@Rual: The "Orthodox Rabbi and Jews....denied it...", for the simple reason that the "New Testament" is NOT scripture that was given to man by God. It is a false, pagan, man-made, anti-God, anti-Jewish, hate-filled, replacement theology work of fiction, that preaches AGAINST what God ACTUALLY said to us at Mt. Sinai, and that God NEVER gave to us. God ABHORS human sacrifice (a purely PAGAN ritual!), therefore the 'Jesus dying on a cross for people's sins' narrative, just did NOT happen! The ONLY scriptures God ever gave to mankind, are the Hebrew scriptures (Tanach - Hebrew Bible, comprised of Torah, the Prophets and the Writings, i.e. Psalms, Proverbs, etc.) that He gave to Moses at Mt. Sinai. He specifically told us that His words are ETERNAL (i.e. STILL in effect and binding TODAY - a LIVING document!) and that we are NOT to follow ANY other teaching than what is in His Tanach. Christianity IS another teaching, that God NEVER gave to us, therefore, we are NOT to follow its false, pagan teachings - God's orders! PLEASE do some honest research on how your false, pagan religion started, and you WILL discover that it absolutely did NOT come from God, Creator of the universe.

He's like the Pharisees who walked around glorifying themselves and their positions and when Jesus came and he came to his own, and they received him not. 😮 The people began embracing the gospel of Jesus Christ and the Pharisees didn't want people to hear his doctrine because Jews were turning to Jesus Christ.

As someone who was a once a Catholic, and come from a family of Catholics, I love Rabbi Tovia Singer channel. I can say that Jesus spoke with metaphors, like being born again, means forgetting yours sins and your past, and become a new person, that is why they were baptizing people, it was something to be experience in this life, when it comes to Jesus being elevated to deity, John and Paul were the ones who did that,

The lies attributed to Jesus are not his responsibility. Respectfully I say: The Way, The Truth and the Life - aka - Jesus Christ himself said EXPLICITLY that he has a God so I believe it. Do you believe it? When this The Way, The Truth and the Life said EXPLICITLY that the Father is The Only True God so I believe it. Do you believe it? If I don't believe what this The Way, The Truth and The Life himself said then it is clear that although I say that I believe The Way, The Truth and The Life I actually believe The Misdirection, The Falsehood and The Death. ******* And just to remember: The way NOT the destination. ******* Every Prophet and Messenger of his time is THE ONLY WAY to God in his time or was Moses THE MISDIRECTION?🤔 At the time of Moses (peace be upon him) did people to God through every other Tom, Dick and Harry and not what Moses gave?🤔 At the time of Moses, was there any other way to get to God?🤔 At the time of Moses, would God give a person eternal life if that person happened to reject Moses? The answer is NO. So could you please write that at the time of Moses, Moses was the Misdirection, the falsehood and the death. 🤔 ******* At the time of Abraham (peace be upon him) he was THE WAY or was Abraham (pbuh) THE MISDIRECTION, THE FALSEHOOD AND THE DEATH?🤔 No. If you really think that Jesus is THE ONLY WAY THEN at the time of Abraham (pbuh) Abraham for his people was not the way and the truth and the life then please write categorically that Abraham was THE MISDIRECTION, THE LIE and THE DEATH. So think! Every true Prophet of God in his time is The Way to God, is The Truth and if one believes that Prophet then that is The Life? So think! Not only with curiosity but with sincerity.

Jesus Christ himself gave the testimony that the Father is THE ONLY TRUE GOD. This God is the God of Jesus too. ******* My position position agrees. Of course the term Father in the Jewish context. Metaphorical. NOT that God has a "Son" or that God is an actual Father of someone. God has got Son by the Ton in the Bible.

So after witnessing just a single "miracle" from Paul the deceiver they were conforming to their already held beliefs. No wonder when they heard of this guy Jesus with all the stories of his miracles, it was very easy for them to take him as "Son of God" / "God" as this already went hand in hand with their belief system. Little wonder that those times and those places and people also had "Triads" and ancient "Trinities" and "God" in threes and stuff. 14:11 When the crowd saw what Paul had done, they shouted in the Lycaonian language, "THE GODS HAVE COME DOWN to us IN HUMAN FORM!" ****** Then of course the abomination of the alleged blood "sacrifice" of Jesus Christ making the Most Merciful in to some blood thirst vampire. ******** Unfortunately, it was the Pauline Christianity and Pauline doctrines, backed up by the powerful Roman Empire that eventually won out over the years wiped out the Jewish Christianity of radical monotheism.

