    Genealogies of Jesus

    Yes steeltoes and he failed miserably to (1) answer the question,(2) “stir up **** ”.

    Genealogies of Jesus

    Yes steeltoes, there are a few anomalies to those lists. Indeed and Luke is very insistent on what he is conveying to his readers, is he not? The son of Joseph? Not the son of God? Luke is not only explicit in what he says; he is adamant about what he says and is sure of his sources when...

    INDISPUTABLE Rational Proof That God Exists (Or Existed)

    And the same applies when we throw a God into the mix.

    Genealogies of Jesus

    Yes I did look closely at both those lists: Tamar - seduce her father-in-law (Genesis 38:12-19). Rahab - was a harlot (Joshua 2:1). Ruth - who secretly came to where Boaz was sleeping and spent the night with him. (Ruth 3:1-14). Bathsheba. King David slept with Bathsheba the wife of Uriah...

    Genealogies of Jesus

    Not at all. Why do you see querying these genealogical lists an as an attempt at ridicule? If those list have any validity at all, then I am sure the christian (or anyone else come to that) would be able to explain why these lists are(or at least appear to be) so blatantly contradictory? And...

    Genealogies of Jesus

    not according to (Luke 3:23-38.KJV) (Matthew 1:2-17 K J V). They both state that these are indeed the blood line of Joseph father of Jesus. Mary is not mentioned at all. So how do you know one is Joseph's and one is Mary's? I do not doubt for a second that christians would have "other ideas"...

    Genealogies of Jesus

    I do not have to do any such thing. Christian apologists offer no evidence that one of those genealogies is that of Jesus' mother Mary. Do you have any evidence that one of those lists is in fact a genealogical record of Mary's bloodline? I didn't think so. So why not simply answer the...

    Genealogies of Jesus

    No, he doesn't have to post any sort of reply at all ,does he? but he took the time to throw his penny's worth in all the same. But not with a reasonable response, just an attack on the questioner, as you seem to have done. If you do not know the answer then either simply say so or simply do not...

    Genealogies of Jesus

    I believe posting the question on this forum is research? It is a bonafide question. Why does the New Testament have two obviously different genealogies for Jesus? One also has to ask, why you, Jayhawker Soule do not simply attempt to answer the question instead of attacking the...

    INDISPUTABLE Rational Proof That God Exists (Or Existed)

    Becomes circular doesn't it? i.e. If there was nothing before anything, then where did it all come from? This is why, I believe, all religion is based on faith alone.

    Genealogies of Jesus

    The New Testament has two different genealogies for Jesus, Why is this? The Christian apologist will no doubt insist that one of the bloodlines is that of Jesus’ mother Mary. There is no evidence for this to be the case. The New Testament makes it quite clear that both Luke’s...

    The Baptist ?

    The zealots weren't happy with him, at all. Sorry by "the books" I meant Matthew, Mark Luke and John. This is what I believe. I believe the incident at the Jordan was confrontational. We can glean more when read in another context.

    The Baptist ?

    You haven't a clue have you? Did you miss these? how many times was John murdered? That is a simple question. you do not have to address it. Can a dead man be resurrected into a living man ? That is a simple question. you do not have to address it. What wondrous things did John do? That is a...

    The Baptist ?

    I thought I had answered, the scriptures tell us he was here to prepare the way of the lord and to call everyone to repent. But you haven't told me what it was that Jesus the sinless son of god, had to repent.

    The Baptist ?

    That is more of your opinion of me and is of no relevance.. why not address the questions, or simply ignore them.

    The Baptist ?

    why attack the questioner with childish name calling instead of addressing the question. So you should, you might eventually see the gaping inconsistencies, contradictions and deceitfulness of jesus, when you scratch the surface of the gospels. That is exactly what I do. I look at it as an...

    The Baptist ?

    I didn't say he did. but the scriptures say as such. I can agree with that. there are many parts of the NT that were revealed to be embarrassing not just to the gospel writers, but to the early christian church. Jesus learned from John . The Mandaeans certainly revered John above...

    The Baptist ?

    well john belived in the son of god he prepared the way, he seen the dove, so john then was without sin. Thank you for that. I believe you. But who ever told you may well have done. Yes you keep suggesting that, but not shown me anything in the scriptures that backs up anything you...

    The Baptist ?

    Good question, I have never understood the point of John The baptist at all. when any priest could have been chosen to "prepare the way". We didn't need the story of his conception, we didn't need to know his family background, we didn't need to know he jumped in the womb of his mother when...

    The Baptist ?

    yes, you do but that is not true is it? and neither does it say he did. Indeed everything points to him being 'righteous and without sin' but that is of course a matter of opinion and interpretation. yes I have I have researched that verse and found "to be born of women" to be an...
