Me: My post was about how Paul changed his opinion on the timing of Parousia of Jesus. Please go through the following para which you left out from my post.

But did he really. He spoke about wanting to be present with the Lord but should stay to help the Church instead.

And as I mentioned, there will be a generation that will see all things. Was…[Read more]

Still, when all said in done, a wolf is more honest than a wolf in sheep’s clothing.

gadam, you said:

ISAIAH 53:
In the original Hebrew texts, there are no chapter divisions, and Jew and Christian alike agree that chapter 53 is actually a continuation of the prophecy which begins at 52:13. Accordingly, our analysis must begin at that verse.

You could make that same argument that Isaiah 54 is a continuation and 55 and so on. But we…[Read more]

Me: It is a good argument. But Paul clearly specifies a leading role to Jesus in God’s creation process which is not supported in the Hebrew Bible. I wonder why it was necessary to include Jesus in creation of the world where God alone was the sole author and source and without any agent.

Think about it. There is God. He is alone. There is no o…[Read more]

This is why people buy property. It usually goes up. A place to store your wealth rather than watch it erode.

Hi Adam from India.

What city are you from.

I visited India 30 years ago.

Went to Delhi and went north into the Himalayas.

Beautiful landscapes in that part of India.

Here in New Zealand we managed to stop the virus, so life is almost normal here.

Do you think the vaccine will fix this?

I agree gene.

I find history fascinating.

Does ED J still hold the view that the KJV is the only true translation?

Yes, the MSM and Social Media need to be accountable.

If not, then many will stop using their services.

It’s already happening on a large scale.

Eventually, these will be pockets of the media world for Leftists only.

I am not so sure we are that close to the end of this age gene.

Could be decades to come yet.

Good point.

The Old Testament talks about the messiah. When the messiah came, he didn’t meet some people’s expectations. He wasn’t sent to satisfy human expectations.

Scripture says he would be rejected and that he was.

Some people still reject him to this day.

When he returns, he will find many are not prepared to meet him.

They will have no oil in their…[Read more]

Lightenup, sorry I know I have asked this before.

What was the verse you wanted me to look at.

Was it this one?

Note these words in that chapter.

And again, when God brings his firstborn into the world, he says,

So God is speaking,

He speaks about angels.

In speaking of the angels he says,

He then talks about the Son

But about the Son he says,

“Your throne, O God, will last for ever and ever;
    a scepter of justice will be the scepter of your ki…[Read more]

 ‘We who are alive, who are left until the coming of the Lord’, which may be taken to mean ‘we Christians who survive until the parousia’.

Are there not Christians today?

Lol.

One reason why I hardly read your posts. That is, I don’t like wasting time.

How about you stump up the no 1 reason why Jesus is not the messiah and give scriptur…[Read more]

More from Pallywood

gadam, that is now 2 parts of the Old Testament that clearly refer to the coming suffering messiah. Of course it is hidden from the wicked, but only the righteous will understand.

Psalm 22
gadam claims that the Old Testament does not speak of Jesus Christ in any way. While I have already proved his assumption wrong by quoting Isaiah 51, I now offer Psalm 22.

When Jesus died on the cross for humanities sins, he quoted Psalm 22:1. Back then, it was a practice to quote a scripture and the hearer would recite the rest of the…[Read more]

Me: I have already presented my arguments on Isaiah 53 in my earlier reply as it was about nation Israel as God’s servant.

Clearly, you have failed then. Anyone can see who this is about. No excuses. But let’s drop our intellectual level right down and pretend that this is about Israel, all the while without laughing. Now let’s see what Israel h…[Read more]

@gadam123

You say that Jesus hasn’t fulfilled any Old Testament prophecies. However this one is so recognisable as Jesus that even an Atheist would guess it to be Jesus, even if they didn’t believe that Jesus was a real historical person. So you are clearly wrong.

Isaiah 53

Who has believed our message
and to whom has the arm of the Lord…[Read more]
