Biblelogic.com Question: About the Serpent Being or Satan? Hachash!!! Coming across your site I found interesting topics as are there in many other sites. You mentioned this Nachash creature which I take as an assumption not a fact. Any way assuming this assumption. You said that Adam did not find one comparable to him physically which is correct. Which is why Yah created Eve for him which I am sure was part of Yah’s plan all along. Then Adam said "this is flesh of my flesh bone of my bone." No question Adam had found one of his kind as a specie.
You mentioned this nachash exists today still but don’t know what they look like, yet you said they are a "race" of people. What a contradiction! This is that you plainly make. These are your own words which I read. How can they be a race of cunning deceptive race of people, which they have to be in order to be deceive the "Adamic race" which Adam himself did not recognized as created being such as himself. So you say they are mixed with the rest of humanity but don't know what they look like but they are not humanlike. I mean do you see my point of the illogic that I am reading as a reader?
You are making an assumption as a basis for your theology which I have read leads to the rest of your story of creation. This is supposed to be an enlightment site where one could go for real food, you said. While I whole-heartly attest to what I think is your heartfelt intention and you do have valuable information, I am sorry but at some point I just got to throw arms down for Yah to come to the rescue today right now.

Question: On your website you claim that the book entitled "James" in the New testament is a mistake and that the book's actual title is "Jacob." Why then has it been widely believed and supported by scholars that the author was James, the son of Joseph, Jesus' earthly father? If the book was, in fact, written by "Jacob," who was he? What was his role in the early church and why isn't he mentioned anywhere else?

Question: From: fluffmuppet Sent: Friday, June 25, 2004 12:27 PM Subject: Jesus not a Jew. Are you serious about Jesus not being a Jew? The article I just read on your site is misleading, perhaps that is the way you want it to be? Middle English Jeu, from Old French giu, from Latin Idaeus, from Greek Ioudaios, from Aramaic yhudy, from Hebrew yhûdî, inhabitant of Judah, from yhûdâ. Jesus was a 'Judean', not a Jew. Is an OXYMORON!
However wrote that ridiculous article is a FRAUD and makes you look like a bunch of fools for believing it... Or perhaps that is exactly what you are! -concerned CHRISTIAN

Question: The Holy Spirit is referred to as "Lord" in 2 Thessalonians 3:5. There are only two other choices who the Lord can refer to. That is either the Father or the Son. It can't refer to the Father for that would mean that Paul wrote "May the Father direct your hearts to the love of the Father." That seems odd. If that was his intention he would have written "May the Father direct your hearts to His love." It can't refer to the Son for that would be saying "May Christ direct your hearts to the steadfastness of Christ." Again that is odd and not Paul's literary style. If some other name was in the sentence besides Lord would anyone deny that a third party was in view? For example what if the text read "May Tom direct your hearts to the love of God and the steadfastness of Christ." Who would deny that Tom is distinct from God and Christ? Therefore the Lord refers to the Holy Spirit.

Question: We all agree that the Egyptians were/are black, correct? Scholars have proven this thru extended research. We all know the story of Joseph, correct? If the Egyptians were people of color - say black, then why weren't Joseph's brothers able to recognize him when they encountered him? If Israelites are reddish or rosy in color, then wouldn't Joseph have stood out amongst the Egyptians to his brothers? Wouldn't it have been overwhelming to them to see a reddish colored Pharaoh?

Question: Much of your statements are good, yet why is it written in Acts 16:6-7, calling the Holy Spirit the same as the spirit of Jesus. Please don't tell me they are two different spirits functioning within two sentences of one other written by Luke. This is the same spirit working here. And what about John 20:28 where Thomas calls Jesus his lord and his God.

Comment: I don't put too much stock in your contention of what the Lord's name is in the original language. I think He knows when I'm talking to Him. - Rich

Question: Your definition of the word "evil" is simply "bad." My Hebrew dictionary suggests various meanings such as afflict and punish. How do we know that evil always means bad and/or wicked? I think our children, especially my step-daughter, thought we were evil when we made her work. Was that bad? And didn't YAHWEH often chastise those he loved? Was that wicked or maybe just consequences for going their own way? Just a question???

Question: It was stated in the study on "The King of Tyre" that no mention was made of Satan in the books of Moses. I am of the understanding that Moses was responsible for writing the book of Job also. Job was likely written before the Torah when Moses was a shepherd. Whether this is important or not does not make much difference. But there is plenty of mention of Satan in the first chapters of Job. We just have to assume that Satan was involved in Eve's fall too. Since YAHWEH'S animal creation cannot carry on conversations without supernatural possession, who was speaking through the serpent in Genesis 3?

Question: I John 3:8 was mentioned in your document "Yahweh and Satan" as the proof that Satan has always sinned. When was the beginning? Genesis 1:1 says that the beginning was the creation of this world? That was just a few thousand years ago. Did not YAHWEH and angels exist before then?

Question: I recently came across your web site. I find your material interesting and worthy of further consideration. With regards to one of your issues, I have a couple of questions for you. The first pertains to the use of the name of the Creator in the Greek Scriptures. Why, if the original manuscripts (which are not available now) contained the Tetragrammaton (and this is speculation), do none of the extant copies also contain it? Why would the Creator have allowed so many copies of His Word to go out in this way without His Name in them? Incidentally, I would not argue with you that the use of the word Kyrios or Lord is confusing when one is trying to determine whether the allusion is to The Almighty or to Yashuah/Jesus. The second question relates to the name of the Messiah, Yashuah in Aramaic and the transliteration of his name into Greek. If the names of other people, for example the Apostles, are all Hellenized in the Greek scriptures, and subsequently used as such by all Christians, why not the name of the Messiah? Alternatively for consistency, the names of other characters in the narrative such as Peter, Judas, Matthew etc. should also be kept in the original language.

Question: What is the correct teaching of tithes and offerings as in reference for us today and what church if any (I'm a baptist) is good because your web site has opened my eyes about searching for truth, because I'm always telling God Yahweh and calling God Yahweh is feels truthful if you know what I mean.
