From indifference to prayer

I don’t have strong positive feelings for the Jews or Israel. I’ve declared that I’m not a Jew and that I would never want to become one. It’s not as if I’d be any great addition to that people, if any. But I’m happy with my current lot in terms of ethnicity. My nationality is […]

Choice of words

I just read what I see as an excellent article. I’ve read two articles by this author and have thoroughly enjoyed both. The one that’s in the forefront of my mind right now can be found at ChananyaWeissman.com. I was communicating with a friend and amongst that flow of words, I stated that it irks […]

When government is God

Then all the elders of Israel got together, and came to Samuel at Ramah. And they said to him: ‘Look, man! You are old, and your sons don’t follow in your footsteps. Now set up a king for us to judge us like all the [other] nations.‘ But the thing was horrendous in the eyes of […]

Point proven! Enough already!

I’ve mentioned before how I’ve observed how people are treated in certain circles once they are linked in some way to Israel or the comments that are made with regards to the topic of Jews. To summarise, I see many social media messages that express hatred or distrust for Jews and for those who support […]

Adding the state

I thought to myself that, since deleting most of my social media accounts, I hadn’t really looked at anything from those who call themselves noahides or their teachers. So one organisation that came to mind was the Noahide World Centre (http://en.noahideworldcenter.org/ – they spell it as “center”). I must have been crazy to consider them […]

Naaman: How they contradict themselves unknowingly

One of the “odd immigrants,” the evangelising gerrings, made a claim about Naaman, that he was a “ger toshav” but never moved to Israel. He offered pictures from a book as evidence. See? As you may see, his main point is Naaman was just a Gentile who forever lived in Aram or Syria yet was […]

Help! I got “ger” and now I need medication

Yes, I’m using the term “ger” in the same way as if I had caught “crabs” or got some other irritating infestation or infection that I want to get rid of. A few of them started to infest one of my online localities and now I don’t know whether to quarantine myself or try to […]

Supporting “Israel”

More disgraceful links: I’m glad the Jews returned to the land that God gave them, or at least part of it. I hope that they not only regain all of their divinely promised land, but that they once again become the nation they are supposed to be, that they return to the things that made […]

A Jew locked out of Israel

I am personally of the view that Jews should be in their homeland, the holy land of Israel. I believe the Jewish Bible teaches that Jews continuing to live outside of Israel brings disgrace to God’s name. That land is their heritage. Then I hear of the government of the state of Israel preventing a […]

Modern Israel: From Egypt to Egypt

I saw someone who loves the modern state of Israel, seeing it as a beacon in a benighted Middle East, describe it thusly. A democracy with civil rights for all, sexual equality, freedom of expression, freedom of faith.  Now I know that many with modern Western sensibilities will see such a description and praise it, […]
