Yes, Jesus is God in the flesh, fully human and fully God. Satisfies me, as His subject.

There you go. Everyone should be thoroughly convinced in his own mind. When the Messiah comes, noone will be sitting on the fence.

Truth is what it is no matter what people believe. The NT continues to serve as a witness against the big litmus-test Established doctrines, even as the wall of Scriptural 'proofs' for them is unscalable. But as history demonstrates in humilating ways, an army small in number becomes victorious over one many times in size not through physical strength in numbers, but by way of the superior wisdom, spirit, and strategy of its commander. That type of leader wouldn't waste his resources breaking down impenetrable walls.

Persian conquest

In 539 BC, the Neo-Babylonian Empire fell to Cyrus the Great, king of Persia, with a military engagement known as the Battle of Opis. Babylon's walls were considered impenetrable. The only way into the city was through one of its many gates or through the Euphrates River. Metal grates were installed underwater, allowing the river to flow through the city walls while preventing intrusion. The Persians devised a plan to enter the city via the river. During a Babylonian national feast, Cyrus' troops diverted the Euphrates River upstream, allowing Cyrus' soldiers to enter the city through the lowered water. The Persian army conquered the outlying areas of the city while the majority of Babylonians at the city center were unaware of the breach. The account was elaborated upon by Herodotus[28][29] and is also mentioned in parts of the Hebrew Bible.[30][31]

The Bible is full of patterns. It makes certain outcomes blatantly predictable, even as all the wise men are left scratching their heads and/or quaking in their boots. Daniel, being the observant type, gave the king a simple history lesson.

I think it was Darius, one of Cyrus' generals, who accomplished the entry of Babylon, and governed it as well as the whole Babylonian Empire. But tha's another story. And in the end, the New Testament is written in Greek, which became the common language of Jesus' day, the language of the Gentiles.

But I am not sure what point you are making for the topic of this thread.

Not my theory; it is the word of Yehova.

Your rejection and re-writing of that word is what is outlandish, and downright satanic.

You constantly make completely false statements and attribute them to the word.

Your beliefs are the doctrines of the synagogue of Satan.

The plain text of the Acts completely refutes your false doctrines. The Acts is a primer on learning, and following Torah.

You're going to have to apply your (false) analysis to every solid follower of Christ that I know, and a lot more beside them.

So long!

Your rejection of the plain word continues, no surprise!

No “analysis” was posted nor was any needed. The plain word is what constantly demolishes your every post.
