But nobody among Joseph's ancestors had been a king since the Babylonian captivity. If Joseph had truly been able to pass on the throne of David to Jesus, why did God the Father give that throne to Jesus? There is absolutely nothing in Scripture that tells us that Joseph legally passed the...

Frederickdoc, your post is confusing in many ways. It starts by quoting things I have posted. Then comes: "DavidLamb said: Walk is the Spirit speak in the Spirit then all The Lord say to Be Is Absolute Not david post text" But I didn't post those words. They are your words. Where does the...

I am not a liar, and I don't think it can be right for you to call other posters on Christian Chat liars. Just because I don't agree with your strange doctrines doesn't mean I am lying.

Normally, a king would pass on the kingdom to his eldest son. In the case of Jesus, the Bible does NOT say that He inherited the throne from Joseph, but that God the Father gave it to Him, and besides, it refers to the throne as the throne of David, never the throne of Joseph. Also, you talk...

Where in the Bible are we told that Joseph was a king in exile? We are told that Jesus was given the throne of David by His heavenly Father, not that He somehow inherited it from Joseph. So it might be an explanation, but it is not a biblical one. God often spoke to kings through prophets...

i agree, but was replying to this from frederickdoc: "Well if joseph was alive when jesus was crucified honestly the seed would died again. What so hard to know that?"

So when He said the words in Matthew 13:13, was that a parable? You keep saying that He always spoke in parables.

Yet Scripture tells us that the Saviour would rule forever on the throne of David: Isa 9:7 Of the increase of His government and peace There will be no end, Upon the throne of David and over His kingdom, To order it and establish it with judgment and justice From that time forward, even...

i know that Joseph was not the biological father of Jesus. And it is fairly certain that Joseph had died before the crucifixion, but we aren't told when he died.

Why would the seed have died? i am sure Joseph wasn't the only male descendant of David.

Joseph would not have to be dead. The Scriptures are clear. The angel Gabriel told Mary that God the Father would give to the Son Mary was to bear the throne of His father David. Joseph was not a king. There is no mention of "the throne of Joseph". Joseph did not rule on a throne, or...

So you agree that Joseph was not an actual king, and that the throne had been taken from the descendants of David since the time of Jeconiah. In that case, why do you keep saying that Joseph had to die early to vacate the throne so that Jesus could take iit?

No apology necessary assure you. Yes, I agree that in quoting Isaiah 7:14 Matthew was pointing to David too, as verse 13 mentions the house of David. Thanks.

Thanks, I agree with your post, except for this part: "and the angel did tell Joseph that Jesus would “sit on the throne of David” (Luke 1:32–33)" That was Gabriel speaking to Mary, not Joseph. But thanks again anyway.

We don't read anything in the Bible about when Joseph died. Nor do we read that Jesus would take the throne from Joseph. Joseph, though a descendant of David, was a carpenter, not a king. Also, it was Mary, not Joseph, who was told by the angel that God the Father would gve Jesus the throne...

No, here (in Dino246) is somebody who rejects your very peculiar interpretation of Scripture. Neither he nor I reject the truth of Scripture. You have said you have only read less than a quarter of the Bible. Do you intend in future to read the other three quarters? If not, II would say that...

Context is important. The surrounding verses, and indeed Mark 4:34 itself, make clear that Mark is not saying that Jesus never spoke directly and straightforwardly. Here is that verse with some of the surrounding verses: NKJV Mrk 4:33 And with many such parables He spoke the word to them as...

I thought ACTS was an acronym connected with prayer - Adoration, Confession, Thanksgiving, Supplication. MMP can stand for Multiple Medical Problems. (I don't kn ow if that was the one you had in mind.) MEP

I wonder where in the Bible you get the idea that we have to assign a number to each letter in a word (whether in Hebrew, Greek or English)? You picked out certain words the numbers of whose letters all add up to the same total. But there are plenty of other words that add up to the same...

I do not refuse to humble myself before God. Sometimes He does speak in parables and dark sayings, but not always.
