Christianity Etc › Re: Why You Should Do All You Can, Not To Go To Hell Fire by TenQ: 9:22pm On Sep 22
Truthseeker10:
Explain what the spirit is using the bible verse in the screenshot below.
Truthseeker10:
Explain Ecclesiastics 12:7 below.

King James Bible
Then shall the dust return to the earth as it was: and the spirit shall return unto God who gave it.
His thoughts perish because he cannot achieve ANY PLANS he has made!

Both Abraham's bossom and Hell are WITH God in the context of in a Place Prepared by God.

Thus, the spirit is relocated from this world into the PLACE prepared by God.

In human terms, you are recalled back to the Headquarters without your physical body for your debriefing
LOL!




Let me ask you a question:
1. Are you with or not with God in His House as described by Jesus after Resurrection?

John 14:2-3:
"In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you to myself; that where I am, there you may be also."


2. What do you think this scripture mean?

Rom 11:29:
"For the gifts and calling of God are without repentance."

1. Give me instances of those healings your god did
I am a good example
My late uncle who was blind is another

jaephoenix:
2. Yet same god says in the bible that WE SHOULD PRAY FOR ANYTHING
We tell God about EVERYTHING!
The good , the bad and the ugly!!

jaephoenix:
So despite all the prayers,Yhwh cannot fix Nigeria
Also you said your prayers work,yet hopsitals in Nigeria witness many deaths after operations where prayers are offered but advanced countries where surgeons rarely pray before ops have better outcomes. Make it make sense
It is neither God's duty to fix Nigeria
NOR
His duty to fix Nigerian hospitals.

We reap only what we have sown!

Do you cleanup your teenage children's room for them or you tell them to clean it up?


jaephoenix:
3. Copying stuff from Google or chatgpt doesnt take the place of professionals. Read what I typed. I explained how their sight works. Their sights are not complete like when they are 3 or 4 months
And I wonder why you asked this question in the first place
Agreed sight not perfect BUT they aren't blind!
That was why I used the cinematic camera as an example


jaephoenix:
4. Evolution simply talks about how humans change. It doesnt talk about atoms
There are many instances of evolution which happens in humans and animals
Example is our ppendix,tails,wisdom tooth etc. Those organs evolved
But there was a time when there was no life but atoms amd molecules isn't it.

This is the frontier I wanted you to push towards.

jaephoenix:
So you have twisted the narration to Yhwh doesnt keep from dying? Don't you christians disturb us with 'testimonies' how your god saved your asses from death? Why turn it around now?
Yes, because God heals!
But we know that God doesn't stop all deaths!



jaephoenix:
The mortality rates in Nigeria is far higher than those countries you listed,in every age group both under 5,maternal,fetal and geriatric mortalities. Dont even go there
Even the life expectancy of Nigeria is low compared to them. We have life expectancy of 54 years while they have up to 90 years.
So park well with your useless prayers
Mortality is high because God intended us to use herbs and technology for solving our problems and not just prayers!
AND
Nigeria is not only technically backward, it is corrupt!

Thus, we are reaping exactly what we have planted.



jaephoenix:
The human eye cannot comprehend visual impulses. Meaning that the brain isnt specialized enough to interprete visual cues even though the baby is 'seeing'. So in all intents and purposes, they are blind. There are many organs that start growing in the womb but are still 'useless' at birth like genitals etc. In fact the brain keeps on growing after birth to accommodate more visual cues
No, babies are not born blind. Healthy newborns can see at birth, but their vision is very blurry, limited in range, and mostly in black, white, and shades of gray.

The point is that the eyes and the brain seem to have EVERYTHING it needs for proper sight irrespective of if the eyes "mature" through use or not.

I think the babies eyes is like giving a Blackmagic URSA Mini Pro 12K cinematic camera to a novice: the production would be disappointing!

jaephoenix:
About evolution, its quite predictable up to a point. We cant 100% predict it
And evolution has nothing to do with big bang. I dont know what is your christians problem. Simply research basic concepts before engaging on them
You are not getting my point!

Evolution and big bang are not usually discussed in the same sentence. Evolution is discussed only AFTER the basic elementary DNA/RNA is set.

The theory of evolution traces life back to a last universal common ancestor with DNA/RNA-based genetics, a genetic code, ribosomes, and core metabolism that lived roughly about 2-4 billion years ago.

The theory assumes that the genetic codes continued to increase in size and complexity.

Atoms are the basic building block of everything. When did they combine enough with the right pattern to contain the right information we now call DNA/RNA/gene?


Every Useful Information must have these Five Parts
1. Information source : where the message originates.
2. An encoding of the message into some representational form,
3. A medium/platform to store or transmit that form,
4. A decoding mechanism that can reconstruct meaning, and
5. A target that can interpret and act on that meaning.


