No, you are marginalizing a Middle Eastern race of people. Besides, you are NOT stating the facts. "Palestine's" word origins date back to the Philistines--which referred to the land back in 1250 BC -- more than 1200 years before Jesus' birth, contrary to what you claimed. It got renamed...

Sorry to hear you are that intent on marginalizing a race of people. Let alone the race that Jesus was born in to.

Nope. Does it bother you that He came as a Palestinian for some reason?

There was this driver on the highway who was speaking to me in tongues. I think he might have not been Christian.

I think it's okay to be interested in knowing what Jesus looked like. I want to know Jesus more, and as such I am interested to know what Jesus looked like. We already know Jesus could come as any race He wanted. He could come as an illegal immigrant, and still be God.

That's an amazing lineage. Yes, if someone traces their lineage back to 70ad in Jerusalem and says they are Sephardi, I tend to believe them. At least Sephardim have some claim to being Semitic. Not that it matters--your profession of faith in Jesus Christ is what matters--but.... I have...

Your verse says absolutely nothing about race, and it is not the Bible you believe, but your own racist perversion of it. And by the way, Ashkenazi Jews, which compose 85% of the so-called "race", are Caucasian. As in they literally descended from the Caucasus region. Even according to your...

Huh? Did I ever at any time say there wasn't a Jacob and Ishmael in the Bible? There is absolutely nothing in the Bible remotely supporting the idea that the Arab race of people are descendants of Ishmael, and all the Jewish "race" are descendants of Jacob. And in fact there is plenty of...

I was formerly Southern Baptist, too. Grew up as that as a kid. Even grew up to vote a few times in the Baptist General Convention. Later, as I grew to make my own belief decisions, I went a different direction. Southern Baptists aren't all bad, but there are issues I have with it.

Three people have died from drinking hand sanitizer so far. At least one from hydroxychloroquine. Which is what happens when you place your faith in the wrong person.

I voted for Bush, and was with the Religious Right every step of the way when they pursued impeachment against Clinton. And now, today, I very much regret both actions. Fortunately, I wasn't registered to vote in Florida. But even when faced with derogatory terms like "leftwinged nutjobs"...

Fact checker??? I"m sorry, but that is not packed. Virtually the entire balcony is empty, the bottom tier has empty seats, and the overflow has no one. And oh, by the way: if there are protesters, that's called democracy. Physically threatening them, as Trump did, is not...

No, I follow the God who is *NOT* racist. As your OWN verse which has absolutely nothing to do with Jesus' race says. Like I said, daring say the obvious that Jesus was Palestinian doesn't sit well with many Christians. And you didn't disappoint. Keep those dislikes coming. Sunday...

Well, if you hate traitors so much, you could start at the top, you know. Just sayin'.

You know what? I think I just learned something. Originally when i read your post, I was a bit dismissive, since I thought John was speaking symbolically and that we cannot know his actual appearance from a symbolic description. BUT--John saw Jesus face-to-face. He probably described...

Pure unadulterated urban legend.

Time to come to grips with the fact that the reason people didn't show up to his rally is because most people don't like him. It's not difficult to figure out.

I will give this much: posting "ALL WHITES ARE RACISTS" in all caps got me to open up the thread and read it.

Banning churches from occupying first floors of downtown buildings? i don't see that holding up in Federal court.

I believe the difference between the words lies in the connotation. A "convert" implies he was something else; now he is a Christian. The word is applied much more strongly if the person was Jewish, or Wicca, or Mormon, for example. The term is weaker if he was saved as a little kid, or...
