It seems to me the talmudists spend their time nitpicking about how the Torah should be interpreted, which is a total waste of time given JC did it for them. Whether they're orthodox or internationalist atheists, they clearly have it in for us. Their total disrespect & disdain for JC is unacceptable. Muslims, on the other hand, do not disrespect Christians, at least not according to my experience. My late husband was from a conservative Muslim family. It would never have entered their mind to speak in a blasphemous way against JC.

this is so true about Jesus participation when two+ gathered in his name, He never left us, He is everywhere at the same time… and I would go further, believing that He has protected me, cloaked me invisible to someone who was actively hunting me, seeking to harm me even before I was a believer because He knew that eventually I would be a believer.
