   Eliyahu to All   
   6/3 The OT prophecies, as quoted by the    
   06 Mar 04 10:24:40   
   
   [continued from previous message]   
      
   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?

   NT, look here:  http://www.geocities.com/Metzad
