Quote You have to assume much to make up for the obvious contradictions. Here's a story:1. John went into the house.2. John drove away.Look at that crazy story. It is filled with contradictions. How could John drive away if he's in the house? Well, I guess the writer could have left that part out.Obvoiosly, there is no contradiction here. I…[Read more]

Quote It means that an anointed priest will be cut off from his power, from his people. The Sadduccees controlled the Temple when it was destroyed in 70 CE. They were no more after that. In Israel, when “cutting off” was used regarding a punishment for violation of the Law, it meant a cutting off in death. Some rabbinic scholars believe that it…[Read more]

Quote There is no definite article for moshiach in 9:26 so no reason to translate this as 'THE Messiah'. The moshiach of 9:26 is just an anointed one, likely a priest. Many priests and kings did wicked things in the Jewish scriptures. Which priest? This seems to be a pretty significant prophecy. The Jews used to believe it referred to “The”…[Read more]

Quote WERE THE HEBREW BIBLE WRITERS WRONG TO INCLUDE GOD'S NAME THOUSANDS OF TIMES? Please answer this question.No why do you ask? Really what is you beef? Are you trying to divert my attention from showing the errors of the Christian bible?“No, why do you ask?” Because you state that it is wrong to write God's name. But those who actually…[Read more]

Quote Satan and his demons are mythology. So, I assume in your Bible, the word “Satan” which simply means “opposer/resister” means just that.And so in Job, an angel who was a resister was the one speaking with God?Is this what you believe?

Quote Show me satan's character from the Tanakh, not the Christian bible. The Christian bible is mixed with mythology so its views on demons and satan are swayed to that idealogy. Therefore please show me that this satan of yours is the bad guy constantly trying to outdo G-d.(See Job for more information.)

Major premise: “No one has ever seen God”–1 John 4:12Minor premise: People have seen JesusConclusion: Jesus is not the same one referred to in the major premise.This seems like pretty clear solid thinking to me.Isaiah's first remarks were that ” has been seen,” and that therefore the whole premise of the argument that “No one has ever seen God”…[Read more]

About two-thirds of scientists believe in God, according to a new survey that uncovered stark differences based on the type of research they do.The study, along with another one released in June, would appear to debunk the oft-held notion that science is incompatible with religion.Those in the social sciences are more likely to believe in God and…[Read more]

I keep seeing the number 38% and 40%. This would mean that of the 95% of scientists who believe in Evolution–they're somewhat confused and not very trustworthy. So almost half of all the scientists in the world who believe in evolution also believe in God.?Clearly, they are not as trustworthy or beyond question as some would have us…[Read more]

Stu has said several times that 95% of scientists believe in evolution.I'm wondering, just out of curiostiy, what percentage of those same scientists believe in God?

Yes, it was Satan who's heart became proud, as this scripture says. He was a beautiful angelic creature of God, who wanted more. He wanted what God had or would have.

LUKE 1:2“just as those who from beginning became eyewitnesses and attendants of the message delivered these to us,”Luke did not speak of himself as an eyewitness of the events in the life of Christ that are recorded in his Gospel account. Some hold that Luke was a Gentile, basing this mainly on Colossians 4:11, 14. Because Paul first men…[Read more]

Quote If you still want to hold on to the idea that it is Jesus remember that being 'cut off' means that the person has been wicked in G-d's sight. Are you saying the Messiah has been “wicked in God's sight”?

after the sixty-two weeks Mes·si′ah will be cut off, Ok, towshab, what do you think this means?

Quote One large error here that most Christians make. It is NOT 69 weeks, it is 7 weeks and 62 weeks but NOT compounded. The Masoretic text, with its system of vowel points, was prepared in the latter half of the first millennium C.E. Evidently because of their rejection of Jesus Christ as the Messiah, the Masoretes accented the Hebrew text at…[Read more]

Quote At this point stop and think a moment. If the men know of all this then you are saying the chief priests 'know the truth' but refuse to acknowledge it. How do you explain this?Um.. They were bad bad people and they didn't want Jesus upsetting the control and power they had over people. Jesus was exposing them. They didn't like this. They…[Read more]

Quote Does your satan have a red suit and horns? How about a pitchfork? If a literal satan exists he only does what G-d allows him to do. See Job for more information.You tell me to see Job (which speaks of a very real Satan who spoke with God) and hence isn't the evil in people and yet you say “if a literal satan exists.” ? ?Yes, Satan does what…[Read more]

The Encyclopaedia Judaica says: “The Jews of the Roman period believed would be raised up by God to break the yoke of the heathen and to reign over a restored kingdom of Israel.” (Jerusalem, 1971, Vol. 11, col. 1407) They wanted liberation from the yoke of Rome.Jewish history testifies that on the basis of the Messianic prophecy recorded at Dan…[Read more]
