Hey There DT,

I’d like to respond first to this,

YOU: Funny, coming from someone who makes up reasons to support what they believe (i.e. “virgin birth”).

ME: What did I make up to support my belief of a virgin birth exactly? What I believe is according to scripture.  Matthew tells us directly that Jesus is biologically a son of Abraham and Davi…[Read more]

Hi DT,

YOU: in Ezek 18:20 we are told “The soul that sins, it shall die; a son shall not bear the iniquity of the father, and a father shall not bear the iniquity of the son; the righteousness of the righteous shall be upon himself, and the wickedness of the wicked shall be upon himself.” So how does the Jesus take on the wickedness of others whe…[Read more]

Hi DT,

YOU: So what you believe is false as it doesn’t align with the Tanakh.

ME: Absolutely aligns, there is one to whom the LORD makes his soul an offering for sin.

Isaiah 53:5 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.

10 Yet i…[Read more]

DT,

who is responsible for Jesus going to the cross?

“Yep and me too, along with all other people that have lived upon the earth, as we have all been sinners.”

Who is the righteous servant of Isaiah 53 and who are the transgressors that he died for?

Thank you

Hi DT,

No I did not personally nail Jesus to the cross.

That isn’t even possible.

Who does the “our” represent and who is the “righteous servant” in Isaiah 53?

Hi DT,

The chief priests, the elders and the high priest plotted and demanded that Jesus be arrested and put to death, but it was the Romans that did the actually deed.

However, Jesus could have saved himself, but he obeyed God who demanded he go to the cross and die.

So far we have some Jews, some Romans, God and Jesus himself all responsible…[Read more]

Hi DT,

I’m going to start with this one,

YOU: What about Matt 5:43 where the Jesus says “you shall love your neighbor, and hate your enemy”; find me the passage where God said to “hate your enemy.”

ME: 

Matthew 5:43 Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and hate thine enemy. 44 But I say unto you, Love your enem…[Read more]

DT,

Are you telling me that you have not comprehended that I believe Jesus is the righteous servant of Isaiah 53 who was wounded for my transgressions? I just find that extremely hard to believe, hence why I find your question stupid. And who are you to ask a person to confess their sins to?

According to Isaiah 53, whoever you believe the…[Read more]

Hi Berean,

YOU:

The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world.(John 1:29)

How can one man, even if he is filled with the Holy Spirit, take away 👉THE SIN OF THE WORLD ???

ME: I would suggest reading back through some of my latest posts and the scriptures I provided, but…[Read more]

Hi DT, I will answer your other questions later today.

Hey there DT,

YOU:

Did you or did you not put the Jesus on the cross? Is this question to difficult?

Why do you believe it’s the apostles speaking in Isaiah 53?

ME: Neither of your questions are difficult at all, I just find them to be stupid questions because it does seem like you should already know my answers.

We are all sinners, but God h…[Read more]

Hi Berean,

Yes Jesus, THE SON OF MAN, as he declared, came forth from the Father, to which Jesus also phrased as coming down from heaven.

WHO does Jesus say came down from heaven in John 3, he said THE SON OF MAN!

Jesus also said in John 3,

“Except a MAN be BORN OF water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.”

“For God…[Read more]

Hi Berean and All,

The perfect way to explain what being begotten by God or born of God means is to say God’s Spirit has descended from heaven and has come to dwell within you!

Hi Proclaimer,

Here is a very condensed post for you

YOU:

Mankind has a sin problem.

It needed a unique solution besides letting our souls die.

ME: 

Yes, mankind has a sin problem which is because only God is good and without His Spirit dwelling in us we can bare no fruit of righteousness.

The solution, God called a man to righteousness…[Read more]

Hi Proclaimer,

YOU:

Mankind has a sin problem.

It needed a unique solution besides letting our souls die.

ME:

Before we read the word of God from Paul let us not forget prophecy from Isaiah of a son of David who God would give his Spirit to and call to righteousness to fulfill the covenant and another prophecy that the giving of the Spirit…[Read more]

Hi DT,

YOU:

@Jodi,

In reference to post #946652

Did you put the Jesus on the cross; if so, what did you do that put him there?

ME: Why does your response not speak to what we were directly debating about?

If the prophesy of Isaiah 53 is the words of the apostles giving the report of Jesus as savior to the people then the “our” and “we” most…[Read more]

Hi Berean,

Holy means –set apart by our only one true God our Heavenly Father

Before Jesus of Nazareth, a son of David, was even born, long time before that, even before the world began, God set him apart to be the one man where by his righteousness unto obedience we would be set free.

Isaiah 42:1 Behold my servant, whom I uphold; mine elect,…[Read more]

Hi All,

Romans 5:18  Therefore as by the offence of one judgment came upon all men to condemnation; even so by the righteousness of one the free gift came upon all men unto justification of life.

The disobedience committed by a human led to a punishment God gave to all humans and therefore it was unto God that by the obedience of one human God…[Read more]

Hi DT,

YOU: Concerning the “mediator”, do I need the Jesus or can I offer praise and thanksgiving directly to God? Can I take my requests directly to HIM or do I need the Jesus as this “intermediator” “working on my behalf”? God says to repent, turn from sin, and HE’LL remember it no more; but christianity says I need the Jesus to be forgiven.…[Read more]

correction

“Paul directly gives us the faith we are to have in he who was anointed of the Spirit?”

is not supposed to have a question mark but a period.
