Isaiah 6 Discussion
I have been interested in Isaiah 6 for some time, and I have gradually formed an opinion on many of the features of this chapter. I attended a home study class in my early 20’s and a number of different speakers gave an exposition of a chapter each evening. There was a...
Greetings again David,
A main part of your claim on Exodus 3:14 is based upon your understanding of John 8:58. I have stated in brief my different view of John 8:58. Abraham understood God as EL Shaddai and as the Most High El or Power. Referring to Exodus 6:1-8, what additional information is...
Greetings again Yeshua888,
I am not willing to discuss what you have written here. Jesus IS given the title "God" in various passages and each passage must be carefully considered. As far as the title "God" is concerned one of the exercises that our Young People's Class was given over 60 years...
Greetings again Yeshua888,
I do not accept the term "God the Son" as I believe in Sola Scriptura and this term does not appear in the Bible. I use the term that Jesus is the Son of God. Possibly the following may answer your question.
The Yahweh Name The Fulfilment in our Lord Jesus Christ
The...
Greetings David,
I appreciate your thorough two Posts, but I continue to hold on to the future tense in Exodus 3:14 mainly because of the context and partly out of my respect for the scholars who give the future tense, and I have only mentioned a few of these. Have you looked at the entry for...
Greetings Yeshua888,
I appreciate the information. I decided to look at the two Bible versions between Tyndale and the KJV. Both the Geneva Bible of 1560 and the Bishop's Bible of 1568 have rendered Exodus 3:14 with the present tense "I AM". Perhaps the KJV was only copying these, rather than...
The Yahweh Name: Additional Consideration of the Future Tense
As mentioned in the previous post the KJV translates Exodus 3:14 with the present tense “I AM” and this appears to be a deliberate change of Tyndales’ future tense “I wilbe” or “I will be”. I am not aware if there is documentation of...
The Yahweh Name: Initial Declaration and Fulfilment
The following is a consideration of the Yahweh Name that was revealed in Exodus 3:14. It is hoped that the following comments will help to explain some of the language of both the OT and NT and the true role of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of...

The King's Son
1 Give the king thy judgments, O God, and thy righteousness unto the king’s son.
2 He shall judge thy people with righteousness, and thy poor with judgment.

Greetings again David,
I am not demanding that readers accept my personal assessment on this. I would be very happy if readers become aware of these two passages, and mainly because of this thread aware of the detail that I have quoted from Ezekiel 38. Having a partial understanding of both...
Greetings again David,
That is reasonably good advice and each of us are entitled to gradually put together the pieces and decide on some tentative sequence of events. Because of the difficulty we should be always ready to adjust as other explanations are given and sometimes also adjust as some...
Greetings again David,
I appreciate your clear assessment. I have seen some scholars that have attempted to identify the "Rosh" (RV, ASV, NASB) as the ancient name for Russia.
Yes, and although there is some similarity of events at the end of the 1000 years, I suggest that the following and...
Greetings Yesua888,
Fair enough. Possibly difficult on an i-Phone. For those who are familiar with the Servant Songs, I could have simplified the Post by stating the references, or even stated "The Servant Songs" of Isaiah. Your Post on the Ezekiel 38 thread is rather lengthy and does not seem...
Greetings David,
I agree with this standard. I was mainly responding to what Ezekiel 38 actually states, and was speaking against the SDA view on Ezekiel 38 represented by the comments by @Hobie
Ezekiel 38 depicts an invasion of the Land of Israel headed up by a northern nation and I have a...
Greetings David,
I appreciate your response and precise comments. Yes I agree that it depicts an ideal, the righteous, but Jesus is the only one who would completely fulfill this ideal. This ideal to be ultimately fully revealed in Jesus is anticipated in other OT prophecies. Perhaps you would...
Greetings Hobie,
Not very difficult at all. I hold the view that Ezekiel 38 depicts events soon to occur and that it seems that the NASB rendition "Prince of Rosh" represents Russia. Your article does not mention this alternate reading, also given in the RV and ASV. Ezekiel 38 depicts the...
A Few Thoughts on Psalm 1
This is an impressive Psalm and is an introduction to the Book of Psalms. Two sets of people and two ways are revealed, summed up in the last verse, the way of the ungodly and the way of the righteous. The righteous class are introduced in the first phrase, but it is...
The Bible is not on trial. Man is. Jesus said, “the scripture cannot be broken” ~John 10:35. God’s Word does not bow before modern skepticism. It exposes the heart and stands forever. The question is not whether Scripture will stand. It will. The question is whether we will stand with it.
When God warns you, don’t brush it off. Answer Him while you still can, because a hardened heart doesn’t stay neutral, it moves toward judgment. Scripture is clear: “Today if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts” ~Hebrews 3:15, and again, “He, that being often reproved hardeneth his neck, shall suddenly be destroyed, and that without remedy” ~Proverbs 29:1.
