This is, and I’m being as objective as I can be, Michael Browns worst debate and one of the most lopsided debates I’ve ever ever heard.

This entire debate comes down to the second question Schochet asks Brown @ 1:27:33. Although not germaine to the supposed subjects of the debate as described by the moderator @ the outset, it reveals everything about Brown and his tenuous grasp of the basic tenets of his faith. He is asked how he differentiates between his belief in Jesus and the belief of a Muslim in Mohammed and the Koran, a Buddhist in Buddha, or a Hindu in the Vedas. Brown then proceeds to miss the point entirely. He talks about Jesus as a Torah observant Jew, the emphasis on atonement in the Gospel writings, Jews who have come to Christ and Burmese who have done the same. None of that is relevant when considering the fundamental doctrine of Christianity - the Incarnation. Diety "stamped" in flesh. There's your difference. Had Brown focused on this point, Schochet, would, of course, state that such a claim is idolatry and blasphemy. Brown might then turn to the resurrection (and the proof of it) to validate any claim that Jesus or the apostles made about his divinity. Now you have the substance of a real debate, instead of the prolonged and fruitless argumentation that preceded the question (despite Schochet's far superior rhetorical skills).

[@ebraismoecristianesimo1126]

[@ebraismoecristianesimo1126]

This is my interpretation of the debate: The Rabbi destroys Dr. Brown by quoting Romans and Galatians in his face: how absurd it is for a Christian to claim that he can be a scriptural Jew at the same time as being Christian. The new testament dissuades from such absurdity, yet Brown, disregarding his own holy book, dares to come to a debate to "prove" the absurd thesis. This happened already in the position statement of Rabbi Shochet. Brown, instead of answering, comes with the claim that Rabbi Shochet's stance on the Jewish (scriptural) messiah does not address "the problem of sin", which remains unresolved (not true, Scripture clearly gives the way and method to address this, and the Messiah is not a part of it). Therefore, says Brown following his imagination outside of the Scriptures, messiah must also necessarily be a "high priest", and provide a solution for the inclination of man to sin. In this way Brown "proves" that only Jesus could be the messiah. Brown never answers Rabbi Shochet, he states that the Rabbi quoted verses of the NT out of context", but anyone can see that Rabbi Shochet understood the NT VERY WELL. No christian can defend another Christian circumcising himself and wanting to follow the Laws of the OT. Brown, instead of debating (answering the Rabbi), only makes imaginary unscriptural assumptions and concludes them. This is not a debate, but a monologue based on circular logics. This debate is a complete debacle for Brown, from the logical point of view he is put to shame. One would wonder if, with all his diplomas, degrees and studies, he does this unintentionally or being fully aware of what he is doing.

It is clearly written that Timothy was circuncised as a need not to "make stumble" some Jews, not as the direct choice of Paul or Timothy. Galatians 3: 10" For all who rely on the works of the law are under a curse, as it is written: “Cursed is everyone who does not continue to do everything written in the Book of the Law.”[e] 11 Clearly no one who relies on the law is justified before God, because “the righteous will live by faith.” Do you read the words "UNDER A CURSE"????

[@rg54321]

First of all, regarding question 2 at the end, when Brown talks about "atonement", there are plenty of pagan faiths that predated christianity that proclaim a doctrine of atonement as well. In fact, pagan beliefs and practices that predate christianity proclaimed all the other christian doctrines as well, including virgin birth, resurection, etc. Second of all, Brown constantly sticks to the christian bible as a proof to whatever he is saying at the moment. One cannot prove anything from a bible that itself is the topic of debate regarding its validity. Third of all, Brown does not have an answer at all as to why any jew should believe in his false messiah jesus, when he didn't do anything at all to merit the title "jewish messiah". He was not a king in any sense, and he accomplished nothing at all regarding the things he was supposed to do as the messiah in the messianic era outlined in the prophets (which Rabbi Shochet listed at the very beginning of the video). So, Brown is asking us all to accept a messiah even before he accomplished the things he's supposed to accomplish. He says jesus will return and do all those things then. So we should respond to that: when he comes and does those things, we will then consider him ...

