Another smooth stone that God’s people have refused to load in their sling is that of the true state of the dead. Merriman-Webster defines death as a permanent cessation of all vital functions. It is consistent with God’s word. The wise man Solomon informs us: “For the living know that they shall…[Read more]

You’re backing down regarding David’s clothes, too—yet that isn’t symbolic; it’s not just a casual figure of speech…
Reconsider your position, DT.

On what occasion were David’s clothes divided?

@DT

Gen.4
And Adam knew Eve his wife; and she conceived, and bare Cain, and said, I have gotten a man from the LORD.
And she again bare his brother Abel. And Abel was a keeper of sheep, but Cain was a tiller of the ground.
And in process of time it came to pass, that Cain brought of the fruit of the ground an offering unto the LORD.

Prove the Jesus IS The Messiah!!

@DT

THE ENTIRE BIBLE PROVES THAT JESUS ​​IS THE BIBLE’S MESSIAH.

Among other things, 53:5

He was despised and rejected by men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were our faces from him; he was despised, and we esteemed him not.

Zech.13:6

And one shall say unto him, What are these wounds in 👉thine hands? 👈Then 👉he shall answer, 👉Those with which👉 I was wounded 👈in the house of 👉my friends.

Wounded is literally “pierced through.”

How did the Puritans argue in favour of remembering the Sabbath day even under the New Covenant today?

The Sabbath is a moral commandment, binding on the world today, for at least five reasons:

1. The Sabbath was first instituted in paradise, in the state of innocence (Genesis 2:2-3, Exodus 20:11, Mark 2:27), before any ceremony existed,…[Read more]

The figure in Isaiah 53 was innocent. But was Israel?
Huh?

If the expression “his death” was in the plural, the expression “his grave” would ALSO be in the plural.
But that’s not the case.
It is indeed one person and not several.

You did not answer the question in verse 53:9

He was assigned 👉 a grave with the wicked, and with the rich in 👉 his death, 👈though he had committed no violence and there was no deceit in his mouth.

In what way could this verse apply to Israel?

The Paradox
Anyone who sets out to discover what the Old Testament says about the coming of the Messiah will quickly encounter paradoxical elements. At times, it may even seem like a mass of contradictions, for the Jewish prophets painted two distinct portraits of the coming Messiah.

On one hand, the researcher will…[Read more]

So!?

5] But HE was wounded 👉for our transgressions, HE was bruised 👉for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was 👉UPON HIM; and with HIS stripes we are healed.

Don’t you see that the text is about a person?

“His face was so marred more than any man, and his form more than the sons of men,”

@DT
Thank you for your response.

So according to your understanding, 53:6 would be Israel.
All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned everyone to his own way; and the LORD hath laid on him (Israel) the iniquity of us all.

1) And you, are you sure you have verified EVERYTHING?

2) Are you truly capable of telling us who it is upon whom God has laid the iniquity of us all? (As it is written in verse 6)

When will you verify for yourself if what you have been taught is true?

And you, are you sure you have verified EVERYTHING?

Convenient Faith

We are living in rather troublous times, aren’t we? There are wars and rumors of wars, earthquakes and tsunamis, pestilences and destruction, uncertain economic times, killings of innocent babies, decline in moral standards, and so much more atrocities and cruelty pervading the human family.

People accused Jesus of breaking the Sabbath.

But did Jesus actually break God’s commandment?
