The Jewish Messiah will come at the end of days and he will be a man. Jesus is fully human and fully God. And when he returns he will fulfill the Jewish prophecy at that time. The first coming of Christ ended exactly as intended. He was sacrificed to reconcile justice with mercy and he established himself as the Word of God and fulfilled the original covenant.But reject every single supernatural act by Jesus and his claim of who he is.What I have shown you I have drawn from the teachings of Jesus and the story in the written gospels without adding, subtracting, or changing a single word.It is kind of hard to reconcile your position with the >24,000 written manuscripts. Or do you believe there was a massive conspiracy to forge more than 24,000 documents?lol... Its called intelligent thought. You should try it. One hit and all your troubles will vanish, and you'll be hooked.
Careful though, The hard stuff is not for sissies .
If rational thinking is too scary for you, maybe you should stick with the grape juice they are handing out in church for children.....
Jesus literally poofed fish sandwiches out of thin air as a demonstration of divine supernatural power over reality when 5000 people gathered around him, a homeless person in the middle of the desert, because they really needed a snack.
So what if it contradicts reality. So what if it makes no rational sense. So what if it never literally happened. So what if there is something of great value hidden there. Fuck intelligent thought. You don't have to understand anything. You just have to believe!
Thats the ticket!
You, a tough guy, are going to stick with that story ? really? Isn't that a little light in the loafers for a tough guy?
Jesus claimed to be the expected Messiah, a Jewish man. What you call supernatural acts, miracles, were signs that Jesus was exactly who he said he was. Feeding the multitude was about Jesus teaching the multitude what he learned from God satisfying their messianic expectations.
They were not demonstrations of supernatural power over reality nor proof of divinity.
ALL of the miracles he performed established his divinity. His claim established his divinity. The 24,000 written manuscripts recorded it. So either he was a madman and there was a massive conspiracy or he is exactly who he claimed to be.
I have some slightly negative news for you.
There are TENS OF THOUSANDS OF DOCUMENTED MIRACLES going on
in Israel every century-----mostly in Beersheba where it is very hot----and flat---
and surreal. Ever hear of the goat which could quote the Talmud chapter and verse?
