Trinity DebateJesus Christ is LordNow, since you refuse to address the Scriptures I posted and apparently are not reading my posts lets get down and dirty with God’s word and not opinions of men. We see this in the OT as well as the NT. Genesis 33:10 10 And Jacob said, "No, please, if now I have found favor in your sight, then take my present from my hand, for I see your face as one sees the face of God, and you have received me favorably. NAS We know that no man can see the face of God and live so who did Jacob wrestle with, an agent of God. By understanding this Jewish Law we can also understand Genesis 18:1 where Abraham spoke with Yehovah. Peter tells us that God appointed Jesus both Prince and Savior. In Hebrews we read where God appointed the man Jesus both His heir and High Priest. Isaiah 5:13 13 Therefore My people go into exile for their lack of knowledge; And their honorable men are famished, And their multitude is parched with thirst. NAS Hosea 4:6 6 My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge. Because you have rejected knowledge,I also will reject you from being My priest. Since you have forgotten the law of your God, I also will forget your children. NAS Now, you can reject God’s word and appeal to Greeks whose lack of knowledge has led many astray to follow false doctrines but I think it behooves all of us to increase our knowledge of our Hebraic roots so we can understand God’s truth. Although the majority of the Jews rejected Jesus as their Savior the fact is Jews were the first evangelists and would have taught as Jews with a full knowledge of the Hebraic roots of our faith. As Paul wrote: Ephesians 2:19-22 19 So then you are no longer strangers and aliens, but you are fellow citizens with the saints, and are of God's household, 20 having been built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Christ Jesus Himself being the corner stone, 21 in whom the whole building, being fitted together is growing into a holy temple in the Lord; 22 in whom you also are being built together into a dwelling of God in the Spirit. NAS You are also ignoring that God hardened the hearts of the Jews so gentiles could be blessed with the gift of His Anointed and Chosen Messiah, the man Jesus Christ. Psalms 69:22-24 22 May their table before them become a snare; And when they are in peace, may it become a trap. 23 May their eyes grow dim so that they cannot see, And make their loins shake continually. 24 Pour out Thine indignation on them, And may Thy burning anger overtake them. NAS Isaiah 29:10 10 For the LORD has poured over you a spirit of deep sleep, He has shut your eyes, the prophets; And He has covered your heads, the seers. NAS Romans 11:25-27 25 For I do not want you, brethren, to be uninformed of this mystery, lest you be wise in your own estimation, that a partial hardening has happened to Israel until the fulness of the Gentiles has come in; 26 and thus all Israel will be saved; just as it is written, "The Deliverer will come from Zion, He will remove ungodliness from Jacob." 27 "And this is My covenant with them, When I take away their sins." NAS God will open the eyes of the Jews when the fullness of the gentiles is complete and His Deliverer rules from Zion (Revelation 19 & 20). Jesus was born of a woman and God appointed Jesus as His agent to bring His salvation to all mankind. When we receive God’s gift of His appointed Savior we also are given God’s Spirit as the earnest of our inheritance. In the OT God’s Spirit is the Holy Spirit of the NT and is not a separate person. |
