“Who has believed what he has heard from us?
And to whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed?
For he grew up before him like a young plant,
and like a root out of dry ground;
he had no form or majesty that we should look at him,
and no beauty that we should desire him.
He was...
Anyone can verify this for themselves.
1. Assuming that God's word is true when it states in multiple places that 1000 literal years is equivalent to a Day according to God, then this provides some tangible data points.
2. Two additional data points provide some boundaries. The 1000 year...
Have you ever wondered about the actual date for the crucifixion of Jesus Christ? There are many opinions on when it was. Here I present a variety of evidences which aren't commonly recognized. There are also some very highly significant patterns in history and with eclipses that point to...

People have so many thoughts about Biblical prophecy through the centuries. It's very confusing. But there can be only one correct interpretation. As we get ever closer to the fulfillment of all things, prophetic things must become obvious. The time is now very near. And the proper...
In New Testament times, the apostles Peter and John were instrumental of God in the healing of a man lame from birth. And the people were all filled with wonder and amazement at what had happened to the man who was lame and now was healed. So, Peter seized this opportunity to talk with the crowd...
Could some of the Magi who came looking for Christ at His birth; have been from China?
(I'll get to this question in a minute - first though):
I came across a blog post the other day that contained a very interesting piece of historical information. (Which I will link the blog post at the end...
1 And the whole multitude of them arose, and led him unto Pilate. 2 And they began to accuse him, saying, We found this fellow perverting the nation, and forbidding to give tribute to Caesar, saying that he himself is Christ a King. What was it about Jesus that caused this vehement reaction in...
"For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life." --John 3:16
Something mentioned in all of Christianity, and especially emphasized by the more traditional branches of Christianity, is the Crucifixion. There have...
"God created through love and for love. God did not create anything except love itself, and the means to love. He created love in all its forms. He created beings capable of love from all possible distances. Because no other could do it, he himself went to the greatest possible distance, the...
It's getting near Easter! We celebrate the cross and resurrection because it was the apex of human history. We agree that the earth-shattering sacrifice on Calvary was the fulfillment of that which was written.
Why is it then that there isn't unanimous agreement about the date of the...
Hi, many times I have heard well meaning Christians say something akin to I am (or my sin is) responsible for driving the nails into Christ, hanging Him on the cross, His crucifixion, or something like that.
I'm looking for the specific verse(s) that say that. Not imply, but say it. Not looking...
Now there was a man in Jerusalem, whose name was Simeon, and this man was righteous and devout, waiting for the consolation of Israel, and the Holy Spirit was upon him. And it had been revealed to him by the Holy Spirit that he would not see death before he had seen the Lord's Christ. And he...
Hi,
I'm a theology student in England- about to start a study on the appearance of the crucifixion in dreams at university. I want to see if there is guilt left over from the crucifixion which re-emerges in dream form. Possibly sent by God or possibly from the left over guilt of such an...
According to the OSB, the Synoptic Gospels say Christ's crucifixion happened on Passover, and during Preparation on the Gospel of John.
Why is there a contradiction?
Near the end of Jesus' ministry and a few days before the Passover, Jesus once again prophesied of his death. He told his disciples that soon he would be handed over to be crucified. Satan was now heavily influencing the religious leaders, those who wanted to kill Jesus, so the chief priests and...
1 Corinthians 15:20-22 ESV
But in fact Christ has been raised from the dead, the firstfruits of those who have fallen asleep. For as by a man came death, by a man has come also the resurrection of the dead. For as in Adam all die, so also in Christ shall all be made alive.
God’s Divine Plan...
The Christian doctrine of the crucifixion isn't supported by the Bible's own proof text.
Luke 24
44 And he said unto them, These are the words which I spake unto you, while I was yet with you, that all things must be fulfilled, which were written in the law of Moses, and in the prophets, and in...
It is now the evening of the 18th where I am. As such, it is Yom Kippur.
I've always found the symbolism of the Scapegoat especially poignant to Christ: The parallels to the Crucifixion, the blood spilt in Christ's passion, led into the wilderness, the tearing of the veil of the Holy of Holies...
Hello, I hope I am posting in the right place:
I was thinking of the days of creations and realised Jesus died on the 6th day (when Adam was created on the 6th day). I was looking around the internet and found this...
