There may have been another one, but Corrie Ten Boom was not a Jew. Rather she and her family were Christians who risked their own lives to save Jews fleeing from the Nazis. Finally they were caught and when the Allied armies were retaking the Netherlands, the German transferred local prisoners including Corrie and her sister, Betsy to Germany. The concentration camp where she was sent, was not Auschwitz, but Ravensbruck.That was Corrie Ten Boom, although I do not know if she was Jewish.
That's why us young bucks appreciate you old-timers...a treasure-trove of information. LolThere may have been another one, but Corrie Ten Boom was not a Jew.

I know of 2 married couples all 4 who were Jews with the numbers on their arms neatly done like a stamp, they were all in Auschwitz and nicer people you could ever meet, they had every reason to be bitter, but that did not exist at all, because they knew such was truly a step in the wrong direction.I read of a woman who survived Auschwitz and later came to Christ. Years later, she ran into a man who was a guard in her camp. He had also became a follower of Yeshua. He asked her to for give him. Though it took her awhile, she finally did.
A Jew forgave a Nazi...will wonders never cease?
We are to love those who hate us
Bless those who curse us
Pray for those who mistreat us

I'm speaking to myself first.
When I say that I'm of Hebrew descent, the world calls me a Jew. Fine.
Traditional Jews say that because my parents didn't call themselves Jews, then I'm not. Fine.
Right after leading worship in a revival that went around the world, God told me 3 times, in 3 identical situations, 3 weeks apart, that I was a Levite. 23 years later, He proved it to me. Then He confirmed it through the teachings of an orthodox Jewish scholar. Why?
Why do I care that the last day of the week is the sabbath? Why do I care that the church does not replace Israel? Why do I care that today may be our Messiah's birthday? Why do I make life so much harder for myself by saying the things I do?
Because it's in my DNA, I guess. I hear that DNA tests are being developed. I'll take one when it's time.

What advantage is there? Good question. I've only recently come to understand that, being of Hebrew descent, albeit ancient, I'm viewed as a Jew. That's fine, I already have this unexplainable love for, and attraction to, my distant kin, Messianic, Orthodox, or other.
For some strange reason that I have difficulty understanding, I can feel my Hebrewnish in my bones...in my D.N.A.
I, Truman Coates, am a Jew! Man, it still, somewhere in me, seems unreal.
Jesus is the word of God...the Tanakh is the word of God.
I'm not saying anything, I'm just speculating. God has made promises to Israel that have not yet been fulfilled.
Then there's the 12 tribes in the book of Revelation. The word of God means what it says...except for there?
I did find an online Messianic group that accepts Jews, Hebrews, and Christians...but seem to be cessationists.
I'm called to this...I can't ignore it.
Okay, who's gonna pile on me the love of Christ first?
I got my dates mixed up. Sukkot begins, I believe, on the 20th.God repeats something three times when he really means it. He has spoke things to me and repeated it three times. He does that in the Bible too. Just sayin

I, as a follower of Yeshua, am a spiritual Jew. I am also descended from physical Israel.I got my dates mixed up. Sukkot begins, I believe, on the 20th.
Based out of Jerusalem, they were probably Torah-observant, though they didn't push it. One thing I've learned is, wherever you go, people are people. My spirit has been born-again, I believe God spent 20 years purifying the soul of this Levite, Yeshua dwells in me!Is it a Torah observant group ? I joined one but was told I had sinned against God by having a covid vaccine because abortion is forbidden by God. I left as they were hostile to me there. I also was told that born again Christians aren't God's true people because only Torah observance distinguishes whether you truly belong to God or not

But I do not view myself as a Messianic Jew.
A Messianic Jew can live in Israel...I can't, at least not yet.
