Quote (gollamudi @ Feb. 10 2010,20:45)That is what Christianity believes. But for an orthodox Jew coming of Messiah is still not yet happened. How can you say their Messiah has come without the fulfillment of major requirement for their Messiah?It is very simple.  The Orthodox Jews believe in a lie constructed by man.  In the United States we h…[Read more]

Nick Hassan:Quote You ask about Mt7 as if it shows the Spirit is a PRIZE given to the righteous.That is not what I meant.  I do not believe we are in disagreement on this issue.  I will attempt to speak more clearly.  The Spirit of Holiness is gained through the obedience to Jesus' teaching that apply to being reborn in Spirit.  Living by the spi…[Read more]

Quote (Nick Hassan @ Feb. 10 2010,00:36)Hi KW, The Spirit of God is not a prize for perfect obedience to Jesus. We need to seek the teachings of Jesus about the kingdom and how to enter it and obey those.Repentant weak failures and those aware of their helplessness in the fight against their sinful nature are welcome but many still try to save…[Read more]

Gollamundi,Could you answer my question about how God's desire for mercy and not sacrifice relates to Jesus' choice to die on the cross?I also ask you to consider that the penalty for any sin is death.These are some other questions to consider.What does repent mean?What does atone mean?

Quote (terraricca @ Feb. 08 2010,19:48)kerwinyes,but in this case the word Holyspirit can be changed by “the knowledge of the word of God”and the spirit of christ ,is the understanding of the word that God give to those who love him.the great question is “how is this done”??I am not sure I understand your question.  Are you asking how one…[Read more]

Quote (terraricca @ Feb. 08 2010,01:27)hi it seems that no one can answer the question “what is the holy spirit “if you can recieve it ,if you can be in it ,if it can come in you,???????I answered it at least in part.  The Holy Spirit is the spirit of righteousness which is why when you walk according to its ways you do not sin.  There is more t…[Read more]

The problem with our Christianity is it doesn't reply the queries of Jewish views which are strongly supported by their scriptures.There is more than one form of Judeo-Christianity.  If you cherry pick the forms then you can certainly find what you want but it most likely will not be the truth.God promised the Holy Spirit and that spirit has now…[Read more]

Quote (gollamudi @ Feb. 07 2010,20:40)I started believing a lot of what an orthodox Jew believes.I have more respect for the Orthodox Jews as they seem to be more sincere in their beliefs but they are still Pharisees whose doctrine was false 2000 years ago and has only evolved since then.I believe they will admit they are the descendants of the Pharisees.

GollamundiQuote How the Spirit of God has become spirit of Jesus?My conclusion is that since Jesus was filled with the spirit of righteousness it was called the spirit of Christ.  I also believe that we get confused as the same label can be applied to more that one thing.  I do not know if that is the case here.Still, you have the ability to t…[Read more]

The Roman day began at midnight so that would be 9 in the morning.  The Jewish and Greek day began at sunset of the previous day which would put it somewhere in the wee hours of the morning which I find unlikely.  It is certainly not impossible though the time of sunset in April and March of 2010 was 5:30 to 7:00 meaning he would have died b…[Read more]

Quote (gollamudi @ Feb. 06 2010,17:14)One doesn't have any right to rebuke a brother unless he himself is in truth IMO.That is a fairly vague statement. I do agree that you need to check to make sure that you are not falsely accusing your brother. I believe you also should be tactful if possible.
