What are you on about?
I am asking a question, you are using oil to rub my face?

That is not my belief, I am asking him to tell me where he got the idea from? And for your information, Judaism is different from Christianity.....
God didn't ordain any religion called Judaism or religion!
In fact, no Prophet brought Judaism or Christianity as a religion!
They were all coined by people!

So saying Judaism is different from Christianity makes me think the God of the Old Testament is different from that of the New Testament!

It's so simple for you to understand if you put everything Jesus Christ told you together and not just elevate one verse. The ministry of Jesus Christ began with the Jews hence the Jews were the masters, it then spread to the gentiles.
At first he asked his disciples to preach only to the Jews but later instructed that they preach to all nations. Does this explain it now?
Where did you even see Jesus preaching to the Canaanite woman? You are just answering a different question here!

The woman asked Jesus for healing o!

The disciples talk say make he chase her away!

In the end he called her dog and Israel master!

Open your eyes!


Discuss these verses!

Who are the masters?
Who are the dogs?
Why Israel?


Matthew 15:21-28
21 Leaving that place, Jesus withdrew to the region of Tyre and Sidon. 22 A Canaanite woman from that vicinity came to him, crying out, “Lord, Son of David, have mercy on me! My daughter is demon-possessed and suffering terribly.”

23 Jesus did not answer a word. So his disciples came to him and urged him, “Send her away, for she keeps crying out after us.”

24 He answered, “I was sent only to the lost sheep of Israel.”

25 The woman came and knelt before him. “Lord, help me!” she said.

26 He replied, “It is not right to take the children’s bread and toss it to the dogs.”

27 “Yes it is, Lord,” she said. “Even the dogs eat the crumbs that fall from their master’s table.”

From the mouth of YHWH and Jesus Christ of Israel, it is revealed that their teachings belonged only to the bloodline of Jacob -- the Israelites. I don't care for your religious spin since the God of Israel and Jesus Christ of Israel never established nor gave religion to men. undecided
I also do not care about whatever conclusions you have been misled to arrive at.
Your belief will lead you to wherever it must inevitably lead you….either Heaven or Hell.
That would have been the choice you made with wide open eyes and a supposedly functional brain between your ears! cool cool

So Jesus is not human? Ok that's new to me. He is now a lamb....the offspring of a sheep. Ok..no wahala, even if he is a lamb and not a human being, the sacrifice still has to be performed by a levitical priest, not Roman soldiers. There are so many problems with this Jesus sacrifice....so many that goes against the laws and commandments of the creator.....
I am so glad I left it more than 20 years ago ...
Go school, you no gree
Use your Internet to Google search, you said no, na whatsapp status you go dey watch up n down

The high priest sacrificed himself, you still dey find another....lolz reminds me of some saying Jesus no be Christian when he's the Christ others are following. You can't box him to a corner

Jesus is our High priest. Jesus was also the Lamb that was sacrificed

John the baptist talking....
Jn 1:29-30
29 The next day John saw Jesus coming toward him and said, “Look, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world! 30 This is the one I meant when I said, ‘A man who comes after me has surpassed me because he was before me

Jn 10:17-18

Jesus talking....

17 The reason my Father loves me is that I lay down my life—only to take it up again. 18 No one takes it from me, but I lay it down of my own accord. I have authority to lay it down and authority to take it up again. This command I received from my Father.”

Jesus is......

A teacher

A prophet

A high priest

A lion of the tribe of Judah

The lamb of God

The Lord

The light of the world

The Messiah

The son of God

All those nomenclature n more have scriptural backing

even historians who anti Christianity cannot deny the historicity of Christ. The writers of the gospels are not unknown they are Mathew mark Luke and John.
So Jesus is not a myth after all, right? You guys are in deep trouble.
No one is arguing Jesus didn't exist, it's basically a fact and consensus about 80yrs old, what is also a fact is my previous statement, there's zero evidence for any of the supernatural claims about him and like other historical figures - see Alexander who was claimed to be the son of Zeus - all of the supernatural claims are basically mythlogical which is a fact. If they're not provide evidence they happened which obviously you can't.

As for your gospel claim that the writers are known, if they're known it wouldn't be difficult to identify the names of the authors within the texts as Matthew, Mark, Luke and John right. So pls show us where within the texts the authors Matthew, Mark, Luke & John, identify themselves or any evidence they wrote it. Again, obviously you can't. End of story.

And to properly kill off that baseless assertion of known writers, how did poor stark illiterate peasants who spoke Aramaic in a time period where the literacy rate was less than 2% somehow manage to write in sophisticated greek and chose not to write in Aramaic or say Hebrew, more than 50 years after. Empty claims lol!

