Get real. When Jesus words do not agree with your theology then it is word play?Very weak indeed!WJAre you stating that Jesus was not using word play…[Read more]

Mikeboil,I agree!

The Thinker,I may have implied in that last thread I am certain of what Jesus meant.  I am not.  I am merely brainstorming at this time in investigating this mystery.  I want to point out that John also tells us that on the day he was resurected Jesus breaths on his students and tells them “Receive the Holy Spirit” and then tells them as “the Fa…[Read more]

The Thinker,I do not believe you understand what I was pointing out.   Jesus was indeed speaking of his body when he stated destroy this temple but when he stated “I will raise it again in three days” he was speaking of the new covenant.

Quote (thethinker @ Jan. 26 2010,05:50)TO ALL:Jesus said that He would raise Himself from the dead.19 Jesus answered and said to them, “Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.” 20 Then the Jews said, “It has taken forty-six years to build this temple, and will You raise it up in three days?” 21 But He was speaking of the temple…[Read more]

Quote (selah @ Jan. 26 2010,07:37)Thanks for your reply Kerwin,It would be most interesting for us to know why the other Hebrew word (single unique one) was not used as that would have made the statement under discussion unmistakably clear.I guess we will not know God's reason for that, this side of heaven.I agree!

Quote (gollamudi @ Jan. 25 2010,11:42)Hi brother Gene,Zech 12:9 has not been fulfilled so far. It will be fulfilled in the last days when all Jewish people will be filled with God's spirit and be led by Messiah who will establish a political knigdom to them. Daniel's 70 weeks' prophecy has already been dealt in my other posts.Thanks and…[Read more]

Quote (gollamudi @ Jan. 25 2010,11:39)Hi brother Gene,I am sorry to say that there is no scripture in O.T to say that Messiah will be cut off in the middle of a week or middle of a time span.

Gollamundi,Why are you ignoring my questions?  I quoted the prophets and yet you appear to choose not to believe them.  I asked which ones you do not believe.Do you not realize that the reason one prophets states that the people of Israel and Judea will stumble over the Anointed one is because they do not hunger and thirst for righteousness?  …[Read more]
