Colt, you said ‘… AT THE SAME TIME’.
Jesus explained his ‘cryptic’ saying AFTERWARDS only to the disciples and to those who enquired of him.
You are at fault, admit it and move on but think before you kneejerk your posts next time.
Jesus explaied it:
The Purpose of Jesus’ Parables
(Isaiah 6:1–13; Mark 4:10–12; Luke 8:9–10)
10Then the disciples came to Jesus and asked, “Why do You speak to the people in parables?”
11He replied, “The knowledge of the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven has been given to you, but not to...
Please forgive me but I do not believe your nonsense here. Did you notice there is not a single scripture you posted that supports your claim that Paul is a false apostle? Again from what I see it is your interpretation of these scriptures where the error is. The Apostle Paul does not teach...
Isaiah 6:9-10 is noted with respect to Matthew13:11-15, and is about the "kingdom of heaven", the gospel of Yeshua, the "message" of the "son of man" (Mt 13:24-25), whereas the "message" of the "enemy", the message of Paul, the false prophet (Mt 7:15), is accepted and followed by the "many" (Mt...
I have answered your questions with direct quotes from Yeshua, the "message" of the "son of man" (Mt 13:25-50), yet your response is to come back with the "message" of the "enemy"/"devil" (Mt 13:35 & 39), in the form of Paul's false gospel of calling on the name of the "Lord" (Mt 7:22-23) versus...
So I guess that is a no then? You are bearing witness of yourself calling scripture of the devil so your witness is not true. It simply means that your words are not Gods Words and God Word does not agree with you and is a witness against you. Paul quoting Isaiah 6:9-10 in Acts 28:26-27 is not...
Well, as I have said, Yeshua quoted Isaiah 6:9-10 correctly, and with respect to limiting the number of people with eyes to see and ears to hear, by describing the "kingdom of heaven" in parables, whereas the "wicked"/lawless/sinners, per Daniel 12:10, will be unable to "understand" at the "end...
Like I posted earlier you do not know what you do not know and how can you know when you choose to close your eyes and ears to hearing and seeing Gods Word in fulfillment of Isaiah 6:9-10? You did not even know what scriptures I was referring to when I said it was time for me to put away the...
Paul's father, the "devil"/"serpent", also tried to use his knowledge of the Word of God to entrap Yeshua in the wilderness (Mt 4:6). On the other hand, Yeshua said to "not believe" anyone who says, "he is in the wilderness", as in the case of Paul (Mt 24:26), and yet here you are, believing...
Like I posted earlier you do not know what you do not know and how can you know when you choose to close your eyes and ears to hearing and seeing Gods Word in fulfillment of Isaiah 6:9-10? You did not even know what scriptures I was referring to when I said it was time for me to put away the...
The Romans "crushed" Greece and its 4 elements all at different times, and not all at once, and two at one time. As for Mt 7:6, that is with regards to what is "holy", which in your case, I doubt that you possess any such an element, and you don't appear to portray any understanding of the...
Again, the above makes so little sense theologically that there's simply no point in my giving any shrift to it, and I'm not spouting any kind of "Catholic position" in saying this as I'm really not much into Catholic theology to begin with-- a long story that I'll spare ya.
The "Gentile church" makes no sense other than fulfilling the prophecy of Hosea 3 & Zechariah 11. "Keep the faith", in what? Apparently not the faith in the real "Word" made flesh, the actual "Word of God", which the Gentile church portrays as being "obsolete" and hung to a cross. And...
According to Acts 15:29, Paul was told by James to teach to abstain from "blood" and things strangled. Well, the normal cause of death from being hung on a cross is the strangling off of the blood supply, and the drinking of someone's actual blood would be not to be abstaining from blood. As...
In the months before a Christian awakening I was lucky to get my voice kept saying “you made a rod for your back”. It’s an idiom from the Bible. I was a clueless fool in the run up to being awakened.
Good question. Thanks for asking.
The criterion is mentioned by Jesus. Matthew13:11-16; Matthew 16:17
One needs to have the right heart - that is, a humble heart, which thirsts for truth and righteousness. Matthew 5:3-5 There is no other criterion that exist outside of that, where having the...
I hate to say this but the above is nothing less than arrogant nonsense matched with religious bigotry that Paul warned us about. [see my last post above] You say things as if they were slam-dunk facts when they are opinions which you are told you must believe by the Governing Body.
All...
Not at all. I got where you were coming from. That is exactly the reason for my question.
Interpretations on what an individual says... even you or I... can vary.
That is why listening to the person explain themselves, is better.
The Bible does that. It explains.
For example, the angel...
According to Daniel, it is the "wicked", the lawless, that have no "understanding". Yeshua's referral to those without ears to hear (Isaiah 6:9), referred to in Matthew13:11-14, is with respect to understanding the "kingdom of heaven", not some hypocritical leaven of the Pharisees, as with the...
