Well I can't give you anymore- so feel free to use an allegorical interpretation saying it means JOhns baptism of repentance, or water baptism or that salvation happens in two parts, born of the word and born of the spirit. That is your privilege, if I find more I will post it. but as Jewish...

John may have not written it yet- but Paul expanded on what was already spoken and confirmed what John was going to write about an event that was historical. For all we know the Lord could have shown it to Paul in the four years Jesus taught HIm personally in the desert

Why? doesn't say, but that they will is established in SCripture.Zech. 14:16-19

More accurate than the RCC blacked out glasses.

Well equating the everlasting gospel with the new Covenant is irrelavent. It is the everlasting Gospel. It is simple-"Fear God and give HIm glory and worship Him who made heaven and earth, the seas and springs of water!" This is the everlasting good news! and has nothing to do with any covenants.

It matters not whether we feel if there is a need for a future Messianic temple age. There will be one as is clearly and unambiguously spelled out in SCripture.

Yes that is called people having a discussion/debate. But this appears to be his attempt to hold a bible study and I am just curious as to why comment on a commentary of the verses. Stop being so mystical. It is a simple question posed to the OP.

I wish you were looking at it from Nicodemus point of view! Have you bothered to study what Pharasaic Judaism was like at teh time of Christ? Have you read books on the culture of 1st Century Judaism and the common beliefs they held?

So now you are sayhing that gentiles needed to be baptized with JOhns baptism seeing as you allege the message didn't change?

all this and more must come to pass! We are not to fight physically against these things. that is not our command. We are called to collect teh harvest and bring in the lost sheep. do you think we can stop the march to Armegeddon? NO!

hogwash. Jeremiah 1:5 Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations. God knows us boefore we are even formed. I care not what human scientists may say

I applaud you rspirit and heart at wanting to do this. But commenting on a commentary of the book of Mark? what is your purpose?

That is what I have been saying! Jesus was telling Nicodemus that it wasn't enough to just simply being born Jewish to receive and see the kingdom, you also have to be born from above. Nicodemus fully understood the being born of water, He had no clue what Jesus meant by being born from above-...

I don't think you know what repentance means here. And JOhns baptism was for Jews only! Remember Jesus came to die for sins yes, but He also came to offer the prophesied kingdom to Israel. that is why John as the forerunner and the disciples until Matt. 12 went only through Israel preaching...

Well in Galatia they were Paul's number one enemy, but I doubt they were in Corinth. Corinth didn't have a problem with legalism but with licentiousness Well Paul said the commandments written in stone were done away with. If you find that funny- that is on you! And you reaching a false...

S o now you are saying that the water Jesus spoke of in J9ohn 3 was Johns baptism which now you say is a metaphor for repentance? So now we have a double metaphor?

So you believe 69 1/2 weeks of the 70 weeks are fulfilled? It is a game because you make it a game. After 69 weeks to you is 7decades. sorry but close enough is not good enough in prophecy. Show when Jesus made a covenant with Israel for 1 7. show when in the midst of that seven (3 1/2) He...

Water and spirit birth are tow separate thinhgs in John 3. Now prove that drinking of one spirit means being born of allegorical water!

So now defend that being born from above is a two step process that we must be born of the word and the spirit! And if this is what Jesus was allegorizing to, why did he in th every next breath say that which is born of the flesh (natural) is flesh and that which is born of the spirit is...

The content needn't but it does! Paul expands on this thought in Romans. Romans 2:28-29 King James Version 28 For he is not a Jew, which is one outwardly; neither is that circumcision, which is outward in the flesh: 29 But he is a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the...
