    Religion - Some Questions

    Trinitarians do not dare quote this verse and yet it is the pinnacle point of Phil 2, that though Jesus Christ was EMPOWERED with the Spirit of God and could have made himself earthly rich, an earthly king, been a world military leader, made himself ‘A God to humanity’ - Almighty God, the...

    Religion - Some Questions

    Thank you Soapy for your ^ above ^ reply. I find as far as Jesus' 'mindset' that his 'mindset' is that he is mild tempered, lowly in heart as per Matthew 11:29-30 Jesus displayed being humble - Zechariah 9:9

    By the way -- if you claim to be a Christian...

    The Bible is inspired by the Holy Spirit. How you translate that will vary person to person. "If there is a claim in the NT that it's beneficial to read the scriptures, that statement is confined to the Tanakh, since there was no NT when that claim was written" I’m not sure that holds. The...

    By the way -- if you claim to be a Christian...

    There is no claim in the bible that the bible is inerrant. If there is a claim in the NT that it's beneficial to read the scriptures, that statement is confined to the Tanakh, since there was no NT when that claim was written. The trouble with that is that no one of the Jewish faith would have...

    WHO IS GOD'S TRUE ISRAEL IN THE NEW COVENANT?

    Yep Gods Word is amazing but it is hidden from those who do not believe it. For me personally I would disagree. The new testament comes from the old testament scriptures. Together they are the Word of God. According to the scriptures, the name "Israel" is only a name given by God to all those...

    WHO IS GOD'S TRUE ISRAEL IN THE NEW COVENANT?

    Funny, that, hey? My point is that we can safely ignore the NT if we want to understand the God of the Jewish nation. Let me give you a well-known example of a contrived "prophecy", the virgin birth of Jesus in Matthew and Luke, based on Isaiah 7:14. The word in the Tanakh is ʿalmâ, young...

    Another irrefutable proof that God created all things using mathematical induction. And a proof that The Bible is the word of God.

    Bart Ehrman has a whole book of them. Jesus Interrupted Other Differences in the Passion Narratives These then are just some of the key discrepancies in the accounts of Jesus’ last week of life, his death, and his resurrection. They are by no means the only differences, but instead of...

    Does the Apostle Paul claim that Jesus Christ, the holy anointed man, is Almighty God?

    Smoke and mirrors. Anyone can cherry-pick verses and interpret those verses any way they choose to in order to TRY to prove their points. Examples of such are all over this thread. However, the fact that there is no agreement as to what the verses mean demonstrates that someone is in error, or...

    Does the Apostle Paul claim that Jesus Christ, the holy anointed man, is Almighty God?

    well let's see what the bible says about that. Genesis 49:9 "Judah is a lion's whelp: from the prey, my son, thou art gone up: he stooped down, he couched as a lion, and as an old lion; who shall rouse him up?" Genesis 49:10 "The sceptre shall not depart from Judah, nor a lawgiver from between...

    Mashiach according to Rabbi Hillel

    Last week I emailed the course's professor with the following questions: It makes little sense that Rabbi Hillel would have actually thought that Chizkiyahu was the Mashiach given that we don't need Rav Yosef (with all due respect, of course) to bring any Meshichi verse from after Chizkiyahu's...

    Mashiach according to Rabbi Hillel

    So, true to my bli neder, I opened up my paper for the first time in over a month and got back to work. Once again, I'm stumped over understanding Rav Yosef's answer. Outline of the problem: It is very very difficult to think that Rabbi Hillel actually thought that the Mashiach came in the time...

    According to the Gospels, Jesus entered Jerusalem just before Pesach, on the 10 Nisan, in what is described by commentators as the 'triumphal entry' into Jerusalem. I believe that this was the point at which the Pascal lamb was chosen and taken in. I also believe that the 10 Nisan that year was...

    This is truly an awesome list. I have no idea what to say other than that. I've never encountered this before. I need to look at each one carefully. I will do that then respond. Thank you very very much. Sincerely,

    From my perspective, an honest person would admit to numerous Tanakh prophecies all being fulfilled in the life of Jesus Christ. And, this is discounting His second coming in glory. Can you honestly say that all these prophecies were not fulfilled by Jesus, as recorded in the NT? Prophecies of...

    Myth Or History?

    There's a couple of religion that claim their guy fulfilled all sorts of prophecies, then I take a look at some of them. The ones I look at all have one thing in common... They were all just one verse taken out of context. Like with Zechariah 9:9. What is the chapter talking about? I don't know...

    This doesn't address anything I said in my reply.

    Myth Or History?

    No problem, Ella. You sound like you are more versed in this subject so let me direct you to the information done by Peter Stoner, Chairman of the departments of mathematics and astronomy at Pasadena City College until 1953; Chairman of the science division, Westmont College, 1953–57; Professor...

    So, neiher the LORD, the-father, nor Jesus chose Jesus to be king. It didn't happen. :thumbsup: BUZZZZZZZ. That's a false statement. Sorry. It is scripturally false. Isaiah 53 does NOT say there is a suffering servant. The suffering servant is completely in the past tense. The TRUTH is...

    It was uncommon for a king to ride on a donkey in those times; Solomon rode on a donkey and he was the richest of all kings of the patriarchs. It is a reference to being humble.

    No. Poetic language does not need to be exact. When one is overly literal one refutes the Bible.