Dr. Brown cited the prophets and their prophecies on numerous occasions. That suggests to me that he, then, believes in those prophets and their projections. If I am correct in my observations, then certainly the good doctor is familiar with the following well known prophets and their prophecies, Jeremiah 16:19 and Zecheriah 8:21-23. In these prophecies, Doctor Brown is, in effect, told that he and those of his ilk are wrong. And, he is told that the day will come when he will come to see that he is wrong, place the blame on his ancesters and then seek to correct himself. If Dr. Brown is only going to cherry pick those prophecies, which seemingly support his views, then, in my view, he is being intellectually dishonest.

Currently at 29:10 Consider this, Rabbi Shochet isn't laying out evidences, he's making claims, claims like "Jesus mocked communal prayers in mathew chapter 6" He doesn't give any evidense for this he makes the claim then moves on, read mathew chapter 6 and that's not at all what's going on. Jesus is talking about making a show of prayer and religion for the sake of pride and that we need to focus on pleasing God rather than being praised by people. Jesus says this is so important that we need to be intentional about how we live to avoid even the temptation of doing religion for human praise rather than praise from God. Maybe this is addressed later, but with how many claims the rabbi is bringing up without going to the evidence I doubt we will have time in the debate to consider even a fifth of these claims.

[@faith1614]

I think the rabbis premise is that Jesus is judging those people are praying for other reasons than praying for the purpose of God alone. Matthew 6 opens with “hypocrites in the synagogue” therefore judging their actions and intentions negatively. Instead of just making the point without using others actions negatively for comparative reasoning. The same message could have been given without using direct and personal examples, which comes across as mockery especially to Jewish readers.

He caused the death, by drowning, of a herd of swine by allowing demons to purposely enter their bodies (Matthew 8:32, Mark 5:13, Luke 8:33) and destroyed a fig tree for not having fruit out of season (Matthew 21:18-21, Mark 11:13-14).

[@timanderson6473]

In the video at time 1:37:04, Dr. Brown casts doubt on the Talmud aka "Rabbinic" Judaism, that Jews follow till today. All the Talmud is, is an explanation of the Mosaic. In Exodus; Jethro, Moses advised (ie. morals and ethics) and Judged (ie. Jewish law) the Jewish Nation after the Torah was given. His father-in law, Jethro saw that he was exhausted (think of the long lines) and advised him to train people so there would be a hierarchy of helpers to help him. If Moses didn't know the answer from the Torah or what he learned after ascending to heaven, he asked g-d. These people became the first "Judges" of Israel and numbered between 70,000 to over 100,000. They went into Israel with the jewish nation. All the laws were also written on the second set of the ten commandments that Moses received from g-d. All law was oral and was transmitted through the generations source: Hebrew prophets. Deuteronomy 5:28, - G-d tells Moses: “But as for you, stand here (at Sinai) with Me, and I shall speak to you the entire commandment and the decrees, and the ordinances that you shall teach them and they shall perform in the Land that you shall possess.” Deuteronomy 1:18- Moses reminds the people: “I commanded you at that time (at Horeb) all the things that you are to do”. The Five Books reiterate again and again the importance of passing on the teachings of Moses to the future generations (Exodus 10:2; 12:14,17,24; 13:8,14; 31:13,16; Leviticus 23:43; Numbers 15:24,38; Deuteronomy 4:9,40; 6:2,7,20,21; 11:19; 12:25,28; 30:2; 32:46.) Not once throughout the Five Books are we commanded to utilize a book in the personal process of passing on the teachings of Moses to our children. The process is described as one in which parents speak to their children - an oral transmission. The Law of Moses, as it is described in the Five Books, remains for all practical purposes an Oral Law. When Moses makes continuous reference to “the Law”, “the commandments”, or “that which I command you” (e.g. Deuteronomy 26:16; 27:26; 28:1,14; 29:28; 30:2,11; 32:46), he refers to a body of information that his listeners carried around in their minds and in their hearts. When the Five Books declare: “Moses commanded us a Law, and inheritance for the congregation of Jacob” (Deuteronomy 33:4) - it is referring to an Oral Law that is the exclusive inheritance of the intergenerational community of Eternal Israel. The Prophets are replete with references to the "Oral" law. When the Rabbis saw that the Oral laws was being slowly forgotten, they codified and wrote it down into the Talmud.

