Berean……..I think Desire Truth, is not trying to dismiss Jesus as a messiah, but simply trying to get you to see him in a right way. The way the Old Testament Jew’s viewed him. They saw Jesus as a descendent of king David, not as a “preexisting” being who was “morphed” into a human being from some kind of past life as you view him.

Hi to all
Here is the Daily Devotional
DOES EZEKIEL TEACH THAT WE SHOULD BAPTIZE BY SPRINKLING?
There is a popular belief that these verses prefigure the introduction of sprinkling for baptism. But do references to sprinkling in the Old Testament have a connection with the ordinance of baptism in the New Testament? A few facts reveal that it…[Read more]

For brevity sake let me help you along; is it safe to say, with Jesus you go to heaven and without Jesus you go to hell?

Do you think you are doing BETTER than modern Christianity by dismissing the real MESSIAH?
DesireTruth replied to the topic JOHN 1:1 who is the WORD? in the forum Scriptural Teachings 2 years, 11 months ago
Salvation and how you get it isn’t the question, the question is “what is modern christianity truly based on?”
Don’t make this complicated, think basic like a child – “with this, you receive this; without this, you receive this.”

Explain your means of salvation to you, you haven’t said anything yet.
DesireTruth replied to the topic JOHN 1:1 who is the WORD? in the forum Scriptural Teachings 2 years, 11 months ago
You’re trying to make it “spiritual” and are missing it. Go basic, like you’re telling a child; without this, you receive this.

@ desire Truth
The commandments of God and the faith of Jesus work together.
Without Jesus, we can’t do anything…I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman.

If you don’t keep the commands or the faith, then what?

@desire Truth
For me, true Christianity is summarized (among others) in Revelation 14:12
Here is the patience of the saints:👉 here are they that keep the commandments of ELOHIYM, and the faith of YAHSHUA.👈🙏

Let me rephrase the question, what is modern “christianity” truly based on?

@ Berean,
Those aren’t proofs, they’re doctrines and I have thrown out doctrine in favor of scriptural truth. If doctrine cannot be confirmed by scripture, it’s man made in my eyes. Now I asked to find a preexistent Jesus in the old testament, not the new…begin!
Riddle me this, what is “christianity” truly based on? If you say “love”, before…[Read more]

The proofs have already been given a long time ago.

Carmel……Jesus saying we must eat his flesh and drink his blood, is a “METAPHOR” for the words simply meaning we must take his life to ourselves, and become exactly like him.
when you eat of drink something you are taking it into yourself and it becomes part of “your” very existence. Fact is if you don’t do that you have “no life in you”.

Proclaimer…….Jesus was simply telling he was more “important” them Abraham to them, the Jews trusted in their relationship to Abraham as the sign that made them important to God, they used that all the time even to JOHN the Baptist who told them God could raise up stone to Abraham if he wanted to.
