The gods are dead

It’s the Greco-Roman gods that are dead. Jesus, however, is trucking quite fine thruout history. “But the Lord is the true God, He is the living God, and an everlasting king: At his wrath the earth shall tremble, And the nations shall not be able to abide his indignation. Thus shall ye say unto them, The gods that have not made the heavens and the earth, even they shall perish from the earth, and from under these heavens.” (Jeremiah 10:10–11) “The voice said, Cry. And he said, What shall I cry? All flesh is grass, And all the goodliness thereof … Continue reading The gods are dead

No gift of God is fragile

The philosophers, however, chose to [teach philosophy] to the Greeks alone, and not even to all of them; but Socrates to Plato, and Plato  to Xenocrates, Aristotle to Theophrastus, and Zeno to Cleanthes, who persuaded their own followers alone. But the word of our Teacher remained not in Judea alone, as philosophy did in Greece; but was diffused over the whole world, over every nation, and village, and town, bringing already over to the truth whole houses, and each individual of those who heard it by him himself, and not a few of the philosophers themselves. And if any one … Continue reading No gift of God is fragile

Jeremiah 26!

After reading Jeremiah 26, is it any wonder that some thought Jesus and the Old Covenant prophet who foretold the New Covenant were quite similar? Jeremiah, under the Old Covenant, foreshadows, predicts, and points to Jesus and the New Covenant.  “When Jesus came into the coasts of Cæsarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, saying, Whom do men say that I the Son of man am? And they said, Some say that thou art John the Baptist: some, Elias; and others, Jeremias, or one of the prophets.” – Matthew 16:13,14 Old Covenant/Testament New Covenant/Testament = Same God of both The light … Continue reading Jeremiah 26!

Now I know to whom I belong

Did you know that the four Gospels are the only ones that have fulfilled the Old Testament predictions of Scripture? (Remember, those prophecies—foretelling that God’s truth would spread worldwide, even to the distant islands—were written centuries before these Gospels existed. The Gospels were later bound together, so to speak, with those ancient Scriptures into what we now call the Bible, a collection that has been recognized as holy Scripture throughout all ages.) In contrast, Islam, Mormonism, and similar faiths are “Johnny-come-latelies”—or more accurately, “Jesus-come-latelies”—that emerged long after and built upon the established foundation of the originals. It’s just something to … Continue reading Now I know to whom I belong

The “trial”

The “trial” “And they that had laid hold on Jesus led him away to Caiaphas the high priest, where the scribes and the elders were assembled. But Peter followed him afar off unto the high priest’s palace, and went in, and sat with the servants, to see the end. Now the chief priests, and elders, and all the council, sought false witness against Jesus, to put him to death; but found none: yea, though many false witnesses came, yet found they none. At the last came two false witnesses, and said, This fellow said, I am able to destroy the … Continue reading The “trial”
