they pull some people out of the judaized churches and put them on a different path
in a way, that would be me, except for that I have not been in the judaized churches for most of my Christian life. I already knew that the dispensationalist's, "fly away in the sky" view was bogus, and all those tele-evangelists were / are charlatans, and that the so-called jews, "God's Chosen," are our biggest enemy, etc. If not for God's grip on me and my early deep study of the Word of God, I would have turned aside long ago.
But before Collins, I was clueless re: 12 Tribes history. What Collins does is explain the 12 Tribes with an easy to understand practical approach. Makes sense to me. If not Collins, who? Where are the CI works that take the place of Collins?
Agree that some of the Bible's and Christianity's biggest enemies are those that embrace both and then teach heresy to the masses who - instead of studying - [what ever happened to "study to show thyself approved unto God, a workman that need not be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth?] accept what they are told, like a newborn babe accepts the mother's teat. Then, when shown how the reality is otherwise, can't explain or defend their position and resort to ad hominem and/or avoidance.
I'll to a search but would you mind posting the link to that "major website" that has rebuffed the BIWF? I often run into detractors who claim DNA evidence "proves" that today's so-called jews are the same as those found in Scripture, by that I mean Judahites. Admittedly, DNA science is a difficult topic to get one's mind around if one's mind is not scientifically trained, like mine, but I will give it my best.
thanks for your attention to these issues.
