Like I said, truth means nothing to you.
Welcome to Religious Forums, a friendly forum to discuss all religions in a friendly surrounding.

True, you don't need to do anything but die (and pay taxes). But if you challenge the claim that "the Bible is a whole,"
then you must show why your assertion, that it is not a whole, is true.
In the absence of that, your assertion is groundless.
Well, for starters, the Bible as a whole shows (is a type, symbol, picture of) who Jesus is. That's why the following are found in its individual books.
In Genesis-------------Jesus is the promised seed of the woman (Lk 1:34; Ro 16:20)
In Exodus--------------Jesus is the Passover Lamb, the Lawgiver, the Intercessor (1 Co 5:7; Mt 5:23-47; Heb 7:5)
In Leviticus-----------Jesus is the High Priest, the atoning sacrifice (Heb 7:23-28)

In Kings----------------Jesus is the reigning king (1 Co 15:25)
In Ezra-----------------Jesus is the faithful scribe (Lk 16:17; Mt 5:18, 24:35)
In Nehemiah----------Jesus is the restorer, the builder of the broken wall (Ro 8:19-22; 2Co 5:17)
In Esther---------------Jesus is the advocate (Ro 8:24, Heb 7:25)
In Job------------------Jesus is the suffering righteous one (Ac 3:14, 7:52)
In Psalms---------------Jesus is the Lord, our Shepherd (Jn 10:14)
In Proverbs------------Jesus is the true wisdom of God (1 Co 1:24)
In Ecclesiastes--------Jesus is the meaningful goal (Mt 16:24-26)

In Isaiah----------------Jesus is the Prince of Peace (Lk 1:79; Ac 10:36; Ro 5:1; Eph 2:13-16; 2 Th 3:16; Heb 7:3, 11, 17)
In Jeremiah-----------Jesus is the weeping prophet (Lk 19:41-44)
In Ezekiel--------------Jesus is the wonderful four-faced man (Rev 4:6-8)
In Daniel---------------Jesus is fourth man in the fiery furnace
In Hosea---------------Jesus is eternal husband married to backslider (1 Co 1:1-3, 5:1-2, 11:17-22)
In Joel-----------------Jesus is the baptizer with the Holy Spirit (Mt 3:11)
In Amos----------------Jesus is the burden bearer (1 Pe 2:24)
In Obadiah------------Jesus is the Savior (Mt 1:21, Lk 2:11, Jn 3:17)
In Jonah---------------Jesus is the missionary (Mt 4:17, 23-25)
In Micah---------------Jesus is the messenger with beautiful feet (Ro 10:15)
In Nahum--------------Jesus is the avenger (Jn 5:22, 8:26, 12:31)
In Habakkuk-----------Jesus is the evangelist pleading for revival (Mt 23:37)
In Zephaniah----------Jesus is the Lord Mighty to Save (Heb 7:25)
In Haggai--------------Jesus is the restorer of the lost heritage (Jn 3:16, 18, 36)
In Zechariah----------Jesus is the fountain opened in the house of David for cleansing of sin (Heb 9:14)
Malachi----------------Jesus is the Son of Righteousness rising with healing in his wings (1 Jn 1:7)
These are some of the very tight links among the books of the OT and the NT, establishing that the Bible is, indeed, a whole.
I knew you couldn't show how I misinterpreted the types in http://www.religiousforums.com/forum/2290408-post950.htmlNope.
.....
I knew you couldn't show how I misinterpreted the types in http://www.religiousforums.com/forum/2290408-post950.html
which you said there that you could easily do.
Well then. . .what is your view of the NT reports of Jesus' "heresy" regarding the Scriptures. . .which I presented to you in
http://www.religiousforums.com/forum/2287311-post82.html
in response to your charge there?
Who-o-o-a there, podna'! . .Nice try, cowboy!(This link back to your post shows exactly what verses you were referring to, which are not those in the link following.)
You still haven't produced verses from the OT to support these claims. http://www.religiousforums.com/forum/2284573-post873.html
Nice dance step there, cowboy. . .movement seven. . .where you try to jump back for whatever reason to a former topic you wish you hadn't nixed above. . .no, sir.http://www.religiousforums.com/forum/2284573-post873.html
For the sake of clarification, smoky, THIS is the question that I will not address.
That means that, with you, I will not go more into detail about that specific topic with you. I will not give basis, your satisfaction, for my previous statement.

