Micah 5:2 says “But thou, Bethlehem Ephratah, though thou be little among the thousands of Judah, yet out of thee shall he come forth unto me that is to be ruler in Israel; whose goings forth have been from of old, from everlasting.” If Micah had predicted that the messiah would rule a heavenly kingdom instead of an earthly kingdom like Micah misled the Jews to believe, and had predicted that the messiah would heal people, and that the messiah would be crucified, buried, and rise from the dead in three days, and that Pontius Pilate would become the Roman governor of Palestine, and that Herod would become the King of Judea, would at least one more Jew have accepted Jesus? Please answer the question yes or no. If you wish to elaborate further, that is fine, but please start with a yes or no answer. I do not really need that argument, or any other argument regarding a particular Bible prophecy. No God who wanted people to believe that he can predict the future would refuse to make indisputable predictions, and needlessly create confusion by making disputable predictions. An example of an indisputable prediction would be a prediction when and where a natural disaster would occur, month, day, and year. If the Bible contained lots of predictions like that, there would be no need to debate whether or not at least one being exists who is able to predict the future. Why doesn't the Bible contain any indisputable prophecies? Again, if you continue to refuse to directly reply to my arguments, I will refuse to directly reply to your arguments, and even if you continue to refuse to directly reply to my arguments, I will still frequently repost them in order to show the undecided crowd that you are not nearly as confident of your arguments as you pretend you are. Your days of being a bully are over. |

Message to sugarhitman: You have wasted your time starting a lot of threads on Bible prophecies since my arguments in this post adequately refute all of your arguments regarding Bible prophecy.
Micah 5:2 says “But thou, Bethlehem Ephratah, though thou be little among the thousands of Judah, yet out of thee shall he come forth unto me that is to be ruler in Israel; whose goings forth have been from of old, from everlasting.” If Micah had predicted that the messiah would rule a heavenly kingdom instead of an earthly kingdom like Micah misled the Jews to believe, and had predicted that the messiah would heal people, and that the messiah would be crucified, buried, and rise from the dead in three days, and that Pontius Pilate would become the Roman governor of Palestine, and that Herod would become the King of Judea, there are not any doubts whatsoever that at least one more Jew would have accepted Jesus. I do not really need that argument, or any other argument regarding a particular Bible prophecy. No God who wanted people to believe that he can predict the future would refuse to make indisputable predictions, and needlessly create confusion by making disputable predictions. An example of an indisputable prediction would be a prediction when and where a natural disaster would occur, month, day, and year. If the Bible contained lots of predictions like that, there would be no need to debate whether or not at least one being exists who is able to predict the future. You have not provided any sensible reasons why God makes disputable predictions instead of making indisputable predictions. If the God of the Bible does not exist, that explains why there is not one single indisputable prophecy in the Bible, or in any other religious book. If you refuse to directly reply to my arguments, I will refuse to directly reply to your arguments, and even if you continue to refuse to directly reply to my arguments, I will still frequently repost them in this thread, and in all of your other threads on Bible prophecy in order to show the undecided crowd that you are not nearly as confident of your arguments as you pretend you are. I will not allow you to be a bully who insists on choosing whose arguments get discussed. |

Why should we respond to someone such as you? Do you know what you sound like? A big kid whinning, who sounds like he is angry with God. Your repetive arguements are so numerous that I dont even read them any longer, I skip over them. We have answered your questions many times, I have even written a thread called "Desolation of Egypt" and yet you continue to say I have avoided this. Johnny you are stark raving mad, and should be ignored. This is my last time responding to you. :wave:
