You see that the losing presidental candidates magazine of choice denied a Bible ad. Does this mean that they consider themselves part of the government.

Isaiah 9:6 For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.

That don't mean anything to them, the folks they follow have spun that nine ways to heaven. Just watch you'll soon find out just how stupid you really are.

Y'know, I don't think I'm going to discuss scripture anymore. Why bother? Never mind that we Jews might have reasons for believing as we do, that we might have reasons for disagreeing with Christian interpretations of our own scripture. It's all just "spin". My choice seems to be A) to be regarded as spiritually blind, or B) to be regarded as perfidious.

So what length of leases have you signed with your tenants? Did you do any sort of credit check on them first?

Oh, by the way, the DSS fragment of Psalm 22:17 has been dated as late as the second century C.E. by scholars and researchers including Geza Vermes, the primary translator of the DSS.

Can you supply a link? Everything I've read of his indicates that the entire collection dates from 200BC to 70AD. Did this one fragment somehow slip in a few decades later?

Second... it actually begs the question if you see HOW they date it to that period. He's actually taking your assumption and working backwards.

Fine. I won't explain the original context of a "DUAL" prophecy anymore. You'll think its spin.

No, sorry. I only said it was possible to cede that it doesn't technically say "virgin" without affecting the reality of Jesus' birth.

Interesting. There is no one who disputes the historical reality of the birth of Jesus.

By "reality" I meant that He was born of a Virgin.

You are willing to cede it was not foretold in the Old Testament?

I said what I said. "it [is] possible to cede that it doesn't technically say "virgin" without affecting the reality of Jesus' [virgin] birth."

You know I've never been a fan of dismissing other's arguments and beliefs as "spin." I get it continually from some elements here. And, no, it doesn't feel good.

My choice seems to be A) to be regarded as spiritually blind, or B) to be regarded as perfidious.

Or C) part of God's plan in a way we don't fully understand. That's what the Ratzinger document is saying about the Jews waiting for the Messiah.

Ok I gotta hear this.

I just looked up Isaiah 9:6. God does calls the Son, God and Father.

Please allow me to edit my response to Dave (#798). I didn't make it clear that I was speaking specifically of the virgin birth.

"Interesting. There is no one who disputes the historical reality of the birth of Jesus. You are willing to cede it the virgin birth was not foretold in the Old Testament?"

No. They have alot right, salvation, but they have enough wrong too that I do not want to be considered part of them.

We stopped going to church and are more or less a home church.

Cool. Refreshing to see others who aren't opposed to change when the heart dictates.
