    JESUS, God, the Ordinal First and Last

    And there are many events in the chapter example, 2And it shall come to pass in that day, saith the LORD of hosts, that I will cut off the names of the idols out of the land, and they shall no more be remembered: and also I will cause the prophets and the unclean spirit to pass out of the land...

    JESUS, God, the Ordinal First and Last

    No, not in this chapter. It's all one prophecy. Here: ( using your preferred translation ) 1The burden of the word of the LORD for Israel, saith the LORD, which stretcheth forth the heavens, and layeth the foundation of the earth, and formeth the spirit of man within him. 2Behold, I will...

    JESUS, God, the Ordinal First and Last

    :thumbsup: Good! The story in Acts 2 does not describe mourning as they would for a first born son. So, Zechariah 12:1-9 doesn't match the story in Acts 2. :heavycheck: You admitted that yesterday. The last part of Zechariah 12:10 doesn't match Acts 2. :heavycheck: You admitted that this...

    JESUS, God, the Ordinal First and Last

    :thumbsup: Good. In Acts 2, they were in Jerusalem and were not fighting against Jerusalem. Now let's read Zechariah 12:3: And in that day will I make Jerusalem a burdensome stone for all people: all that burden themselves with it shall be cut in pieces, though all the people of the earth be...

    With bafflement upon bafflement!

    "he only comes ... " This is a facinating idea. Can you elaborate? More scripture the better. I'm not seeing this represented in Acts 1 anywhere. I see something like it maybe coming from Romans; but, the return isn't mentioned. :confused: OK. Zecharia. It's a very dense little book. We...

    With bafflement upon bafflement!

    You say, 'Jesus would need to be chosen by the LORD to be ruler and he wasn't'. As l see it, John the Baptist was sent as the forerunner to the Messiah and his prophetic mission was accepted by the people. John pointed to Jesus, and witnessed his baptism in the Holy Spirit. This was not men...

    cause-and-effect: "cause" require evidence too

    I'd say that it's the other way around. You've learned biblical apologetics. I learned that as well as a believer. Eventually, once I had mastered the scriptures sufficiently, I could see that the apologetics were specious argumentation. According to Christianity, Jesus had no human father...

    cause-and-effect: "cause" require evidence too

    Whatever your background, there appears to have been an absence of good teaching! Below is an explanation of how Jesus does fulfil prophecy as the son of David. The mistake that many commentators make when looking at Matthew and Luke is to miss the connection between the two. The Genealogies...

    Psalm 110: The most quoted psalm in the NT.

    Vengeance is for emotionally immature animalistic beings. Yes, Jesus allowed Peter and his followers to believe in him as the spiritual deliverer which he was. But his kingdom was/is spiritual, not material or nationalistic Israel. Jesus left without fulfilling a number of rigid...

    Psalm 110: The most quoted psalm in the NT.

    Jesus is, lMO, the Jewish Messiah, and was recognised as such by Peter [John 6:69]. Just because many Jews rejected Jesus as the one anointed by God to be Messiah does not mean that it will not be Jesus returning as King of Kings to bring vengeance on his enemies [Zechariah 12:9,10].

    Are you a liar?

    Messianic Jews are a fringe subset. Not significant. You could say they are just another sect of an already crowded collection of Christians whose beliefs disagree. the Old Testament is theirs, and Christians abducted it and changed the meaning of many of its words and stories. It's absurd...

    Are you a liar?

    There are Jews that accept Jesus as Christ, and Jews who do not. In many 'Torah 'Jewish households it is anathema to even mention the name of Jesus. I also believe that many Jews refuse to read or study the NT because they have preconceptions about the language and contents. The reason l say...

    The Plurality of God, The First and the Last

    I’m sorry, but I can’t accept Paul as a false Apostle. If that were true, God wouldn’t have kept Paul’s 14 letters in His Word!

    The Plurality of God, The First and the Last

    So, your response is to quote from the false prophet Paul. Well, that would be fine for those with a false hope, who are on a wide path to "destruction" (Matthew 7:13), but for someone trying to escape "death", it would be more appropriate to switch to righteousness, versus, embracing...

    In accordance with the scriptures?????

    'Zechariah 12:10 is applied to the Messiah the Son of Joseph in the Talmud (Sukk.52 a) and so is verse 12, there being, however, a difference of opinion whether the mourning is caused by the death of the Messiah the Son of Joseph, or else on account of the evil concupiscence (Yetser haRa).'...

    In accordance with the scriptures?????

    Now of course Maimonides did teach and believe in 'a' resurrection, did he not? But of course I don't think it was aligned with the 2nd appearance of the Messiah. A very interesting concept. Anyway, have a nice evening.

    In accordance with the scriptures?????

    What verse in Zechariah 12:9-14 specifically says that the Messiah will come back from the dead? Please quote it for us. Thanks.

    In accordance with the scriptures?????

    The coming of Jesus was, as John's Gospel tells us, the coming of 'the true Light' [John 1:9]. The Lord enlightens the understanding 'For the law was given by Moses, but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ' [John 1:17]. What did Jesus have to say about his own resurrection? He said [Matthew...

    The Quran confirms parts of the Bible.

    It was the prayer of Ishmael's mother which was heard by God. Ishmael was to be blessed, but on the other hand, according to Zechariah 12:9, any who come against Jerusalem will be "destroyed", and this would be those who come against Judah and Jerusalem after they have been "restored" (Joel...
