      [continued from previous message]              which God says it would return from the land of the enemy.       So this is another text which has nothing to do with murdering       children in the days of the messiah, a text which is ripped out of       context and presented to us as a messianic prophecy, which it is not.                     Another OT prophecy, as quoted by the NT:              Matthew 2:23; "And he went and dwelt in a city called Nazareth, that       what was spoken by the prophets might be fulfilled, "He shall be       called a Nazarene.""              This prophecy won't take up much space, because you can read through       the OT from beginning to end, and NOWHERE is a prophecy to be found       which says that the messiah should be living in Nazareth, or that he       "shall be called a Nazarene".              So now the NT is quoting non existing prophecies.                     Another OT prophecy, as quoted by the NT:              Matthew 27:9-10 "Then was fulfilled what had been spoken by the       prophet Jeremiah, saying, "And they took the thirty pieces of silver,       the price of him on whom a price had been set by some of the sons of       Israel, and they gave them for the potter's field, as the Lord       directed me."              And also this prophecy does NOT speak about the messiah.       But what is even more interesting is that this prophecy is not from       Jeremiah as the NT claims, but it is from Zechariah. See Zechariah       11:12-13; "I told them, "If you think it best, give me my pay; but if       not, keep it." So they paid me thirty pieces of silver. And the LORD       said to me, "Throw it to the potter"-the handsome price at which they       priced me! So I took the thirty pieces of silver and threw them into       the house of the LORD to the potter."              So the NT is written by Bible-illiterates who couldn't even mention       the right prophet…                     Another OT prophecy, as quoted by the NT:              Luke 24:44-47; "Then he said to them, "These are my words which I       spoke to you, while I was still with you, that everything written       about me in the law of Moses and the prophets and the psalms must be       fulfilled." Then he opened their minds to understand the scriptures,       and said to them, "Thus it is written, that the Christ should suffer       and on the third day rise from the dead, and that repentance and       forgiveness of sins should be preached in his name to all nations,       beginning from Jerusalem."              And, surprise!, NOWHERE in the whole OT is it written that "the Christ       should suffer and on the third day rise from the dead, and that       repentance and forgiveness of sins should be preached in his name to       all nations, beginning from Jerusalem."              Another NT quote from the OT which is nowhere to be found in the OT.              How is it possible that there are people who keep on believing these       lies?              For more information about why the Jewish people don't recognize the       NT, look here: http://www.geocities.com/Metzad                            Eliyahu              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