Ebionites who believed Jesus was a mere man who didn't come from a virgin birth. Arians who believed Jesus wasn't God but created by God.

[@LOGOSNew]

Please don't confuse the historical Roman Empire / Catholic/Papal expansionism with true christianity. Not everyone who has claimed to be a christian or doing things in the name of christianity was genuine. The Bible says that not everyone who says 'Lord, ' 'Lord' will see the Kingdom of heaven. Similarly, the OT e.g Jeremiah 3 states clearly that God will use only the Remnant Jews to establish His throne in Jerusalem(those that please God, not veryone who is a biological Jew). It is true that Israel is God's chosen people, hence not true that the gentile church will replace Israel. But both Jews and Gentiles who pass God's judgement will constitute God's people ( Jer 3: 17, Ez 16:61, Zechariah 8:22-23, Micah 4:2,3).

[@Miso_Hornie]

God bless all the comments here but to the Jews rejecting Christ as their Messiah, where is your Messiah? Rabbi Schochet said that if he believed every Messianic prophecy, so what, what does that have to do with Jesus? It has everything to do with Jesus. Because the period for the advent of the Messiah is over. It's closed. If Jesus is not the Messiah, then Daniel 9 has no meaning. It's meaningless. In fact, would Daniel then be considered a false prophet because what he said did not come to pass? If the Tanakh is claimed to be the inspired writings of the LORD but contains the work of a false prophet, what does that say about the Jewish faith? A clear time frame is given and has since passed. Where is your Messiah? He is Jesus, the Son of God.

The argument that he is of the lineage of David fails in that Jesus is the Son of God, the Son of Man, not the biological child of Joseph. I am told by a Jewish friend that Jewish lineage is maternal, I have not questioned that statement, but assuming that is accurate, I have never seen the lineage of Mary. You seem educated in the topic at hand so I am interested in your remarks.

Jack Crabb Please read carefully!!This is the very first messianic scripture promising redemption directly after the sin of the man and woman. It is interesting that the prophecy is for a redeemer to come from the seed of a woman when most times in scripture legal genealogies come through a man. This is a hint to the virgin birth, Is 7:14. Genesis 3:14,15 And YAHWEH Elohim said to the serpent , Because you have done this, you are cursed above all beasts, and above every animal of the field.