[@mr.fredericchopin6214]

I am Jewish and I have a BA in English. I do not interpret the verse "I am the Way, the Truth and the Life" the way many Christians do and good theologians like Paul Tillich would never interpret it that way either. I approach it that we are all sons and daughters of G-d created in His image and likeness who in our essential nature are spirit, that is, our soul is divine, eternal and we were, are and will ever be made of G-d stuff! When Jesus said "When you see me you see the Father, I understand that G-d can manifest in any one of us. If we have the proper "poverty" of spirit, in that our wills are subordinate to the Almighty, that when Rabbi Tovia speaks with wisdom, who is to say that the Holy Spirit is not speaking through Tovia. The still small voice mentioned in Ephesians. When Jesus says in poetic terms I am the Way, he is acting, in my interpretation, as exemplar, showing us that though we may find it impossible, one needs to try to live one's life in a certain way. One, like Jesus, needs to try to experience and testify to the beauty in this world, but one must also bear one's cross, too, one must be creative like the Father and finally, one needs to attempt to transform the evils around one into the good. This is how Jesus lived and the four paths he walked. We have to try to do this too. When we take a false step, we need, each of us, to repent and say we are sorry. Like a 12 step program, we need to constantly turn things over to the Higher Power. And do a fifth step to apologize to other when we trespass. Then, I am... the TRUTH... If one cannot try to see the Truth of one's humanity, how one affects others, in order to repent and show G-d you know you have done wrong, then if one constantly deceives oneself and others, how can he possibly think that he can return to G-d in any glorious manner. The pure of heart may see G-d but not the Ego Centered person who in his life on Earth will add nothing to THE LIFE. So, I see Jesus like the Burning Bush with G-d speaking through him. Jesus is Divine just like we all are, he was egoless. In the crucifixion he wears a crown of thorns just like the Burning Bush had thorns. The Sacred Heart painting portrays Jesus as having a flame that burns eternal from his heart, and again this is just like the burning bush in Exodus. If I at least try, as a son of God that Jesus said we are ("Our Father who art in Heaven.") G-d is our Father, then I can accept that G-d manifested through Jesus so man could get closer to Him... closer to Hashem, not to Jesus. If I rid the story of Jesusidolatry and paint Jesus as the 2nd Adam, a man with a Divine soul just like mine, then I am believing that we can all allow G-d to work in us and through us if G-d even wants to work in us. Meister Eckhart say all of this that I am stating here in his sermons from the 13th Century. I do not view Jesus as any more or less divine than I myself consider myself to be, being made of G-d stuff in my essential nature since I have an immortal soul and I am spirit. Therefore, the verse, "I am the Way, the Truth and the Life... only through me does one go to the Father" is a statement of the way to live life, to face the Truth of one's humanity and bring life to the world. To fulfill one's mission on earth in this life by constantly turning your life over to Hashem, of understanding that the Hashem has the power, not even Jesus had that power to even raise the dead. Ego-centered living leads in the opposite direction, to attachments to money, houses, and leads to greed and those who travel that road are in spiritual darkness... I cannot believe that Jews go to Hell because they don't accept Christ as their Savior... this is lame. the chosen people brought G-d to the Gentiles. Jesus came first for the Jew, then for the Gentile. Boy, has he failed if Jews can never be saved. Hashem is the Ssavior, only Him. If He manifests through one of HIs children, say, for instance, through Jesus, so be it. If I can touch G-d, be close to Him, Hashem, then I don't believe that the egoless Jesus is standing in the way. I interpret these lines differently. Jesus could be looked at as the empty, egoless vessel through which Hashem chose to express Himself... Similarly, G-d is forever co-creating within me. the still small voice in Ephesians... The standard church way of interpretation makes no sense to me. I reject it. As for the Crucifixion, I interpret that differently too. Let's use as an example the idea that my loved one is going up her Calvary because she is dying of Cancer. and at the end of it all, I believe that she will be relegated to a coffin at Forest Lawn Cemetery for all eternity. We cry out to G-d, "where were You when the holocaust happened?" Well, I can interpret that G-d in Jesus died on the cross and faced spiritual death and that Jesus, in oneness with G-d, the Father, did not go into a tomb for long but rose to Heaven. God here shows me that my loved one is not going into a dark casket but will rise in the same way as Jesus did, in oneness with his Father, to mansions that have been prepared. This is the Gospel or Good News of the Kingdom as far as I am concerned. I don't believe in bloodletting and the typical idea that Hashem requires 16 pints of blood from His one and only Son. Christianity, in my way of interpretation, is more complex in its metaphysics than Judaism but can bring peace to the Christian and non-Jew who needs G-d's comfort. Christian Theology does NOT have to be full of Jesusidolatry... I am not a Christian, or a theologian, but merely a humble Jew with a BA in English and I just gave you my bluebook examination final test on one of many ways to better interpret John 14.

Others were born with his living soul but just having the breath of life does not guarantee that you will live forever. Adam sinned. He lost his eternal life. Noah and his family had the breath of life and were saved but others ALSO had the breath of life in Noah's day and they drowned! Genesis 2:7, 7:15, 7:22) Jesus is not God and Jesus could not do this to anyone. Only God can do this. Paul lied about seeing Jesus after he died as did the story in John after his death. Whoever rewrote the new Testament (possibly the Romans and Josephus) changed the real story. Paul is just a minister no different than Franklin Graham is and the Christian ministers believe the lies that were added. I know because God lives inside me. God is a spirit.

In my journey of moving away from Christianity, I decided that Mark presented the most accurate picture of Jesus. What began my learning of this was reading a biography of Albert Schweitzer by James Brabazon. I found out that Schweitzer was a great Bible scholar. He established that Jesus was a Jew of his time. This had a major influence in university religious studies. I later read other books with this historical approach; “Jesus the Jew” by Vermes; “The Passover Plot” by Schonfield. I also read some of the Dead Sea Scroll. This got me away from the Paul & Greek philosophy dominated parts of the New Testament. I looked at just Mark understanding it from what the Jews were going through at that time; being under Roman rule; having the face of the god/emperor shoved in their face every day on coins. Having statues of Greek/Roman gods on their land. The people watched as those loyal Jews who resisted this religious oppression were tortured by being nailed to crosses all over Israel. - Reading Mark from that view, I saw that Jesus & the apostles wanted what the Essenes in the Dead Sea wanted, what John the Baptist wanted; that God should intervene to overthrow the Romans & liberate Israel. And that liberation should happen in the lifetime of the people hearing that message.

[@tomlawhon6515]

Saying that reading Mark is more accurate, or less accurate to understand Jesus is like saying you know Jesus better by studying Trump than Pence. Pence is more like Matthew. Mark is like Trump. One was probably an apostle when Jesus was crucified. The other was a teenager from a different country, who was a witness to the crucifixion as a teenager. Mark needed others to tell him what Jesus did in the tetrarchy of Galilee. That is why Mark is so much briefer. Mark leaned on what he knew personally. You need all the witnesses to gain a fuller picture, which includes all the witnesses.

[@bb1111116]

​@@tomlawhon6515 ; In each Gospel, the text does not state who the author is. There is no evidence that any of the Gospel authors were eye witnesses to the life of Jesus. Over 70 years after the crucifixion, Church Fathers began assigning the names of authors of Mark and Matthew’s Gospels. The claim that the apostle Matthew and Mark wrote their gospels was first made by Papias around 110 CE or 77 years after the death of Jesus. Irenaeus was a priest of the Church of Lyon who lived from 161 to 180 CE. Irenaeus was the earliest to claim that what we know as the Gospel of John was written by John the Apostle, and what we know as the Gospel of Luke was written by Luke, the companion of Paul. If Jesus died in 33 CE, this assigning of authorship of John and Luke’s gospels was over 133 years after his crucifixion. * As for the date the Gospels were written; - Mark Most scholars believe that the Gospel attributed to Mark was written about 70 CE and was the first Gospel to be written. - Matthew Most scholars believe the gospel attributed to Matthew was composed between 80 and 90 CE - Luke Most scholars date the composition of the combined work of Luke / Acts to around 80-90 CE. - John Most scholars estimate the final form of the text of John’s Gospel to have been written around 90-110 CE (late first century, early second century). * Mark’s Gospel was the first to be written. It is the closest to the life of Jesus with less influence from Paul compared with the other Gospels. The Gospel of Mark gives a closer portrayal of a man who was an observant Jew of his time.

I don't believe that Jesus is the way, truth, or life. I never did. I grew up Catholic by force because my ancestors were Sephardic Jews and one had to convert to Christianity or die. I was never told about my ancestry. I believe my parents were afraid of the Inquisition. Somehow my soul knew that he was not G-d. I returned to my roots after a revelation from Hashem, blessed is He. He, blessed is He, knows who His children are. Because, I believe, it is in our soul since my ancestors accepted the way of Hashem, blessed is He, in the desert. Hashem, blessed is He, responds to our prayers as He, blessed is He, promised. If only the whole world understood that, and realize that there's only One God, Creator, Giver of life, and the only True God! B"H

[@johnb1877]

Rut Brea; You are in a rut.......you grew up catholic really....with no faith.......we are talking eternal life.....follow the philosophies that only the world can offer to deceive you. There is simply no other way to get to heaven than the merits of the God-Man Jesus Christ. The gulf between sinful man and the all-holy God cannot be bridged in any other way. Anyone who gets to heaven will do so because of Christ. Put negatively, Buddha is not the way, Mohammed is not the way, and we are not our own way. Christ, as God, is Truth and Life, and as the God-man the Way for man to God. The same is said of the Church because Christ is Head of the Church and His merits and His authority to confer salvation flow into the Body, so that Christ and the Church are inseparably one. He and the remnant of Israel form the true vine, to which the gentiles have been grafted. This is clearly a visible reality, a unity identifiable in the world as an assembled people (ekklesia/church = assembly) which can also describe a synagogue.

