  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

That’s not really accurate - Christ specifically refers to “all the books of the Law and the Prophets”, which would mean in the context of Judaism the five books of the Pentateuch and various other books in the Old Testament.*
"And various other books" is as accurate as we can get. I could not find a motivation to read through the rest of your post, honestly.

No its not, since there are specific prophecies quoted in the New Testament, such as from Isaiah. Really, reread Luke 24 and then read Matthew, who explicitly points our fulfilled prophecies from throughout the OT.

Since Matthew is canonical we know Christ was at a minimum talking about those books, such as Isaiah, and also other Old Testament texts quoted elsewhere in the New Testament.
