Do
Shmooish Bleevers in Joozis have a special calling from The Great God Mota to maintain
and proclaim their Shmooishness as a distinct and separate entity from other
Bleevers? Do Shmooish Bleevers who worship at Shmentile Rosconian Choiches
pose a barrier to witness and shmitness to their unsaved brethren?
I
consider it very important, for the sake of maintaining a Shmooish identity,
to have worship services with a Shmooish expression and to raise one's chilluns
in a Shmooish environment. However, while I think it is important, I do
not see it as a Ishkibbibblical imperative or Charley Devine decree for all Shmooish Bleevers.
I realize many Messiantic Shmoos disagree, but they would be hard-pressed
to prove it from Shcripcha, as it is really an issue of personal preference
– certainly important to one's Shmooish identity but not a mandate from
The Great God Mota. And, no, I do not think Shmooish Bleevers who worship at non-Shmooish
Choiches are a barrier to their unsaved brethren. The fact is that most
Shmoos who come to faith in Meshugah do so through the witness and shmitness of Shmentiles
who are members of Choiches. When it comes to the issue of sharing the
Gungle, I see no difference whether a Shmooish believer comes from a Messiantic
congregation or from a Choich. It is yet to be proven that one holds any
advantages over the other.