Jack Crabb Jack, the lineage of Jesus Christ is traced back to Abraham in Matthew's gospel (Matthew 1:1+) and Jesus' lineage is traced back to Adam in Luke 3. Whichever way modern Orthodox Jews decide to impart "Jewishness" by birth, this much is clear: (a) All biblical lineages are given by the FATHER. Although we know who Jesus' ACTUAL Father was, any Jew would have considered Jesus to be of Judah since they supposed that Joseph was Jesus' father and Joseph is clearly in the line of David of the tribe of Judah. (z) If a Jewish woman marries a gentile man and has a child, that child would be Jewish by your orthodox friend's belief. How would the bible record that child? 'Name_of_child', son of 'Name_of_his_father" (b) Both Matthew's and Luke's lineage CLEARLY show Jesus to be of Judah. (c) Ruth was a Moabite woman who married Boaz of Judah. Boaz begat Obed and Obed begat Jesse who begat David. No one questions King David's lineage of Judah but his great-grandmother was born of Moab which is not even of Israel. This is a clear example of the Jewish Scriptures showing that lineage is of the Father. Joseph was of Judah so we see a clear Old Testament precedent of paternal lineage - hence, there is no issue with Jesus being considered of the tribe of Judah. (d) Jesus would have all legal rights and status as Joseph's son anyway. So by biological or legal inheritance, Jesus was of Joseph and has every legal right as Joseph's son. (e) The Luke lineage is often considered to be the biological lineage of Jesus through Mary. Since we see that lineage is never given in scripture by the mother, it is believed the biological lineage (through Mary) is given by the name of the fathers. This is also supported by Luke's use of (as was supposed) in his lineage which I believe he used to show that the ACTUAL biological lineage was from Mary although, yes, this could also mean that Luke is saying that God is ACTUALLY Jesus' father, not Joseph. (f) I also want to note that in Luke 2:1-5, when Caesar Augustus calls the census, Joseph must return to Bethlehem, the city of David, to be registered because he was of the "house and lineage of David." Please notice that Mary, pregnant with child, accompanies JOSEPH to be registered with him. Clearly, Jesus and Mary were both registered of the house of DAVID through Joseph. (g) I believe that any issue with any of these lineages would have been blatant to 1st century Jews who were risking EVERYTHING to believe in Jesus as the Messiah. To sum this up, whether Luke's lineage is of biological (through Mary) or tribal/paternal, we see a clear precedent of tribal lineage through the Father, not the mother, in Ruth 4 which shows part of King David's lineage which is not disputed. Jesus would have all legal rights as a son of Joseph of Judah. Though contested, it is a majority opinion that Luke's lineage is biological (through Mary) which would show that she also was of the bloodline of David. I think that this can be spoken of in much more detail but I think this is a fair address of your question - let me know. I probably could have listed my bullet points in a bit more of a cohesive order but I didn't (sorry!). Regarding the Jewishness of Jesus: Jesus was presented in the temple and circumcised on the 8th day. He was prophesied over in the temple. Mary observed her days of purification according to the Law of Moses and the Mosaic offering was given for Jesus when he was presented at the temple. Clearly Jesus was raised by observant Jews. Luke's gospel in chapter 2 records the only childhood event of Jesus where he is talking with the scholars in the Temple and amazing them with His understanding. Throughout Jesus' ministry, He expounds on the Jewish scriptures and calls out the Pharisee's, Sadducees, chief priests, and scribes as hypocrites in that they do not DO the burdens that they laid on the shoulders of others; that they made the word of God to no use through their own human tradition; that people blasphemed God because of them. Jesus quoted the Scripture extensively and demonstrated His authority and knowledge of Scripture - certainly these are the actions of a man who is a Jew (besides them being full of grace and truth as of the only begotten Son of God). Jesus was a Jew by birth, by heritage, by zeal; inwardly (Romans 2:27-29) and outwardly. I hope I addressed your question satisfactorily - it was a pleasure reflecting on this topic again. I try not to just rehash old arguments but I try to actually re-examine my own understanding as I answer therefore exhorting you (hopefully!) and myself at the same time.

What are you talking about? You obviously say it out of bias, that's why you felt the need to deny it. Maybe you were impressed by Shochet's empty noise and sarcasm, like some people are. Brown clearly and calmly showed that Shochet's claims are without substance and that he is shamelessly using passages out of context, like the one with Paul and the circumcision, and then he lamely explain himself: i just read the passage as it is.. Not a man of truth and honesty, obviously. While he was nervous and impulsive all the time, sign of fear and insecurity. That's why he childisly stated from the beginning that the rabbi won all the debates in the past. And he wasn't able to give a proper and clear explanation to what it means "to be the light of the nations", regarding the people of Israel. He even forgot to answer to this essential question and he needed to be reminded. No so much light, obviously.

[@nothingbutthetruth613]

@@viravirakti My comments are focused on the content of what was said. Shochet reminded Brown of something most Christians forget. The burden of proof is solely on the Christian. The Jew has no obligation to prove or demonstrate anything about his belief to a Christian. All Christians believe the same thing as Jews...up until jesus. So the only argument is did anything change. Obviously then the only thing that has to be shown is that it changed. There is no indication anywhere that anything changed. Everything points to the fact that nothing changed. This is what was demonstrated and this is why I said Brown was demolished. The only thing Brown has to accomplish up there is to show why we should believe it changed and instead of focusing on proving this, he simply tries to ask on Judaism and he tries to discredit them. He does this because there is no reason to believe anything changed. It's purely blind faith and believing the supposed testimony of one guy named Paul. What if he was lying about the whole thing? The ot is antithetical to everything that the church teaches so there's got to be some really heavy duty reason why someone should believe it changed and some heavy duty reason to believe Paul any more than to believe Mohamed, Joseph Smith or Hare Krishna. Can you tell me what that is?

There are only roughly 13 million jews in this world and the first obligation for the jew is to their own brethren who have gone astray.

