@Danny,
Who determines what the “truth” is?
Whose “truth” is correct?

@Gene,
I will allow you to continue beating that dead “law” horse; if you can’t comprehend the words written in front of you, that’s a personal problem and you will remain lost in your own ignorance. I will not allow you to drag me into your pit.
I’ve asked you what commands, statutes, and laws God said Abraham kept and you keep running in this…[Read more]

Consulting the Talmud!?!? That’s not a path I would dare venture down at this point in my studies; I’m wanting to make sure I understand what God said first before trying understand the meanings behind what a bunch of sages debated.
You quoted from Sanhedrin 37b – 38a “Rabbi Yoḥanan says: Exile atones for all transgressions and rende…[Read more]

Hi DT,
You: Nothing in what you wrote supported why Jechoniah should be in the lineage of Jesus,
Me: I agree!
Thus as I am not that KEEN and as familiar as YOU ARE with the Hebrew scriptures I opted to do some research, THROUGH A JEW AND RABBINIC SOURCES.
They also agree that God reversed the curse on Jeconiah, which they attribute to…[Read more]

@Gene,
You: DT, has lost his ability to “comprehend “, those thing it appears, by his arrogant, and hatred of brother PAUL.
Me: Seriously!! Are you really this judgmental? Comprehension doesn’t evade me. Arrogance, sometimes, but I don’t believe I’ve ever exhibited it here. Hatred of Paul, I didn’t know Paul personally so how could I hate him? Am…[Read more]DesireTruth replied to the topic John 1:1 in the forum Scriptural Teachings 2 years, 3 months ago
Let’s keep going and talk about your justification of I Cor 9:20-23; why begin at verse 18, let’s back up to verse 14 where Paul tells the Corinthians he’s not going to take payment from them even though “the Lord directed those who proclaim the gospel to get their living from the gospel.” This is suppose to come from Matt 10:10; the probl…[Read more]

Nothing in what you wrote supported why Jechoniah should be in the lineage of Jesus, especially when God pulled the kingship authority from him and said he was to be remembered as childless (no matter how many kids he has while imprisoned).

@Danny,
Oops, somethings wrong with your statement…
Let me fix it for you, “The NT without the OT doesn’t work.” Actually, does the NT really even work?
How can something that came before be dependent on what came after? That was from a 15 year old…out of mouths of babes! That’s like saying the foundation is dependent on the house.

Hi DT,
YOU:
Read Acts 15:1-32 and Gal 2:1-10:

Hi DT,
I think you missed part of what I said because if you did I think your response might have been different, but I will get to that in a moment.
First let me say I am very familiar with Deuteronomy 30 and I would like to connect it directly to Ezekiel 36.
Notice the prophecy, God knows they will be given blessing and cursing, but what…[Read more]

DT you said…….Me: First, look up the definition of “Statute” and confirm its meaning as “a law that has been formally approved and written down.” By using the word “statute” it is assumed the reader would know and understand its meaning as being “written law”, a “law.” Unless of course one didn’t know what the definition of the word is…hmmm
