Carmel,

YOU: Notice Jodi ONLY THE FIRST TEST IS SUPERNATURAL, THE OTHER TWO ARE VERY SIMPLE AND IN ACTUAL FACT, MORE PROVOCATIVE, AND ENTICING  FOR A HUMAN BEING!

ME: I don’t think you quite realize that you are trying to prove something thinking that I believe other things as you do, when I absolutely don’t.  This is why what you post is ju…[Read more]

Hi Carmel,

Jesus can do nothing of himself, he gives credit to the Spirit that came to abode in him at the river Jordan and he says he does not follow his own will but does the will of the Father. Following his own will instead of God’s would have been him giving into temptation.

No temptation exists then by what you are saying, the temptation…[Read more]

Hi Carmel,

I have ZERO interest in what you believe the truth is according to your “spiritual mind”.

If you are not producing a summary from DIRECT passages, then to me you are spewing nothing but lies from your own imagination that is under strong delusion.

John 1:32 And John bare record, saying, I saw the Spirit descending from heaven like a…[Read more]

Hi All,

The prince, our commander, the spirit that works disobedience, is our own carnal minds wherein we fulfill the desires of the flesh and of that mind. 

Matthew 16:23 But He turned and said to Peter, “Get behind Me, Satan! You are an offense to Me, for you are not mindful of the things of God, but the things of men.”

Satan- phonetic…[Read more]

Hi Carmel,

The original transcripts were spiritual, pure in God’s truth. Interpretation of a passage can ONLY stand in truth if it aligns with the sum of all scripture. If understanding of a passage is difficult, the answer can always be found directly elsewhere within the bible. To be spiritually minded is to take clear and simple truths given…[Read more]

Hi Carmel,

Notice, 

1 Chronicles 17:11 And it shall come to pass, when thy days be expired that thou must go to be with thy fathers, that I will raise up thy seed after thee, which shall be of thy sons; and I will establish his kingdom. 12 He shall build me an house, and I will stablish his throne for ever. 13 I WILL BE his father, and he SHALL…[Read more]

Hi Danny and DT,

Matthew 14:33 Then they that were in the ship came and worshipped him, saying, Of a truth thou art the Son of God.

NT worship-Proskuneo

to kiss the hand to (towards) one, in token of reverence

among the Orientals, esp. the Persians, to fall upon the knees and touch the ground with the forehead as an expression of profound…[Read more]

Hi Berean,

My position stands.

John 8:41 Ye do the deeds of your father. Then said they to him, We be not born of fornication; we have one Father, even God. 42 Jesus said unto them, If God were your Father, ye would love me: for I proceeded forth and came from God; neither came I of myself, but he sent me.

Luke 2:45 And when they found him not,…[Read more]

Hi DT,

They are going to tell you he is of the lineage of David through Mary and that it’s acceptable for him to have a right to the throne being adopted by Joseph most likely, as that is what I have heard before from folks on here.

YOU: Jesus was conceived of the spirit and not of the “seed/zera/descendant” of David or did Matthew and Luke lie?…[Read more]

Hi Desire Truth,

As I had said my point in one of my posts, to which you called out because I didn’t speak directly to how “Isa 2:2-4; Micah 4:1-4; Zech 8:20-23; Zech 9:9-10; Zech 14:16 are speaking to the coming Kingdom of God spoken of throughout the NT”, was to show you how the OT does indeed speak in the need of believing in the Messiah in…[Read more]

As always, thank you Gene! I always appreciate your encouraging words. You have given some excellent posts as well!

Hi Carmel and All,

Trees have roots as in plural.

Isaiah 11:1 And there shall come forth a rod out of the stem of Jesse, and a Branch shall grow out of his roots.

Revelation 22:16 I Jesus have sent mine angel to testify unto you these things in the churches. I am the root and the offspring of David, and the bright and morning…[Read more]

Hi Desire Truth,

You gave Isa 2:2-4; Micah 4:1-4; Zech 8:20-23; Zech 9:9-10; Zech 14:16 and then you said, “I didn’t read anything about believing in the Messiah for salvation; but did read the nations were going to “stream” to God’s mountain to worship.”

ME: The purpose of my last post you missed, it was to give you OT scriptures that do inde…[Read more]

Hi Desire Truth,

Hoping we can put a rest to this very soon and just get on with speaking to scripture.

I had said, “The issue at hand seems to at least be in part, which has occurred on this forum before, is in interpreting certain NT passages exactly how main stream Christian folks do and in seeing the contradiction with the OT the rejection…[Read more]

Hi Desire Truth,

YOU: Align NT teachings with the following passages: Isa 2:2-4; Micah 4:1-4; Zech 8:20-23; Zech 9:9-10 (christian’s love verse 9, but ignore verse10); Zech 14:16. In these passages it’s speaking of the nations (those who are “non-Jewish”, “non-Hebrew”, non descendants of Israel/Jacob) and what they will do at the “end of the…[Read more]

Hi Desire Truth,

YOU: You must remember, up until a few months ago we were basically on the same page in what we believed.

ME: Were we really though? I’d really like to know what all you think we were basically on the same page about?

You to a post to Gene or Carmel said, “Answer me, how can Jesus be the “root” of Jesse/David/Solomon when bot…[Read more]

Hi sonofGod and Gene,

Thanks for posting on this topic!

I believe there is a lot involved here and Paul speaks to it in great detail, especially throughout the book of Romans. That which Paul teaches I do find aligns with the sum of all scripture from the beginning of the OT to the end of the NT.

Defining the enmity is a good place to…[Read more]

Hi Desire Truth,

Totally understand being busy and not having the time to post. I have had spells with many months not coming on here for that reason and also sometimes honestly it’s because I needed a break.

YOU: It’s past time to verify what the NT says and ask if it aligns with the OT.

ME: With you saying the above, it doesn’t make me b…[Read more]
