I believe that the forum should stay in an exclusively neutral sector.

The First CommandmentI. I am the Lord thy God, who brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage. Thou shalt not have strange gods before Me. Thou shalt not make to thyself a graven thing, nor the likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or in the earth beneath, nor of those things that are in the waters under the earth.…[Read more]

I'm sorry but the answer is B) Saul

A foreshadowing of my Messiah in Numbers 21:8-9? I have to admit that it is a possibility; with those two verses being compared to John 3:14 and all.

Genesis 1:3-5 Then God said, “Let there be light”; and there was light. And God saw that the light was good; and God separated the light from the darkness. God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And there was evening and there was morning, the first day.

Oh I see. Thank you both for your help.

God bless you too, Mandy!!!

In any case, I asked t8 to give you editing rights, but as of yet, it is a no. Maybe if you message him he will consider it. I don't know, though.

Wait! You could be partly wrong because it could have been a foreshadowing, also.John 3:1414 Just as Moses lifted up the snake in the desert, so the Son of Man must be lifted up,15 that everyone who believes in him may have eternal life.

I meant Numbers 21:8-9.8 The LORD said to Moses, “Make a snake and put it up on a pole; anyone who is bitten can look at it and live.” 9 So Moses made a bronze snake and put it up on a pole. Then when anyone was bitten by a snake and looked at the bronze snake, he lived.Sounds like a foreshadowing to me. Can you explain the significance of these…[Read more]

Quote (acertainchap @ Jan. 16 2008,02:36)Numbers 21: 6,8John 3: 14,15 Hi Tow,I know your statement was directed toward kenrch but I was wondering if you could explain the meaning of these verses because you claim that God never told his people of Jesus in the Old Testament. Numbers 21:6-8 is a foreshadowing of Jesus.

Numbers 21: 6,8John 3: 14,15

I do indeed believe that Jesus is the Messiah. I think many of your teachings are helpful. I only ask that you do not 'jump' onto people with your anger. Scripture also warns not to judge others. I don't have favorites on this site. I respect everyone and try to help them along to the best of my ability.
