CAN YOU PROVIDE SCRIPTURES THAT SAYS JESUS WAS “CURSED" ASIDE FROM PAUL’S?
1 Corinthians 2:10-16 but God has revealed it to us by his Spirit. The Spirit searches all things, even the deep things of God. For who among men knows the thoughts of a man except the man’s spirit within him? In the same way no one knows the thoughts of God except the Spirit of God. We have not received the spirit of the world but the Spirit who is from God, that we may understand what God has freely given us. This is what we speak, not in words taught us by human wisdom but in words taught by the Spirit, expressing spiritual truths in spiritual words. The man without the Spirit does not accept the things that come from the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him, and he cannot understand them, because they are spiritually discerned. The spiritual man makes judgments about all things, but he himself is not subject to any man’s judgment: “For who has known the mind of the Lord that he may instruct him?” But we have the mind of Christ.
PAUL CLEARLY DESCRIBED WHO ARE THOSE HE CONSIDERED “CURSED”;
Galatians 3:10 All who rely on observing the law are under a curse, for it is written: “Cursed is everyone who does not continue to do everything written in the Book of the Law.”
UNDERSTANDING THE ABOVE VERSE WILL BRING US TO THE CORRECT UNDERSTANDING OF THE FF: VERSE;
Galatians 3:13 Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us, for it is written: “Cursed is everyone who is hung on a tree.”
WE SHOULD ALL KNOW THAT THE LORD JESUS IS THE “WORD THAT BECAME FLESH" AND ACCORDING TO JOHN “THE WORD IS GOD". (john 1:1-3 & 14)
GOD IS THE SUPREME BEING AND AUTHORITY WHO CREATED THE LAW FOR MAN AND NOT FOR HIMSELF SO WHAT IS MAN TO CALL HIM “CURSED"?
WHO AMONG BELIEVERS WOULD QUESTION GOD’S VULNERABILITY TO CURSES OR WHATEVER EVIL ACTS AGAINST HIM? ...PETER EXPLAINS IT BETTER;
2 Peter 3:14-18 So then, dear friends, since you are looking forward to this, make every effort to be found spotless, blameless and at peace with him. Bear in mind that our Lord’s patience means salvation, just as our dear brother Paul also wrote you with the wisdom that God gave him. He writes the same way in all his letters, speaking in them of these matters. His letters contain some things that are HARD TO UNDERSTAND, which IGNORANT and UNSTABLE people DISTORT, as they do the other Scriptures, to their own destruction. Therefore, dear friends, since you already know this, be on your guard so that you may not be carried away by the ERROR of lawless men and fall from your secure position. But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and forever! Amen.
1 Timothy 6:3-5 If anyone teaches false doctrines and does not agree to the sound instruction of our Lord Jesus Christ and to godly teaching, he is conceited and understands nothing. He has an unhealthy interest in controversies and quarrels about words that result in envy, strife, malicious talk, evil suspicions and constant friction between men of corrupt mind, who have been robbed of the truth and who think that godliness is a means to financial gain.
isaiah 5:20-24 Woe to those who call evil good and good evil, who put darkness for light and light for darkness, who put bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter. Woe to those who are wise in their own eyes and clever in their own sight. Woe to those who are heroes at drinking wine and champions at mixing drinks, who acquit the guilty for a bribe, but deny justice to the innocent. Therefore, as tongues of fire lick up straw and as dry grass sinks down in the flames, so their roots will decay and their flowers blow away like dust; for THEY HAVE REJECTED THE LAW OF THE LORD ALMIGHTY AND SPURNED THE WORD OF THE HOLY ONE OF ISRAEL.
.. GOD CANNOT BE MOCKED…
...LET GOD BE TRUE AND EVERY MAN A LIAR…
John 14:6 Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.

"Jesus is accursed" {<G331> ANATHEMA}; and no one can say, "Jesus is Lord," except by the Holy Spirit.

CURSED <G1944>IS EVERYONE WHO HANGS ON A TREE"—

You see, you really NEED TO examine the GREEK in words that there is a questionable translation on.
ONLY THE "ANATHEMA" carries the forbidden meaning of that GREEK WORD pertaining to Christ. As you can see, there are at least THREE different words, that can be translated "Curse" or "Accursed". THEREFORE, you are incorrectly applying it to all THREE. Remember this: ENGLISH is a POOR Language at best, to translate the Bible into.
Here is another example. In English, we ONLY have
THREE primary VERB TENSES, while in
GREEK they have SIX primary VERB TENSES. Like I said, English is a POOR LANGUAGE to translate the Bible into.
Below the three crosses, will be those GREEK VERB TENSES, and NOTICE the One that causes the MOST confusion, is the one they call Present Tense. IT DOES NOT CARRY THE SAME MEANING as our English Present Tense. It is an action that is a lifelong continuous lifestyle. For example.
1 John 2:4 (KJV)
[SUP]
4 [/SUP] He that saith, I know him, and
keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him.
That word
KEEPETH is in the GREEK PRESENT TENSE,
it does NOT imply Perfection, IT IMPLIES a lifestyle of continual striving to KEEP. And when we FAIL,
1 John 1:9, that
WE CONFESS is also in the PRESENT TENSE, implying we are habitually confessing each new sin that we find in our life.
How do I know which Verb Tense, is each verb? You go to the site listed at the bottom, then look up at the Menu Bar and you will find see the KJV with a space to the left of it to type in the Verse you want. Not all the
Tools are there in all the version of the Bible, so leave it on the KJV. Then type in the verse, and it will open a new page, with the entire chapter. Then click on
TOOLS to the left of that verse. That pops open another window pertaining to that one VERSE, and you will see to the right of
the verb you are searching for,
PARSE, so you click on the
PARSE, and a smaller window with info on the VERB in question will pop up. The
SECOND LINE should be the
VERB TENSE.

TENSE
Tense plays a very crucial role in the study of New Testament exegesis. Dana and Mantey understood its significance in saying that "no element of the Greek language is of more importance to the student of the New Testament than the matter of tense". [1] Tense deals both with time and kind of action. Ancient Greek focused more on the latter of these aspects (that is, kind of action); however, time does play a role in verb tense when the mood is indicative (the four moods are explained below).
The aspect of a verb correlates with the kind of action. It determines whether the verb's action is punctiliar, linear or perfected. These are described in the following table.

[/TABLE]
The Present TenseThe present tense can either be continuous/ongoing or undefined. The continuous present is usually translated as "I am loosing" while the undefined is best translated as "I loosen." When the present is used with the indicative mood it denotes present time.
The Pluperfect TenseThe pluperfect has the same aspect as the perfect, yet it's time is farther removed into the past than that of the perfect. Both the completed action and the results of that action occur in the past. It also represents action that is complete and viewed from a point in the past time. [3] The usual translation for the pluperfect is "I had loosened."
