    HERESY?

    This is one of the things I am trying to understand...... the NT is written in Greek of which the Septuagint was transcribed from...... I am not sure if this is what you are meaning to say. Let me take some shots in the dark and see if I can hit something. The Hebrew language is Hebrew. The...

    HERESY?

    I was trying to follow this conversation but it is not easy. So the Septuagint only translated the Old Testament. So are we saying that they got the word bread wrong in the Old Testament? This would be a new one on me? And would it have any significance to the Greek language or Greek scriptures...

    HERESY?

    Scarecrow is fine. I did a thread on "Can nice people go to hell?" What is the difference between the Antichrist and a religion that is anti-Christ? LOL Pretty much by definition and intent the Jehovah's Witnesses are the enemy of Christianity and Christ. But they can be nice. My auntie (a JW)...

    Why do Catholics adore, worship and deify Mary so much?

    Well question also is, why are the Protestants so fixated on Miriam? The people that have issues with Miriam are usually fundamentalists....Bible only? Well not really because they like to reach over the fence for things they like. And then complain and ridicule what they do not like or...

    HERESY?

    The Ecumenical Councils debated the nature/substance of Christ in relation to God the Father. It was a fool's folly. There is no way they could know, no way we can know because we cannot comprehend it. I have essays on this, mine and others. To say that God the Father, God the Son, and God the...

    HERESY?

    This is a long topic. Color me curious. What is your concern with leaven? Have I missed it?

    HERESY?

    Correct, and the story of Origen is interesting as well as William Tyndale. LOL The Septuagint was a good effort. It had some inaccuracies that Origen was trying to tackle and it sparked off some debates that continue to this day. It is hard to believe that we know more about the Hebrew language...

    HERESY?

    Well it is easy to get the timeline mixed up regarding the Septuagint and the story behind it. Around 285 BC Ptolemy II issued commands for a portion of the Hebrew Bible (Pentateuch) to be translated to Greek. His interest in the Hebrew Bible was to include it in the Great Library of...

    HERESY?

    You are fighting a losing battle. On Thursday, at the Passover meal for Christ they used leavened bread....look up the Greek word used for bread....Leavened...daily bread. Then the normal Passover meal that would occur on Friday was a Seder meal and they used unleavened bread.

    HERESY?

    Well you are right....the full description is in Grailhunter's Corner. Post 1249 Christ was our sacrificial lamb....the Lamb of God. He is on the cross that Friday about the time they are slaughtering and cooking the lamps for the Passover meal. The meal was to be eaten and completed before dusk...

    HERESY?

    I am walking this backwards Because the Jews calculate Passover on the Lunar cycle....we know what date it is. Saturday was the double holiday....Passover and the Sabbath. Passover started at dusk on Friday with the rise of the full moon...continued through Passover day Saturday. Friday Christ...

    The Trinity

    You are wrong and @GodsGrace is correct here. No doubt that Yeshua is a God....a full-fledged God......Yahweh's only begotten Son. And no matter of twisting the scriptures will prove otherwise. Another false belief.....tick tock tick tock

    The Trinity

    It goes to show the power of your idolatry. Which do you choose: A. Bring people to Jesus, even if they don't believe he is God. B. Prevent people from coming to Jesus as you make the trinity an obstacle. @Wrangler..... @GodsGrace GodsGrace is telling you what she believes. Godly Lady. She...

    The Trinity

    Only Begotten Oh Boy! A word study! The Greek word μονογενής is an adjective compounded of μονος “only” and γενος meaning “kin, offspring, family, or in relation to other topics not discussing offspring or family "kind, race, or type." Which this can be used in the Greek languages but does not...

    [Help]Matthew 1:23[just need more opinion]

    The thing is if you research it, you will find more than one explaination of why it happened. And there are some that blame the Septuagint but that is not why the error occurred. Again "Ἰησοῦς" is not a name. It is a description, that is why you can look all through the Greco-Roman history and...

    [Help]Matthew 1:23[just need more opinion]

    No one knows where the name or word Jesus came from. It has no connection to the Greek and "Iesous" has no phonic connection to the word Jesus. As you might suspect the Greek being a Pagan Language did not have a word that meant Yahweh Saves! Or anything about God and Salvation.... "Iesous" is...

    [Help]Matthew 1:23[just need more opinion]

    The conundrum of names...LOL Other than the first chapter of Matthew No one calls Christ Emmanuel in the NT. Emmanuel ... Immanuel.... It is a reference to Isaiah 7:14 and that is a long topic. Miriam did not name her Son Jesus......No one knows where that name came from....His name is Yeshua...

    Did Jesus really mean that Muslims or Hindus would go to hell?

    Because someone is burning in hell....it does not mean that there is any light. We see fire as giving off light. But the physics of it is that not all flames of heat give off light. And the absence of God would be darkness. And it is what Christ describes, both fire and darkness.

    Do angels have wings ? Or something we painted on them ?

    Wings....humor....metaphor? Zechariah 5:5-10 Then the angel who was speaking to me came forward and said to me, “Look up and see what is appearing.” I asked, “What is it?” He replied, “It is a basket.” And he added, “This is the iniquity of the people throughout the land.” Then the cover of...