Again, I am trying to understand your point here. Yes, the Jews were the masters and the Gentiles the dogs in that analogy, but then, I presented you with other verses where Christ commanded that his gospel be preached to the Gentiles (The Dog). I also showed you verses where Christ came for the world, not for the Jews (remember John 3.16).

So yes, Jesus Christ called the gentile woman a dog, yet he still extended his gospel to the gentiles. Does this answer your question now?

I am wide awake at this point in my day.🤔

Anyways, the woman initially asked for mercy that was the son of David...and it was this that caused Jesus Christ of Israel to initially ignore her given that YHWH's mercy via the son of David belonged only to the Lost Sheep of Israel. It was after this was revealed that the woman then revealed that what she sought was instead the crumbs that fell from the master's table as his children ate of His mercy for them. undecided

Arda1000:
are you still living in 18th century?
We have gotten rid of the catholic calendar bro it’s now BCE not BC
BCE dates align exactly with BC dates and were just introduced as a more inclusive/ religiously neutral way to denote dates.Many religious organisations still refer to BC/AD by the way. The naming convention is still very much in use.

Ironically, the gregorian calendar widely used today was established by the catholic church and won't change anytime soon.

Then those are either contradictions or one is wrong while the other is right!

1. Jesus said he was sent only to the lost sheep of Israel.

2. That Christ said the Gospel be preached to the Gentiles does not mean he was sent to them!

3. Jesus's world is only Israel.

Matthew 10:5-6
These twelve Jesus sent out with the following instructions: “Do not go onto the road of the Gentiles or enter any town of the Samaritans. 6Go rather to the lost sheep of Israel.

2. Matthew 15:24......Jesus answered, “I was sent only to the lost sheep of Israel.”

I see zero contradictions. It's so easy to understand.
Yes Jesus began his ministry exclusively with the Jews hence he sent his disciples only to the lost sheep of Israel as recorded but at the end of his ministry, he sent his disciples to all nations how is that a controversy.
Matthew 28:19
Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:

Please explain the controversy.

He also said
John 10:16
And other sheep I have, which are not of this fold: them also I must bring, and they shall hear my voice; and there shall be one fold, and one shepherd.

Being called Dog or sheep is not the issue!

How about Masters to dogs as a connotation for Israel to Gentiles?

This is a big wild discrimination!

1. So what is? huh

2. You are mistaken here since Gentiles — as used in Israelite Scripture — was used in reference to Israelites(of Jacobian bloodline) who no longer lived or had a home in their homeland. undecided

3. If you instead meant non-Israelites, then you are wrong since Israelites are not Masters over non-Israelites. The connotation is invalid. The master's children aren't themselves masters— they are His Servants. undecided

Stop lying! All of the Gospels, including the supposed writings of Paul, were written in the 1st Century CE.

2. Stop lying! undecided

3. When exactly did the Jews get around to seeing the Gospels and laughing their heads off? Please be specific! Was this before or after the Romans eliminated about 1/3rd of the Jewish population, and exiled another third before taking over Jerusalem and remaining the entire country to Syria and Palestine in 134 AD? undecided

None of the gospel was written in the first century. None
If they were, they would not have gotten the geography wrong.
And I still maintain that they were not written by Jews. Any Jews, should have known that the sanhendrin don't meet during the holy days and at night. Just like we know our supreme court don't meet during national holy days and again, they have the power and right to condemn a man to death....there was no need for the pilate to and fro......some many incontinence, for it to originate from the Jews. And moreover, they already have their Torah, why risk the wrath of God to create, another religion. Their Torah was for ever. God told them to pass it on to their children. To many reasons.....
The isrealites saw the mistranslation of Isaiah 7:14, as a prophecy for Jesus, they laughed hard. The passage is a reference to Isaiah Young wife and not a prophecy for Jesus. They know the real prophecy was in verse 16. Too many lies and mistranslation..

I don't deal with believes or emotion.
The Jesus portrayed in the gospel never never existed. For once, the Jews don't have the idea of god mating with women. It is a Greek/Roman theology. The Jewish Messiah is a man from the line of David, through Solomon. The two contradictory genealogies in Mathew and Luke can never produce a Messiah. The real Messiah is not coming to die for sins, God already gave them a solution to the problem of sin. He is coming to bring peace....

And I couldn't care less for your theological gish gallop, they're all nonsense and baseless mythology as far as I'm concerned, Jewish and Christain alike. Non of that speaks to the FACT he existed, believing or denying it wouldn't change a general and academic consensus older than 80yrs. You might want to get to writing your paper backed by evidence to change it, so we adopt yours as the new consensus and fact. No?!