No Jews were forced to convert during these times, the ethnic strife and unrest between the Muslims and Christians, Jews and Converted Jews which made it impossible to rule a united country under one flag, Spain back then had drove out the Muslims of Iberia and they needed to solve their internal affairs. So they gave the option to Muslims and Jews - Either convert or leave. Jews didn't convert because of The Inquisition, don't let nobody fool you - it was all voluntary and so big in the 14th century that later on bishops and cardinals were of Jewish ancestry and very ironically King Ferdinand of Aragon himself had also a converso grandmother. It is estimated that 1/5 of Spain population had Jewish ancestry, why did such a vast group of people kept believing in Christianity if they were forced to? Second, most of what we hear about the Spanish Inquisition is pure British Protestant propaganda which England propagated back in time through its scholars to combat the Catholic Church and Most Catholic King (Spain) through misinformation war which takes place until this day. Death toll is still estimated by historians between 5000K - 1000000M. The thing is there are archives and documents of 44,674 cases heard by the Inquisition of Castile and Aragon between 1540 and 1700, out of that only 826 were executed

He doesn't. When it comes to Judaism, he's devout. Something I learned from him, that's obvious once you ponder it, is that Jewish holidays are community events w lots & lots of witnesses. Like Passover is the escape from Egypt & the arrival in the promised land, but there isn't a holiday about Abraham & Isaac & G-d stopping the sacrifice. Ponder it. If a whole community is the witness of G-d's miracles, (the parting of the red sea, manna in the desert, Mt Sinai, etc) you aren't relying on one or two or three to testify. If G-d's miracles are historical events there is proof of the divine in historical events. That's Torah.

Every Prophet was the way to God during his time until the last and universal Prophet to be followed till Eternity...

[@saycheese6773]

Why Jesus died on the cross for us explained in simple terms… God is perfect in all his attributes. He is forever the same and unchanging (in the past, present, and future). That means he’s eternally perfect in holiness, love, mercy, justice, righteousness, etc. Since he is perfect in holiness, no sin can be in his presence, and since he is perfect in justice, all sin is punished. The Bible says, the wages of sin is death. This essentially means that all sin regardless of how minuscule or large the act is, will be punished. Practically speaking, let’s say a person lived his whole life and committed only one sin, a lie, he will forever be separated from god because sin is what separates us from a perfectly holy and just god. Regardless of how many good deeds this person does in their life, the wages of sin is death (spiritual and physical). That means you cannot bribe your way into heaven with good deeds. Also, god cannot just forgive you because even though he is love and merciful, he is eternally just and holy and all sin is punished. Imagine for a moment, that you get a speeding ticket and in court you tell the judge how sorry you are and that you will never speed again and you beg for forgiveness, and that you also are a very generous person who has donated thousands of dollars to the poor and who has volunteered thousands of hours helping others. A just judge will say good for you, and I’m glad you won’t speed again, but the fine of $200 still needs to be paid. Imagine how much more holy, righteous, and just god is. That being said, this is where the cross comes in to play. Jesus lived a holy life (meaning he committed no sin) and since he was unjustly punished and put to death, death could not hold him (penalty of sin is death) and therefore he rose from the dead, defeating death (Revelation 1:18 “I am He who lives, and was dead, and behold, I am alive forevermore. Amen. And I have the keys of Hades and of Death.”). Since sin is a transgression against god, god was the only one capable of providing a path for forgiveness/salvation. Sin against a holy god requires a perfect/eternal punishment/sacrifice. The cross is where god’s perfect justice (sin is punished) and mercy (forgiveness for our sins) meet. God’s perfect love for us is displayed through the cross because out of his own free will he made a path for salvation and a way for us to be justified (forgiveness of sin) before god. Jesus lived a life we have not lived (sinless), died the death we should have died, and paid the price we could not pay. That is why Jesus say’s I am the way, the truth, and the life, no one can come to the father except by me, because there is no other way to god or path for salvation. All of us have sinned and have fallen short of the glory of god, and the only way to be forgiven is to believe and put your faith in Jesus and into what Jesus has done for us on the cross! Praise all be to the King and Savior the Lord God Almighty Jesus Christ!!!

@Deals Durban "Nobody can lay their life down as a human sacrifice for sins" Can an animal give up its life as part of an animal sacrifice for human sins?

