Okay, your post really confused me. Are you saying that the NCC is a valid representation of Christianity? So many of these groups are neo-pagan who use “Christian” for leverage. They don’t agree with the Bible or the ancient creeds, or any basic definition of Christianity.

I’m not sure what your definitions of “chr*stianity” and “Biblical Fundamentalists” are either. I thought you were saying one thing, but your subsequent posts make it sound like something else. Can you help me understand what you are advocating?

Sad no? The fact that I think the True God can do better morally and spiritually than how he’s portrayed in the Tanakh and Talmud? But you are correct in one thing though Zionist Conspirator, the time to choose between Beelzbub and his Chronicles (the Talmud, Zohar, and parts of the Tanakh) and the True God and his Gospel is coming. All these so called Christians who are ashamed of Christ will indeed apostate it’s nothing new and has been foretold (2 Thessalonians 2:3). Then they and your Master (who’s hatred of Chirst and his Name is legendary) will get everything that’s coming to them, not by the hands of man but by God’s.

John Philoponus has just identified the G-d of the TaNa"KH (the Bible) with Ba`al-Zevuv, the lord of the flies. He also attributed the authorship of parts of the Bible to this figure.

Unfortunately for Marcionites, the Jewish G-d created the universe and everything and everyone in it. Everyone's entire life is encoded within the Torah, which was actually written by G-d (whom JP identifies with Satan).

It is you, JP, and not I, who are a hater of G-d, and you are the one who will pay for it when you fall into His Hands.

The True G-d of the "Satanic" TaNa"KH (Bible) is the most beautiful, holy, and exalted being in existence, the author of all life, and "the King of the Kings of the Kings," and I will do my utmost to defend Him from blasphemy--whether by atheists, liberals, progressives, or miserable little heretics from a movement chr*stianity rejected centuries ago. "The spirit of everthing that lives will bless You, O L-rd!"

And please be aware that blasphemy is a capital offense.

it looks like John Philoponus and possibly others are ready to return to the ancient Xtian tradition of confiscating and burning Talmud volumes.

John Philiponus is by his own admission influenced by Marcionism, an ancient chr*stian heresy that says the chr*stian "gxd" and the G-d of the Torah are two are two completely different beings. There is an old anti-Semitic, gnostic, and occultist tradition which identifies HaShem as Satan (chas vechalilah!), and JP seems to lean in that direction also.

Both the NCC and authentic traditional chr*stianity are anti-Israel and both despise Fundamentalist Protestants no only for their support of Jewish national restoration but also believing the Bible is totally inerrant. Traditional chr*stianity has long since turned against the Bible.

I’m not sure what your definitions of “chr*stianity” and “Biblical Fundamentalists” are either. I thought you were saying one thing, but your subsequent posts make it sound like something else. Can you help me understand what you are advocating?

I'm advocating that Fundamentalist Protestants leave chr*stianity (which they don't understand and which hates them) and instead embrace the true meaning of the TaNa"KH by becoming Noachides.

And indeed you should defend the True God from blasphemy. It’s blasphemy to attribute to the True God half the things the Talmud and the Tanakh do. You can start by denying the True God could stoop so low as to sanction genocide against His own people : Exodus 32:25-29 (31,000 dead), Numbers 16:1-3, 23-25 (250 dead), Numbers 16:41-49 (14,700 dead), Numbers 25:1-9 (24,000 dead), Judges 20:15-21 (22,000 dead), Judges 20:23-25 (18,000 dead), Judges 20:28, 35-37, 46-48 (25,000 dead), 1 Chronicles 21:2-14 (70,000 dead). This is only against his own people! This says nothing of the total extermination of various Cannanite tribes, or my personal favorite 2 Kings 2:23-25 :

[From there Elisha went up to Bethel. As he was walking along the road, some youths came out of the town and jeered at him. “Go on up, you baldhead!” they said. “Go on up, you baldhead!” 24 He turned around, looked at them and called down a curse on them in the name of the LORD. Then two bears came out of the woods and mauled forty-two of the youths. 25 And he went on to Mount Carmel and from there returned to Samaria.]

One of your God’s prophets calls down curses on children for taunting him, and your God obliges! Sick and disgusting. And you dare accuse me of blaspheming the True God?

Okay, I have become familiar with the term "TaNaKH" recently as the Jewish term for the books of the Old Testament (although with slight variation in verse and book groupings and order). I also learned recently that Messianic Jews (even more controversial than fundamentalist Christians) call the New Testament B'Rit Hadashah. Do you consider the B'Rit Hadashah valid? But I have not heard the term "Noachide" before. Google gives me links to "7 Noachide laws" which seem like the Ten Commandments minus 4,5,9 and 10.

How is "authentic traditional chr*stianity" "anti-Israel"? Is there anything anti-Israel in Christian writings before 300AD? And if it was added later, how can it be "authentic"?

To cleanse it (throwing out the money changers and stopping the animal sacrifices). Have you ever read what went on in that place before Jesus disrupted the services (both right before His crucifixion and then permanently when He foretold of it’s destruction)? The Talmud gives a full description and it’s like something straight from Paganism/Neo-Satanism.

stopped the animal sacrifices? even according to your writings in acts Paul didn't even do that. upon his arrival in Jerusalem before being arrested you'll remember he shaved his head and took the vow of a nazarite. which includes sacrificing a couple of turtle doves according to Torah. he did claim to be Jewish don't ya know.

Paul is a human being. In his moment of weakness he could have reverted to the old animal sacrifice rituals (they were going on for centuries and were an integral part of Judaism, the NT is full of examples of Apostles attempting to backslide to the barbaric rituals found in the Tanakh and described in the Torah). Old habits die hard. The bloodbath that went on in the Temple was legendary. The heave offerings (with each priest holding a severed part of the animal), the squeezing out of the blood from the offerings heart and spraying it over the alter. I’m sure God was pleased.

That should read “found in the Tanakh and described in the TALMUD”

Actually I was talking about before then. You might want to look at Luke 2:41-47 and Luke 4:16.

You didn’t even make it to the first chapter of Leviticus in your Bible study.

Luke 2:41, He was 12 years old for God’s sake. For all we know He could have been asking them what use slaughtering animals and spraying their blood all over the alter has (how can an unthinking animal take on the sins of the offender offering up the sacrifice).

Luke 4:16, it just says here that He read a scroll in the synagogue at Nazareth. Unless I’m missing something here?

Not a problem, I happen to think that a good chunk of the Tanakh and the majority of the Talmud are directly from the mouth of Satan himself. See? We can agree to disagree, that’s the beauty of living in a free country. I’m not forcing my beliefs on you and I don’t hate you for being deceived by the Enemy. The NT itself says there will be a great falling away.

I'm through with you. Go play with that other Marcionite "Giant Conservative" (if the two of you aren't the same person).

And what you totally fail to realize is that no human being can determine what is right and what is wrong (this is the essence of all liberalism). Right and wrong are determined by nothing other than arbitrary Divine decree. How dare a mere mortal sit in judgement on G-d! And thank you once againf or demonstrating the the chr*stian "gxd" appeals to liberals and rationalists!

And once again, anyone who claims the Jewish G-d is Satan (G-d forbid!) is a classic anti-Semite and doesn't belong on this forum.

Wow, so you can trash Christianity and Christ himself, and it’s ok. But when I likewise register my disgust with the Tanakh and Talmud, I should be banned? Classic.

I don’t mind that you are through with me. It seems we’ll never agree on anything, and I don’t want this to get personal, seeing as I have nothing against you (I just don’t agree with your religious world view).