These definitely are not present in basic atoms or molecules however complex.
It is worse when you take it up to when no atom or molecule existed (just at big bang)







So, my question again:
How far can we project evolution?
Can we push it up to the atoms that make up molecules or to the big bang?

WHY?: It seems information written continuously continued to grow till the full DNA as we know it have grown.

jaephoenix:
So with all you have said,why is morbidity and mortality higher in Nigeria, a prayerful country than less prayerful countries like UK,US,NZ etc?
I thought u r smart TenQ but then you're a Christian....
Everyone must die through one means or the other.

BUT THEN
Who told you that it is God's job to prevent people from dying?
Except by mercy, when its your time, you go: prayer or no prayer.


By the way, using your own argument:
Why are there daily mortalities in the most advanced hospitals in UK, USA. Germany, France, NZ and China?







As a digression, I have a question!
I saw a video of a newborn baby. He came out with eyes opened and looking about the delivery ward (the lights seem too bright for it).

Then I wondered:
How did the eyes got prepared in 9 months for what wasn't needed in the womb (sight) but needed outside.


So, my question :
How far can we project evolution?
Is it up to the atoms that make up molecules or to the big bang?

WHY?: It seems information written continuously continued to grow till the full DNA as we know it have been developed.

I don't know what happened. Nairaland wouldn't allow me to post anything. Its not even about the length because it still wouldn't allow me post 1/4 of this post.


Back to the discussions,
I did NOT ask you to Believe that Jesus is YHWH, but I think it is academic honesty to say

"Yes. the Bible Appears to say that Jesus is YHWH wrt the book of Zachariah and the Book of John"

BUT,
Just as the Crucification of Jesus, the Bible says it BUT I don't believe it.


This is fairer to say rather than your current posture.

Pls define hellfire for me again. Maybe i don't understand.

I said the number one pain receptor. Hope you understand English sha
Hell: is a holding place for those who Reject the God of Abraham AND His Terms for Living on Earth. A person's Soul and Spirit exists in a Place without God's Love. The suffix "Fire" describes it as a place of discomfort and pain. Doesn't fire burn only physical things?

Jesus also called it the "Outer Darkness" a place of no hope!

Mat 8:12:
"But the children of the kingdom shall be cast out into outer darkness : there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth."

Lake of Fire: A final place of rejection of those who Reject the God of Abraham AND His Terms for Living on Earth. A person's Body, Soul and Spirit exists in a Place without God's Love in a place of torment and regret according to what they have sowed here on earth.

If you said: "the number one pain receptor" in the context of there would not be any skin to be tormented
THEN,
You missed it as there exists OTHER Pain Receptors unaccounted for in the Human Being.

The Soul can experience its own sense of pain. We don't even know if the spirit has pain receptors too.

Even Head Ache, Stomach Ache are from the body yet not from the skin

.....
......

And this is where your two later responses become revealing. The Adam argument remains unproved Your central objection is still:

Did Allah create Adam through physical formation and the giving of life, or through “Kun fayakūn” alone? That is a false dilemma.

Qur'an 3:59 itself gives both elements: Adam is created from dust, and Allah says Be, and he is. You supplied the word alone. The Qur'an does not.

It does not say Allah said Be; therefore no forming, shaping, proportioning, breathing of life, or other divine creative action occurred.

That is your premise. And the Qur'an elsewhere explicitly describes creation and shaping as sequential aspects of the creative act We created you, then We shaped you (7:11), while 15:28–29 and 38:71–72 describe creation from clay, proportioning, and the breathing of life.

So your repeated formulation physical action OR Kun fayakūn does not follow from the text. You have to establish why they are mutually exclusive.You have not.

Genesis does not establish your rule either

Genesis 2:7 says YHWH formed Adam from the dust and breathed life into him.
That establishes divine action. It does not establish Because God formed Adam, God therefore did not command Adam into existence.

Genesis 1:26 makes your categorical statement that Christians never describe humanity's creation through divine command even more difficult to sustain:
Then God said, Let us make man in our image.

Genesis can therefore contain divine speech concerning humanity and subsequently describe the manner in which Adam was formed.

That is precisely the distinction you refuse to permit in the Qur'anic account. Command does not logically exclude execution through a process.

Your bricklayer/potter analogy therefore misses the theological category. A human craftsman depends upon independently existing material. God is not a creature dependent upon an independent creation.

Your cup analogy proves only that you can manipulate existing clay and subsequently say Kun fayakūn. You did not create the clay. You did not create yourself. You did not create the physical laws governing the process. And your cup did not become a living human being.

