Episode notes
Many years ago, during a visit to a church in Edmonton, a woman who regularly attended mentioned her Jewish background. In response, another person asked, "When did you convert to Christianity?" Her reply was truly memorable; she boldly proclaimed, "I am not a Christian; I am a believing Jew!"While some may perceive this statement as startling or possibly offensive, it captures the heart of our current inquiry. For this individual in Edmonton, believing that Jesus was the Messiah didn't entail forsaking her culture or family heritage. Instead, it meant recognizing Jesus Christ as the promised Messiah and placing her faith in him, embracing his kingdom and its principles for living.
