I've been thinking bout this long and hard and I am wondering what the premise was for a Jesus concept in the first place.
In the Old Testament as per my previous posts God Wrestled with Jacob in Human Form. He also met him on the way to Sodom and Gomorrah.
Many say that since Jesus was born of man that is why he can bring us to God. But I wonder deeply on this aspect because Adam was created from Clay (Dust). Eve was created from Adam and possibly Clay (Dust).
Given that the First Man and First Human Biblical existed as Dust then why did god need Jesus to be born of a Human Origin why not just have him created around the age of 30?
Jesus repersents one born into slavery, but broke his chains and freed all the other slaves who also want to be free from the consenquences of sin.
Quote:Another thing I dont get is why the Heck does John from Prison send a messenger to ask about Jesus validity. If memory serves me correctly John the Baptist is a cousin of Jesus on his mothers side.What are you talking about? John repeatedly announced that Jesus was God.
Are you meaning to tell me that John never knew that Jesus was his cousin and even if he did he Certainly somehow seams to be unaware that his Cousin is God!
Quote:Back then many supersitions were around heck look at the Gnostic Gospels. I don't think it would be without merit to see that John was not preaching about Jesus in his lifetime!You have to ignore
all four gospel accounts to believe this, Because all 4 state John the baptist acknoweledged and exhaulted Jesus as the Christ.
Quote:My other question Is::He did not undo anything.
Why did Jesus un-do things in the old testament and say that things were acceptable why did God during the first 3 Copies (Exodus) not figure out that he would end up removing half of the rules?!
Everything is still in effect, it just that our way to righteousness is no longer by doing those things. Because we can not keep all of the commands we are guilty of breaking all of them. therefore we must seek a 'new way' to find righteousness needed to spend eternity in Heaven with God.
