    Jesus - First Born?

    The context of Romans 9:13 relates to predestination, which is not supported by Malachi since he lived after the time of Esau. (For [the children] being not yet born, neither having done any good or evil, that the purpose of God according to election might stand, not of works, but of him that...

    Jesus - First Born?

    .... and Malachi 1:3 corresponds to Romans 9:13 (Often in Scripture 'hate' means to love to a lesser degree )

    Jesus - First Born?

    Who [is] this that cometh from Edom, with dyed garments from Bozrah? this [that is] glorious in his apparel, travelling in the greatness of his strength? I that speak in righteousness, mighty to save. Wherefore [art thou] red in thine apparel, and thy garments like him that treadeth in the...

    Denial by non-Muslims of the Qur'an's commands to commit violence.

    There is no "Edomite issue" regarding the Jewish claims to the Holy Land. Which are irrelevant to Jewish claims to the Holy Land. The Lord knew that these things would happen and still gave the Holy Land as an everlasting promise to the Jews. Which also has nothing to do the promise to the...

    Denial by non-Muslims of the Qur'an's commands to commit violence.

    The bearing is that there is no point in contesting the Muslim claim because of the Roman/Herodian/Edomite issue. No, that's not the case. Edomites were forced to convert to Judaism by John Hyrcanus. And I hated Esau, and laid his mountains and his heritage waste for the dragons of the...

    Israel (is) my son...my firstborn.

    You are reaching. The promise of Gen 3:15 was between the seed of the "serpent"/"devil", and that of the woman, who was to be ruled" by her "husband" (Gen 3:16). Do you submit to your husband, assuming you have a male husband? As for genealogies, well there are two different genealogies, one...

    God not liking people?

    I think it's possible for the Christian God to hate someone. For example, the Bible says that God hated Esau (Malachi 1:3). Besides the example of Esau, is it not reprehensible of the Christian God to turn a blind eye to the Holocaust and do nothing to intervene? Is it not despicable of the...

    Paul's Opinion or the Holy Ghost?

    Doing right makes you righteous. Being born of a Jewish woman does not make you Jewish. That is simply a tradition of the Jews (Talmud). As for the descendants of Rahab, as with the descendants of Noah and Abraham, some were righteous, and some were not. Apparently, Edom/Essau (Malachi 1:3)...

    How can the Jew reject, Jesus, Muhammad, Bab and Baha'u'llah?

    Jesus was the man of sorrows who was wounded for our transgressions. Psalm 2:7 says that the Messiah is the Son of God. Daniel 9:24-26 says that the Messiah died before destruction of the sanctuary. Malachi 1: 3 mentions John the Baptist, the messenger of Jesus sent before him.

    Christianity vs. Islam

    The main difference is that in the OT of the Bible "God" is a group of beings, but in the Quran Allah is a single being. Also the idea of unconditional love isn't well supported in the Bible: And I hated Esau, and laid his mountains and his heritage waste for the dragons of the wilderness...

    Calvinism's strongest Biblical text

    Parse it any way you like.. Its a shameful story.

    Calvinism's strongest Biblical text

    Did you notice that the article you linked to says..."So, considering the context, God loving Jacob and hating Esau has nothing to do with the human emotions of love and hate." Why did God love Jacob and hate Esau (Malachi 1:3; Romans 9:13)? You misunderstand the verse "As it is written, Jacob...

    Calvinism's strongest Biblical text

    The article you referenced seems to agree somewhat with what I've been saying : "When studying the Bible, it is critically important to always study the context of a particular Bible verse or passage. In these instances, the prophet Malachi and the apostle Paul are using the name 'Esau' to refer...

    If the Bible was first discovered in the Qumran caves near the Dead Sea...

    The Edomites were forced to convert and be circumcised by the Maccabees during the Maccabean Revolt. Idumea is the country inhabited by the descendants of Edom. This has NOTHING to do with Muhammed.. He wasn't born for another 800 years.

    If the Bible was first discovered in the Qumran caves near the Dead Sea...

    You seem confused. Billiard Ball had 200 quotes. Where in the Torah can Edom, the one God hated (Malachi 1:3), convert to Judaism? You are mixing up the proclamations of the false prophet Mohammad on converting by use of the sword with the Torah. Where can anyone become of the "house of...

    Science is a false God

    Daniel was never in Babylon.. The Book of Daniel was written about 165 BC.. Years and years after the Babylonian exile. The second part of Isaiah differs in style from the work of First Isaiah, and was written by an anonymous author during the Babylonian Exile, more than a hundred years after...

    Science is a false God

    The book of Isaiah had two authors many years apart. The last 26 chapters are completely different in style.

    Science is a false God

    Incorrect. Case in point, Edom as a nation was prophesied to become like Sodom and Gomorrah, desolated for all time. (Jer 49:7-22; compare Isa 34:9-15.) This began to see its fulfillment about the middle of the sixth century B.C.E., under the Babylonian king Nabonidus. According to C. J...

    Were biblical humans less violent than modern humans?

    But why bother with the Bible? It's pretty clearly propaganda written by a people who were conquered by everyone who happened by (old testament) or an obvious scam (new testament).
