    Who Or What Is Israel?

    Totally out of context. This thinking is the religious thinking that Jesus had problems with... Mark 7:13 Making the word of God of none effect through your tradition, which ye have delivered: and many such like things do ye. 1 Cor 7:1 was about (concerning things that ye wrote to me) - of...

    Who Or What Is Israel?

    1 Corinthians 7:1 7 Now concerning the things whereof ye wrote unto me: It is good for a man not to touch a woman. 1 Corinthians 7:29 29 But this I say, brethren, the time is short: it remaineth, that both they that have wives be as though they had none; It's certainly relevant because...

    For trinity believers: Does your world come unravelled if Jesus is not God,but ONLY Gods Son?

    No OT prophecies that refer to the Second Coming apply to Jesus. They apply to Baha'u'llah. I did not say that "The Father and Son living in someone through the Holy Spirit and guiding and changing them" is something NEW that Baha'u'llah brought. The Kingdom of God on earth is not what...

    For trinity believers: Does your world come unravelled if Jesus is not God,but ONLY Gods Son?

    All those OT prophecies applied to Jesus in God's Word, the New Testament. The Father and Son living in someone through the Holy Spirit and guiding and changing them is much more than a new Book of Laws. Jesus Kingdom (or if you like, New World Order) is not what Baha'is envisage. In fact the...

    What is the meaning of Acts 1:9-11?

    Acts 1:9 After he said this, he was taken up before their very eyes, and a cloud hid him from their sight. 10 They were looking intently up into the sky as he was going, when suddenly two men dressed in white stood beside them. 11 “Men of Galilee,” they said, “why do you stand here looking into...

    What is the meaning of Acts 1:9-11?

    You must have somehow missed those places I have just highlighted,,,,,,,,,,,, the ones that tell us that the disciples saw Jesus ascending and that Jesus was hidden from their view after a while by cloud. Actually if they did not see anything ascending then there was no reason for them to be...

    Jesus' Failed Second Coming Prophecy and What this Means for Christianity

    From this site: Son of man (Christianity) - Wikipedia Sixty-nine times in the Synoptic Gospels, Jesus calls himself (the) "Son of man", a Greek expression which in its Aramaic (and Hebrew) background could be an oblique way of indicating the speaker's own self (e.g., Matt 8:20), or else simply...

    For trinity believers: Does your world come unravelled if Jesus is not God,but ONLY Gods Son?

    The OT saints are going to be in the Kingdom of God, so why wouldn't John the Baptist also be in the Kingdom of God? Luke 13:28 In that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth, when you see Abraham and Isaac and Jacob and all the prophets in the kingdom of God but you yourselves cast...

    Lazarus and the rich man.

    At Luke 16:14 Jesus 'IS' addressing the money-loving covetous Pharisees. They are the 'rich man' at Luke 16:19 At Luke 16:18 the Pharisees did Not fulfill becoming Christ's figurative bride. To be Christ's bride/wife they would first have to be released from the old Law. The Constitution of the...

    JESUS, God, the Ordinal First and Last

    Philippians 2:5-11 The equal status with God and the choosing to be a servant is the relevance. A little lower than the angels yet equal with God implies that choosing a life of service is what made him lower than, which in turn is the reason for his exaltation. We are elohim and each of us...

    glad U bit, #1. scripture, Hebrews 2:9 "But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels for the suffering of death, crowned with glory and honour; that he by the grace of God should taste death for every man." there are only three entitles... correct. 1.

    With bafflement upon bafflement!

    Correct, and the Lord Jesus is the Law, and MEDIATOR of the NEW COVENANT, as Moses represented the law, and was the MEDIATOR of it. and all the prophets was until John. Luke 16:16 "The law and the prophets were until John: since that time the kingdom of God is preached, and every man presseth...

    Jehovah's Witness=Unbiblical Religion!

    You took this parable and you added a whole bunch of stuff that is not found in scripture. I see you were either making yourself your own God or making yourself a pope, or an authority to interpret scripture, and add a bunch of stuff to it that isn't there. How do I know that what you're...

    Jehovah's Witness=Unbiblical Religion!

    JESUS is relating an illustration about a rich man and a poor beggar named Lazarus. The rich man represents the religious leaders who are favored with spiritual privileges and opportunities, and Lazarus pictures the common people who hunger for spiritual nourishment. Jesus continues his story...

    Watchtower: Jesus is not "a god"!

    Gentile Christians have been joined with the Jewish Christians as God's people. (John 10:16) The Jews under the old covenant have been exiled because of their deeds and they are not under the New Covenant even if they are still loved because of Abraham etc and God will keep the covenant with...

    Watchtower: Jesus is not "a god"!

    Did Paul preach to keep Circumcision, the covenant kept by the "father of nations/Gentiles", Abraham, (Zechariah 11:10) or to avoid unclean food/swine, or to avoid idols? Were the nations/Gentiles, in which the "house of Israel" is now 'scattered' (Ezekiel 36:17-19), taught to keep "My...

    Watchtower: Jesus is not "a god"!

    Love of course is more than the don'ts in the Law. Love is a positive thing towards our neighbour. The blood of Jesus is the blood of the New Covenant (Matt 26:28) which came in when Jesus offered up His life and God made it an offering for sin (Isa 53:10), a life that was poured out unto death...

    The Dietary Laws

    It was in reference to Gentile converts, who he said need not follow the letter of Jewish Law (613 Commandments). Paul also repeats this in his epistles. See above. Also: Luke 16:16: “The Law and the prophets were in force until John.” Romans 6:14: “Sin will no longer have power over...

    JWs & The Bible

    Why is there a period of time before Jesus would receive the scepter? If Jesus is subduing in the midst of His enemies then they are not under His feet and so God is subduing for Him when He has the sceptre and so is ruling? This sounds as if it is when the word of God, the Law went out from...
