DESIRE TRUTH?…..YOUR desire is “your” truth, yours, and thats the problem.  I see both new and old testaments  as  mostly all comparable with each other if seen in the right context,  you on the other hand,  see opposites and total contradictions.  While I would grant you that there some differences in word translations,  I have proven that eve…[Read more]

@Gene,

Variants I have no issue with; changing what is said, I have an issue with. Twisting and misusing what is said, I have an issue with. I have given examples of all this corruption in your NT, and you still accept the lies as truth and chastise me saying I shouldn’t “throw out the entire text” but should accept both the truths and lies withi…[Read more]

Proclaimer,  why are you still kicking this flat earth thing around,  anyone with common sense knows this world is a round sphere. There is no excuse for anyone in todays world,  to not know that. There is a lots more important things to be discussed here, than the flat earth stupidity.

peace and love to you and yours Proclaimer………gene

Trip to Antarctica to destroy Flat Earth … or the Globe
Numerous flat earthers have declined. Perhaps because they don’t want the truth.

DT…..Yes there are variants in both the new testaments and the Old testaments, but that has to do with translation from one language to another.  But that does not mean you should throw out the entire texts, to fit your own conclusions.  I have shown you where Daniel predicted the birth date of the Messiah Jesus, and you reject it, no matter how…[Read more]

@Gene,

Matt 1:18 “Now the birth of Jesus Christ was on this wise: When as his mother Mary was espoused to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child of the Holy Ghost.”

Luke 1: “34 Then said Mary unto the angel, How shall this be, seeing I know not a man? 35 And the angel answered and said unto her, The Holy Ghost shall come…[Read more]

DT…….Being “born”  of Spirit,  is not saying “you are a Spirit” , it simply mean the Spirit is what generates you to life, we are all born by Spirit, all creation is Spiritually activated.  But Jesus plainly said “he was not a Spirit”.  “After his resurrection from the dead in-fact”.  But that doesn’t do you any good,  because you have rejected th…[Read more]

Hi all
“Seize life”
By a single act of justice life-giving justification extends to all men. (Romans 5:18)

The ineffable gift of God cannot be bought with money, intellect cannot grasp it, power cannot command it, but to all who will accept it, it is freely offered by infinite grace of God. Men can sense their need and, renouncing all ind…[Read more]

@Gene,

How can the Jesus be the “root and offspring of David” when he was born of the spirit? You do understand what the “seed” of someone is…right?? I have no issue in “denying” this claim as I understand the difference between being the “seed” of someone and “conceived of the spirit”…do you?

You: You have drawn your own conclusions , you h…[Read more]

DT…….Jesus himself said, there would be a future event when he would come in great honor and glory, when he would establish the Kingdom of God on this earth,  That time is soon to take place, Then what will you say, when he tells you ….“I have clearly said……”I am, the root and “offspring” of David”.  Will you deny those words in that day?

@Proclaimer,

You: the messiah came to fulfil many things spoken of and ritualised.

Me: I have asked over and over again if Jesus accomplished what the Tanakh said the Messiah was to do when he comes, and even provided references from the Tanakh asking if Jesus accomplished what was said. None have provided an answer.

You: Now we live in a time…[Read more]

In the past there were things that took place as a shadow of things to come.

Then the messiah came to fulfil many things spoken of and ritualised.

Now we live in a time when we see the fulfilment and it is up to us to accept or reject these things.

Then death and Hades were thrown into the lake of fire. The lake of fire is the second death. 

@T3

Slightly confused with your response as it has nothing to do with our previous conversation; which addressed the heart of everything the NT is dependent upon, Jesus being the “messiah.” If the Jesus is the “messiah”, did he fulfill everything the Tanakh said the Messiah was to do? If the Jesus didn’t fulfill what the Tanakh said he was to do…[Read more]

T3……Good post. It is truly by “Faith”, in God the Father, and “IN”  Jesus Christ, we see that “FAITH” at work> 

peace and love to you and yours T3……..gene

@DT

While Romans 3:21-23 is fairly well known and often quoted:

“21 But now apart from the law the righteousness of God has been made known, to which the Law and the Prophets testify. 22 This righteousness is given through faith in Jesus Christ to all who believe. There is no difference between Jew and Gentile, 23 for all have sinned and fall…[Read more]

@Berean,

Moses used blood to seal the covenant between God and the Israelite’s and nothing more; to keep asking the same question isn’t going to change my response. The plain words written say only that. It’s christianity that wants there to be more to help support its idolatry; I say idolatry, because anything that comes between you and God I…[Read more]

Berean…….Blood is a metaphor for “life”, remember what Jesus said, ……> “whosoever will save his life will lose it, and whosoever loses his life for my sake, will save it”>.   We must all come to pour out “our lives” (the way we live), in obedience to God the Father, just as Jesus did, (blood is the symbol of life)  in scripture. Therefore…[Read more]
