Example: If one is going to choose to understand the following in a metaphorical way then, if indeed there is a metaphorical way already expounded in the scripture, the scripture understanding is the correct metaphorical understanding. This is even more emphatically true if the metaphorical...

There was once a man who ended up being diagnosed with a cancerous tumor. His doctor told him he was lucky because they had caught it early, and explained to him that they needed to go in and remove it as soon as possible. However, the man was terrorized by the thought and exceeding fearful of...

I simply asked you a simple question which you avoided like the plague. Making a bunch of false accusations isn't going change anything: you are just revealing who you are and what is in you.

You missed the teaching where he emphatically states that the Torah is spiritual, (Rom 7:14a). Billions of people do not believe him even unto this day: and he received that too, from the Master.

I'll take that as you pleading the fifth, (Amendment), and choosing not to answer.

I fully understand that there is so much more to Paul's teachings that even the few verses you posted are just a drop in the bucket when it comes to the knowledge and wisdom of Paul, (in Meshiah). My focus is really on the three times he says "my Gospel", which have been quoted above, and the...

Nothing to say about the topic and the evidence from the Gospel of Luke? Luke says "the Eleven" were there, and yes the Greek contains the article, "the Eleven", at the evening appearance of the Master, (Luke 24:33), which episode is the same as the one recorded in the Gospel of John, where it...

PS: for those who may be interested, the evidence for much of what is in this thread is compounded by the fact that, according to Paul himself, the Gospel of Luke is his Gospel, which has now been posted in the following new thread. https://www.christianityboard.com/threads/pauls-gospel.71154/

Awe, I was hoping for a fresh restart with you: but you did not answer in such a manner that would allow it. Howbeit, back to the topic, please do your best to stay on-topic from here on.

That last one means to preach or herald the name of the LORD. The first usage is spoken of Enosh, the first preacher of righteousness, (making Noah the eighth preacher of righteousness, 2Pet 2:5). Genesis 4:26 LSV (Literal Standard Version) 26 And to Seth, to him also a son has been born, and...

No, imho, that is not the Gospel of Paul: read the whole chapter instead of extracting one verse and adding your paradigm into it. You've taken it out of its context: the Logos-understanding is by the context and your statement does not agree with the context.

In 1Cor 11:23 Paul says, "For I received of the Master that which I also delivered unto you", meaning that he delivered to them what he himself had received, and then he quotes directly word for word verbatim from the Gospel account which we know as Luke. 1 Corinthians 11:23-25 ASV 23 For I...

Perhaps that's why you shouldn't be harassing and smearing people to begin with: now you try to have a civil conversation, and I don't even trust you anymore or believe much of what you say. So as far as I was concerned your previous comments were directed at me just as that was the norm...

Surely you can count up to twelve, but I suppose I already understand why you would say what you do: however this thread is not about your opinions of me or anyone else, so please keep them to yourself and do your best to stay on topic. You asked me what I see and I told you, and I will add to...

Yes, of course I have seen (and studied) it. The fact that twelve were always intended does not change the fact that at this point Luke, (and probably Paul too), count "the Eleven" in that particular evening. They are telling us something incredibly important: Thomas was indeed there at that...

Again just a variation of the other rehashed commentaries linked above. But as far as Matthias already having been chosen to replace the betrayer, the context of Luke pretty much forbids such reasoning or explanation: it is the evening of the third day, the day of the resurrection. The two...

That's merely the same excuse the other commentaries use which were linked to above.

Well, to put it a little more bluntly, the Luke passage refutes the John passage: both cannot be true because they are the same episode or event, and Luke surely says that "the Eleven" were there, which means that Thomas was surely there according to Luke because the only one missing was the...

By the end of this post the thread topic should be evident. The Twelve: Matthew 10:2-4 LSV 2 And of the twelve apostles the names are these: first, Simon, who is called Peter, and his brother Andrew; James of Zebedee, and his brother John; 3 Philip, and Bartholomew; Thomas, and Matthew the tax...

Sorry, you do not make the rules for what I believe, and I've already shown you what I believe Jude 9 concerns in what I already posted. It appears you are not able to fully comprehend what was stated and shown because you are now asking questions about it which have already been answered in the...
