    The Mystery Revealed

    Yes--the Church would have been a mystery (that is, something unknown) to ancient Israel.

    Is Israel really biblical Israel or is it a devil's creation?

    I went to look at the BBC video clip which you posted and I agree that he is spreading hatred for homosexuals. He is in violation of the word of God in doing that. The vast majority of homosexuals are unbelievers and the Bible tells me (in 2 Corinthians chapter 5) that we have no authority to...

    Is Israel really biblical Israel or is it a devil's creation?

    I agree that antisemitism is ugly and hateful but, at least in this video, I did not see any evidence of hate. Those who pay more attention to the Talmud than they do the Tanakh have infected Judaism. A number of rabbis have expressed their concern over the influence of Kabbalah and the Talmud...

    Is Israel really biblical Israel or is it a devil's creation?

    I think a warning is appropriate--there was a recently popular "Christian" book called, The Circle Maker. It's central theme is from a story told in the Talmud! The "pastor" who wrote the book was open about the source for his book. What possible justification could there be for a "Christian"...

    Is Israel really biblical Israel or is it a devil's creation?

    I think that's a good point, SG. Some fall more on the side of truth; others fall on the side of love. But we need to have both in equal measure. That balance is somewhat difficult to achieve. Jesus did it perfectly. He rebuked those who needed rebuking--the arrogant and prideful who...

    Is Israel really biblical Israel or is it a devil's creation?

    But, if it is blended with subtle error, how is that any different than Satan at the temptation of Jesus?

    Is Israel really biblical Israel or is it a devil's creation?

    Yes. But that answer needs a bit of qualifying.

    Is Israel really biblical Israel or is it a devil's creation?

    Not sure that this qualifies as overturned prophecy either since the prophesied event hasn't happened yet. In any case, we are told that those who are chosen were chosen before the foundation of the world.

    Is Israel really biblical Israel or is it a devil's creation?

    I believe this is an account written by the prophet, Jonah himself. And I also believe that it was much more about Jonah than it was Nineveh. There are two key points that are made about God. Jonah says near the end of the account (starting at Chapter 4:1--NLT): "This change of plans greatly...

    Is Israel really biblical Israel or is it a devil's creation?

    Jesus said, "My Kingdom is not of this world..." His Kingdom is a spiritual Kingdom at present. He was sent to the lost sheep of Israel to bring them back into right relationship with the Father, through the "Suffering Servant"--"Lamb of God" Messiah (Isaiah 53). But they would not come to...

    Is Israel really biblical Israel or is it a devil's creation?

    Wasn't it indeed taken from them? But, I and many others believe that it was temporary--while the Lord gathered a people for Himself from among the Gentiles. That appears to be what Paul is telling us in Romans 11. The Lord wished to make the Jews jealous of the Gentiles. (Romans 11:11)...

    Is Israel really biblical Israel or is it a devil's creation?

    In the "Dry Bones" prophecy of Ezekiel 37, it is clear that Israel will be reestablished in unbelief. But, God will not leave them in unbelief. Unbelieving Judah (along with tiny remnants of the other tribes) is occupying the Land right now but, in the future, when God brings them through a...

    The Torah Has Not Been Abolished

    I promised myself that if you pointed to Isaiah 55:8-9 one more time, as the answer to nearly every question, that I would never take part in a discussion with you again. In any case, it is NOT a problem for me--it is for the Judaizer who calls himself "cgneustar." As for your citing of John...

    The Torah Has Not Been Abolished

    Then, why did Paul tell the women to wear head coverings? Surely the Jewish women who were teaching them would have been wearing head coverings. (hint: think Priscilla). There are many, many Gentile believers who do NOT discard the teachings of the Tanakh. Yet, there are many "rules" in the...

    Rev. 18:4 Come Out Of Her Lest You Share In Her Plagues ...

    It is because the global elites want an utterly controlled world population.

    Failed Prophecies

    Note: I had a hard time addressing your opening statements because the quote mechanism was messed up in your post. If you will fix it, I will address it. There are three words that you need to consider: nephesh, neshamah, and ruach. The Hebraic concept of the "Ruach ha Kodesh" is what you...

    Poll: Best age for first tattoo?

    Jesus was and is the sinless Son of God. He would not have fallen. Not so the Church which must zealously guard "her" purity (see 1 Corinthians 10:12). We are schooled many times on that subject in the New Testament. Not only are we to guard the purity of the gospel but we are also to guard...

    The Torah Has Not Been Abolished

    No. If that was the case, Paul would have ordered Christian men to wear tzitzit (as well as the women). (Numbers 15:37-41) I do NOT "discard the Torah". I notice that you sidestepped the point I raised about Christians generally exceeding the Ten Commandments. Let me ask you one question...

    The Torah Has Not Been Abolished

    Did you really think that I did not know that? But, in any case, I am called to obey the Living Torah--Yeshua and He speaks to His own through His Spirit within them. I quoted the Holy Spirit in Acts 15:28-29 to you. You are the one who is in error. I agree. Yes, I understand this but...
