    The OT today

    How is that any different from Christians who deny that the NT has errors in it?

    The OT today

    The context is exactly what I'm saying. God sends saviors. Jesus was a savior that God sent. The word used in Obadiah 1:21 is "Savior" for a reason, it is to bring retribution upon those who are oppressing God's people and word. Likewise, Jesus was the savior to judge and bring retribution upon...

    The OT today

    That's fine, but I'm demonstrating for other more objective minded people that there are flaws. Are you aware that the DSS version of Jeremiah is shorter than the official one? How do you determine which one is right? I don't deny the Jeremiah wrote it, or that the Prophets wrote their...

    New Proof the Virgin Mary was an Alien from Outer Space!

    I prefer to use olive oil.

    Christians..."Trinity"?

    No, he will not ever sin. Likewise, if an Angel was incarnated on Earth (at least those who did not descend to mate with human women in Genesis 6), especially the Archangels or the highest in command of the Angels, the Firstborn among them, the "Logos", he or she would not sin either.

    Christians..."Trinity"?

    I was just asking if you agreed or knew that John 1:1c should read "a god" since you didn't counter COTW's use of it with such, that is all.

    Which prophecies did Jesus fulfill as to be the Messiah?

    Oh believe me, I'm well aware that I'm the exception. My goal, if you haven't noticed, is to show that the mainstream view should not represent the original (i.e. the Early Chrisitans like Cerinthus did not believe in Virgin Birth or Trinity or Paul or most orthodox doctrines).. If anything...

    Which prophecies did Jesus fulfill as to be the Messiah?

    Considering Genesis 38 is widely considered an interpolation, I wouldn't doubt that part was added in too.

    Doing the Law

    Okay, why don't you tell me what you think it means. Do you think sin does not exist anymore? Do you think Christians are welcome to commit sin as they please? Do you believe a Christian will simply be magically prevented from committing sin? Do you believe the Mark of the Christian...

    Oh, so you don't believe in Obadiah 1:21. I see.

    The OT today

    That's fine and all but the bulk of evidence and scholarship is against your position. It's a nice fantasy to believe in but the facts suggest otherwise. In a way it's really no better than Christias who believe the NT is perfect and reject and ignore all manuscript evidence that says otherwise...

    Which prophecies did Jesus fulfill as to be the Messiah?

    This "Jesus believer" will tell you that the geneologies are garbage interpolations that were shoe-horned in later. He'll also tell you that the Isaiah 7:14 thing was referring to someone else.

    For the Christians (Abrahamic only)

    This was your last reply to me on that thread, Bland. I'm not sure what kind of response you were looking for or what you were asking me to respond to. The issue of whether the last chapter of John clashes with Matthew is if anything a factor that favors an anti-Trinity viewpoint, and I don't...

    The OT today

    The text says if they refuse to obey the Law, they will get struck with some nasty surprises and consequences and will be shamed and brought to lowliness. It says that if we obey Sabbath correctly and avoid doing what God doesn't want us to do, we will be made to rise to greatness. The whole...

    Which prophecies did Jesus fulfill as to be the Messiah?

    The original Gospels most likely did not have the concept of the Virgin Birth, it was probably a later interpolation. This was a somewhat hot topic of scholars in the early 20th century but it kinda got swept under the rug during the revival period, along with other things like the Tubingen...

    Which prophecies did Jesus fulfill as to be the Messiah?

    No I mean, it comes gradually after he exists in the flesh and is martyred as the Guilt Offering. I'm saying the prophecy may reflect the "end result" of the age. There's a reason why the Rabbis can't agree on how the "Messianic age" works.

    The OT today

    Benoni, apparently you don't care much for rational debate or answering someone else's points or questions, but just want to preach your opinion and insist that you're right. Typical Christian behavior yes, but I see no merit in even trying to discuss this with you since you seem pretty bent on...

    Which prophecies did Jesus fulfill as to be the Messiah?

    Or it could easily mean that peace comes after his arrival after a great age of tribulations.

    The OT today

    As if yours isn't? In Sirach, God is called the "King of king of kings". The concept is that Wisdom was the First created being, he is the "Firstborn of all Creation", which implies not only that he was made first, but he holds authority over all created things, but is still under the...

    The OT today

    Jesus is a "Minor god" in that the only "Major" God is THE god, who is the Father, but more higher in rank than "Satan" who is "The god of this age" in the sense that he is given power over the world except where the Father intervenes through his agent, the Logos. John 1:1c should read "And the...
