Dan; you could actually look it up for yourself; it's in Strong's Concordance! Pierced - Psalm 22:16 #738 Arei or Aryeh [Aleph Resh Yode] from #717 Arah [Aleph Resh He]. Virgin - Isaiah 7:14 #5959 'Almah [Ayin Lamed Mem He] (fem. form of #5958 'Alam [Ayin Lamed Mem]); a lass (as veiled or private); damsel, maid, virgin. You can study day and night, but will never know if you're not of the truth.
Wow, A Disciple, I have never heard that before. Could you kindly give me the Hebrew letters spelling of this word 'araw' so I could look into it. Many thanks. Anything to say on virgin of Isaiah 7:14?
I would say that Mark D has a point. Isn't there a problem also with the virgin of Isaiah 7:14?
A disciple - you are not answering satisfactorily - how far can the 'spirit' go and who possesses it?
God calls many, who after prove unworthy, and end up doing and causing very much evil. King Saul ended up being an enemy and persecutor, and caused civil war in Israel, because of his envy of David. Ahaz ended up being the one who called the Assyrians for help; which ultimately destroyed and carried away captive the whole Northern kingdom. Apostates and hypocrites are the worst traitors!
The reason the Jews didn't/don't believe in Jesus is because of the same idea His apostles had in Acts 1:6. The Jewish nation is still looking for the restoration of the old boundaries of Israel to be in control of the Jewish nation. They never understood because they wanted what they wanted - not God's will, in their lives. We are to PRAY for Jerusalem ........
I agree that the words spoken by Isaiah concerning the conception of Christ was not a prophesy. It truly was a sign for King Ahaz. The whole idea was to strengthened his faith.
He was trusting man for something he should have, all along trusted God for.
To here these words concerning a virgin conceiving and believing that God will make that happen, Should have an impacted his faith in God.
There is only One God and Saviour Isaiah 45 who was born Christ and called Immanuel God with us. God the Holy Spirit, His Spirit the Spirit who sends? Christ and who is God we must know we were told by John the one Jesus loved told us and the WORD WAS GOD! And John said He, Christ created All things. Now we know who said let us create man in OUR Image He didn't leave Himself out when speaking 2 us
Irene123 Right. Isaiah 45:21,22 God tells us there is only One God and He is the Saviour. Isaiah 7:14 God came and was born through woman because Immanuel translates God with us. John chapter 1:1,2,3 Christ the Word is God Creator of all things. I think that the Holy of God who listened from above to the flesh of God in the garden is One being they join together in the Revelation at the end.
Isaiah 7:14 is not, I repeat, is not, a prophesy of Jesus. If you bothered to read the previous verses, you would see that this is a sign to King Ahaz of Judah. There were other nations that wanted to invade Judah. God gave the sign of the birth of a child to show Ahaz that God was with him. King Ahaz ruled from 732-716. Jesus was never called Immanuel by anyone. Do some research.
The peoples broken it, it's the people's that have to fix it. God has given us all power it is up to us to believe, nobody can do that except ourself through the power of God we our greated in his image. Through the power of the water and the blood which Christ has offered for a final otonement for the sin of all Man. We have access to that blood by believing in him repenting of our sin and being baptized into his death and having our sins washed away which in turn adds you to the body Acts chapter two read whole chapter God is very Clear Amen I say Amen what will you choose!!!
Take thy son as well. How important it is for the youth of our generation to spend time with their fathers. Time spent not only in fellowship but in service. To often our youth run amuck raised by who knows and then weeping as they stray. Yes their is fear involved and from the human view even danger. How great an example Isaiah set for his son in this instant. His son saw first hand his fathers courage, devotion to God, willingness to serve, faith and etc. Would our children see such in our fathers of today.
God will always find a way to send his one and only Son to us. God had commanded this to Mary to concieve a Son and called him Immanuel and that is Jesus sent to us to be saved. Mother Mary was very obedient and follow and obey God 's word that it will be done according to God 's word. God stretch his power to Mary and Joseph and sealed with protection and love. John 3:16 For God so love the world that he gave his only begotten Son that whosoever believe in him will not be perish but have an eternal life and will be saved. Thanks be to God for his love and mercy for us. Jesus loves u and me.
The sign is that a virgin will conceive and bear a son : and His name is Immanuel : That is : God with us. Simple as that. What ridicule and mockery Mary and Joseph suffered. They believed God.
God 's kingdom is not from this world but in heaven. God sent his only Son Jesus Christ to bring his word to us to be saved. His words are true and pure he who hear his voice will be saved. We must obey his words and commandments that he has given as this is our heavenly manna. Jesus came down to manifest in humanity in order for us to understand and believe that there is God who is above all. Jesus fullfilled the scriptures for us to be save from the works of the defeated enemy. We must keep thanking Jesus for everything he has done to our daily lives. He is worthy to be praised. Jesus loves you, he only wants us to believe in him
As long as we the children of God still live in this planet earth there is bound to be troubles from our arch enemy the devil and his agents that are surrounding us. But whenever such situation arises do not allow fear to overcome you, rather listen attentively to what God has to say concerning that situation. Because Him alone has the final say and not the devil.
We need to watch verse 9 that says if ye believe not ye shall not be established. We need to believe and trust in God 's word or voice otherwise our trust and mis guide will destroy us.
