonai say: “ Return to Me and I will Return to you”
