What I Believe (12-7-2011)

I spent yesterday and today thinking about what I believe. Here's what I've come up with:

I believe in G-d. When I look at how complex life is, I know it was created by something or someone.

I believe that what is written in the Torah, the Tanach, and the Midrash could possibly have happened. (I also LOVE reading the Midrash even though I've been told that the stories have been changed and distorted.)

I believe that Jesus may have lived and died.

I believe that Jesus may have risen from the dead (since so many people believe he did and also because I believe in miracles).

However....

I believe that there is more than one way to God.

I also am not sure I agree that one can mix being Jewish with believing in Jesus even though some people I know say that you can.

My search for how to follow God continues, and my love of Judaism continues to grow. I have such a desire to learn all I can about G-d.

Jesus Toast - A Very Funny Video!

This is so funny!



Now...my comments:

This is funny because one guy insists that he sees Jesus on his toast, while the other guy sees nothing, but a piece of toast.

The first guy says, "Well, you have to look at it from a different angle." Then, he shows his friend that Jesus is actually really sitting on the piece of toast. His friend still sees nothing.

That's what it's like when one person says the bible's prophecies clearly point to Jesus and the other person sees nothing but words that he believes talk about something else altogether.

Funny Chanukah Video!

I love this video!
