“Just touch the hem of My Garment”Pt.3

So who do you identify with? I am a Christian, I can say, “I identify with HIM!” The writer Kay Arthur describes Christians as: people who have shuddered at the awfulness of their sin. They have seen sin for what it is: willful rebellion against the rulership of God in their lives. And in turning from their sin, they have embraced God’s only means of dealing with sin: Jesus or Yeshua

Who is Jesus? He is an Israeli Jewish Rabbi from the Middle East. He isn’t an Anglo-Saxon or an American, as some have made Him out to be. His identity is deeply rooted in the Jewish lineage.
