^^ Hmm, I never really thought about it,.. every time I saw one, I was just like "Well, goes to show you can't judge somebody by what they look like"... I mean, even if they're black, they might be jewish, LOL.  That's some crazy stuff.  Whatever they want to be though, it's all good.

Man, you might as well ask if there is any black KKK's. LOL.  Sheeit, Jews are a race, not a riligion.  It is a riglion, but first and formost it is a race of people.  Their God's people.  No body can just wake up one morning and say "Hey, I want to be jewish". LOL.  No, there are no black jews.  Unless a jew married a black and had a kid.  Maybe.  But I doubt that there are any black jews.  Dude, who wants to be jewish.  No offense to my jewish brothas out there.  But jews are like tha MOST persicuted people on this earth.  Thay even say it them selves. It didn't stop wit Hitlar.  They always geting looked down on still.  There is a big group of jews called "Jews for Jesus".  They started thay own organization and every thing.  They Believe in Jesus as tha Son of God.  But thay still jews.  Some of em' come to our church every year and preach.  Good people they are.  So you ya see?  Jews are a race of peeps.   I seriously doubt that there are any black jews.  Good question though.

They aren't a race man. That is one of the biggest misconceptions about the Jewish faith. Anyone can be Jewish if they choose to believe the way Jews do.

[Tha_Reverend]

Maybe. They can belive like tha jews do.   But can't be True jews.  Jews are God's People.  You just can't pretend to be some thing like that.  Nah, maybe you right, But I still think thay are a race of peeps.

oh, and another thing.  Why don't tha "jews for Jesus" just str8 out call them selves "christian"? cause thay can't forget who thay really are.  They Jews.  A race of God's people. They can't "un-jew" them selves.  It's not just a simple riligion that thay can jrop at any time.  Ya know?

Complicated stuff.  God promised Abraham all of God's people in heaven would be from Abraham's descent, as his posterity.  So, when you join the jewish faith (Mormons believe this too, but I don't know about other Christians), you are adopted into Abraham's family.  Our chutch gives out patriarchial blessings that state which Tribe you are of; so as a member, I'm jewish, LOL.  Crazy, right?

But think about that!  It says, right in the old testament, that everybody that enters heaven will be Abraham's descendant.  So, if you're not Abraham's descendant, naturally, our chutch believes you are spiritually 'adopted' into his family, to fulfill that promise to Abraham.  That's what he was promised, for agreeing to sacrifice his son to god.  

So, what i'm sayin is, according to the old testament, I'm jewish, by descent, but not Jewish by religion.

[Trauma-san]

Oh, and btw, if it weren't possible for this to happen, you'd have things like Black people not being able to enter heaven, chinese, hawaiians, basically anybody that wasn't Jew wouldn't be able to be saved, because god promised Abraham everyone in Heaven would be from his lineage? Hardly; that's why there must be a way to be adopted into Abraham's family.  So, if you consider you're going to heaven, you have to think that you are in Abraham's family.  If you're black, there's no way you were NATURALLY in his family, so you must be 'adopted' in.  Like I said, complicated.

[The Big Bad Ass]

I'm just sayin that in my 2 sociology classes, and from what I've gathered in my church that there is not a set "race" of jews. Alot of Jewish people have similar features, but it is more of a mediteranean look since that is where the fiath originated. However, as Truama said, if you adopt the jewish faith, then god adopts you as one of Ambrahams family. It isn't a race in a sense of black, white, ect...

[Tha_Reverend]

I don't know. LOL.  Like you said Complicated stuff. and what you siad about the tribes, I don't know.  I not very sure on what we believe in. LOL.  But why become jewish???  If you not Born jewish, your not jewish.  I'm mexican, I don't go round trying to be black(although many do, LOL)  . Dude yall got me comfused. Damn.  all I know, is that Jesus came as a Jew.  His race was Jewish.  there for Jews are first and for most a RACE of peeps.



PEACE

[Tha_Reverend]

Maybe yall right.  LOL.  but yeah, I guess.

[Trauma-san]

Just read the first 5 books of the old testament, it clearly says that all of the people in heaven will be Abraham's descendants.  He was jewish, so if you expect to get into heaven, one way or another, you're gonna be 'jewish' too.  It's not a race or nothin', it's just like a label.  Jewish= Descendant of Abraham.  There's also a jewish FAITH, which isn't really the same thing, though they would of course say it is; but it's possible for people (in my opinion, ha) that aren't jewish to get into heaven; they're simply adopted into the family.

but being Jewish is first and for all a race....yea...they belong to the semite race....but r considered a race of it"z own officially.....the diaspra was the thing to make Jews an even more seperate rase from the other semites.
