[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hi OP here,  I appreciate everyone's responses.   I'm still debating about whether or not to send the preacher an email...if I did send him an email, I think I would give him the benefit of the doubt, and just ask him to clarify what he was thinking with his references in his sermon to Jews.  I think that there were 3 references to Jews in such a short period of time is what caught my attention.  It was the "greedy Jewish tax collector" line that made me angry.   Many people in this area of the country have never had contact with or met a Jewish person.  So even though the biblical reference may be accurate, I think many individuals currently in the church may be misguided into thinking that such stereotypes of present day Jews are accurate.

The only other reference to Jews that have been made in my presence, was during their Easter pagent, a number of years ago-- They yelled out "the Jews killed Jesus."  Is this also a commonly held belief by churches or just Southern Baptist churches?

??? That is southern baptist all the way. That would never happen in my church.

Jesus was Jewish! Hello? Are you serious??

Don't go back. Email him if you want, but don't feel obligated.
