    A stick in the mud

    I do. I’m a primitive Christian, not a Nicene Christian. I changed my registration because some of the Nicene Christians objected strenuously to me being allowed to become a member. I did it for them and it has worked out well for them and for me.

    Jesus is the Son of his God

    http://biblehub.com/greek/846.htm All English translations of the prologue in John’s Gospel published prior to 1611* (and many English translations since 1611) render autos “it,” not “he”. The Greek Lexicon validates the use and the Bibles published by trinitarians prior to 1611 is the...

    Jesus submitted to his God

    That makes three days in a row. You’re doing well. Matthew 4 has 25 verses. We should be able to read it in our daily ten today. P.S. Down and out people were known to say during the Great Depression: “Brother, can you spare a dime?” I was reminded of that yesterday and it prompted a similar...

    A stick in the mud

    I appreciate that Christianity Board has “Other Faith” forums where a Jewish monotheist who believes Jesus of Nazareth is the Messiah, Son of the living God is allowed to post. There are borders I’m not allowed to cross - forums designated “Christians Only” - but I’ve lived comfortably with that...

    A stick in the mud

    I was once permanently banned from an online forum after making only one post. The post was in an “Introduce Yourself” section on that forum. I reckon that it must have happened around 20 years ago. I said hello, my name is, and I’m a Jewish monotheist, looking forward to speaking with you...

    Jesus is the Son of his God

    Why did you like my post #529? I said nothing of my own in the post. I quoted Psalm 110:1 using the Amplified Bible. (The one whom you urged me to “kiss and make up” with has said repeatedly that it is false.) *** Just as an aside, a word to all of my readers. The Shema, the creed of Judaism...

    Did Jews in the first century read from scrolls written in Hebrew?

    This is a spinoff from another thread where the conversation drifted off topic and onto the subject of what language(s) Jesus and the apostles read, what language(s) they spoke, and what language(s) they taught and preached in. I’d like to begin that discussion in this thread by asking: Did...

    Jesus is the Son of his God

    Returning to the OP. How would “you“ - my readers in general - explain to a Muslim or a Jew that Jesus is the Son of his God?

    Jesus is the Son of his God

    That’s fine. And you also.

    Jesus is the Son of his God

    Make it plain to me then that you don’t believe that Jesus and the apostles taught in Greek. Latin isn’t a biblical language. Hebrew and Greek are.

    Jesus is the Son of his God

    I’m not. You perception of me is wrong but, even if it was right, that’s no excuse for the way you’re acting. I’m calm and not anxious. There are many more than that who are registered members and there are many more than that who aren’t members who read these forums. I don’t view them as...

    Jesus is the Son of his God

    You told me just moments ago that he taught in Greek. Christian scholars have to know the biblical languages. They don’t learn it as an amusement.

    Jesus is the Son of his God

    No. Why do you behave in that manner? It matters what people believe and say on “just forums”.
  18. Matthias

    Jesus is the Son of his God

    He also spoke Greek. Christianity is dependent on Hebrew. That is why scholars are taught the biblical languages - Hebrew and Greek.

    Jesus is the Son of his God

    I don’t agree with that. The first Christians were Jews. The Dead Sea scrolls are written in Hebrew, not Greek. They weren’t produced by the sect of Judaism which Jesus founded but the earliest Christians came into contact with the Essenes. The quotations of the OT contained in the Dead Sea...
