Luke 18.9-14
9 “And he spake this parable unto certain which trusted in themselves that they were righteous, and despised others:
10 Two men went up into the temple to pray; the one a Pharisee, and the other a publican.
11 The Pharisee stood and prayed thus with himself, God, I thank thee, that I am not as other men are, extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even as this publican.
12 I fast twice in the week, I give tithes of all that I possess.
13 And the publican, standing afar off, would not lift up so much as his eyes unto heaven, but smote upon his breast, saying, God be merciful to me a sinner.
14 I tell you, this man went down to his house justified rather than the other: for every one that exalteth himself shall be abased; and he that humbleth himself shall be exalted.”
Romans 10.13
“For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.”

Thank you Mr Lee. Yes, we may thrive on God’s free grace, just like Noah, Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. These men received grace and were full of faith.

Thank you so much Mr. Lee for sharing this video. God knew how much I needed that.
In this sermon Don Fortner saying Jesus is not a Jew. Thank You Lord Jesus Christ.
And I show you why. Remember Ceali?https://modconspiracy.wordpress.com/2020/11/17/colorful-appearances/
Some months I stumbled on information that really, thunderstruck me in a way. And I am doing a post in four parts. I posted two parts. Part 1 the lineage of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob
Part two the two lineages of Esau.
Parts three and four will deal with the division of who accepted and rejected Jesus Christ.

with a link to part 2.
It took me over a decade to come why I believe what I believe. I’ll share that with you as well shortly.

Oh I can’t wait to read it sister when I have time, (I’m at work right now).
Yes, I remember caeli, she has advised others to beware of me.
And she has appearantly put you in her sights as well.
The best thing you can do is to disengage contact with her.
Let her commotion about you draw people’s attention to your site, where you can communicate good information to them.

Hi miss Jackie, good mornin to you sister.
I just now read both posts which are linked in your comment, and I need you to help me understand something please.
When Don Fortner said that God isn’t a Jew, I understood that to mean that He is greater than any earthly identity. For example He isn’t a Jew any more than He’s an Eskimo. He is I AM.
But I don’t understand how Jesus wasn’t a Jew, since He was of the tribe of Judah.
The word “Jew” is merely a shortened expression of “Judah.”
Help me see what I’m missing please…

Here is some more information I have in my notes. They are quotations.
Quote of Gerald Soman
The word “Jew” is a relatively new term. The letter “J” was not even used in the English language until the 1600s and was not part of common vernacular until the 1700s. The word “Jew” was not in use until the 18th century.
Old Testament were pertaining specifically to “Judahites” – people who were members of the Tribe of Judah (who were Israelites by race).
Later, in the New Testament, the word “Jew” is used in reference to a “Judean”, or someone who was living in the Roman province known as Judea. End of Quote
Quote of a website that is now offline
Obviously the word “Jew” wasn’t used in the Greek either. It was actually the Greek word ioudaios (you-day-os) which doesn’t mean “Jew” but “Judaean” or one who is a resident of Judaea. A ‘Judaean’ is a person whose home is in the land of Judaea or southern Palestine. It is a geographical term such as “New Yorker”, which can be someone white, black, brown, or yellow by race. He can be Christian, Jew, Buddhist, or atheist. So an “ioudaious”, “Judaean”, or Jew in the New Testament could be any person who lived in Judaea, whereas we’ve seen there were quite a few Israelites of the tribe of Judah and Benjamin. There were also a lot of Edomite Judaeans along with Romans, Greeks, Syrians, Egyptians, and so on. End of quote

Hi miss Jackie,
You are smarter than I am, so all I can give you is my perspective.
I see God as being outside of earthly identity. And Jesus Christ, Who is God, temporarily wore an earthly identity.
But He existed before any words such as “Jew,” “Israelite,” or “Hebrew” even was heard of.
He was born of the tribe of Judah, and He was born in Bethlehem, (which was in Judea), so any way you look at it…He was a “Jew” during His walk on earth.
He came unto His own, but they received Him not.
Now He’s back in His original identity, God incarnate…but I wouldn’t think of Him as a Jew now.
That’s how I see it.
Am I missing something?

Sure, you can look at it that way. As long as we realize that there Israelite Jews and Edomite Jews. But that may become clearer after part three and four of my post.
No. I am not smarter than you. I just have searched in the Bible and online for the right information.
I may publish a post about how I came to believe what I believe and refer to Spaniard and ceali.
Because when I am correct she believes the Second Coming of Jesus Christ depends on the sacrifice of an unblemished red heifer.

Both Spaniard and caeli have spoken against me, and as tempting as it may be to see them corrected, I just want peace for you sister.
Please do what you must do, but if I could give you a little nice advice, I wouldn’t go into genealogies and such. As I don’t see what peace will come of it.
Think about:
1 Timothy 1:4 – Neither give heed to fables and endless genealogies, which minister questions, rather than godly edifying which is in faith: [so do].”
It doesn’t matter what lineage someone comes from.
All that matters is that they be found in Christ.
Whatchya Think? 😀✝️

Although I have a draft made up that refers to ceali and spaniard I’ll take your advice.
When I get confronted with something like this I always sleep over it. And mostly I decide against.

You’re not weird miss Jackie, all of us Christians have been distracted with topics that aren’t always in our best interest. I’ve done it a million times, and will no doubt do it a million more times.
So don’t beat yourself up over it.
That’s part of what brethren are for, to help each other along the way.
God bless you and your family sister. 🙂
