-----Original Message----- Shalom Friends, I recently discovered that I have been put on Rabbi Moshe Koniuchowsky's "hit list" of Anti-Missionaries and those who deny the deity of Y'shua. I am actually second on the list. This list has proven to be a good source for finding allies and friends. http://www.yourarmstoisrael.org/misc/?page=deny This email is also being sent out to others on Koniuchowsky's list. I am a bit disappointed that Moshe did not read my article on the Redemption of Israel http://www.bnai-el-chai.com/redemption.htm because then he might have rated me as an "AM" (for Anti-Missionary) instead of a "D" (for denies deity). He has also said "These leaders are listed because they have some degree of influence and were at one time well known in the messianic community." Though I am flattered by this, I seriously doubt that I am "well known" or that my influence extends much beyond a couple hundred people (down from a high of 745 people). As a result of being posted on Koniuchowsky's website, however, I have gained a number of new subscribers to my occasional newsletters. Maybe the old Hollywood adage is true: "Any publicity is good publicity. At times I forward material from other people -- I even forward material that I do not necessarily agree with (sometimes even without any of my own commentary). I am very secure and I am not threatened by knowledge. This is why I am always mystified by those who get offended (by something that I have said or that I have forwarded) and drop off of my list. Instead of being offended it might be a better idea to share your disagreements. I am always open to learning something. It is only the insecure who are afraid of having their ideas challenged.
Kol tov,
