Bs"d Congratulations! You are not an idol worshiper! Being wrong about the messiah is not a big deal, I don't think you get whip lashes for it, but idolatry is a grave sin, which carries upon it the death penalty, and also horrible curses. But you realize that more than 99% of the...

Bs"d Wasn't he born in a stable? Not very king-like. And he never was a real king, never ruled over a kingdom. Well, we'll have to see about that. You can believe that, but if it really is going to happen that is up in the air. Yes, that is what all the messianic prophecies say. And...

Bs"d And who is the God that JC believed in? What is His name?

Bs"d But he was not the Jewish people. The messianic prophecies say that he is going to be a king, or maybe nowadays a president, but anyhow a leader of the Jewish people. And that is also never fulfilled by your messiah.

Bs"d Not according to this messianic prophecy: Jeremiah 23:5-6; "Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will raise unto David a righteous Branch, and a King shall reign and prosper, and shall execute judgment and justice in the earth. IN HIS DAYS JUDAH SHALL JUDAH SHALL BE SAVED, AND...

Bs"d That is one of the messianic prophecies which has NOT been fulfilled: Isaiah 11; "And there shall come forth a rod out of the stem of Jesse, and a Branch shall grow out of his roots: And the spirit of the LORD shall rest upon him, the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of...

Bs"d Who is the suffering servant in Isaiah 53? Christians say it is the messiah. The Jews say it is the Jewish people. I think that it is obvious that the Jews are right also on this one. What arguments can Christians bring that the suffering servant is the messiah?

Bs"d I cannot find what you mean. Can you post that trinitarian commentary here? So you don't believe that JC was really God, and you don't believe in the trinity?

Bs"d Doing my best to be one.

Bs"d The above is an abbreviation of the Aramaic expression "Ba siata desmaya", and that means: "With the help of Heaven". https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Besiyata_Dishmaya

Bs"d So he claimed that John the Baptist was Elijah the prophet. But that doesn't change the fact that JC did not fulfill the messianic prophecies. And if somebody claims to be the messiah, but doesn't fulfill the messianic prophecies, then we know he was not the messiah.

Bs"d The word "almah" is not used for Rebeccah. But in this verse: "And the damsel [was] very fair to look upon, a virgin, neither had any man known her:" Gen 24:16 the word "virgin" is "betulah", which is the normal word for virgin, and that word is not used in Isaiah. You can check...

Bs"d I use only Christian Bible translations, so don't tell me that my translations are according to the flesh. It isn't what Jews want, it is about what the messianic prophecies says that the messiah must do. JC did not fulfill the messianic prophecies, therefore he was not the messiah...

Bs"d Yes. Why not?

Daniel 9 is really simple, as long as you don't try to shoehorn your own theology into it. Here it is explained what is going on in Daniel 9: Daniel 9

Bs"d Men are just instruments in the hand of God. God is the real Savior: My Savior is Y-H-W-H: Isaiah 43: 3: "For I am Y-H-W-H thy God, the Holy one of Israel, thy saviour." Isaiah 43:10-11: "Before Me there was no God formed, neither shall there be after me, even I, I am Y-H-W-H, and...

Bs"d No, prophecy is closed: "Seventy weeks of years are decreed concerning your people and your holy city, to finish the transgression, to put an end to sin, and to atone for iniquity, to bring in everlasting righteousness, to seal both vision and prophet, and to anoint a most holy place."...

Bs"d In chapter 3 here: Notestament are some messianic prophecies which are not fulfilled.

Bs"d NOWHERE in Isaiah, NOWHERE in the whole Hebrew Bible is the messiah ever referred to as "the servant of God". Isaiah 41:8: “But thou , Israel art my servant, Jacob whom I have chosen, the seed of Abraham my friend. Thou who I have taken from the ends of the earth, and called thou from...

Bs"d No. The messianic prophecies are all unfulfilled.