[@djtheshooter6748]

@Deals Durban - Brother, do not be offended. Consider something dear friend. Isaiah 53:4 "4 Surely he has borne our griefs and carried our sorrows; yet we esteemed him stricken, smitten by God, and afflicted." *When did Israel bear the griefs and carry the sorrows of other people?* Isaiah 53:5 "5 But he was pierced for our transgressions; he was crushed for our iniquities; upon him was the chastisement that brought us peace, and with his wounds we are healed." *When was Israel pierced for the transgressions of other people? *When was Israel crushed for the iniquities of other people?* Isaiah 53:6 "6 All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned-every one-to his own way; and the Lord has laid on him the iniquity of us all." *When did God lay on Israel the iniquity of other people?* Isaiah 53:7 "7 He was oppressed, and he was afflicted, yet he opened not his mouth; like a lamb that is led to the slaughter, and like a sheep that before its shearers is silent, so he opened not his mouth." *When was Israel like a lamb led to the slaughter and was quiet about it?* Isaiah 53:8 "8 By oppression and judgment he was taken away; and as for his generation, who considered that he was cut off out of the land of the living, stricken for the transgression of my people? *When was Israel completely cut out of the land of the living i.e. no Jews on this earth taken out because of the transgressions of other people?* Isaiah 53:9 "9 And they made his grave with the wicked and with a rich man in his death, although he had done no violence, and there was no deceit in his mouth." *When was Israel's grave made with wicked men yet Israel was buried in a rich man's tomb? *When in history was Israel ever without violence?* *When in the history of Israel was there a time when Israel never lied?* Isaiah 53:10 "10 Yet it was the will of the Lord to crush him; he has put him to grief; when his soul makes an offering for guilt, he shall see his offspring; he shall prolong his days; the will of the Lord shall prosper in his hand." *When was Israel's soul offered for the guilt of other people?* *WHEN WAS ISRAEL RESURRECTED FROM BEING DEAD TO SEE ISRAEL'S OFFSPRING? You see Deals, the aforementioned questions are impossible to be speaking of Israel. They as well as the entire Bible, speak of one person! If Isaiah 52:13-15-Isaiah 53:1-12 speak of Yeshua HaMashiach, then Rabbi Singer and anyone else who apposes His Messiahship is 100% wrong! You cannot be right and wrong about His person simultaneously!

[@djtheshooter6748]

@Deals Durban - False sir. God raised the dead people for Elisha. You must read the scriptures carefully. For example, you said, "Elisha raised the dead." Elisha did no such thing my friend. 1 Kings 17:20-23 "20 And he cried to the Lord, “O Lord my God, have you brought calamity even upon the widow with whom I sojourn, by killing her son?” 21 Then he stretched himself upon the child three times and cried to the Lord, “O Lord my God, let this child's life come into him again.” 22 And the Lord listened to the voice of Elijah. And the life of the child came into him again, and he revived. 23 And Elijah took the child and brought him down from the upper chamber into the house and delivered him to his mother. And Elijah said, “See, your son lives.” YHVH RAISED THE DEAD CHILD. Contrast that with the power of the Messiah of Israel! John 11:14 "14 Then Jesus told them plainly, “Lazarus has died, 15 and for your sake I am glad that I was not there, so that you may believe. But let us go to him.” John 11:20 "20 So when Martha heard that Jesus was coming, she went and met him, but Mary remained seated in the house. 21 Martha said to Jesus, “Lord, if you had been here, my brother would not have died." John 11:24-25 "24 Martha said to him, “I know that he will rise again in the resurrection on the last day.” 25 Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life.[d] Whoever believes in me, though he die, yet shall he live," YESHUA DID NOT SAY GOD IS THE RESURRECTION. HE SAID "I AM." Big difference! John 11:40-44 "40 Jesus said to her, “Did I not tell you that if you believed you would see the glory of God?” 41 So they took away the stone. And Jesus lifted up his eyes and said, “Father, I thank you that you have heard me. 42 I knew that you always hear me, but I said this on account of the people standing around, that they may believe that you sent me.” 43 When he had said these things, he cried out with a loud voice, “Lazarus, come out.” 44 The man who had died came out, his hands and feet bound with linen strips, and his face wrapped with a cloth. Jesus said to them, “Unbind him, and let him go.” HE NEVER SAID, "GOD, PLEASE HELP ME. HE NEVER SAID, "LET THIS MAN'S LIFE COME AGAIN LIKE ELISHA." HE SAID, 'LAZARUS, COME OUT."

[@djtheshooter6748]

