The bible explains Gods dealings with the Jews from their father Abraham right up to the present day.
Whether they like it or not that are Gods witness to the world.
Searching the scriptures reveals the truth or falsity of the prophecies concerning the Jews.
This is something lost on the mainstream churches.
If you doubt this will you check the evidence for yourself?

Theland, you’ve issued an open invitation to ‘check the evidence’, an invitation that nailit and I have accepted, but you’ve failed to provide the evidence you would like us to check. I can only conclude that it doesn’t exist.

For starters, the book of Habakkuk, one of the minor prophets, in its three chapters, is a dialogue between him and God, and foretells the coming invasion of Israel by the Chaldeans, (Babylonians), many years before it happened.
What do you mean by, "many years"?
Question Author
It was written in the mid to late 7th century bc and the invasion came in 584bc.
"Determining the date of the book of Habakkuk is quite a bit easier than dating most books. He spoke often of an imminent Babylonian invasion (Habakkuk 1:6; 2:1; 3:16), an event that occurred on a smaller scale in 605 BC before the total destruction of Judah’s capital city, Jerusalem, in 586 BC. The way Habakkuk described Judah indicates a low time in its history. If the dating is to remain close to the Babylonian invasion, Habakkuk likely prophesied in the first five years of Jehoiakim’s reign (609–598 BC) to a king who led his people into evil."

Doesn't appear to be that many to me.
I can't believe this is going on again!!!!!!

Corbyloon, he wasn't wrong.

Andy, yes believe. Join in my friend.
Being aware of the then political situation doesn't make him a prophet.
Question Author
Habakkuk is a small but important part of the whole picture.
God had made a covenant with Abraham regarding His people, and gave warnings and promises to them regarding loyalty and disobedience.
From that day right up to the present day, God has kept His word and the prophecies are still unfolding before our eyes.

That hideous pointless Groundhog Day nonsense of preaching and pompous guff you think is 'sharing your good news'?

I've got to put the things in the fridge in alphabetical order ...
Question Author
Oh dear. Pompous guff? Well I've never really thought about it like that.
Do all Christians make you feel that way?
Theland - // Oh dear. Pompous guff? Well I've never really thought about it like that.

By no means - my wife is a Christian.

No - just those with the endless pompous superiority and hand-wringing, with their "I've got something you need because I understand 'God' better than you do ...".

And when anyone questions their baseless claims about knowing what God wants, and thinks, and needs, and will do and won't do, they either ignore the question completely, or they get really stroppy and offensive.

Then the next day, they come back and do it all over again.

That's the kind of Christian I mean.

Sound familiar?

So Andy, given your close proximity to a believing Christian, you must know what makes a Christian? Yes?
And you must know that a true Christian gets instruction from the bible? Yes?
And the bible instructs us to deliver the Good News by whatever means? Yes?
So your wife would agree with me? Yes?

No.

My wife is far too well-mannered and socially aware to imagine that adopting an arrogant and snooty superiority to anyone who does not believe as she does is anything other than boorish, pompous, small-minded, intolerant and ignorant - all the things which, as a Christian, she is not.

If my wife had evidenced one percent of the obsessive, domineering, chippy, sneering, arrogant, nasty, pompous, dogmatic ignorance that passes for 'Christianity' from some of the posters on this site, I would not even want to be her friend, far less her husband.

Fortunately, because she is a Christian in the proper sense of the word, she accepts my non-belief perfectly happily, she does not feel she has to 'share her good news' with me every minute of the day, and we have an adult acceptance of the simple fact that not everyon is required to think as she does.

Hope that helps.
I didn't expect a reply from Theland, when beaten, he simply goes away and starts a new thread.

It's the only area where he is consistent!
Theland, your offer has been accepted and you’ve been asked to provide something that we can investigate to prove/disprove your claims that God has fulfilled all the prophecies. Where is it?
naomi - // Theland, your offer has been accepted and you’ve been asked to provide something that we can investigate to prove/disprove your claims that God has fulfilled all the prophecies. Where is it? //

Since it took me three individual attempts on three separate days to wring a bland and standard response out of Theland, I am sure, like me, you are not expecting a response any time soon - or indeed at all?

On his well-known track record, he simply ignores anything he considers awkward - which is anything you or I ask him - and appears another day with a fresh lot of unproveable views, with the ongoing conviction that we will believe what he says simply because he says it.

Another day, another silence ...
Oh Yes Please!

Ezekiel ch37 describes perfectly the reestablishment of the nation of Israel.
Theland - // Ezekiel ch37 describes perfectly the reestablishment of the nation of Israel. //

The good news is, Theland has returned to the thread.

The bad news is, he is sticking on safe ground - offering biblical texts, and not getting into anything as tricky as answering questions.
