Arminius as Messiah

dingdao

The eternal Tao cannot be told - Tao Te Ching
In 9 bce Arminius, Roman name of a Germanic Prince, united the Germanic Tribes in a ambush of Varus. Varus led 3 Legions some 15000 men. The Romans had made Arminius a Roman and given him time to "acclimatize" to Rome to make the conquest easier. So, Varus actually followed Arminius' instructions to help put down a "rebellion". To get to the rebellion, Varus needed to march his men single file along the back trails.
Three days later Varus sent his head to Augustus Caesar. Three Legions had been totally annihilated.

When the Temple is rebuilt,

When all the Israelite tribes are reunited and gathered into their homeland,

When the Israelites are free to study and practice in their own land,

When the Israelites have a king,

When there is peace for the Israelites,

When the nations know that G-d is G-d of the whole universe,

Then we know the Moshiach has come.


Nothing less than this.

It's like, you'll know, bro.

Not sure what you are talking about. Are you just throwing random sentences together? The article contains no clues as to what your post means.

Where did you learn futurism. Were you taught that in your church and Sunday school?

Yes. I'm not quite sure what your point is here?

I know very little about the eschatology of Judaism and I assumed from your remarks that you are well informed in the subject.. I have heard the usual clap trap that Jews will rule the world from Jerusalem and the gentiles will be their slaves... I dismiss that crap as either idiocy or anti-Semitism.

They weren't looking for a pagan like Hermann the German either...

I have visited his monument though, which is quite nice.

I am astonished at the survival of Israel since 1950, against overwhelming enemies. I'm 72 and very different so they would not have me, but I wish I could go there and fight for them.

If Arminius had been Jewish, he would have been declared The Messiah.

Hermann the German is a monument to him.
