Nick,Do you think those in the city of Ninevah were Jewish? Yet G-d heard their cry and relented. They believed in G-d and did not have to convert to Judaism. How do you explain G-d's mercy upon them?And what of Job? You have no indication that he was a Jew. What of Abraham? Noah? None of them Jewish. Israel itself did not come about until Jacob…[Read more]

Quote (Nick Hassan @ Dec. 21 2007,22:50)Hi Tow, You admit then that you are a sinner. The Jewish teachings are replete with the problem of dying in their sin and their means given to deal with their sin problem but you are outside of all these matters. So as a sinner how do you understand that a sinless God wants anything to do with you?You have a…[Read more]

Quote (Nick Hassan @ Dec. 21 2007,22:32)Hi Tow, You have no faith in the NT but we do. Our lives are based on it.Your life is based on fiction? How sad.

Directly, and where you are.Psa 145:18 The LORD is near to all who call on him, to all who call on him in truth. Isa 55:6 “Seek the LORD while he may be found; call upon him while he is near;

How? By prayer, praise, faith, and dedication. How do YOU worship you god?

Quote (Nick Hassan @ Dec. 21 2007,21:29)Hi Tow, Is God in the heart of every sinner?Rom 3:23 for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of GodWe are all sinners according to your 100% true book Nick. Therefore you have NO advantage over anyone else. Please come off your pedestal and realize that you are no more loved and cherished by G-d…[Read more]

Only according to the fictitious GT. There is no such 'son' at the right hand of YHVH in Tanakh. Again, you might do well to check pagan mystery cults for the father of Jesus because YHVH ain't his father.

Because He is G-d? The covenant made with Jews was an action that signified that they were chosen to represent. God also made a covenant with Noah and I am a descendant of him. sorry if you feel you must believe in a pagan god-man to fit in. Not my problem.

G-d speaks to the heart. What is written is done so by other men, just like me. Thus I can choose to say 'no' to that which does not match a loving and all-powerful Creator.What makes the words written by other human beings any more truthful than what I, a human being, believe?

Yes, I think it is quite a positive to worship YHVH instead of a dead man. I also think it is a positive thing to stop giving 10% of one's money to a social club called a church when such money can go to legitimate charities that actually improve people's way of life. Furthermore, I find that it is quite positive to stop believing in fiction when…[Read more]

Sorry, but it is your god who has his name in CHRISTmas. There is not YHVH in CHRISTmas.Do YOU qualify for G-d's approval? If so, please tell me how we can know you are approved with certainty. I do not claim such but your question is framed in a manner which hints that you think YOU are. So please, do tell us how YOU are approved by G-d.

Yes, I believe G-d. You, on the other hand, believe what others have written about G-d. HUGE difference.

And your constant willingness to change my words is showing your fruit. Thus, I call foul and question your Christianity.

And remember, to you the GT is 100% true, so you cannot discount what John and Paul have written.

Also Nick, since you do not accept that Jesus is G-d, then you must also deal with Paul's statement:Rom 3:23 for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of GodHere Paul says ALL have sinned. He did not say all except Jesus, he said ALL. Since he is comparing others to the glory of G-d and Jesus is not G-d, then Paul also admits that Jesus had…

What is sin then Nick? Please define sin for me. Wait, I'll let your own GT define sin for you1Jn 3:4 Everyone who keeps sinning is violating Torah – indeed, sin is violation of Torah.

I am not of Israel, but I am of man, and of Noah. Israel may be G-d's chosen but I do not require to be among the chosen. He does not abandon every one else, He has just chosen a certain people to represent Him. He is still the G-d of all flesh (Num 16:22, Num 27:16, Jer 32:27). Sorry if YOU cannot accept what is written at this point.

What assumptions? Its a matter of 2+2. John's baptism = repentance for forgiveness of sinsJesus requested John's baptism = Jesus had sinned and need to repent 2+2=4, not 5 like you want it to.

I do not judge G-d or Israel. You must be speaking of someone else.

Quote (Nick Hassan @ Dec. 21 2007,18:50)Hi Tow, The Son of God submitted to baptism but not because he was a sinner but because he was a man and God required it of him. No sin was accrued to his account by God and it is that which matters. Ps 32Sorry, but you have no scriptural evidence of this. GT evidence says John's baptism was for repentance…[Read more]
