Hi Proclaimer,

Great. I can kill two delusions with one stone. The truth about this verse is it can be translated multiple ways and of course which option do you think Trinitarian scholars will choose. The one that appears to make Jesus as God, despite the rest of the New Testament clearly teaching that the one true God is the Father only.

Which…[Read more]

Satan the Christian Devil:

The essential function of Satan in the New Testament is to obstruct the kingdom of God as long and as thoroughly as he can. One of his favorite weapons is possession. Ordinarily the demons, Satan’s servants, do the actual possessing, though in the Johannine literature Satan does it himself. By exorcising the demons a…[Read more]

Hebrews 8:8-13–Speaking of Contradictions:

8 “The days are coming, declares the Lord,
when I will make a new covenant
with the people of Israel
and with the people of Judah.
9 It will not be like the covenant
I made with their ancestors
when I took them by the hand
to lead them out of Egypt,
because they did not remain faithful to my cov…[Read more]

Difference between Judaism and Christianity based on their scriptures:

For centuries, Christians have asked why Jews don’t accept the authenticity of the New Testament. Let’s explore in depth one of the many reasons, namely contradictions and inconsistencies.

Judaism believes that the Jewish Scriptures, often referred to as the Old Tes…[Read more]

Hi Sis Kathi,

The NT was written to all people, including unbelieving Jews and Gentiles.

Have you read or listened to anything Rabbi Jonathan Bernis has written or spoke about?

Thanks for your post to me on Rabbi Jonathan Bernis. I am sorry to say that he is a Messianic Jew who fully support the idea of Trinity. Here is his statement of…[Read more]

Hi Sis Kathi,

Adam,

Are you aware that the Son is identified as YHVH in the NT? Heb 1.

Yes I am aware of Heb 1 which is purely the interpretation of it’s unknown writer. He had misquoted the Hebrew scriptures by taking them in bits and parts out of their original context to suit his Christology. The scriptures he quoted from the Hebrew Bible were…[Read more]

The Bible for the Hebrews is the OT AND the NT. It is not just the OT. The story of the NT was written to the Jew first and then also to the Gentiles.

I know sister the NT was written for Christian believers from both Jews and Gentiles. But my arguments are on how the NT deviated from its original source the Hebrew Bible on the concepts of God and Messiah.

2 Cor 13:13

The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Spirit be with all of you.
Here Jesus is included in the doxology along with God. There are many such scriptures which support the exalted role of Jesus along with God in the NT…

 

Exactly! Two powers of YHVH along with the power of the Holy Spirit i…

Hi Sis Kathi,

The words translated as “God/gods” have various meanings. I believe that the eternal creator God is YHVH which consists of the Father, Son, and their Spirit. Any other beings or things translated as god or gods are either man made idols, or beings that dwell in the spirit world that did not always exist and do not have power over YHV…

Hi Sis Kathi,

I believe that was referring the first commandment to love the LORD (YHVH) your God with all your heart, soul, and mind.

If you knew YHVH as our One God and our One Lord, you would understand that we are to love both our One God and our One Lord, Father and Son. The Father is our One God and the Son is our One Lord. YHVH is both our…

Hi proclaimer,

Saying the the NT teaches Jesus as the creator is tantamount to saying the wife of the emperor was cocreator of the Taj Mahal when in reality, it was a gift.

I appreciate your comparison of Taj Mahal with the creation of God. But the problem here, Taj was not made before (the birth) or marriage of Muntaz to Shahjahan, the Indian…[Read more]

Danny……..Adam is not ‘attacking” anyone, He is bringing out what some “critical” textual scholars have derived from our scripture text’s that we have in possession and how they can be  differently interpreted in there original language.  let’s  try to keep this about the posts not about the person who is posting it, especially if the person is o…

In the Christian New Testament the second Gospel Mark opens his narrative with the account of John’s baptizing Jesus. Jesus of Nazareth, after his baptism, was coming out of the water of the Jordan River when “he saw the heavens torn apart and the spirit descending like a dove on him” and heard a voice speaking to him from heaven (1:10-11). God…[Read more]

Hi All,

This is an interesting debate on Evolution of Satan. Please do participate in the debate.

Thank you…..Adam

Hi Danny,

Yahweh is the Most High God.

“It was shown to you so that you might know
that Yahweh is God. There is no one else besides
him.”

“Know therefore today, and take it to heart, that
Yahweh himself is God in heaven above and on
the earth beneath. There is no one else.”

Deuteronomy 4:35;39

Please read Deut 32:8-9

When the Most High apporti…[Read more]

Parousia in the books of the New Testament:

The teaching of St. Paul on the Parousia has been considered in my earlier posts. Other NT literature is here discussed on the basis of the commonly accepted chronology, Mark (c. 65–70), Luke (c. 75), Matthew (75–85), 2 Peter (probably 80–100). The Johannine writings and Revelation are discussed separ…[Read more]

Hi Proclaimer,

That is not correct gadam. It was specifically about the end of the age. Yes Jesus predicted the siege of Jerusalem and some events that would take place before the end, even in the first century. He even said, that it wouldn’t be the end yet, then tells of signs that would signify that.

I have shifted these arguments of yours on E…[Read more]

Hi Proclaimer,

“I know this is not the thread for arguing such theological Dogma. I don’t think Jesus was meant about these man made Pandemics. He was talking to the First Century crowds in their own context. Even if you take the latest Apocalyptic book Revelation it never talks about future times. All its imagery and symbols like horses, swords e…

Hi Proclaimer,

Straight off the bat it is worth mentioning that words and languages evolve. A word that may well have been used to describe a pantheon of deities could then be used to describe the most high God when a people recognise that there is indeed one true God. It’s not hard to imagine people thinking their pantheon as being the Most H…
