Question Posted Saturday April 23 2005, 11:31 pm

Just as easily, I can throw every miracle in the Torah at you. Why is it that The Bible is so much more acurate than The Torah? Both contain "miracles", and things that aren't possible.


So that history would not repeat itself? Why choose the Jews? Why not have it not happen at all, rather than destroy nearly an entire religion in Europe.

Ah, you're Jewish! Well, my friend, I am not as familiar with the Torah as you are, but I'm much more familiar with the Bible. I am a Protestant - the religion that the pilgrims brought from England.


Those things are possible - with Christ anything is possible. I never said the Bible is much more accurate than the Torah is, but, I believe that the Bible is the whole Word. The Torah isn't the whole Bible. You don't have a New Testament, where as I do. Can you explain those miracles in a way other than through God? I can't find someone who is deaf and just say, "My child, because of your faith, you are now made whole. Go therefore and hear! Your sins are forgiven." - because if I could, I would. I know a woman at my church who I do Sign Language for because she is deaf. I would give her my hearing if I could. She has children, but she has never heard their voices. How terribly sad is that? I can't restore her hearing. God could choose to give her hearing; but He wants us to learn from things like that. If it wasn't for Mrs. Debra, I wouldn't know of such deep measures of perserveance, love, hope, and I wouldn't be as fluent in my Second Language. I wouldn't have such a literal knowledge of the Scriptures, and I wouldn't have such a friend.



It is not just the Jews that have been persecuted. Yes, they have been 'picked on' more than other religions, but that is because they are the apple of God's eye. I would be a Messianic Jew if I could.. but it is not in my heratige. I am a Gentile. Thankfully, God has not limited salvation to Jews alone; but to all people.
You see, the reason the Protestants came to America was because they were being persecuted by the Roman Catholics. No one wanted them, so they came to America. Once in America, the Protestants were singled out by Roman Catholics, condemned as witches, and were hung. It is not only Jews that were persectued. Why did Hitler pick the Jews to persecute? I don't know. I wish I knew. I guess because God was trying to teach us that He'll be there always, we should depend on Him for all things, no matter how tough things get. Perhaps He wanted to show us that His patience has an end. I believe, though, that Hitlar was jealous. He knew that Germans were not Jews, and thus they were not God's chosen people. But Hitlar minipulated minds and convinced people that Germany was doing the right thing getting rid of these people, and that Germans were the apple of God's eye.



I don't have the answers to every question. Some things have to be taken up with God. I have hundreds of questions to ask God. "Why couldn't I meet my grandfather?" "Why do we have such awful men who will molest innocent girls?" "Why did my father hit me?" "Why can't I see ultraviolet rays?" and more.



Now, I have a question for you. If you still have questions, will you please tell me if you're male or female and how old you are. If you're embarassed to say how old exactly, something as vague as 'mid-twenties' is good enough for me. I'd just like to know what age I'm workin` with.

Much love in Christ,
