Ok, thank you very much, the Torah describes the covenant that G-d made with Abraham, and with Isaac, and with Jacob, and with Moshe, and with Am Yisrael, so what is your point? That you don't accept, and are not obligated to accept, G-d's covenant with Am Yisrael, and all of our obligations to G-d, and G-d's CONDITIONAL promises to us, and no one, not even G-d, says that G-d perfects the universe overnight. And all of Torah tells us that it is OUR responsibility to play a HUGE PART in perfecting the universe - did you know that - that the perfection of the universe depends on us observing the Mitzvot of the Torah - that we have a huge and awesome responsibility, and that when we fail, EVERYONE - the entire universe- suffers- did you know that?

And you are not obligated to be bound by G-d's covenant with us? Obviously. You are not obligated to be bound by G-d's covenant with us. But not because Jesus said so and said he was making a new covenant, because what Jesus said is irrelevant because it is not what G-d the Creator of the Universe said. But because you weren't there at Har Sinai, receiving the Revelation and agreeing to its conditions, in the first place.

So what are you trying to teach me, here? Some Christians may be our friends, many have been our enemies, and have killed and utterly destroyed entire families and communities, exiled, persecuted us in the name of your idolatrous man-G-d, Jesus. So what do you want me to say here and now - thank YOU, Harold, for being my friend - as long as I agree that I don't mind that you pervert and try to take MY Torah to be your own?

Shoshanna



HH: Yes, we believe the new covenant replaces the Mosaic covenant, but
it does not replace the Abrahamic covenant. And God does not perfect the
universe overnight. It is a process, part of which is the age we are
presently living through. True Christians are your friends, not your
enemies.

Yours,
Harold Holmyard