And, as Brown said, not only that many things have changed, but the change is gradual, as, for God, time is irrelevant, 1ooo years are like a moment and viceversa, and the idea of instant change is a silly one.

If the Rabbi has the truth then why is he opposed to debate?????

[@ebraismoecristianesimo1126]

He said: such debates are useless. in fact, although brown lost miserably, it did not serve him to correct himself. The Rabbi destroys Dr. Brown by quoting Romans and Galatians in his face: how absurd it is for a Christian to claim that he can be a scriptural Jew and at the same a Christian. The new testament dissuades from such absurdity, yet Brown, disregarding his own holy book, dares to come to a debate to "prove" the absurd thesis. This happened already in the position statement of Rabbi Schochet. Brown, instead of answering, comes with the claim that Rabbi Schochet's stance on the Jewish (scriptural) messiah does not address "the problem of sin", which remains unresolved (not true, Scripture clearly gives the way and method to address this, and the Messiah is not a part of it). Therefore, says Brown following his imagination outside of the Scriptures, messiah must also necessarily be a "high priest", and provide a solution for the inclination of man to sin. In this way Brown "proves" that only Jesus could be the messiah. Brown never answers Rabbi Shochet, he states that the Rabbi quoted verses of the NT out of context", but anyone can see that Rabbi Schochet understood the NT VERY WELL. No Christian can defend another Christian circumcising himself and wanting to follow the Laws of the OT. Brown, instead of debating (answering the Rabbi), only makes imaginary unscriptural assumptions and concludes them. This is not a debate, but a monologue based on circular logics. This debate is a complete debacle for Brown, from the logical point of view he is put to shame. One would wonder if, with all his diplomas, degrees and studies, he does this unintentionally or being fully aware of what he is doing.

@@brendanbutler1238 Brown can affirm that Jesus is "that" messiah only by postulating that he must come again (to bring about the signs that are clearly prophesied by the prophets of old and which have not happened at the time of Jesus). There is no such prophecy as a second coming in the Hebrew scriptures, it's another postulate from outside scriptures. Rabbi Schochet keeps begging for a proof, but brown does not bring any scriptural proof, only subjective experience and non-proofs that can be applied in the same manners to muslims, buddhists etc... nothing scriptural. In fact, it is all greek literature, which is foregn to Jews. Why would a Jew accept a Greek testament and not an arabic Quran? both of them are documents based on the Hebrew Scriptures and foreign to the Hebrew Scripture. Furthermore, a Jew that becomes xian must worship, pray, serve and praise a human being, and ascribe to him the Power of God. This is a total violation of Scriptures (!), it is contrary to everything Jews have ever believed (including Jesus and his disciples). Finally, the idea that the messiah has to be God himself is not Jewish! This is another postulate from outside Scriptures. Moreover, the messiah must be from the seed of David, and Jesus' father is not of the seed of David. Furthermore, brown says that psalm mentions that the children of king David are "kohanim", which should prove that king David was a kohen (a priest), and that Jesus is a messiah-priest, but Rabbi Schochet clearly tells him that the word "kohen" means "person with an office, any office", another problem for brown who does not reply to this objection. There are so many problems and unproven things in what you and brown say that Rabbi Schochet concludes: be my guest, if you want to believe this, do it, but to go an missionize Jews and dissuade them from following the clear Word of God based on these beliefs (1. Messiah second coming, 2. Messiah is also a priest,3. Messiah dying to solve man's inclination to sinning 4.Messiah- a man- being at the same time God Almighty etc....) is a total abomination. Brown does not answer. he continues blindly with his Greek material. This is the conclusion of the debate.