@Deals Durban - Brother! You surprise with your New Testament references. Before I delve into your reference statement, it begs the question of Isaiah 53 and ALL OF THE BIBLE pertaining to Yeshua. Because IF Isaiah 53 is about Him, then He also has to be God because the Bible calls Him God. And IF Isaiah 53 is about Him, ONE HUNDRED PERCENT OF ANY OBJECTION ABOUT HIM IS 100% FALSE. Do you understand this sir? On the flip side, if Isaiah 53 speaks of someone else, Yeshua is false everywhere else! No need to object anything about him because he essentially be worse than Hitler ever was. Acts 2:22 "22 “Men of Israel, hear these words: Jesus of Nazareth, a man attested to you by God with mighty works and wonders and signs that God did through him in your midst, as you yourselves know-" God did the works through Him does not mean Yeshua was not God. And it still contradicts your Elisha comparison. Because Yeshua never asked God to perform a miracle. The idea that God did the Miracle through Yeshua validates the fact that He became a man not that He ceased in being God. He had to become human to die for the sins of His people. But as many do, you read something that prompts your defense mechanism...Ah ha! But if you keep reading in Acts, this is what followed 2:22 in vv. 25-28, (A JEW PETER IS THE SPEAKER) "25 For David says concerning him, “‘I saw the Lord always before me, for he is at my right hand that I may not be shaken; 26 therefore my heart was glad, and my tongue rejoiced; my flesh also will dwell in hope. 27 For you will not abandon my soul to Hades, or let your Holy One see corruption. 28 You have made known to me the paths of life; you will make me full of gladness with your presence.’" Here, Peter quotes Psalms 16:8-11 about the resurrection of Yeshua. You mean to tell me David spoke of Yeshua????? And since NO MAN IS HOLY, How is it David calls Him (Yeshua) "HOLY ONE"? Any if the New Testament is Greco-Roman, Pagan, why is a first century Jew Peter quoting the greatest Jewish King David in Tanakh in the New Testament?

@Paula WallaceHi Paula - Yes, God is one, but he’s capable of presenting himself in whatever way he wishes. E.g. out of a whirlwind to Job, as a man to Abraham and Jacob, in a burning bush to Moses, in the words of the Tenakh to all humanity, as the Angel of Adonai to Joshua, as 4 creatures to Ezekiel (this was similar to the cherubs, but I think the first one was a vision of God - I may be wrong). God has made light and matter. He has made our eyes. Therefore he can, if he wishes, present himself to us in any way that he wants. (He is omniscient and omnipotent.)

[@johnzarr6590]

One of the problems with Christianity is that most Christian Sunday sermons are either solely about the New Testament or are Joel Osteen style sermons that have very little to do with either the New or Old Testament. Most of Joel Osteen’s sermons resemble improved motivational speaker Tony Robbins type lectures on how to be successful in life. Deuteronomy 4:2 basically says not to substitute other Joel Osteen type material for the Old Testament that supports Christianity’s adulterous, idolatrous worship of idols, money & financial success. The reason the Old Testament is so important is that the Old Testament is more or less a history book of the human race. And if you don’t learn from history, you are doomed to repeat the same mistakes you have made in the past. The main problem with the New Testament is that in terms of a history book, it only goes back to the time of JC. The New Testament just doesn’t cover a very long time period. The Old Testament goes back to creation of the universe and covers a much larger time frame. -

He writes that it looks like Jesus May have taught in a kind of poetry! As John’s book is written as such, implying that it was memorized.

"The prophet" in this case is Hosea, and what the prophecy actually says is "When ISRAEL was a child, I loved him, and out of Egypt I called my son." (Hosea 11:1). This prophecy was Hosea speaking in the PAST TENSE about G-d delivering the Jews from bondage. If it was about Jesus (never mind it says it's about Israel) Hosea would have written it in the future tense, and said "out if Egypt I WILL CALL my son." It's not even a prophecy.

If the statement of John is not found in the other 3 gospels, it doesn't mean is no true. All four authors of the gospels speak different, but the central idea of the divine Jesus is always there. Mathew convey the scene of Poncius Pilate washing his hands while the Jewish people is chanting: ¤ "His blood be on us, and on our children." Mathew 27:25 This statement is not found in the other 3 gospels. But it is true. Indeed, Jesus is the life, the way and the truth. Acts 3:15 says: "YOU KILLED THE AUTHOR OF LIFE, BUT GOD RAISED HIM FROM THE DEAD." Here we have the apostle Luke addressing Jesus as the source of Life. Confirming the words of Jesus who said: "I am the the way, the truth, and the life." That is why the Mesiah strongly said: "Those who believe in me will have eternal life." It is very simple, he is the source of life.

Mark was a teenager when Jesus was alive. Matthew and John were full grown men. What each of these men remembered as witnesses was a result of their individual character. According to a strong tradition, Mark spent time with Simon Peter. But how do you explain what one ignorant fisherman, Peter, remembers, and what a different ignorant fisherman, John, remembers. This type of problem only occurs to people who have never spent time among the uneducated, or even illiterate. The fact is that some people under the same conditions, grow up to be very different people, concerned about different things. That's why Jesus practically takes a jackhammer approach to Peter, Jesus says to James and John ye know not what spirit he are of. This is also a rebuke, but for two thoughtful men to think about. Peter always plows ahead rashly. John thinks about everything he does. Preserving the difference between uneducated men is a point of realism you can see in the Bible. It is not just stereotypes. If you have several men with good access to a leader, and ask them to write an account, they will all write a very different account, but some things will occur to all. What I wonder is how Tovia thinks that anyone's life can please God without the way, without the truth, and without the life of God in them at all. That would be hard to explain.