So you have not reproduced the divine phenomenon you are trying to use as an analogy.

You have merely pronounced two Arabic words after manufacturing a cup.

The forty-year argument does not repair the contradiction

I did not deny that Islamic historical and exegetical literature contains reports describing Adam's body as remaining lifeless before receiving life.

But you cannot simply turn every later report into an unquestionable Qur'anic fact.

The specific transmission and grading of those reports have to be distinguished from the separate Sahih Muslim material concerning Adam's decree.

And even if I grant the forty-year report completely for the sake of argument, your conclusion still does not follow.

A period of formation before life would simply be a stage in a creative process.

It would not prove therefore Allah could not say Be.

Again, you need the missing premise that
Be excludes process. You have never established it.

Your two later responses also demonstrate the problem with the discussion's structure

At 10:09 p.m., instead of establishing why “Be” necessarily excludes divine action, you named a weak and false pottery analogy, the forty-year argument, and the assertion that YHWH created Adam personally.

At 12:11 a.m., you again returned to the Zechariah surface questions, then moved into the Masoretic Text, Jewish scholars, Trinity, Genesis 18–19, divine spatiality, the toilet analogy, and finally the Mi'raj.

The issue is not that every one of those subjects is illegitimate. The issue is that a new subject does not resolve an old unanswered premise. That is the structural problem here.

You began with one proposition Kun fayakūn is incompatible with a physical creative process. That proposition was challenged.

Instead of demonstrating the missing premise, the discussion keeps acquiring new branches. That is why I describe the pattern as a gish gallop not as an accusation about your motives, but as a description of the argumentative structure where more claims are being introduced faster than the disputed premises are being demonstrated.
Lots of grammar doesn't change the fact that you are trying to redefine Kunfayakun to mean something which is definitely NOT.

How do you scholars define Kunfayakun?
Confirm if I am WRONG?
1. Kun Faya Kun (Arabic: كُنْ فَيَكُونُ) is an Arabic phrase used in the Quran that translates to "Be, and it is." It represents the absolute power, sovereignty, and creative will of Allah.

In Islamic theology, it means that when Allah decides to create or manifest something, He does not need a process, time, or tools;

Allah simply wills it, and it immediately comes into existence.

2. Does it require any physical actions?
No, it requires absolutely no physical actions or efforts from Allah.
In Islamic belief, Allah is completely independent of His creation and transcendant above physical limitations. Human creation requires materials, time, and physical labor.

In contrast, Allah's creation through Kun Faya Kun requires only His divine will and command.

3. What are the Key Characteristics of Kun Faya Kun
a. Instantaneous: There is no delay between God’s decree and the manifestation of that reality.

b. Effortless: It does not involve physical tools, hands, energy expenditure, or materials.

c. Absolute Authority: Nothing can stop, alter, or delay what Allah has commanded to "be."



At this point, I can only refer you to a neutral Arbitrator!
IN ANY AI Chatbot of your choice input the following prompts

In not more than 40 words each be truthful and factual according to Islamic Theology
1. What is Kunfayakun?
2. Does Kunfayakun require any other input or physical actions other than the speech of Allah for its fulfilment?
3. What are the Key Characteristics of Kun Faya Kun?


I hope you would be honourable to show me the results!

Allah contradicted itself, Kunfayakun does NOT require ANY other input.






honesttalk21:
Volume does not become evidence merely by increasing. And your Mi'raj argument is precisely such a new branch

You introduced the questions about Muhammad pbuh, the prophets in their graves, resurrection, and Moses during the Mi'raj. But those were not questions I had previously asked you.

They are a new argument introduced by you. So I am not going to pretend they somehow answer the Adam question.

Even if your premises concerning Moses were all granted, you would still have to establish another proposition:

How does a question concerning the state or location of Moses establish that a human being possesses Allah's creative Kun fayakūn? It doesn't.

Being encountered somewhere is not creation. Presence is not creation.

A prophetic encounter is not creation.
And the existence of a theological question concerning Moses does not demonstrate that a human being can create by divine command.

It is another branch.
You forgot that younwerenthebone who digressed by bringing in (out previous post on other threads about the BODY, SOUL and SPIRIT of man.

All I did was to educate you and ask you a question ISLAMIC Theology couldn't explain.

That,
1. The prophets are supposed to be in their graves praying.
2. It is NOT yet the time of Resurrection
3. Mohammed would be the first human to be resurrected.

So, Explain how Mohammed spoke to Moses and Moses spoke to Mohammed in paradise. (Was there a temporal resurrection)?



honesttalk21:
The same applies to Genesis 18–19

You point to Genesis 19:24 and argue that YHWH on earth rains fire from YHWH in heaven. That is a textual observation worth discussing. But it does not automatically demonstrate the Trinity.

