You know what their problem is, completely? It is not us, not lack of knowledge, not persecution, not Christianity, not Muslims, not descendants of Ishmael, not Middle East real estate, not a false witness of Christ or the preaching of a false Christ. It is that they reject Jesus Christ, case closed. They were the ones who started it all. Little did they know that those they persecuted would grow, if only in name, to far outnumber them and have the tables turned on them. Their hatred, rejection and persecution of the Messiah and His own backfired on them. And the fruits of their planted seeds are great and heavy.
Yet, that is the way God has set it all up, beginning with salvation of the Gentiles.

wHaT tHe LoRd HaS dOnE wItH mE; Part XI, Correspondence with Dallas and Sarah Cooper
Correspondence with Dallas and Sarah Cooper The correspondence begins with the Hexagram, the “Star of David”: Hello Victor: The other day when I was over Paul's house. I heard you talking about the star of David or Hexagram. I wasn't trying to pry, but it caught my attention for a second. I was telling Sara that that star is a Hexagram, but I couldn't remember much about it. To my understanding, this did not become a symbol used by the Israelites until after their Babylonian captivity when they mixed the Torah with the Kabbalah. So I went back to the site to re-familiarize myself with it and here are two links you may want to look at. http://altreligion.about.com/library/glossary/symbols/bldefshexagram.htm http://altreligion.about.com/library/glossary/symbols/bldefsmagen.htm Dallas and Sarah wrote again after we talked about the subject on the phone: Hello Victor: I was thinking about our conversation on the phone yesterday about the Hexagram and we have some things we'd like you to consider about it. I don't think that we should use the symbol. I'm not being superstitious as Paul suggested. To me it is this simple: This is not something ordained by God (like crosses and pictures of Christ). Therefore, it is the works of men. If the upside triangle represents the kingdom of heaven and the downside, the kingdom of men, aren't these very concepts religious and spiritual by nature? Aren't you preaching the kingdom of Heaven t...

Truth Insults Those Who Despise It

A Hypocritical and Unrighteous Judge
Readers response: It is true that Jesus died for all people, especially came for the Jews. But the Bible does not tell us to convert them.
