Quote:8:17 It is also written in your law, that the testimony of two men is true. Then Jesus said, based upon that principle - because God is certainly not a man, who the two were in his case.8:18 I am one that bear witness of myself, and the Father that sent me beareth witness of me.

Quote:Uri, you have to keep in mind that in the four gospels there is an ongoing battle between Jesus and the Pharisees over the Pharisees' embellishment of the law to the point of making it a heavy burden on the people. So from that standpoint, Jesus would not had said "our" law, or "my law".
Quote:The Father's testimony was in the miracles Jesus did. Has anyone every healed a blind man who was blind from birth?
Quote:Isaiah 42 kjv42:6 I the LORD have called thee in righteousness, and will hold thine hand, and will keep thee, and give thee for a covenant of the people, for a light of the Gentiles;42:7 To open the blind eyes, to bring out the prisoners from the prison, and them that sit in darkness out of the prison house.What covenant is that, Uri?

Quote:Concerning the translation itself of Isaiah 42, the KJV and the LXX agree more with each other, than the text you use. So I am on solid ground there as well.
Quote:Well, you had asked me past tense what had Jesus done regarding world peace, and I said "no". If the question were rephrased to the future I would have said "yes".

Quote:To point out the similitude between Moses and Jesus, Christianity is stepping over to the Lord's side (I am stating my opinion). Like Moses, Jesus did not give us a sermon about Cain (Sophiee). The nt says that Jesus is our mediator in heaven, ascending there, the heavenly mountain of God, the heavenly Zion, not the mountain that Moses climbed. But the stakes are higher, freedom not from physical bondage, as bad as that was for the Children of Israel, but from the bondage of the power of sin for the entire human race.
Quote:So you admit here that neither was yeshu your messiahI don't recognize "yeshu" as being a legitimate name for Jesus. I am just going to say, Uri, that I am a Christian and will remain a Christian forever.The Hebrew Bible clearly points out that one of the missions of our promised Messiah is to bring peace to the world.Well, you had asked me past tense what had Jesus done regarding world peace, and I said "no". If the question were rephrased to the future I would have said "yes"

Quote:Moses wasn't your messiah, but God sent him into Egypt to free the Children of Israel from bondage. Moses was sent for a purpose, to set the captives free, like in Isaiah 42:6, who Christians say refers to Jesus, who, according to the nt, went into hell and set those captives free.

Quote:It seems as if Douggg has too many "conflicts" to figure out. I haven't seen a direct response to either my post or the Fiddler's on 7/9. Again, that would be a direct response, not one that is filled with other irrelevant nt verses.

Quote:It is a matter of available time. I am very busy outside of this forum. I frequent 3 or 4 Christian Bible prophecy discussion boards as well as a muslim site on occasion, plus my own ezboard. Plus, I spend time listening to Christian commentary on the end-times as well as Tamar and Tovia, and the other commentators at the Radio Israel site.
Quote:Please keep in mind that I have the added difficulty of switching gears just for this site because I am not allowed to express myself freely like at those other sites. I have to package my comments within the tight rules regarding what's allowed and what is not. Every word I type, I must tightly scrutinize. You would be amazed at the amount of commentary that I simply delete before even the moderators get to see it. That and the research I must make to respond to "simple" questions takes time. Many times, I know the answers immediately, but to put my response in an acceptable form for this board is another matter.
Quote:I read Gretta's post - the same day she posted it. I will make a response when I get time. What is the date time and number of you post that you say I didn't address?
