I'm from The Dalles. Looking forward to another GREAT winter like last year, eh Jeff? :thumbsup:

McDonalds is a cesspool. But no worse than 99% of the other FAT food restaraunts in this country.

Yes, after reading Brainiacs post, I'd pretty much agree to disagree it's speaking of Israel.

Well, I don't have the text in front of me, other than what you typed. If it is a verse concerning messiah, what about this part: ISA 53:5 [5] But Israel was wounded for it’s own transgressions, Israel was bruised for it’s ownl iniquities: What are messiahs transgressions and iniquities?

So if we commit no murder we are accursed? That is keeping the Torah of G-d. Undeniable. Do you honor your father and mother, if so, why? Do you refrain from a lying tongue and being a false witness? Why? Are you accursed sir? 1Sa 15:22 - And Samuel said, Hath the LORD as great...

I've read 3 of the 4. To be honest I wish I hadn't wasted my money on the Irony of the Galations. I believe Nanos pretty much got it wrong. His work on Romans was far superior IMO. Our Father Abraham really opened my eyes in alot of ways, I enjoyed the book thoroughly as well, and it's a much...

I find it odd that you find this odd. Considering all that is stated about gentiles coming to faith in the G-d of Israel throughout the "old" testament. >>I wonder if it makes it easier for a gentile to embrace Judaism if they do not have to let go of their messiah?<< I don't think so...

Well, one proof is the fact that long after Yeshuas death and his discourse in Mark on clean and unclean... Is the fact that the apostles still kept a completely kosher diet. At least the apostles hand picked by him, the ones who walked this earth with him. When you read acts, where Peter...

Neat site. My top 5 were; 1. Seward, Alaska 2. Saranac Lake, New York (Nooooooooooooo!) 3. Steamboat Springs, Colorado 4. Jackson, Wyoming 5. Ketchikan, Alaska I'd like any of them except New York. :)

Isn't it obvious after reading acts 10 that Yeshuas very disciples never took what happened in Mark to be a release from the dietary "laws". I think it's readily apparent.

Who has a link to Simchat_torah's thread on it? Excellent read. Or was that at theology forums?:scratch: Yafet?

No. You should not give up. What has been revealed to you is from the Holy Spirit himself. Don't cast it aside. It can be frustrating, I know. I've given up trying to reach my friends and family with words and theological debate. It causes too much anxiety. It's like beating my head...

This type of statement always comes up when questioning Paul. I simply refer them to Isaiah 8:20; 20 To the law and to the testimony: if they speak not according to this word, it is because there is no light in them. You see, it has nothing to do with my ideas. I just prefer the...

Pauls message is still convoluted to me. It can be twisted to fit any mans theology quite nicely. Including the messianic pov. I've studied him from the "churches (rooted in Rome) pov" for over 20yrs. Over the last year I've thrown it all out. I won't lobby against Paul, but to me he adds...

I don't care much for any creed. They are nothing but hot air IMO. I especially do not hold the nicene creed in any high regard, I don't disdain it, but it's not relevant to my life, much less my faith.

hehe ty guys and gals. :) I'm really busy as of late, I mostly come here and only have time to browse really. You guys are all great, I enjoy very much reading the things you have to say. Very encouraging and enlightening most of the time. Again, tyvm. :)

Isaiah 56:3-8 3 Neither let the son of the stranger, that hath joined himself to the LORD, speak, saying, The LORD hath utterly separated me from his people: neither let the eunuch say, Behold, I am a dry tree. 4 For thus saith the LORD unto the eunuchs that keep my sabbaths, and choose the...

Personally, I take the writings of Paul with a grain of salt. It's by every word from the mouth of G-d we are to live by, so says Yeshua. So I seek to spend my time searching out those things, rather than trying to untie the riddles of paul. I don't believe the NT text to be the inerrant...

It wouldn't be the first time pork was used to deter terrorism from islamic fundamentalists: Plagued by Islamic terrorists in the southern Philippines, U.S. Army General John "Blackjack" Pershing's troops captured six Muslim guerrillas in 1911. "You'll never see Paradise," one officer told the...

I'm studying this exact topic right now. Basically the reliability of the scripture. It can be rather trying at times. While there are issues with the Tanakh, they pale in comparison with the problems of the NT text. Though some would argue contrary to that simply because the Tanakh is...