The Kings of those nations will bring the glory of those nations to the Father. .......What else did you speak of that you have no idea what you are talking about.......I know there was one more......oh yes, There are many different ideas of when the Gospel of John was written, you just chose the 95ad time frame because it is easier to spout against. Actually very few people believe it was that late because of absolutely zero mention of the destruction of the Temple, which was kind of a big deal, in a past or present tense mentioning. Nothing in all of the new Testament scripture. John's book of Revelation was written after all the other books he wrote, and it was obviously written before 70ad. Isnt it odd that now both Christians and Jews are looking for their Messiah to come (just as Jesus said the first time He came)?

Look into astro-theology. Hindus are waiting for their 9th avatar/messiah. Krishna was their last. Devotees believe he was the incarnate One, Brachma the all-knowing, bringing light, truth, and grace to sinners. Too many similarities to put here. We are transitioning from the Age of Pisces the twin-fish. Catholic-Protestant. The fish is a symbol as is the cross of Christianity. Egypt worshiped the lamb and it belonged to the previous Age. In defiance its blood was smeared over doorways. We are riding the wave to Aquarius the water-bearer ... messiah. Age of renewal. New life. All allegory but really happening as the proverbial spiritual war between the children of light [gnosis] vs. all religious mainstream orthodoxy within all fields of the human experience. If you are comfortable reading something non-religious then get 'Between Two Ages' by Z. Bryzchinski.

Re: Mark 9:1 and other verses that said that some wouldn’t taste death before the kingdom came. Yet, they are now obviously dead. In the Tenach, there are times when God addresses a group of people telling them what will happen to them and because of their attitude, God changes his timing. e.g. Exodus 6:6-8, God speaking, “Wherefore say unto the children of Israel … I will bring you out from the burdens of Egypt … and I will bring you unto the land which I did swear to give to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.” Obviously, most of that generation didn’t make it. e.g. 2 Kings 20: 1, “Isaiah (said to Hezekiah), ‘Put your house in order, because you are going to die; you will not recover.” (similarly Isaiah 38) Hezekiah was given 15 more years to live. (Interestingly, 15 Sabbatical years after Hezekiah’s (later) death, Jerusalem fell.) Note: Just the timing of God’s plans change - not the final outcome.

Peace. Every single prophet of the Almighty says this. Because he is the way and the truth - for his time - If you were in the time of Noah, you must believe in Noah or you would perish (by flood no less). In the time of David, you must follow David or perish, same for Solomon, Elijah, John the Baptist and all the rest. They were the truth and the way for their time. They were the prophets of God, believe in them or perish. Each for his time and his people. Peace be upon them all. All mentioned.

Because of the commandment God give to the Christ . Jesus is the way in what he did , We are to do as the Christ did . It about doing as the son of man being the Word of God, came in truth to keep His God and Father commandment , and that woad be the first three in deed .

[@aboomohammad]

Every prophet was the way to God for his people. Abraham David, Joseph, Isaiah, jeremiah Jesus Mohammed. All of them. They were the truth, because they came with a message of truth for the same god yes they were the light to their people. But Christian's pretend that only Jesus was so. Meaning if they take this verse literally t would mean all other prophets were liars and false prophet and only Jesus was true.

[@57andstillkicking]

The prophets in the Old Testament were true but they were not the way, truth, and life because they were men. They pointed to God. Jesus claimed to be divine so he could say He was the way, truth, and the life. Any prophet denying the deity of Christ is not giving a piece of the truth. They would be false prophets.

[@jeffreyjacob5185]

I watch this channel very intently, as I feel that Tovia poses serious challenges to some of the doctrines of Christianity. This video, however, was not so compelling for me, due to the fact that a "high Christology" existed well before the earliest gospel of Mark in the letter of Paul to the Philippians (chapter 2 -which I *believe" is fairly uncontroversial in ascribing genuine authorship to Paul, as well as an early dating). There is also the letter to the Colossians (chapter 1), though there is disagreement on authorship of Paul here. Nonetheless, I feel that Philippians poses a serious problem to any contention that the development of a high Christology occurred over time, by contrasting narratives in John with the other synoptic gospels (which post-date Philippians). My sincere regards to Tovia for his other challenging videos though. Shalom.

