There was a copy of the book of Hebrews, found in the Qumran caves as part of the Dead Sea Scrolls.
 
 
Uh...   not quite...
 
 
 
 
Fragments of every book of the Hebrew Bible (except the Book of Esther) were found in the Qumran caves, the most famous of the Dead Sea Scrolls sites.

It’ll probably be a caucus, one with about 4-5 members showing up.

When you step back and look at the bigger picture, no one can be that ignorant of reality and consequences. The destruction has to be purposeful.

I’m speaking of Biden and Francis.

That is what happens when evil moves into a person.

I hear you. This is an example of different sections of scripture appearing contradictory.

REVELATION 1

“The revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave him to show to his servants the things that must soon take place.

He made it known by sending his angel to his servant John, 2 who bore witness to the word of God and to the testimony of Jesus Christ, even to all that he saw.”

There is more to this.

The Epistle to the Hebrews has some parallels with the Qumran scrolls, particularly in its depiction of a priestly Christ.

The book of Hebrews was written to Jewish Christians who were tempted to return to Judaism, and may have been written in response to Qumran-inspired ideas.

Parallels between Hebrews and Qumran

Priestly Christology
Both the Epistle to the Hebrews and the Qumran scrolls discuss a priestly figure in the context of a Davidic figure.

Divine decree
In both the Epistle to the Hebrews and the Qumran scrolls, a divine decree appoints the priests to their eschatological duty.

Sacrifice of atonement
In both the Epistle to the Hebrews and the Qumran scrolls, the priestly figure offers an eschatological sacrifice of atonement.

Back in (Missouri Synod Lutheran) catechism class, my old pastor told us that in any case where there seemed to be a conflict between what an Apostle or prophet said, and a direct quote of Jesus, always go with Jesus. :-)

While that is very true, the problem arises when someone tells us what an angel told them that Jesus said to them, which Jesus said was His Father speaking to Him.

Then it’s copied and translated many times.

Yes, the Bible is Divinely inspired, but man has had control over the translations and interpretations for thousands of years.

Shilling for donations for the Vatican from the hospital...

https://www.repubblica.it/cronaca/2025/02/26/diretta/papa_francesco_condizioni_salute_news-424028392/

English translation...

“Pope Francis, the conditions. “He is in the armchair. The CT scan results this evening”. And he establishes a commission for donations to the Vatican”

I won’t print the rest of what I am thinking.

Anyone would be wise to ignore every post from T&R.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>.
Actually there ARE people that ignorant. Then there are the people who are not ignorant but nevertheless fully support the destruction that’s being carried out by apparatchiks in both the Church and the State. And the third category of course is composed of people like the vast majority here on Free Republic and in the Trump administration who clearly understand the reality and the dire consequences it portends for our Constitutional Republic.

His “72 hours “ runs out in just the NEXT hour.

Any updates?

Praying for his salvation. Otherwise, he will be very sad.
