@Gene,

You are not commenting on the rest of the verse; God “crushed” him “to see if his soul would offer itself in restitution” as in a “guilt offering.” You can’t leave that off, because then we’re “cherry picking” the words to make them fit an ideology. If the servant was to offer himself as a “guilt (asham) offering”, that means the servant d…[Read more]

Nick…….Right on brother,  Are you back my old friend?  Missed you a lot.  Hope all is going well for you and yours.

peace and love to you and you Nick………..gene

@Carmel,

I Corinthians 15:3-4 are the verses in question; Paul stated “according to scripture” (meaning this is in the OT) and it’s the claim “the Messiah dying for the sins of mankind” and “being buried and raised on the third day.” I am asking for the verses in the OT that support Paul’s statement.

If what Paul states isn’t in the OT, we hav…[Read more]

Desire Truth……..you said…..>Vs. 10 Yet it pleased HaShem to crush him by disease; to see if his soul would offer itself in restitution, that he might see his seed, prolong his days, and that the purpose of HaShem might prosper by his hand:

It “pleased” or “delighted” God to crush his “son” and to make him “weak”, “sick”, or “ill”? This doesn’t ma…[Read more]

@Jodi,

Thank you for answering my question of who is speaking where…finally! I will respectfully disagree with your interpretation of who is speaking in Isa 53:1-9 (don’t include verse 10 in this dialogue, verse 10 belongs with 11-12). If you are going to say Isaiah is prophesying what the apostles are going to say speaking of the crucified o…[Read more]

@Berean,

I would recommend what you do is compare the Acts 8:32-33 passage to the OT passage in Isa 53:7-8 and tell me they’re the same. The Acts passage has been modified. Seems a bit naughty to change what Isaiah relayed from God.

Isa 8 “By oppression and judgment He was taken away;”

Acts 33 “In humiliation His judgment was taken away;…[Read more]

@Gene,

It seems Christianity must push/inject Jesus into Isa 53. Is God speaking in verses 10-12 thru Isaiah? If yes, then this response MUST be referring back to the previous section of this chapter. If no, then who is speaking? I am a little perplexed to why most (thank you Jodi) won’t answer who is speaking where in this “song.”

We keep sayin…[Read more]

There is no fear of God before their eyes.

“The whole world is under the power of the evil one.”

God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself.

Jesus approved when Peter said” You are the Christ, the Son of the living God”

why do men not believe him?

God is at work in you to will and to do.

There is no fear of God before their eyes.

The whole world is under the power of the evil one.”

The man Jesus was chosen and prepared for ministry by perfect obedience to the Law and anointed with the Spirit at the Jordan enabling him to do the works of God.

Remember only 8 were saved in the Ark and that we must enter the Kingdom of God through many tribulations(Acts 14.20)

we who are baptised into Christ in his name are baptised into his…[Read more]

We see the apportioning of the Spirit shown when Elisha asked for a double portion of the Spirit given to Elijah.
Scripture is written in spiritual language and it does not fit with human logic.

The Word is the Spirit of Christ.

A portion of the Holy Spirit assigned to the Son.

The Word was made flesh at the Jordan.

The stars do move, but only a little bit.

If you go for a drive in the countryside, the trees along the road are whizzing past. A building off in the distance moves slowly. And the mountains ten miles away hardly seem to move at all.

The stars are very, very, very, (very very) very far away.

The closest stars actually do move relative…[Read more]
