Jew Quotes
Text Quotes

I’m very spiritual and I’m Jewish by faith. I’m not a practising Jew, I’m more of a recreational Jew.

(Jew Quotes)

To Catholic, Orthodox, and some Protestant Christians, communion involves partaking of the physical real presence of God in the bread and wine of the Eucharist.

It is essential that Christians understand this: Every Jew - secular, religious, assimilated, left-wing, right-wing - fears being killed because he is Jewish.
