-Caveat Lector- Regarding your post about Jews for Jesus, what is your proof or source to support your statement: << A curious hybrid of Hassidic and Christian culture aptly named Jews for Jesus <http://www.jewsforjesus.org/> promotes the acceptance of Torah, Talmud and New Testament as divinely inspired texts. >>? I'd really like to know since I assume you wouldn't send out anything in your mailing that you haven't checked or verified. Jews for Jesus has never promoted the acceptance of the Talmud as an inspired text, although they demonstrate courtesy and respect for those who do. As for your statement about their endorsement of the Torah as inspired, you are correct. The word Torah is merely the Hebrew word for the first part of the Bible. By making that statement you are saying that Jews for Jesus believe in the inspiration of the Bible. They do. However, your statement about the Talmud is a different matter. The precise wording of Jews for Jesus' statement of faith regarding other Jewish literature can be viewed on their web site. But here it is anyway: "We recognize the value of traditional Jewish literature but only where it is supported by or conformable to the Word of God. We regard it as in no way binding upon life or faith." Shalom! DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER ========== CTRL is a discussion and informational exchange list.
