    Did you know Jesus is considered as a different god according to scripture?

    Is Modalism just ‘Inverse Trinitarianism’?

    I’m not understanding your point. What are you trying to say? Amos is quoting the words of God from the vision that he saw. If you are stumbling over such simple matters then it’s no wonder that deeper matters are problem although you did well in agreeing two previous posts where I agreed and...

    Is Modalism just ‘Inverse Trinitarianism’?

    Take a look at Jeremiah whose message is the message of God, but the words are the words of Jeremiah. Or Amos 1:1, "The words of Amos", and end in 9:15 with 'thus says the Lord your God".

    Has Anyone ever Seen God?

    this is a recent article from Jw.org i'd like to share. The Watchtower, being a bible based organisation, uses the bible to answer the question Has Anyone Ever Seen God? The Bible’s answer No human has literally seen God. (Exodus 33:20; John 1:18; 1 John 4:12) The Bible says that “God is a...

    The word of God?

    Already present in the oldest of the writing Prophets. Amos 1:1 begins with "The words of Amos, ending in 9:15 with 'Thus say the Lord your God".

    Isaiah 49:21.

    First of all, I wonder why Wilkinson uses a Capital letter "A" for anti-Christ because everyone who is against Christ is anti-Christ. I find Zechariah 8:22 is in connection to Psalms 102:15 and Isaiah 60:3. Zechariah 12:10 shows Jesus was surely dead in connection to Psalms 34:20 and fulfilled...

    Antecedent of Jesus' Death Narrative

    That isn't a prophecy of the crucifixion of jesus. It's supposedly the prophecy of the punishment of Israel for their sins against god. If you didn't cherry picked verses and instead read the whole thing in its context, you would've understood it as that. It even says it in verse 2. As usual...

    Antecedent of Jesus' Death Narrative

    The only condition that a group and especially males as that brotherhood own that is predictable, was the fact that SCIENCE, the state of and all conditions SCIENCE was researched and applied by human males, on behalf of their owned human conscious thoughts. Therefore cause and effect of...

    Antecedent of Jesus' Death Narrative

    If you look at the context of Amos, you will see that it has nothing to do with the crucifixion. It is only a Christian spin on the text. As for darkness at the crucifixion, sure it could have happened, but these accounts say nothing about the DATE of that darkening. Care to address the story...

    Antecedent of Jesus' Death Narrative

    Prove it. The darkened sun of Jesus' crucifixion day was foretold many centuries before Julius Caesar died. So, according to your logic, Virgil must have borrowed the idea from the Biblical prophet Amos. "According to Amos 1:1, (the prophet) Amos prophesied during the reigns of Uzziah, king...

    The rEvolving Doorway

    Amos was a raiser of sheep and a sycamore fig nipper. The Hebrew word noqedhim "sheep raiser " only appears twice in scripture. 2 Kings 3:4 Amos 1:1 , Amos 7:14. Moses was a leader of the nation of Israel, mediator of the Law covenant, prophet, judge, commander, historian, and writer...

    Are Catholics Christians?

    The message was given to Amos and this message from God started in verse 3 Thus says the LORD, “For three transgressions of Damascus and for four I will not revoke its punishment, Because they threshed Gilead with implements of sharp iron.” –Amos 1:3 It does not contradict at all if you read...

    Are Catholics Christians?

    The Pharisees, Scribes, the High Priests and the Sadducees did not write the Gospels. The OT prophets enjoyed a divine pathos, they view the world from God's perspective, but the 'word' spoken by the prophet was both God and man's word. A good example is Amos: 1:1 begins with 'The word of...

    Even if theists are right, they're wrong

    I hate that you have spent so much time in a semi futile effort. 1. Saying one source disagrees with another is irrelevant. One scholar disagreeing with another is not evidence either is wrong. It is also not a claim they disagree about any specific claim. My claiming Hawking's is wrong is...

    Even if theists are right, they're wrong

    Is about Canaan not Hebrews in Egypt. Yohanan Aharoni was against the conquest concept but put forward peaceful integration. However this has been dismissed for the Canaanite origin theory. Namely by Beitak, Dever, and Finklestein who are active archaeologists. Kathleen Kenyon refuted dating...

    Arguments For Christianity

    Your theory doesn't make any sense. Jesus had no control over where and when he would be born. In addition, no one can fulfill prophecy by magically making the sun go dark at noon,. i.e. THE SUN DARKENED AT NOON Circa 750 B.C. According to Amos 1:1, Amos prophesied during the reigns of...

    A Scripture for the Apostasy

    Did you even read the verses Becky made reference to? "Behold, the days come, saith the Lord GOD, that I will send a famine in the land, not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the word of the LORD: And they shall wander from sea to sea, and from the north even to the...

    A Scripture for the Apostasy

    Eisegesis is the art/fallacy of reading into scripture what you want to hear. In this case you've managed to strain credulity to a breaking point while demonstrating a ready willingness to cherry-pick Amos without regard to Amos. You might wish to review Amos 1:1 (also Zech. 14:5). On what...
