I was attempting to inject a bit of humor speaking about John eating bugs (which he did) and having uncut/wild hair. I doubt John spent any time primping in the wilderness. The point being is Moses wrote a law that states it is a sin to pick up a bug/insect. That is not a law from God, that is a...
The locust was a permissible food for the Israelites to eat. Leviticus 11:21,22 says:
"However, you may eat the following kinds of flying insects that walk on all fours: those having jointed legs above their feet for hopping on the ground. Of these you may eat any kind of locust, katydid...
Locust are "clean" insects per Leviticus 11:20-25. I don't know the source of your information, but you might want to hit the reset button, and get a larger type of print, and a better source bible. The vow of the Nazarene is to not cut their hair. Yeshua did not contest sacrifice per se, but...

2ndpillar I hope all is well.. Is not "Israel" the Church!? Romans 9:6 It is not as though God’s word had failed. For not all who are descended from Israel are Israel.
Two (2) Israel's! One is a “spiritual Israel.”
We are talking bout ISAIAH, the metaphor that HE used in his writings. Metaphors vary in what they mean when you go from work to work -- one author will mean one thing and another author will mean another thing. IF you want to know what the metaphor of the servant means in the book of Isaiah...
My Servant is a specified refence to David, as in Ezekiel 34:34 & 37:24, with respect to David to be the king over the combined house of Israel, which will include Judah united with Ephraim/Israel. Right now, Judah and Ephraim/Israel are still in the judgment phase of Hosea 5 and are not...
And the Pharisees ‘knew’ didn’t they and understood not? . The second coming has already taken place while the current ‘Pharisees’ are still flipping the pages and using every quote they can find to try and deny it.
Jesus said ‘blessed are the pure in heart for they shall see God”. He didn’t...
He came to be slaughtered then -but the kingdoms of the Earth will become his kingdoms -literally.
It has not happened yet.
The following is only a fraction of scriptures which describe it -and what precedes it....
Zech 14:1Behold, the day of the Lord is coming,
And your [a]spoil will be...
They're all One, the idea people see them as separate, is why the Tribulation happens soon...
Then after the Canaanites/Babylonites who believe in separate Gods for each religion, shall be removed from reality (Zechariah14:21).
Then when the land is cleansed, the CPU places the New...
You've begun separating the truth, but have not recognized all of it. You also ingested certain falsehoods.
So let's start with the truth you attest to:
Matthew 6:24
None is able to serve two lords, for either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will hold to the one, and despise...
Blessed are the hungry, for they shall be filled.
But you still have to work for it, like on earth. Is this like the Egyptian afterlife, where life just goes on as normal? Still have servants, bills to pay, etc?
I thought the entire point of going to heaven was to have suffering relieved...
The "kingdom of God", whereas everyone has their own vines and fig trees (Micah 4:4), would be for the righteous, and the wicked, those who love mammon, would most likely be too lazy and without knowledge to grow their own food, and most probably wouldn't make it into that kingdom. There would...
Jesus said that the true worshipers would no longer worship God in Jerusalem. (John 4:21-22) So that proves the Law is fulfilled. Because the Law commands worship be made to God in the place God has chosen out of all the tribes of Israel to put His name there. (Deuteronomy 16:11) Which is...
The pass time of America is sacrificing animals and grilling them every week end . As for after the "awesome day of the LORD", when the nations/Gentiles will keep Sukkot (Zechariah 14:16), the "cooking pot in Jerusalem and in Judah will be holy to the LORD of hosts; and all who sacrifice will...
The Canaanites tended to follow a fertility religious and their comfort their children's lives and might sacrifice children for prosperity. How different that is from today or those who followed remains a thought question. People are people.
They are of Cain, a product of the false god. They even slipped in during the tragedy Noah escaped.
Genesis:
And Adam knew his wife again; and she bare a son, and called his name Seth: For God, said she, hath appointed me another seed instead of Abel, whom Cain slew.
Cain was not of Adam...
This goes back to the culture of the main Canaanite tribes of the North were trading commerce tribes, and the Hebrews were a pastoral Canaanite tribe of the South.
For Zechariah14:21 the footnote in the NIV says there is an alternative reading. Instead of 'Canaanite' the word could be 'Merchant'. In that case it reads "...in that day there will no longer be a merchant in the house of..." rather than "...in that day there will no longer be a Canaanite...
The teaching of the Law was introduced to Sons of Israel and they swore to uphold it. Canaan tribes had worship that used another Gods and unacceptable practices like human sacrifices cannibalism idol worship , e.t.c.. , things that would sway Israeli from the path of the Law. That was main...
This just simply does not fit in history if interpreted anything close to literal. The Hebrews were a pastoral Canaanite tribe in the Judaean Hills of South Palestine.
Like other expressions like this it was more like a prophetic curse against a rival tribe.
