Hey, I'm one of those Christians who studies the Old Testament, too, as we believe Christ came to fulfill the law,and create a new law based on His love and forgiveness. Is this a technicality (Jesus as Rabbi) that would get me in?
Many of my playmates growing up in Minneapolis were Jewish, even went to synagogue a few times for Bar Mitzvas (passed out once in the middle of one though, had flu-or was I struck down?....)I worry about that more when visiting a Catholic church, actually....Would the Pope strike me down as a protestant heretic?...
I love this old one: The Jewish shop-keeper never tires of hearing Christmas Carols, he just observes the increase in sales and hums "What a friend I have in Jesus"....harr
Merry Christmas, Happy Hannukah, Happy New Year
