The Messiah Has Arrived?

If a 24 year old Jewish man from a synagogue in NYC made the headlines for making the blind see, curing cancer with the touch of his hands, turning the Statue of Liberty to red by pointing his finger, and finally CNN follows him to a funeral home where he makes someone walk out of a casket and then he tells the world during this telecast that he is the Messiah, would you believe that he is indeed the Messiah?

We're all capable of doing those things. It's all just a matter of perception.

I don't think any human being, however, can make a dead person walk out of a casket. It would be impossible.

That's just your perspective. We can't really know what's right or wrong, possible or impossible.

Haven't you been watching the Walking Dead?

Ah ha, but can he turn horse balls into lemons? That's the acid test for the real Messiah. The U.K's Parliamentary House of Lords is crammed with the walking dead, so no big deal in having just one stiff coming out of their coffin doing hand springs. You forgot to mention that when he pointing towards the Statue of Liberty his illusionist accomplice was working hidden arch lights. The blind man report was a spelling mistake and should have read, he enabled a blind man to pee. Again the cancer report was misrepresented and should have been' cured a sick dancer.

But bringing a person back to life is something impossible.

If a man can make someone walk out of a casket, then those who have doubts would believe. No illusionist/magician could do a miracle.

No it isn't plenty of doctors have done it.

It would obviously be an imposter, there is one Messiah, Jesus.

It would obviously be an imposter, there is one Messiah, Jesus. He claimed to be the Messiah and people believed Him because of the miracles He did. Then they thought they were wrong when He was crucified...they had expected Him to establish God's Kingdom on Earth with His throne on Mt. Zion. Then they again believed He is the Messiah after He came out of the tomb that was sealed and guarded by Roman soldiers and showed Himself alive with the nail holes in His hands and feet, and the hole in his side from the spear.

He was seen alive of over 500 at one time, He appeared to many smaller groups after appearing first to some and then to all of His 11 chosen disciples. Because He conquered death, His followers cannot be stopped by death and will endure whatever tortures and executions are put on them by those who hate God and do not want His Messiah to rule over them.

He's coming back, and this time it will be in power and glory to rule the Earth. The first time He came as the Messiah He came as the Lamb of God slain from before the world was formed as payment for man's sins so man could be redeemed from Hell. The second time, He's coming as the Messiah, the KING OF KINGS and LORD of Lords and He will rule. If they won't repent and believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and be saved from Hell before they finalize their destination in death, all the God-hater anti-Christs who say God is cruel and does not care because He allows suffering to continue today will find their place in Hell and never see the glory of God's creation restored to what He intended it to be before we rebelled against Him in our Earthly father, Adam.

You, forgiven, will know Jesus as your Messiah whose life's blood paid for and covers your sins or, unforgiven, you will know Him as your Judge whose life's blood is on your hands and trampled under your feet with all your sins exposed as blood-guiltiness for the slaying of the Lamb of God who gave Himself willingly to pay for your sins against God but you rejected Him and chose rather to suffer your own consequences. Every knee shall bow to Him, in heaven or in Hell, and every tongue shall say Jesus Christ is Lord...willingly or unwillingly, God will get the glory He deserves for creating you.

"He quoted my words and then twisted them into saying something I did not say. In his version of what my words actually say, he left out the word "if" and said I called the site small minded. You are supporting a liar who twisted things to slander me and I have to believe he did it purposely knowing exactly what he was doing because he refused to admit what he did.

You got banned and lost my appreciation because it seems you only approach me with an attitude of superiority even to the point of supporting an anti-Christ liar like this clown."

Good to know that anyone who supports you is an anti-Christ.

Thanks for proving my point that you just use your religion as an excuse to build up a superiority complex and attack others.

I doubt Jesus would be a fan :)
