The Thinker wrote:Quote Your view that Jesus equivocated is altogether presuppositional and without any basis in exegesis.Let me see, Jesus clears the physical temple and the Jews ask him what sign he will perform to prove he has authority he had to do so.  He answers them with the statement we speak of.  He switched the meaning of temple right t…[Read more]

ashermoshehthreepointonefour,I am not all that trustworthy of what is called “science” as it is subject to change as we learn more. To declare anything as certain in it is risky. I will state this and that is that with God a thousand years is a day a day is as a thousand years. In short God took a period of time and called it a day.For all I…[Read more]

The Thinker wrote:Quote Wow! I marvel that you invoke false witnesses for support.Even a false witness is a witness.  The question then is everything he states false.  Looking at it from hindsight I can certainly state Jesus is building a temple that is not made by human hands.  I can also state he not destroy the temple made by human hands.The Th…[Read more]

gollamudi,Let us speak of Micah 4:3 and the lack of credibility of some calling themselves Jew.  This passage in Micah parallels what is written in the book of the prophet Isaiah 2nd Chapter versus 1 to 5.   The prophet uses the words last days which can mean any particular length of kind God chooses it to mean.  He simply does not tell us pr…[Read more]

Quote (gollamudi @ Jan. 28 2010,15:07)So what way your “day=1000 year” theology related to Jewish Messiah?You sound like an unbeliever but I suppose you could state it is the theology of Mosses as it is covered in a prayer attributed to him.Psalms 90:4(NIV) reads:Quote For a thousand years in your sight are like a day that has just gone by,…[Read more]

gollamudi,Once again your source seems ignorant of the fact that with God a day can a thousand years and a thousand years a day.Do you understand the concept I speak of?

Worshipping Jesus,I did read you post but I have no wish to repeat myself and I have not progressed that much in that particular line of investigation. I did to some extent in my reply to The Thinker.I was hoping to hear what you thoughts on Jesus surrendering his Spirit to God are.

Quote (gollamudi @ Jan. 27 2010,22:36)Hi brother Kerwin,You say that the prophecy of pouring of God's Spirit was fulfilled at Pentecost in Acts, so what about the remaining part of the prophecy of Joel 2:28-32 ?….”The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the coming of the great and awesome day of the Lord.
