Hello brother Gene thanks for replying post on this new thread.

You: Adam the use of the word “THY”, always express the idea, that it was someone else being addressed. right?  Not about the person speaking themselves right?

So to me it could be addressing Jesus or someone other the God himself,  I can see Paul’s point in what he was saying bro…[Read more]

Hi Proclaimer, thanks posting on this new thread. I know you would interested on this topic.

You: I do not want you to be ignorant of this mystery, brothers and sisters, so that you may not be conceited: Israel has experienced a hardening in part until the full number of the Gentiles has come in, and in this way all Israel will be saved. As it…[Read more]

Rejection of Jesus as the Messiah

According to Maimonides, Jesus was the most influential, and consequently, the most damaging of all false messiahs. However, since the traditional Jewish belief is that the messiah has not yet come and the Messianic Age is not yet present, the total rejection of Jesus as either messiah or deity has never been a…[Read more]

Hi Proclaimer,

You: BTW, it is interesting to see Gene support your views. I always felt he wasn’t really a Believer rather than a person who was struggling to believe.

Me: Brother Gene is a nice gentleman. It’s really a shallow assessment on his beliefs. It show that people are just dead against others who are not agreeing to their beliefs. S…[Read more]

Hi Proclaimer, it’s good that you have read at least one of my posts.

You: Are there not Christians today?

Lol.

One reason why I hardly read your posts. That is, I don’t like wasting time.

How about you stump up the no 1 reason why Jesus is not the messiah and give scriptural proof.

Or give us the no 1 reason with scriptural proof that the Ne…[Read more]

Hi brother Carmel thanks for your excellent and detailed post on God’s spirit. I think there was some problem in highlighting the words with color. As a Christian I can say Amen to your post above.

You : Gadam, the Hebrew Bible was written FOR THE CARNAL MINDED PEOPLE, They were ALL SPIRITUALLY DEAD. Moses’ law was PRECISELY for this kind of peo…[Read more]

Hello brother Gene, Thank you so much for your encouraging words to me.

You: ADAM we must always remember this foremost, “brethren you have “NO” need of a teacher, for the Spirit (of truth) teaches you all things ” ,  Adam the spirit of truth is the “cognition of truth” it is the “earnest ” given us by God the Father . Therefore it say…[Read more]

Hello brother Gene thanks again for your post on this thread.

You: I chose number two,  as explained in what I last wrote to you. The Gnostic’s who John address as those who went out “from us” which shows they were not really “of us”.

Why? , because they were teaching a different Jesus,  a PREEXISTING God Jesus,  not a Jesus, who came into hi…[Read more]

Hi brother Gene thanks for your patience in explaining the concepts on Antichrist. I can appreciate your thoughtful post above. You may be right in saying that Antichrist is not individual person but an ideology. We need more details on this idea. I am posting some history behind Antichrist ideology;

Antichrist

Antichrist, the polar opposite and…[Read more]

Hello brother Gene,

You: Adam……This is what I believe 2th2 was saying,   The man of sin is not a real person,  it is a “false IMAGE” of Jesus being a God, Created by the “apostate” Churches.  That is why Paul said the “mystery” of iniquity was already at work, in the church is what meant, in his day it was beginning to form. it was a “lie” abou…[Read more]

Hi brother Carmel,

You: Do you mean that God as Father is not mentioned in the Hebrew Bible?

Me: 1. Yes God as Father mentioned in the Hebrew Bible. Isaiah 63:16

For you are our father,
though Abraham does not know us
and Israel does not acknowledge us;
you, O Lord, are our father;
our Redeemer from of old is your name.

You: Do you mean that G…[Read more]

Hi Danny as I have already replied your message please don’t preach Gospel here on this Skeptics’ thread.

If you want to negate please debate on the arguments that are put forth on this thread.

Thank you.

Hello brother Gene,

You: Adam……what I was trying to show is that Rev 17 is the place where we can time date the prophesy,  when he said “five are fallen, “one IS,  I tied that into, Daniel 2, which lists the progression of the future “Babylon ” kingdoms,  to the Sixth kingdom, which is the Kingdom of Jesus Christ and the Resurrected Saint’s.[Read more]

The Man of Lawlessness (2 Thess. 2:3–11)

Paul introduces the man of lawlessness in his Second Epistle to the Thessalonians. Let no one deceive you by any means;

“for that Day will not come unless the falling away comes first, and the man of sin is revealed, the son of perdition, who opposes and exalts himself above all that is called God or t…[Read more]

The Last Days

According to preterists “the last days” refers to the time between the advent of John the Baptist and the destruction of Jerusalem. This “eschaton” refers not to a time in the distant future, but to a time that is imminent. Gary DeMar summarizes the relevant passages of the New Testament with emphasis on the radical nearness of the…[Read more]

Hi Proclaimer,

You: A question. Not saying this is correct. But the questions do come to mind.

Is gadam a wolf?

Me: Ha ha great question it is….thanks for naming me ‘Wolf’. But please remember we are not here preaching the Gospel on this thread or questioning one’s personal beliefs. We are only debating on the doctrines which are ambiguous…[Read more]

Hi Berean,

You: seeds of life
During the first centuries of the Christian era there was some reluctance to accept the authenticity of the book to the Hebrews as part of the biblical canon. Today, two thousand years later, the main theme of the book – perfection of character – continues to bother some Christians. Having not yet experienced the pow…[Read more]

Hello brother Gene, than you so much for posting on this new thread on “Parousia of Jesus”.

You: The beast that was and is not at the time of this prophesy is Satan the devil, he was placed into the bottomless pit at the start of the Sixth kingdom on this earth, and that time dates this prophesy to be at the end of the kingdom of Jesus Christ and…[Read more]

Hi Mike thanks for commenting on my post.

You: Gadam, even from Micah’s point of view (having lived long before Jesus walked the earth as a man), Jesus’ origins were from ancient times.  So yes, the one who would come out of Bethlehem in the future had already been in existence from days of old.

There’s also Proverbs 8:22-31, and Proverb…[Read more]
