In this, we fully agree. Completely clueless. Even basic logic and grammar seems difficult. Basic present-tense question of current status: Have those who claim to be Israel turned back to obedience with their whole hearts? At any point in recorded history since 70AD? Yes or no? Did the...

I'm back. Entering busy season at work. Let's explore this. Can we agree that those who do not accept Christ are still under the law (of Moses)? It's why we say we're all guilty outside of faith in Christ. Now, drilling deeper, in Galatians, Paul warns that if the Jews continued to justify...

I agree with this, but I'm arguing that the singular event hasn't happened yet. The Almighty is specific about what is supposed to happen and when. Deuteronomy 30 starts with... "And it shall come to pass..." So immediately, we know whenever we read this phrase, the Almighty is sharing...

Amen, because we know that without faith in the Messiah, no one can receive the Holy Spirit to be compelled to obey. Obedience isn't possible without faith in Him. However, oftentimes, the counter-argument made is that Israel's time to believe in the Messiah is not yet; that they're still in...

We are commanded not to add to or take away from the words we're given. Where are they supposed to be when they choose to obey with their whole heart, according to the words the Almighty gave us in Deut 30:1-6? It's found in the first two verses of the chapter. Yes, we can. Jeremiah 17:10 I...

Critical context is always missing when these promises are referenced. Deuteronomy 30:1-6 And it shall come to pass, when all these things are come upon thee, the blessing and the curse, which I have set before thee, and thou shalt call them to mind among all the nations, whither the Lord thy...

I submit to you that there has never been a restrainer. The passage was always referring to the subject Paul established: the son of perdition. 1. Pronouns follow the establishment of nouns. 2. There's no reason why Paul wouldn't first identify this "restrainer" (whom many then believe to be...

...and has been corrupting the truth ever since. No modern church is without its leaven.

Revelation 5:1-4 Then I saw in the right hand of him who sat on the throne a scroll with writing on both sides and sealed with seven seals. 2 And I saw a mighty angel proclaiming in a loud voice, “Who is worthy to break the seals and open the scroll?” 3 But no one in heaven or on earth or...

I'm trying to keep everyone's POV straight. By this response, are you arguing that there was a Good Friday crucifixion? As a reminder, I'm one of those who argue that there was a Wednesday crucifixion, followed by three subsequent nights and days of burial (spanning a High Sabbath), then a...

Just like a "guilt by association" ad hominem is a widely recognized form of Ad Hominem (I mean...I just gave an official definition that one can also look up), a one-year ministry of the Messiah was a widely accepted teaching, taught by the early church fathers, for about 400 years, I believe...

Quite sure... Definition from google for your edification: Ad hominem guilt by association is a logical fallacy where a person's argument or character is attacked based on their affiliation with a disreputable person, group, or idea, rather than the merits of the argument itself. While often...

You can continue to lean into the ad hominem fallacy if you want, but it means your entire reply can't be taken seriously. You're disqualifying yourself. Anyhow, the early church fathers believed in a one year ministry and it was a widely held until Eusebius.

You've committed a few fallacies just now, in particular the "guilt by association" ad hominem, appealing to authority fallacy and a strawman: You make it sound like all [strawman] early church fathers believed this. That's far from true. Reading through a list of those who believed this way...

Nuh-uh.. Matthew 12:8 For the Son of man is Lord of the sabbath day. Leviticus 23:9-14 And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying, 10 Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, When ye be come into the land which I give unto you, and shall reap the harvest thereof, then ye shall bring a...

.... isn't that what I did? Provided evidence within is own writing that John 6:4 was added. Wouldnt that be an "edit"? Remove that one verse and it aligns with the other gospels. We were trying to avoid any suppositions, and just taking evidence from the text given. Agreed. Eyewitnesses knew...

...meanwhile... 🤔 ...meanwhile... 🤔 Here it is... The gospel of John is in chronological order, using phrases like "after this" and detailing where the Messiah goes each time and why, because this account is meant to prove He is the promised Messiah. He MUST obey the law. He must. John...

Sure, there is evidence of tampering! The scriptures testify. As required by law, all able-bodied males must travel to Jerusalem to participate in the three major Feasts of the year: Unleavened Bread (called Passover by translators), Feast of Weeks (later called Pentecost), and Feast of...

John 19:31 KJV The Jews therefore, because it was the preparation, that the bodies should not remain upon the cross on the sabbath day, (for that sabbath day was an high day,) besought Pilate that their legs might be broken, and that they might be taken away. John 19:31 BEREAN It was the day...

If the preparation day was a high sabbath, wouldn't they be in violation of the law for "preparing" anything?
