    True and False Prophets - Just and Honest Determination

    I judge who Baha'u'llah is by his non fulfilment of Bible prophecies and his denial of Biblical teachings and I judge who Jesus is by His fulfilment of Bible prophecies.

    True and False Prophets - Just and Honest Determination

    It is not weak evidence according to historians like Bart Ehrman who is scathing about those who deny that Jesus existed.

    True and False Prophets - Just and Honest Determination

    It can be proven from the Bible that Baha'u'llah is not the return of Christ. But of course that depends on whether you believe the Bible or not. If you believe Baha'u'llah instead of the Bible then the Bible proves nothing to you. Well Baha'u'llah did not need to rely on the Bible to claim...

    True and False Prophets - Just and Honest Determination

    Tell me about the prophecies you are referring to. In Daniel "one like a son of man" with "a" and no capital letters for Son or Man, means 'one like a man'. Jesus used the title "Son of Man" for Himself to show that He was a real man and to point to Daniel and whom He was in OT prophecy. As...

    True and False Prophets - Just and Honest Determination

    You agree that you have to deny the certain verses of the New Testament are untrue. You have understated that considerably since there are a lot more than certain verses which you regard as untrue and you need to do that in order to accept the teachings of Baha'u'llah, since those teaching...

    There are no eyewitness accounts of Jesus in the New Testament

    Here is one that I just listened to also. Good for witnessing to historicity of things in gospel.

    There are no eyewitness accounts of Jesus in the New Testament

    I like the way Gary Habermas does that, getting rid of the little objections that we get hooked into and going to the important thing, the divinity, death and resurrection of Jesus and showing that they are very early historical data for the truth of the gospel message. (and this from someone...

    There are no eyewitness accounts of Jesus in the New Testament

    As I have said, humans have experienced the supernatural. That is not the sort of evidence that your faith requires, not that still is evidence.

    There are no eyewitness accounts of Jesus in the New Testament

    Have you never heard from people on this forum, other sceptics, that science does not prove things. With that in mind, we all believe things that have not been proven, including skeptics. But for some reason you want to say that your scientific evidence is the only evidence that counts and any...

    There are no eyewitness accounts of Jesus in the New Testament

    There is no evidence that a creator was not needed. If you believe that a creator was not needed then that is a belief without evidence. If you want to call your creator a leprechaun then go ahead. If you want to say, like science does, that it is not known if there was a creator that is OK. I...

    True and False Prophets - Just and Honest Determination

    When I look for answers to the thousands of attacks that are made against the bible, I usually find that the Bible is confirmed or at least not shown to be wrong.

    True and False Prophets - Just and Honest Determination

    Salem was meant to be the city of Jerusalem. There was no change of location when the name was changed. When God says this in the Psalm, He was not referring to Mt Carmel or Haifa or Akka. Psalm 132: 13 For the Lord has chosen Zion, he has desired it for his dwelling, saying, 14 “This is...

    True and False Prophets - Just and Honest Determination

    Yes there are many words in the Bible that Baha'u'llah needs to change the meaning of so that Baha'is have something to hang onto when they notice that the actual dictionary meaning of those words in the Bible shows that Baha'u'llah cannot be whom he claimed to be. That is begging the...

    True and False Prophets - Just and Honest Determination

    I judge the religion to be wrong and the prophet to be a false prophet and a false Christ. Gal 5:22-23 has nothing to do with that judgement.

    True and False Prophets - Just and Honest Determination

    Yes they are resistant to the facts as are all people who are devoted to and have life investment in a the false teachings of their particular cult.

    True and False Prophets - Just and Honest Determination

    The New Testament is evidence for Jesus as are the mention of Jesus by historians and the Jews etc.

    We all want the truth.

    True and False Prophets - Just and Honest Determination

    It can be proven if Baha'u'llah is the return of Christ or not. We do that by looking at the Bible and seeing that, amongst other things, Baha'u'llah was not the same Jesus the disciples saw going up to heaven and that he did not come in the way the disciples saw Jesus go. (Acts 1:9-12) We can...

    True and False Prophets - Just and Honest Determination

    OK if that is what you meant, my error. However the prophecies for the return of Christ had not been fulfilled for when Baha'u'llah came AND Baha'u'llah is not the same Jesus and did not come the same way the disciples say Him ascend to heaven. Daniel 7:13 actually says "one like a son of...

    True and False Prophets - Just and Honest Determination

    Yes that is right, you are judging the truthfulness of the Bible (what is taught in Christianity) and you are doing that based on what Baha'u'llah and others who are his disciples say. You judge Christianity (the teachings of the New Testament) as untrue. Everything you say shows that...
