NIV Bible error - Lucifer AND Jesus are ONE in the NIV. See Isaiah 14:12.

Funny you would mention the Haight.

In April of 1967 I was in the Haight. It was lovely, full of promise.

In August I was there and I stood with the attitude of a pilgrim at the corner of Haight and Ashbury. A guy came up to me ans asked if I knew where he could get a gun. People had been stealing his drugs and he needed to put a stop to it.

I told him I had just arrived from the east and couldn’t help him. He left and I turned to my friends and said, “The Hippie movement is over. The Christians are right.”

"Your judgmental attitude " --> uh.. uh.. you're making it personal. however, let's put it this way -- you do have a mind and you are studying the Bible. I respect you for that, and the intensity of your believes. But do note that others too have done studies here on this board and they disagree with you.

you may not know it, but yes, Catholics do read the Bible -- especially the ones here on this board read ferociously, there are quite a few who can read in the original Greek and / or Aramaic, and many who pore over the word of God to learn more. So, if you have spent time studying the Word of God, do note that many Catholics have done this too -- and we may disagree with you on points.

THAT is astounding! And they were/are. By God’s grace i wrote an article a while back on Woodstock and one on Moral Decline for conservative encyclopedia and although there is more to analyze, the social/spiritual aspects are revealing.

[Cronos]

evangmlw: Da ya go displaying your ignorance over the biblical use of the word “wine.” Justify your drunkeness via Jesus and the wedding! No, Jesus never drank strong drink and He didn’t create 150 gallons of rotten juice to throw a drunken party. Jesus Christ never created anything tainted, and fermented juice is tainted. What He created was good and pure — not purtrid and corrupt! It’s down right blasphemous to suggest such a thing.

You seem to overlook the fact that it was IMPOSSIBLE to make fruit juice prior to the development of pasteurization in the late 19th century. Without pasteurization fruit juice ferments on its own and this process begins almost immediately (especially with grape juice).

As far as the argument that Jesus would have made juice rather than wine because of purity, that is laughable. Juice must be pasteurized AND refrigerated if it is not drank immediately, the people in the time of Christ didn't have the ability to do either of these things and wouldn't for another eighteen centuries. Why would our Lord make something that would begin to spoil within minutes? Wine on the other hand DOES NOT SPOIL; it will turn to vinegar and may taste horrible, but it doesn't spoil.

temperatures in Jerusalem in the spring are often in the 70s, there would be no way to keep the grape juice from fermenting into wine

So, wine is actually the pure thing while artificially kept grape juice is tainted with chemicals!
whoo hooo evangmlw -- this and other biblical interpretations of yours are wrong.

You’re funny.
Douay Rheims (inerrant Word of God):
“ [12] How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, who didst rise in the morning? how art thou fallen to the earth, that didst wound the nations?”

[Note in text - [12] O Lucifer: O day star. All this, according to the letter, is spoken of the king of Babylon. It may also be applied, in a spiritual sense, to Lucifer the prince of devils, who was created a bright angel, but fell by pride and rebellion against God.]

bibletruth’s exegesis is somewhat poor. No offense meant.

[aruanan]

We conclude that the NIV means that Lucifer AND Jesus are ONE in the NIV!

Here is what you're doing:

All A is B
All C is B
Therefore, All A is C.

You're engaging in the fallacy of the undistributed middle.

Here is a valid syllogism:

All A is B
All B is C
Therefore, all A is C.

Let's see how it works out in real life:

All first class mail is delivered by U.S. Post Office mail carriers
All U.S. Post Office mail carriers are employees of the Federal Government.
Therefore, all first class mail is delivered by employees of the Federal Government.

What you are doing above is this:

Your doctor is a U.S. citizen
I am a U.S. citizen
Therefore, I am your doctor.

Or, as you say,

Lucifer is described by the NIV as the morning star.
Jesus is described by the NIV as the morning star.
Therefore, the NIV says Lucifer is Jesus.

Put down that faulty syllogism and step slowly away from it. Your exegesis will immediately become less defective.

[aruanan]

Isaiah 14:12 How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations!

In the NIV, Lucifer is the "morning star". Now in the NIV, the KJV word "Lucifer" is identified as the "morning star". See for yourself:

Isaiah 14:12 How you have fallen from heaven, O morning star, son of the dawn! You have been cast down to the earth, you who once laid low the nations!

By the way, the word translated from Hebrew into Greek as "Lucifer" means "morning star" or "day star." It's like complaining that someone is referred to as a bearer of Christ when everyone really knows his name is Christopher.

ROFLOL I will bet that the same people that condemn you for drawing this analogy are the same one that will be able to demonstrate beyond the shadow of a doubt that the “Catholic Mary” is the pagan “Queen of Heaven.”

Why is that a stretch? Not only is it clear, it looks very intentional.
