AG,
Do you think that if me and you have dialog concerning this that it could be of benifit to you? I base this on that I believe that reasonable people can have misundertandings and that misundertandings can be cleared up, and I think that dialog between us could be a way for this to happen.
If you choose to have dialog with me here, coould you consider the following?
A. Jewish people, like myself, are deeply offended when one writes or says that salvation is only through Jesus Christ. For when jews hear or read that, they have the potential to think that this means that they are worshipping their God in vain because they do not believe in salvation only through Jesus. This can cause serious psychological and emotional destress to some jews and others that do not think that they are worshipping their God in vain.
B. It is my understanding that the Bible referrs to the word in question and that the person is most likely to be a jew according to Jerry Falwell. If one reads your posts, it is evident that you write that you are a christian and to think that the word could mean that you are that person written about in the Bible would have to be explained to me by you for me to understand that.
C. Some christian groups do not think that the word referrs at all to a single person.
D. The word in the subject line has a question mark after it and in your post you wrote that you think that it(the faith board) is antichristian.
E. I did write an apology to you that you may not be aware of and will not use condensed words that could be read as another word.
F. The past prasctice here is to not go back to revisit after an apology is posted.
G. I, being jewish, am restrained from posting the foundation of my faith here and I was involved in the thread in question in order to clarify that the foundation of other faiths that have the potential to put down jews and others also be restrained as to not have the potential for one here to think that the forum endorses [..salvation only through Jesus...].
