Idea about "Hell"
LOL! By your estimation, I'm probably more ISRAELITE than you are! My mothers side of the family is entirely ITALIAN and SICILIAN, and my father... AMERICAN INDIAN! (By the way, you should learn to cool it with the all caps. It makes a person look like a yelling, ranting, and boisterous lunatic...) Anyway, I've got an old genealogy report laying around somewhere, if you're curious about the tribes, but they're all there. Still, that doesn't mean a thing.
You are right about one thing, though... it's NOT your job to convince me, nor anyone else for that matter, that you even have the remotest clue what you're talking about in these rants of yours. It was Christ's job to do the convincing, and I'd say He did a pretty good job, seeing that Christianity is thriving today amidst a world full of homicidal Islamic factions, spiteful atheistic rhetoric, misleading evolutionary theory, and fanatical/overzealous so-called "Christians" running about and claiming that they (and only they) have the answers that mainstream Christianity is desperately searching for. We don't need any interpretations of scripture, especially not any that are taken out of context, because our Bible is proof that God needs no mediator to relay/decipher the message. He only needed the prophets to write the message. Aside from that, it's up to His children to decipher it. We don't need the opinion of conceited and persistently rude know-it-alls to decipher it for us! (P.S. - Sorry if that was rude!)
But hey, God bless you for trying. I know, in your own roundabout way, you're just trying to help... but I have a sneaking suspicion that you're scaring people away from Christianity, as opposed to drawing them closer to the Lord. One last scripture for you to ponder and write off as inconsequential:
"But whoso shall offend one of these little ones which believe in me, it were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and that he were drowned in the depth of the sea." (Matthew 18:6)
I hope you learn to tame that little temper of yours. Remember, regardless of whether you adhere to it or not, Jesus said that we should love our neighbor... not be rude to them for the sake of grabbing attention. And if you're wrong, and non-Israelites can inherit the Kingdom of God without being submissive servants of the Israelites, then you might want to consider that passage I just wrote for you above. (Or does that only apply to non-Israelites who do the offending?
)
Take care.