[@brendanbutler1238]

@@ebraismoecristianesimo1126 The scriptures prophecy a suffering messiah and also an all conquering messiah, therefore the messiah must first suffer, and then come as the conqueror. Stories like that of Jacob show a younger brother who is rejected and thrown into a pit by his brothers but who then becomes powerful and saves his family (but they didn't recognize him until he revealed himself to them). Abraham being asked to sacrifice his son, and his son willingly laying himself down as a sacrifice. Stories such as these can be said to prefigure the life of Jesus. The Jewish scriptures don't have to say that the messiah will be God. God doesn't have to reveal everything at once. Even during Jesus's life he only revealed his identity gradually. Also the scriptures don't say that the messiah can't be God. It makes sense rationally that the messiah would be both human and divine as the scriptures say the messiah will be a human but they also ascribe to him Godlike powers and achievements. The New testament genealogies of Jesus both place him as a descendent of David. The greek new testament isn't foreign to the Hebrew scriptures just because it's written in Greek any more than the Greek translation of the Hebrew scriptures, the septuagint, is foreign to the Hebrew scriptures just because it's written in Greek Greek was the most international language of that time and so it made sense to write it in Greek, there is also evidence that it may have been translated from earlier Hebrew works. The Hebrew scriptures say that the messiah would bring all peoples to worship the Hebrew God, therefore it only makes sense that the Messiah's scriptures would be written in a language that the most people could understand. Even most Jews didn't speak Hebrew at that time. The New Testament was however written by Jews and was about the coming of the Jewish messiah in Israel, so it isn't a foreign document to the Jews unlike the Quran. It is Jewish history written by Jews. History that has been shown to be reliable. History since the time of Jesus also shows that Jesus is fulfilling messianic prophecy. 37 years after Jesus, the Temple is destroyed and Temple Judaism is ended, and replaced by Rabbinic Judaism. Jesus's followers go on to develop the world's largest and most successful Religion and civilization, thereby fulfilling the prophecy that all nations would come to know God through Abraham and his descendents.

[@returntozion9287]

Yep, tends to happen!

[@agis230]

Are you still there? I happened to be afflicted to find Jews seemed to refute Christianity, but up until now the pattern has been that if I was patient and persistent enough, an answer surely has come every time Judaism had something against Christianity

Love this!!!🤣🙏🏻❤️👍🏻

[@LIBRETAVIEJA]

The Roman Catholic, Greek Catholic, and Protestant canons, no two of which are alike, were fixed by modern councils. The Council of Trent (1645-1563) determined the Roman Catholic canon. While a majority were in favor of the canon of Augustine they were not agreed in regard to the character and classification of the books

Jesus is an idol! No man can die for the sins of others, pure paganism! New Testament is based on lies and twisting the old and only true bible !

[@susysalgado9211]

Rabbi with all fue respecto.. the anger expressed through your words speaks louder than your message. Pls calm down so that yr. msg. can be better understood. Bless the Lord Almighty!!

[@RSmith1982]

Okay so let me get this straight. They said that Yeshua taught against the Torah, but in the Jewish Talmud other Jewish teachers (not all) taught it's okay to have a lamb slain at a slaughter house by a "kosher" machine" and eaten in your house AGAINST the torah that said if you kill an animal and don't bring it to the temple you're guilty of murder Lev 17:3-4. How can you accuse Yeshua of doing what you embrace your "rabbis" for doing, when Moses' own nephews, the high priest Aaron's sons who were priests before GOD's Shekinah glory were killed by GOD for doing a sacrifice improperly!

[@RSmith1982]

Are any of the details you explained in the Torah or any other part of the Tanakh? Can the Talmud EVER trump the Torah on authority?

[@RSmith1982]

So if the Talmud says you can slay an animal without a temple, but the Torah says if you do you're guilty of bloodshed, then the Rabbis who wrote the Talmud broke the rules the prophets gave in the Torah, something the Jews who reject Yeshua claim their reasoning for rejecting HIM is.

[@RSmith1982]

By the way, I appreciate your maturity and courage in having this dialogue before others without breaking down to childish profanity as some do, that's commendable of you

[@RSmith1982]

So how do you get rid of your sins, the Torah makes it clear, there is no atonement for sin without blood.

[@RSmith1982]

Since the establishment of the covenant through Moses, sin was only forgiven by blood. Even with the day of atonement every year, you see the wrath GOD had against the children if Israel in the historical books. Therefore, if they were in that much trouble with a clean slate every year after the day of atonement, how much more with not a single atoning sacrifice year after year generation after generation?

[@JungleJargon]

It is ironic for sinful man to be saying that God did not bring in an end of sin.

