OKAY, GAME OVER! The number one reason the New Testament amounts to bunk

by Terry in

for me, the dead giveaway is this.

jesus wrote nothing.. stop and think about that.. if jesus were the authentic messiah, his ministry would not simply be local.. his instructions, his mission, the details of his teachings would be too precious to risk leaving it in the hands of "men unlettered (illiterate) and ordinary (blue-collar yokels).".

jesus, were he the one and only hope of mankind, would be absolutely certain to write down with great simplicity and specificity the exact owner's manual necessary to rescue mankind.. never happened!.

dear megaboy...

you said, "The problem with the Messiah was that to most people back then, you really would have assumed him to be a normal person, and would have to be aware of the prophecies..."

those who recognized Jesus were part of the remnant of God's people who hadn't bent their knee to other baal(s). There never was an OT expectation that everyone who did hear or see Him would recognize Him even if they DID know the prophesy. Yet, someone like Nathanael (john 1:45-49) did.

I've answered all of your objections even providing circumstantial evidence to back up my reasoning (whereas you've provided NONE for your claims).

Seriously...you may go away now.

I said, God will, at some point, decide to harded the heart of THOSE who continually harden their hearts. THOSE will continue to blaspheme God in the lake of fire.

I did NOT say that Terry's heart has been hardened by God and he is going to hell.

cofty says...

"Moses wrote that god says..... lots of stuff. He quotes god word for word throughout the pentateuch"...

actually, if you read the text it sounds like someone is quoting moses(speaking WITH the authority of God)...the phrase used is, "and the LORD spoke to moses..." not..."and the LORD spoke to 'me'"...

just sayin'

I didn't say the OT wasn't authentic and moses, speaking WITH the authority of God, extends to the jews TO THIS DAY. Your reading comprehension sucks.

from the very beginning moses was positioned to speak to the people WITH the authority of God...not AS the authority of God.

It is my understanding that all the israelite kings and priests were positioned to speak/act WITH the authority of God not AS the authority of God. (it is also my understanding that the only ones who were given the position to speak AS the authority of God were the judges in that they held the life or death of a man in their hands)

At the time of Jesus the pharisees were speaking WITH the authority of God and AS the authority of God...Jesus berated them publicly in His capacity as king, priest and judge.

Hebrews 11:24-29 is speaking exclusively about the faith of moses there is NO critique of the law or morality of the hebrews.

The hebrews/israel AND the entirety of the law were set forth (we are told) as an example of the depravity of the nature of fallen man in CONTRAST to the Holy God.

dear Terry...

The gospel of john was a personal account of Jesus...the revelation to john is was he was told to write as he was seeing it in a vision. The revelation is a book that portrays the final battle between good and evil. The harshness expressed in it is to be expected for such an epic battle.

We are faced with the vision of two "camps": God's and satans. Until satan and his angels are cast to earth they are still heavenly principalities.(Ephesians 6:12) Once they are cast to the earth there is even more woe to the earth and to the sea. What is described as vindictive is Jesus ridding the earth of those who are in opposition to His righteous reign. Jesus literally supports PEOPLE (rev 6:10) who have been slaughtered by those who are in opposition to His righteous reign. The tribulation is satanic/demonic it is initiated against "good". The wrath of God is initiated against "evil".

As far as the dating of the book of revelation, in the following link mark hitchcock presents external evidence for an AD 95 date based on EARLY written testimony refering to the time and event of the revelation when john was on the island of patmos. that testimony refers to john being on the island during the reign of emperor domician. @ 24-26 minute mark.
