    Messiah and Mahdi in Bible?

    Well we may need to agree to disagree on this. I'll look up the Scripture, but I believe that to be a Christian we need to believe that resurrection is litteral.

    Strong's Concordance Ruins Lives- Do your part

    If one looks at Strong's and takes a 2nd century meaning, one certainly can ruin a life to whatever you think Hades is. Since the writers of the Greek Texts in particular are talking to non-Christian Greeks of the first Century and to Jews of the first century it is wise to filter out...

    Does God's NAME appear in the original inspired Greek Scriptures?

    Gee, your thread says Greek words have several meanings each; Strong's shows several meanings and derivations of each word. I'll address your other post in more detail.

    Did God create evil?

    We is basically the human race since Adam. If you managed to choose righteousness and avoid sin, you saved yourself from the misery that others who do not avoid sin manage to bring onto themselves. God in the Bible follows what He told us; His logic. Where he takes life the punishments of...

    Does God's NAME appear in the original inspired Greek Scriptures?

    Here is what the Strong's I have access to says of the Greek word for God: It looks like a definition to me.

    Messiah and Mahdi in Bible?

    Ok are you talking Reincarnation or what in relation to John who represented Elijah? Are you talking reincarnation or resurrection in relation to Jesus? I do not believe the two are comparable.

    Did God create evil?

    Well I'm glad you chose a path of life ie no theft of any sort, no lies about or to people, no murder, no fraud and no adultery. These things are what leads to misery and are sin. Adam and Eve left us open to those sins. Jesus gives us hope that we can overcome the desire to commit them...

    Messiah and Mahdi in Bible?

    Jews do not believe in reincarnation and it is not a Christian teaching, therefore another explanation is needed. Since Elisha received the gift of Prophesy from Elijah who gave Elisha his share of the holy spirit, it is more likely that God gave that same portion of spirit to JtB.

    Messiah and Mahdi in Bible?

    Here she may represent either the global set of believers or the Bible itself as so many in the church persecute those who practice by what it says.

    Does God's NAME appear in the original inspired Greek Scriptures?

    YHWH has a real problem with believers forgetting or ignoring His Name. Every time the Apostles wrote including a Hebrew Scripture they included the Tetragramation. Here are but two of the scriptures on forgetting God's name.* Jer 23:27 Which think to cause my people to forget my name by...

    Genesis 3:24...where's the flaming sword?

    God gave us one job take care of what He created. His job was not to take away our free will but, for us to use it properly. If we didn't want to be little gods we sure found a way to do it. I blame us; our greed, our desire for shortcuts, our propensity to use sin as a means to an end...

    Adam and Eve Equal Partners

    Their pattern of sin and their punishment is ours to bear until Messiah returns ours to a godly society where God rules all of us.

    Adam and Eve Equal Partners

    Is the Hebrew: mâshal? Strong's Hebrew Dictionary says it means: A primitive root; to rule: - (have, make to have) dominion, governor, X indeed, reign, (bear, cause to, have) rule (-ing, -r), have power. Perhaps govern is better interpretation but, in any post-fall union one must have a...

    Messiah and Mahdi in Bible?

    Prophesy for God is more warning and admonition than prediction of future events. Though the "If" in each gives alternative futures, it is more about the spiritual state of the people and leaders. Do the Jews think Moses is going to be born in the flesh again? I'd not heard that belief of...

    Messiah and Mahdi in Bible?

    I must disagree. Jesus said "If you will" ... John was Elijah. That means to me that the spirit that Elijah gave to Elisha lay also on John to admonish at least the people to follow Jehovah. Well to tell you the truth I'd not given it much thought. However, I got a surprise today...

    Did God create evil?

    There were two roads we could take. We chose the long and painful one with judgement as our impetus instead of God and His loving Kindness. God encompasses all our pathways, all our choices. And as scripture indicates Leaves us a way out.

    Did God create evil?

    I think God decided what evil was for this universe of ours. Whether he created that concept with the tree of the knowledge of Good and Evil; or judgement; ... He did create judgement - the willingness to decide between good and evil. like I've said: nakedness was not evil in God's sight but...
