much to learn

Nate, I admit I have much to learn about God's word. I have always been a non-denominational Christian, and have always been more interested in seeking God spiritually. Only recently have I felt a calling to read and understand God's word. So I know it will take a long time to get there. I believe God does not care about religion. He cares about a spiritual loving relationship built on faith in the Holy Spirit, and the only way to truly have faith is to know God's word.

I want to point one thing out and make it clear. I never said I believe God wants only Jews to live in Israel. I do NOT believe that at all. But I DO believe in the Covenant God made with the people of Israel, which is the central theme throughout the Bible. All mankind will be judged. There will be horrific days during the tribulation for all who reject Christ - Jews, false Christians, atheists, and all people who remain deceived by Anti-Christ (Satan in the flesh on earth). But for those who accept Jesus as their savior and Lord, they will all be saved. There are spirits living eternally now in God's kingdom. Their will also be believers who are raptured when Christ returns to earth. The tribulation will be a horrific period when many will follow Anti-Christ and remain deceived.

I am not going to post any more of my thoughts on here. I do not have time. But I want to make it clear that I do NOT support only Jews. That would be ridiculous! I am a Christian with faith in the Holy Spirit. I am just a follower searching for the truth.