You said you could easily show my "misinterpretation" of the types in

at points 1), 2) and 3) there.
So put your money where your mouth is, podna'. . .stop the fancy two-steppin. . .and show my "misinterpretation" of the types there. . .but you can't, can you?
Who-o-o-a there, podna'! . .Nice try, cowboy!
That is not the issue at hand, this is the issue at hand: http://www.religiousforums.com/forum/2290408-post950.html --where you request the verses and all the red letters are.
It's points 1), 2) and 3) there, the types which you said you could easily show I "misinterpret."

Thanks, gal. . .Yo - Smoky.
While it is clear that our main dispute is shelved for the nonce, I've been watching the dance between you and angellous.
Listen - You gave a long list of "types" from the OT, but gave the verses from the NT where you think they were fulfilled.
Well and good.
But the one thing you aren't doing is listing the verses in the OT where the types are originally displayed.
Do that, and I think the annoying part of this miscommunication will go away.
Who-o-o-a there, podna'! . .Nice try, cowboy!(This link back to your post shows exactly what verses you were referring to, which are not the ones in the link following.)

You know...Thanks, gal. . .
That requires searching 34 books of the OT to support the NT claims, which I provided regarding them.
There should be no request from a Christian that I prove the NT is true. It's claims alone should be sufficient.
<snip>
I see no need to search 34 books of the OT for references to prove the NT claims are true, when the short list is adequate to do the same. . .unless there is another reason for doing so, as I have asserted.
You make a good argument, Harmonious.You know...
I'm not Christian, and in order to follow this line of reasoning, I request that you post them for me.
Or for people who are searching for a Christian understanding and might possibly be swayed by your arguments if they knew what you are talking about.
The thing you need to remember is that the person you are debating is NOT the only reader.
I've received random frubals from people I've never heard from before because they weren't part of the conversation, but they read what I wrote and told me that I gave a useful answer to something they were thinking.
Even if you don't think angellous needs the list, make the list anyway. Even if the dispute isn't resolved, and even you are argued with regarding your sources, supplying those sources adds gravitas to your argument.
It doesn't mean that people will agree, but it DOES mean that people will know what page you are honestly on.
List the OT verses, and I think the annoying part of this miscommunication will go away.
And he still thinks I changed the point when I later edited the post to clarify the word "shows" there. He wasn't up to speed on "types" and didn't realize
that "shows who Jesus is" means in types to those who know what they are.
EDIT: So, it's as I said. . .you can't easily show my "misinterpretion" of the types in the issue at hand. . .but of course, that's only because they are "traditional types."Amazing.
But this may reveal why you don't have access to the truth.
In order to access truth, you must be honest with yourself, God, and others.
It's a simple fact that I'll know more about the NT that you ever will, and I'll keep going beyond you even faster the more you can't face truth.
The issue of "type" is elementary, but even so you have waffled from the OT books to the three specific traditional types.
EDIT: More argument about the argument. . .I think that you realize in your first list that you have no types (or at least it's not what you thought you were saying).
In the sum of all arrogance - or perhaps pathological lying - you have thought that your lies equal the truth of the NT.
You engage in too much mockery, ridicule, scoffing, intellectual pride and disdain for me to trust you with that.Such self-deceit is impressive, but depressing.
I'd love to have an honest conversation with you.
Interesting.You make a good argument, Harmonious.
Okay. . .I'll post some off the top of the list for now, but please do not ask me to defend them, because my only defense is the NT's claims regarding them,
which you do not believe.
Some do not have a specific NT reference, as in Gen 3:15, but nevertheless, the NT reports make the connection obvious,
depending on how complete is your grasp of the Scriptures (big qualifier there).
I will explain their meaning further if you need it, but don't expect me to defend the NT claims. The NT is a matter of faith to me, not a matter of proof.
