Read the reaction to the words from Jesus. The false gospel so permeates the modern religious mindset that people think it as nothing to contradict Jesus both openly and defiantly. Willful sins are not covered unless one repents.
I find that the bible is mostly ignored in favour of whatever feeds an already accepted ideology come hell or high water.
People have to actually watch the video to discuss the topic but no one wants to do that. It's too bad because it actually has some good stuff.
I actually agree that the Gospel is in the Torah, and I did discuss it a little, I think (unless that was another, similar, thread), but I still haven't watched the intro video presentation, because I wasn't interacting with it directly, but was interacting with another user who was denying the notion that the Gospel was in the Torah. I don't need any persuasion, though (that the Gospel is in the Torah), so I don't think it was wrong to interact with that other user without having first availed myself of the video presentation.
No, that is only how He was numbered with the transgressors by men, even though innocent. He died the death of a condemned criminal.
Jesus consented to going through with falling into the hands of evil men. He knew what was in men. The forces of evil were at work. And Jesus didn't resist it. But make no mistake, the evil didn't come from God...but rather the god of this world...as the bible says...had they known what they were doing they would not have crucified the Lord of Glory.
Isa 53:1 Who has believed what he has heard from us?
And to whom has the arm of the LORD been revealed?
Isa 53:2 For he grew up before him like a young plant,
and like a root out of dry ground; he had no form or
maIsaty that we should look at him, and no beauty that
we should desire him.
Isa 53:3 He was despised and rejected by men; a man of
sorrows, and acquainted with grief; and as one from
whom men hide their faces he was despised, and we
esteemed him not.
Isa 53:4 Surely he has borne our griefs and carried our
sorrows; yet we esteemed him stricken, smitten by God,
and afflicted.
Isa 53:5 But he was pierced for our transgressions;
he was crushed for our iniquities; upon him was the
chastisement that brought us peace, and with his
wounds we are healed.
Isa 53:6 All we like sheep have gone astray; we have
turned—every one—to his own way; and the LORD
has laid on him the iniquity of us all.
Isa 53:7 He was oppressed, and he was afflicted, yet
he opened not his mouth; like a lamb that is led to
the slaughter, and like a sheep that before its
shearers is silent, so he opened not his mouth.
Isa 53:8 By oppression and judgment he was taken
away; and as for his generation, who considered
that he was cut off out of the land of the living,
stricken for the transgression of my people?
Isa 53:9 And they made his grave with the wicked and
with a rich man in his death, although he had done no
violence, and there was no deceit in his mouth.
Isa 53:10 Yet it was the will of the LORD to crush
him; he has put him to grief; when his soul makes an
offering for guilt, he shall see his offspring; he
shall prolong his days; the will of the LORD shall
prosper in his hand.
Isa 53:11 Out of the anguish of his soul he shall see
and be satisfied; by his knowledge shall the righteous
one, my servant, make many to be accounted righteous,
and he shall bear their iniquities.
Isa 53:12 Therefore I will divide him a portion with
the many, and he shall divide the spoil with the
strong, because he poured out his soul to death and was
numbered with the transgressors; yet he bore the sin
of many, and makes intercession for the transgressors.Jesus IS the Lord spoken of in IS 53. The Lord supports the Lord...The Lord sends the Lord. But these work together.
ESV 2011 | Septuagint / LXX
Isa 53:10 Yet it was the will of the LORD to crush | 10 The Lord also is pleased to purge him from his
him; he has put him to grief; when his soul makes an | stroke. If ye can give an offering for sin, your
offering for guilt, he shall see his offspring; he | soul shall see a long-lived seed:
shall prolong his days; the will of the LORD shall |
prosper in his hand. |God creates both good and evil. However, it is self-evident that man and devil did the deed........but why are you ignoring the will and sovereignty of God in the sacrifice that HE chose because it was necessary to fulfill the Law that HE instituted and to "put an end to sin"?
Why does God allow evil in the world? Why does He say not to resist evil?
I agree with this.
