I had some great Bible study this morning. I have Torah Club 1 that I just started. I was reading from last week's Torah portion where Jesus healed on the Sabbath. This led to a more in-depth study of Jesus from John 1 and Genesis 1. Deep stuff. Jesus=Torah=God=with God. How can someone be God and be with God? Jesus healed on the Sabbath and continues to work on the Sabbath because the Father is working "even now". I have so much more I need to understand!
I didn't want to quit, but eventually felt the need to go help Tim take our ever-expanding pile of garbage and recycling to the dump. At the dump I saw a bunch of eagles perched in nearby trees.
When I got home I put away our Christmas and Hannukah stuff away while listening to some speakers on tape/dvd. As I hear the story of where antisemitism started, and as I learn about the roots of Christianity and how it became a separate religion, I am turned off from what Christianity has become. I did Christmas this year, because I am a gentile believer and have many good memories of it. However, the more I become aware of how Christianity became what it is today, the more I am not sure of what I should do about things like Christmas.
Then I changed around the living room furniture.
