Jesus, Son of G-d or Satan's greatest trick?

Published on October 26, 2007 By Moderateman In Religion

So Satan sitting in his home listening to the screams of the tormented with a smile on his face, decided the Jews were to close to G-d, and this really angered him, he had to find a way to divide the damned Jews, after all G-d decided they were his chosen people and what better target for his evil deeds than watering down the religion, Now Satan had great power, let us not forget that after all he was arch Angel, most high, one of the three named Angels that sat at G-ds side at one time.

So along comes this good man Jesus was his name, he had many good things to say and the people listened, so first Satan hardened the hearts of the Rabbis, made them jealous of Jesus and his huge following, then Satan allowed some minor so called miracles to happen, an easy task for one as powerful as Lucifer. Satan also knew of the prophecy of the Messiah, and he thought what a great idea if he could trick the Jews into believing that Jesus was the Messiah, he could one, break up the tribes of Israel, really anger G-d whom Lucifer hated beyond all things and of course lead people away from the one true faith of Judaism. Needless to say his plan worked the people of Israel {some} believed the Messiah had come, the Rabbis who Lucifer had tricked into believing this good man was a threat to their power played their part perfectly and had the Romans crucify Jesus {all part of the prophecy} Some years after the death of Jesus, Christianity was born, Jesus NEVER claimed to be a Christian, he was circumcised in the Jewish religion and took Bar mitzvah at 13 again following the Jewish religion. Never once did he or his disciples call what Jesus was preaching Christianity, what he was preaching was Judaism in it purest form, with stress on the 10 commandments as a way to live your life. Did this really happen? I have no Idea, but it is no more believable or unbelievable than Jesus being the Human Son of G-d. Meanwhile we Jews of the one true faith are still waiting for the Messiah to arrive and on that day there will be much celebrating, for we have waiting patiently a very long time for this to happen.

We await his arrival, they await his second coming. 6 of one, half dozen of the other.

Elie, of the tribe of Levi

Elie, what do you know of the tribe of Levi?

Here's what little I know without doing more research. From Deuteuronomy 7 that Isreal became a "chosen" a "special people" through Abram selected by God. Abram name was changed to Abraham and he was to be magnified, "the father of many nations." Gen. 17:5.

From Abraham came Isaac, whose son Jacob's name was changed to Israel. Jacob was the father of the 12 sons who became the fathers of the 12 tribes of Israel. The children of Isreal were chosen by God to be the keepers, teachers and interpreters of His Law. This Law included a priesthood selected from the tribe of Levi and the selection of Judah as the tribe from which the promised Messiah, the Son of David, would come to fulfill the Law. The Israelites were especially favored by being the people from whom all the great prophets came, through whom God told the world of the great things that were to take place in Israel until "God Himself would come and save them." Isaias 35:4; 40:10.

After Joseph's death at the age of 110 years, Gen. 50, the superiority of the children of Israel descended not to Josephs's sons but to his 3rd brother Levi, who lived to be 137 years old. In Exodus 6:16, Levi's geneology is shown and from his line comes Aaron and Moses.

Hey, Mod...I notice you often spell God without the 'o'. You know it's probably alright to write "God" since that's not really his name. Or perhaps you have a different reason...just curious.

Do all Jews, no matter what their religious practice, await His arrival in the way or do Orthodox, Reform and Conservative Jews see it differently?

For Christians, the Messiah came 2,000 years ago. Catholics believe He's presently reigning over His kingdom from Heaven. This is known as the Millenium reign which began at His Ascension into Heaven and will continue until His Second Coming in Final Judgment at the end of the world. Although NT Scripture gives us certain signs of the end of the world, only God knows the hour and the day.

...and Catholicism teaches we are to keep watch and pray...no speculating is to be done.

Well, if you're from the tribe of Levi then you're not a Jew, MM. You're a Levite.

So you better quit saying you're a Jew.

Elie, just curious...how do you know you're of the tribe of Levi? Haven't all the records been lost that link the modern Jews to their tribes when Jerusalem was destroyed?

Zoo, most Jews do that to create a reverence to the Tetragramaton (Yod-Hey-Vav-Hey). Other ways that you'll see the name expressed is through Adonai (similar meaning to Lord) or Hashem (The Name). If you recall back in the Torah and Old Testament there are many reasons to have a reverent fear of G-D (and to not use HIS name loosely at the risk of taking HIS name in vain). It's also just a way to show respect to the creator but you are correct no one 'has to' only if you feel convicted that way.

Uh oh, I don't mean to start a theological discussion but this doesn't make sense.

Messiah ascended approx 1974 years ago. Millennium = 1,000years. So according to the Catholics Jesus' reign ended about 974 years ago?

How do the Catholics explain this one?

Well, Sancho... in Elie's case he is the one that makes the coffee. Why do I say this? Because HeBrews.

Bad joke I know but couldn't resist.

Millennium = 1,000years.

As you know not everything in Scripture is to be taken literally. The Millenium is to be understood as a "long period of time". It stretches from the time of Christ's Death, Resurrection, and Ascension to His Second Coming whenever that may be. Jesus' Ascended into Heaven in 33AD and is presently reigning over his kingdom on earth and will until He comes again in judgment. This time period is known as the Millenial reign of Christ. The Millenium is mentioned in the Book of the Apocalypse 20:4-7.

It's very important to note that the Catholic Church has never considered the "Millenium" per se as an article of faith. That Christ is in Heaven reigning, yes, but the meaning of Millenium as per the obscure text of Scripture is something not yet definitively taken up by the Church, and may never be. In reading the Gospels and the Epistles, there is no trace of a future Millenium. The Resurrection of the just and the unjust, the Final Judgment, and the end of the world are mentioned as in close succession, leaving no possible room for a mythical physical reign of Christ for a literal 1,000 years.

So, there you have it, Catholics think the Millenium signifies the long period of time immediately proceeding the Final Judgment. That would make is living in the Millenium now. The spiritual combat between good and evil is going on now and will culminate with the battle of Christ and Satan at the end of the world. We already know the outcome and that's why we pray, Come, Lord, Come.

In general though, you'll find that people are all over the map on what the Millenium means.

Thanks Lula.

Do you mind elaborating on Revelations 20:1-6?

Levi

Third son of Jacob and Leah and father of the tribe of Levi, from whom the Levites are descended. The tribe of Levi is one of the twelve tribes of Israel. Since Leah had already given Jacob two sons, she said "Now my husband will be joined with me" (Genesis 30:34). The Levites were distinguished as servants to God because of their refusal to worship to Golden Calf (Exodus 32: 26-29). Levi's own three sons, Gerhson, Kahath and Merari, become Temple servants. After Levi's sister Dinah was raped by Shechem, he and his brother Simeon destroyed the entire town. Levi was later involved in the plot to sell his brother Joseph into slavery.

My last name is a dead give away about what tribe I belong to.

I believe I NOW, always spell G-d, just to be careful so I do not take HIS name in vain.