[@ToviaSinger1]

Jeffery, you ask one of the more incisive questions raised in this comments section. Really excellent. I can strengthen your question further because the Carmen Christi (the Latin phrase) may very well be a preliterary text. Meaning, this may be a hymn that predates the book of Philippians itself. This is often a graduate level course which explores possible preliterary “hymns and creeds,” and is the topic of much scholarly discussion. Moreover, scholars are more divided over John 1:1-18 than any other passage in the NT. In short, the difference, in my view, between Philippians 2:6:11 and John’s prologue is significant: In the former, Paul declares that Jesus did not consider equality with God a thing to be grasped (gk. Harpagmos) (ESV). The context: Paul’s point to his followers is a warning: do not boast. Rather, humble yourself the way that Jesus humbled himself! Jesus didn’t take what didn’t belong to him. As a result, God rewarded Jesus and raised him up. Jesus is definitely not equal to God. According to Paul, God bestowed upon Jesus the glory given to the Father in Isaiah 45. In Paul’s view, Jesus is given what he did not have. The Logos of John, on the other hand, is given nothing. He is the Logos; he didn’t need to earn that status. Again, what that means exactly is the subject of enormous discussion. What is germane is that the Christology of the prologue is much higher than that of the Carmen Christi. Great question.

[@johnb1877]

@@ToviaSinger1 The object of our prayer-life is to empty ourselves and be filled with the Trinity. The first thing Jesus did when He became Man was to empty Himself. "His state was Divine, yet He did not cling to His equality with God, but emptied Himself to assume the condition of a slave and become as men are; and as all men are, He was humbler yet." (Phil. 2:6,7) Our mission in life, then, is to cooperate with God's Grace and empty ourselves and be filled with the Trinity. We are not to seek detachment to be free of responsibility, but to enable us to love both God and man with a pure love. We are not to withdraw from the world to be alone, but to be with God. We are to do penance, not because it erases our guilt, but because it wipes away the traces of sin. We are to empty ourselves, not for the sake of self-control, but to be filled with God transformed into Jesus. While the idea of boasting normally connotes arrogance in English, this is not always the case in Paul's thought. This raises the possibility that the Jew may not be here boasting in his own-self accomplishment indeed, he is boasting "in God" or in his relationship with God, which in the Jewish mind is a relationship of grace. The Jew may be "glorying in the Lord" , but his boasting is misplaced since he believes his relationship with the Lord is from Torah. The Jew may indeed be arrogant over the Gentile in believing that he has a grace-filled relationship with God through Torah, but it is not a boast of self-accomplishment, but a boast "in God," based on one's relationship with God (through Torah), as many contemporary commentators have noted. Because of the difficulty some modern readers may have in understanding the difference between arrogantly boasting in self-accomplishment and arrogantly boasting in one's relationship to God, an analogy may be helpful. Imagine two little boys bickering with each other. In the process of the conflict, one little boy adopts a superior attitude and says, "Well, my dad is better than your dad." In this case, the child is arrogantly boasting of his relationship with his dad, even though he is not boasting of his self-accomplishment. He is not citing any actions he has done as evidence for his favored status; he is simply holding forth his favored status (a relationship with the better dad) as grounds for boasting. As a devout catholic I can boast about Catholicism/Christianity being superior to Judaism not of my arrogance but relationship with God.

The phrase THE WAY , THE TRUTH AND LIFE and other phrases came with it is similar when one define the word BEAUTY. To the Muslims every prophet is THE WAY, THE TRUTH AND THE LIFE AND THE WAY TO GOD IS THROUGH THEM FOR THEIR OWN NATION. This means that every one of them brought the message from God, and that God is One and worship Him only. Attached to this message is how to conduct oneself on earth. Salvation came when one follow these messages which came THROUGH these prophets. But to a trinitarian , when attached the name JESUS to the phrase they say it meant JESUS is God or son of God. Well the lady may not get her answer from the learned Rabi definitely or satisfactorily

There be some among that shall not taste of death - how do we know that everyone there at that time truly passed away since? What if someone was like Melchizedek or Methuselah and given supernaturally long life....maybe to be one of the two witnesses prophesied in Revelation...what if this "generation" means something more broad than a 70 year human generation....see, if He truly is the Son of God, His available scope of knowledge would far exceed our simple understanding. Maybe after Noah's flood was counted as a new "generation" of humanity in general.

You are ungrateful stone hearted stiff necked creature. Fear living Jesus Christ, don't worry He is coming again to separate goat like you from sheep who are humble and worship living God daily.

Why do you believe Genesis written thousands of years after creation of this world?? Do you believe God loves all mankind He created by His own image, not Jews only?? If you do so, then remember God's total love for mankind pour out by sacrificing death of JESUS CHRIST ON THE CROSS.

You just emtied my comment.

[@HomeBibleCollege]

John wrote that The Word is God. And then he explains that the Word became flesh. The sentence 'I am the way, the truth and the life' is referring to Christs claim to be able to bring the disciples into the Messianic kingdom. He promises to bring them into the Fathers house the Messianic temple. The Phrase 'This generation'. Refers to those who will see the kingdom. Of course the kingdom was delayed because of the Jewish rejection of Christ. Yes the new birth is the resurrection of the dead. Nicodemus should have known this. I see that you are struggling with christians who misunderstand these texts and apply them to christianity, when they actually refer to the conversion of Jews for the kingdom.
