Look, I would want to distance myself from it if I was you also. laugh

This is in the OT so you figure these people were out in the desert there with their sheep and cattle and oxen or whatever else they had and it got "chilly" and lonely some nights.

I imagine it was more of an occurrence with the men folk if you catch my drift.

But god was trying to tell them that they should refrain from that kind of thing because it might cause a lot of confusion. huh

Even if that were the case, chances are not from bovine. I think the idea was just to stop the farmers from doing it and to put a prohibition on it. You figure it had to be happening often enough for it to go into the bible.

It had nothing to do with health concerns and more about just ceasing to do it anymore.

Moses said a great prophet would rise up among the people. he was speaking of Yahshua the son of Yahweh as this Great Prophet.

We can see how with all he did never hurting anyone the Elite in religion had him killed.

The false prophets always get a free pass because the Elite religious leaders know they have nothing to fear from this one.. Blessings...Miles





The middle part there, who were you talking about Miles. It's not clear, kinda looks like you were talking about Moses. Can you clarify?

Jews do not accept Jesus as the messiah because:

1) Jesus did not fulfill the messianic prophecies.

2) Jesus did not embody the personal qualifications of the Messiah.

3) Biblical verses "referring" to Jesus are mistranslations.

4) Jewish belief is based on national revelation.

I have more once you complete these. :wink:

A Jewish historic website. Are you disputing its validity simply because you can offer no explanation? The Hebrews were sticklers for the details and kept excellent records. They were not simply going to accept any Tom, ****, or Harry as their Messiah.

Can you blame them?

There are still prophets. It's just hard to tell who to believe anymore.

Course, the Bible does give guidelines to that... :smile:


i was reading about that tonight actually.

I love studying prophecies.



1) a true prophet is to speak in the name of the Lord, the true God.

2) The true prophet speaks only at the Lord's command.

3) A genuine prophet backs up his message with a holy, God honoring life.

4) The true prophet (sometimes) authenticates his message with a miracle.

5) The true prophet's message is always in harmony with what God has already said.

6) The true prophet's message always comes true.

HENCE, Nostradamus was not a prophet as he never spoke of divine judgment, heaven, or hell.

I was reminded of something I heard a long time ago. It was actually said by a comedian, don't remember his name, but it came back to memory. "What if all those people you see on the streets talking to themselves are just reluctant prophets?" It got me thinking, and as this place is filled with people who have seemed to studied a lot of religion and even those of different types, I wanted to see some opinions along these lines.

Why aren't there any more prophets?

Do we just not listen anymore, or did God stop speaking directly to us?

Can't wait to see what you all think.


It is interesting that you begin by making notice of regular type people walking the streets, apparently talking to themselves, as it can be likened to the walk that Jesus took while he was here in physical form. There were no TV's, radios, internet, etc. to preach the word of gospel to the masses - the disciples of God spoke to everyone they came in contact with about the love of God and its availability to everyone as a way of salvation. Is it so hard to believe that His word is still being passed along in the same manner?

I find it a little disturbing that people are always looking for the "ONE" [a human being] who will have the panacea of answers that they're seeking. Perhaps it is a tad optimistic of me; however, I believe that if you have a strong personal relationship with God, minister [not preach, there is a difference] to those people who cross your path on a daily basis, follow His laws as best as you're able to [being the sinful humans we are..], then it is less important who might or might not be a "prophet" in this time - then it is that you're walking the walk and not just talking to talk.

IMHO

Thier is no Divine judgement?

What does this mean?

Rev 20:12-15
12 And I saw the dead, small and great, standing before Yahweh, and books were opened. And another book was opened, which is the Book of Life. And the dead were judged according to their works, by the things which were written in the books. 13 The sea gave up the dead who were in it, and Death and Hades delivered up the dead who were in them. And they were judged, each one according to his works. 14 Then Death and Hades were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. 15 And anyone not found written in the Book of Life was cast into the lake of fire.
Shalom...Miles

I haven't disputed anything. I was just asking where you get your information. Have you bothered to read the old testament to find out what it says about the validity of those claims?

You can only be sinful if the word carries weight or meaning in your life. No, not all humans are sinful because not all humans choose to follow the Christian faith. The word, "sin" is not worth the paper its printed on (or the electronic medium its typed under)
