Kabbala is literal Gnostic nonsense that claims God Himself is broken and salvation can be obtained through sin, and the Talmud its based off of is founded in the rejection of Christ
No, its about achieving salvation through knowledge, and the belief that the Material World is inherently evil in its creation and is the product of a malign deity who wants to enslave men. That alone is bad enough considering it makes the Creator the villain, but there are even worse forms of it running around than the vanilla version, culminating in Kabbala. Around the time of the Early Church, there was a bizarre offshoot of Gnosticism that grew out of Antinomianism (the belief that Christ abolished the Moral Law in addition to the Levitical practices, and therefore following the Moral Law is no longer required for Salvation, which sadly re-emerged in Protestantism despite Luther himself condemning it), which misinterprets scripture by claiming the God of the OT is evil and the God of the NT is good, and therefore salvation can only be obtained by transgressing the Law of the OT. Its overtly Satanic and replaces the Repentance taught by Christ with the Libertinism taught by Lucifer. Sabbatean-Frankism, which has basically replaced all jewish mysticism, is essentially extreme Antinomian Gnosticism in everything except name. Its also rather interesting that Talmudic Judaism basically appeared on the stage in the same time frame all forms of Gnosticism were seemingly in decline, so I cant help but wonder if the Gnostics shape-shifted into what we call jews today in order to escape rightful persecution from Christians for their abject degeneracy.
It *should* be that way, but I think there increasingly large amounts of Protestants (or people who call themselves such, unlike Catholicism which has established dogmas) imbibing gnostic ideas about God.
The problem with Protestants is that they don't read the Bible. Instead the hippy care free pastor from Bible college talks about love and relationships with God. I've been to 2 different Evangelical churches for different functions. What they're taught is that you have a relationship with God and he loves you no matter what. If you read the Bible, it says that his love is highly conditional, and if you piss him off, he'll destroy you.
When I was a kid, I really did think God was different in the OT and that he wouldn't do stuff like that because of Jesus. I had a child like understanding at the time. Then I read the Bible several times and got clarity. The vast majority of Protestants never leave the child like understanding phase.
