I find it extremely interesting watching the news with the purpose of trying to see how the Bible prophecies happen. It is true that we can't always - or even mostly -see how things will come about, but as all the former prophecies that have already been fulfilled have demonstrated, we can be...
The Churches, and this "begotten" issue
Now, as to the discussion regarding this "begotten" in Christendom, it began with a person who believes that Jesus is God, asking me if I thought Jesus was created because of the use of "begotten". I answered yes, although this isn't the only reason, and...

In these two articles, we'll look at the statement of being "only begotten". It is written in many Bibles, and has had both representatives of Islam and Christendom comment on it, relating to Jesus, as to who he is or isn't.
Firstly, no wonder Deedat had such fun with this word, due to the...

So, I was "quizzed" the other day by one of my chat friends, stating that I'd claimed that the King James Bible is translated from earlier English bibles".
My response was "Correct".
Sadly, I was accused of lying. So I went instead to an encyclopedia article, to show that it isn't me making it...
It has been used often in arguments by some who have heard things about the Bible, that dinosaurs are not mentioned in it.
Well, that's not accurate. Why not?
Because, although the Bible isn't an archaeological, nor a biological or zoological dictionary/encyclopedia, it does indeed mention...
A person today claimed that Micah 5:2 proves that Jesus is God, because they stated that it 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...

So, we're told in the Bible that Jesus learned obedience from the things he suffered. (Hebrews 5:8-9)
Based on this then, if Jesus was God, which is a claim by some, there are some questions.
1) Who was Jesus learning to be obedient to, if he was God?
2) How was Jesus learning, if he was God...
The heading here is a quote from the Bible. It is Paul telling his anointed brothers - brothers of Christ - that they should consider Jesus, who was considered an apostle and high priest. (Hebrews 3:1)
Based on this, let's ask a few questions, and hopefully get some answers.
1) If Jesus is...
