This week as we were going through the grograpy I found it very interesting. The thing that I thought about was the digging of the tunnel into solid rock during the reign of Hezekiah. What an amazing project that must have been considering the fact that they did not have equipment like we have today. Something else I thought about is how amazing it is that all of this ties into the story of the Life of Christ. I have never really thought about all of these historical happening as being apart of this wonderful story. Also during the lecture Dr. Foster said that if Jews believe that they must follow the law in order to maintain a close relationship with God, then let it be. I totally agree with him on this point. I think that we should let them know that Jesus was sent here to fulfill the law, by dying on the cross for us, which makes the gift of Salvation free.

Thomas,
Let me clarify my remark about the Jews. I really meant that remark in a historicial context that is to say, we need to accept that they were obedient to their understanding of God and his revelation in the first century before Christ.
We must share the gospel with all of humanity, regardless of race, today. Without Christ, there is no hope, no salvation.
peace,
