Wrong. I’m calling them “willfully ignorant” for not knowing the Old Testament as well as they should (and specifically the Messianic prophecies) and for not doing independent research into whether Jesus Christ is the Messiah written about in the Old Testament. Nothing is stopping them from doing either. I base that characterization also on the hostility ...[text shortened]... ant to consider, let alone hear, the evidence for Jesus Christ being their long-awaited Messiah.
It's all well and good for you to beleve what you do with regard to supernatural phenomena. But the strength and sincerity of your faith doesn't not create intellectual weaknesses and errors in people who happen to not share your beliefs.
Originally posted by @fmfI thought we were specifically talking about non-Messianic Jews. Now you’ve broadened it to “people who happen to not share your beliefs?”

Psst, you're overdoing the 'tiger.'

He's prolly got to goto work. We dont judge others only ourselves
Originally posted by @romans1009I have been talking about Jews all along. They are not "willfully ignorant" for not being a Christian like you. To call them that is just silly posturing.

Originally posted by @fmfWell I’ve already addressed that point, kiddo. Your pretending I didn’t refute your statement and repeating it doesn’t mean it wasn’t refuted.
