I don't believe that. Why would I? The argument for resurrection is that some people say that some other people saw Jesus when he was supposedly dead, and that when a rock was rolled away, there was no body to be seen. There would need to be a suspension f the laws of nature to revivify a body...
Within Judaism, here's a list that many to most observant Jews tend to believe are Messianic:
The Sanhedrin will be re-established (Isaiah 1:26)
Once he is King, leaders of other nations will look to him for guidance (Isaiah 2:4)
The whole world will worship the One God of Israel (Isaiah...
The Messiah is not solely a Jewish case and hypothesis, so they are not the best to interpret the requirements.
The Messiah is not coming to restore the Jews to their former position of chosen ones. He is a world redeemer.
All the major world religions are expecting a Messiah, a world...
In my opinion, as the Messiah is a Jewish case and hypothesis, they are the best to interpret the requirements. We have seen how badly the gospel authors have misinterpreted "prophecies".
Anyway, for many of the criteria and especially for Zechariah8:23 there can be no misinterpretation.
Criteria for Messiah.
1. He must be a Jew (Deut 17:15, Num 24:17) - The only condition fulfilled by Jesus.
2. He must be a direct descendant of King David (Isaiah 11:1) through King Solomon (I Proverbs 22:8-10), only if Solomon kept his faith in God Yahweh (II Chronicles 7 :19) which, however...
Rambling incoherent ridiculous response.
Paraphrased from Abraham Lincoln concerning slavery: The only moral exchange or purchase is when both parties agree and benefit.
Yes, the Bible considers slavery moral and legal as long as it is not from your own tribe. Foreign slaves is OK.
Your posts are all over the place. Can you try to focus on just one point at a time?
You start off with a rambling statement that getting a loan is the same as slavery. Are you kidding? No, when I got my home loan I knew what I was doing. I was getting a place to live where my...
I don't know, you enter into self-induced slavery whenever you sign a contract for paying off a vehicle or a house. When one ends up not paying, they end up making a false witness and often committing theft, but in the Progressive world, that is supposedly fine as a reparation due to "slavery"...
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...
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...
My present belief is that the description of Jesus and the description of the Messiah in the Old Testament.
Should that matter? Most Jews do not. Does that matter to you?
Why does that need explaining? What would need explaining is not the ways that the two accounts might overlap, but the...
Each religious group thinks they are the chosen ones to survive; the problem with this is that I believe we could show most don't keep to the Laws already set...
Where we can blatantly show the world is already following anti-Christ's doctrine, and most are not wise enough to get it...
Not sure of anywhere scripturally that stated these things, these are clauses of expectations...
As far as I understand Yeshua can be seen to be a return of David reincarnated, so it is possible to fulfil all the aspects of him being of that line.
John the Baptist was Elijah (Matthew...
This is a list I found which is common among Jews who reject Jesus as Messiah. Its comprehensive IMOP.
1. The Messiah is born of two human parents, as we said. But Jesus, according to Christian theology, was born of the union between a human woman and Gd (as were many other pagan deities, see...
I like this one in Zephaniah 3:8
‘So keep yourselves in expectation of* me,’+ declares Jehovah,
‘Until the day when I rise up to take plunder,*
For my judicial decision is to gather nations, to assemble kingdoms,
To pour out on them my indignation, all my burning anger;+
For by the fire of my...
From both testaments, lawlessness is sinlessness, not teaching salvation by faith. Both testaments teach salvation by faith, "Those who have faith in the Lord or as Mount Zion, which cannot be moved, but abides forever."
Truth is not dependent on what BilliardsBall believes, or what the false prophet Paul, or the "worthless shepherd", Peter (Zechariah 11:17), might have said. The "many" of Matthew 7:13-25 believe in the wide path of the false prophets, which leads to "destruction". On the other hand, according...
According to the Bible, there always was only one true way of worship - Zechariah8:23, and I not aware of anywhere in the Bible saying that has changed - John 4:24 ; Romans 10:2 ;1 Corinthians 10:20, 21 ; Ephesians 4:4-6