[@marcusniaz3110]

The end of sin is repentance as is brought numerous times in Tanakh

[@bazzar4283]

Greetings to U all in Christ Jesus! I am 72 yrs and I cant think of a time when I was more deeply saddened in my life as listening to this debate! I know the Jewish leaders hated and loathed our Lord and savior Jesus Christ! Rabbi Immanuel vividly took us all back 2000 yrs ago when the Jewish leaders before Pilate demanded the execution of their own! and our God and Savior the Sovereign Lord Christ Jesus! By what he had to say and "in the way he said it"! May God in Christ Jesus bless you all!

Are u still alive ?

[@christopherrodriguez9471]

I think the rabbi had better points but someone else is going to comment saying that he doesn't just like this whole debate that we just watched. Its pointless to argue about because it's not going to change anyone's mind.

[@GeoffSh4rt]

I think you'll find that these debates change a lot of people's minds. Look at videos by Tovia Singer and read the comments.

[@regelemihai]

"are found in some of the older manuscripts of the New Testament, are Shepherd of Hermas" Yes, found. That doesn't mean they were considered inspired, anymore than a map of the Bible, or an appendix that are found in modern day Bibles mean that they're too are inspired. Those letters were not considered to be a part of the canon because they were written much much later after the apostolic period. They're all second century-third century works, hence not part of the original canon.

[@LIBRETAVIEJA]

Contradicting evidence is a sign of a non divine document. THAT is my point.

[@JungleJargon]

Scripture says that a ruler from the days of eternity will be born in Bethlehem. You cannot get around that. God will be born in Bethlehem and He will be King. Everyone understood that Messiah God would be born as a man since God told Adam and Eve that the seed of the woman would crush the serpent's head.

[@allisonsmith9050]

This is referring to King David, who is the biological descent of the Messiah and was indeed born in Bethlehem (1 Samuel 17:12). Another problem Christians have is the infancy narrative contradictions. Some gospels say it’s Bethlehem and others say it’s Nazareth. Which is it? Cannot Be both. As for crushing the serpents head, I cannot think of the greater proof that Jesus was NOT the messiah. Satan is everywhere, nothing was “crushed.”

[@JungleJargon]

@@allisonsmith9050 Messiah conquered death and He has sent everyone His Holy Spirit so that no one can make excuses before Him. David is a type and a foreshadow of messiah, not the actual Messiah. An ordinary man of sin cannot ever be Messiah. Only God Himself can be our Salvation. Only your Creator can perfectly cover for you Himself and remake you again from the inside out by the power of His true word as no one else can. Everything you do is on and against your Maker whether you want it to be or not. David is not a ruler from long ago (from before Micah). The God of Abraham and Moses is “I Am”. The God who wrestled our father Jacob is *I Am.* (I am an I1 M253 descendant of Dan : )

[@ryanswint6026]

For this Rabbi to say that the way of atonement in Islam is the same as Christianity is to tell me that he is either lying or he is totally ignorant of Islam. Among absurd statements that he made, that was one of the worst. His references in the New Testament and his twisting of what Paul teaches are a sign to me that this man is not serious. He did completely misinterpret what Paul says, and no that is not a matter of opinion or interpretation. Anybody who thinks he knows what he's talking about, at least be intellectually honest enough to actually read the books in the New Testament he is referencing. He is stern and tries to come off as righteously indignant, but fails completely when he tries to deal with the New Testament.

cont...fact that it was finally closed then does not mean we do not know what it looked like prior, which was your central argument. We can recreate the entire NT from what the Church Fathers quoted alone! Add to this the fact that we have countless of canonical lists, and we know exactly what it looked like. It doesn't help your argument to bring up the fact that SOME of the minor epistles were contested for some time. All the Gospels were part of the canon, as was Acts, and the Pauline...cont

"Be a good Xtian and become a Catholic already" Ok. " there are different and various Xtianities" And as usual, you've failed to demonstrate that apart from saying that there are different sects who read the Bible differently, which is the same as saying that there are "different US Constitutions" because many people are decided into camps that read and interpret it differently. Logical incoherence is the basis of everything you say.

Hebrews, James, 1 Peter, 2 Peter, 2 John, 3 John, Jude, Revelation. These are New Testament Books which are now accepted by Xtians, but which were for a time rejected,Thus yes the Xtian Bible has changed many times.