You still have to establish the theological inference. Likewise, the fact that Genesis describes YHWH appearing to Abraham and acting in relation to heaven does not by itself establish a later doctrine of three divine persons.

A biblical narrative and a developed theological formulation are not automatically identical propositions. And your spatial argument does not establish what you claim

“Can Allah enter the toilet?”

That is rhetoric, not demonstration.

Omnipresence is not simply the proposition that God occupies every location as a physical object occupies a room.

If you want to establish a contradiction between Islamic and Christian doctrines of divine presence, define the respective doctrines and demonstrate the incompatibility.

A provocative example does not do that work for you.

Your claim about Allah and YHWH likewise requires more than doctrinal difference. You argue YHWH is omnipresent. Allah is not. YHWH is Father. Allah is not. YHWH is Trinity. Allah is not. Therefore Allah and YHWH are different beings.

But that conclusion does not automatically follow from disagreement between two theological systems. Arabic-speaking Christians themselves use Allah for God. So the linguistic designation certainly cannot establish different identities.
It was a CHALLENGE to distinguish between Allah and YHWH.

1. YHWH can incarcerate as a human being if He chooses. Does Allah have the power to enter into a human flesh?
2. YHWH is everywhere including even Hell or the Toilet. Can Allah spatially be with you in your Toilet?

The Questions establish that they are not the SAME BEING!

No wonder, you cannot answer the questions.


honesttalk21:
Your Trump/Tinubu analogy proves only that two people can share a description without being identical. It does not prove the converse that If two theological systems attribute different properties to God, they must therefore refer to different beings.
1. President Bola Ahmed Tinubu can sign into Law the Acts of the Nigerian National Assembly?

Can President Donald Trump sign into Law the Acts of the Nigerian National Assembly? NO!

Conclusion: Bola Ahmed Tinubu and Donald Trump are NOT the same President nor the same Person.

Is this difficult to comprehend!?

YHWH and Allah are not the same IDENTITY no matter how strongly you wishnit to be.

honesttalk21:
That requires a separate argument.
And Trinity makes YHWH omnipresent is not a demonstration. You said Trinity is the superior explanation because it makes YHWH omnipresent, omnipotent and omniscient. But saying that does not demonstrate it.

Why is Trinity necessary for omnipresence?

Why could an absolutely transcendent, omnipotent God not be omnipresent without being tri-personal?

And if your argument depends upon Father, Son and Spirit being distributed across spatial locations, you need to defend that particular model rather than present it as though it were simply the definition of classical Trinitarian theology.

Again assertion is not demonstration.
Can you show from Islamic Theology that Allah is Spatially EVERYWHERE?

If you cannot, Allah is NOT Omnipresent.

YHWH can be spatially EVERYWHERE and simultaneously in Heaven and on the Earth: does Allah have this nature?

So, answer the question yourself as per which of the natures of YHWH or Allah that is superior.

Mohammed created a picture of Allah but crippled his nature unknowingly.

The Oneness of Allah is NOT different from the Oneness of Iblis!




honesttalk21:
The Masoretic argument requires evidence, not motive. You called the Masoretic reading a minor and recent Jewish variant created in opposition to Christianity.

That is a historical and textual claim. It therefore needs historical and textual evidence. Calling Jewish scholars hostile to Jesus does not establish that their textual reading is wrong.

If Rashi or Ibn Ezra gives a grammatical or contextual interpretation you reject, answer the interpretation.

Jewish scholars hate Jesus is not a rebuttal to Hebrew grammar. Nor does it establish that the Masoretic reading was fabricated to defeat Christianity.

You have to establish that historically. So let us apply your own standard consistently. You told me to speak truthfully to the text and not twist or turn away from its logical conclusion. Agreed.
Let me help you with Historical Facts. You probably didn't know that there are two sets of Masoretic texts of the Tanakh.


Putting the evidence in chronological order:
1. No Dead Sea scrolls fragment of Zechariah 12:10 → no direct help.

2. Old Greek (LXX) – 2nd–1st c. BCE translation: “look on me.”

3. Early Jewish tradition (Targum, rabbinic citations) – early centuries CE: “look unto Me.”

4. Vulgate – late 4th/early 5th c.: “look on me.”

5. Standard Masoretic Text (Aleppo, Leningrad, majority of MSS) – 9th–11th c.: “look on me.”

The only Difference
6. Minority Hebrew Masoretic (medieval) and some later Greek versions: “look on him.”
Date range: roughly 11th century and later (medieval period), with at least one clear example at AD 1105 (Codex Reuchlinianus).

This was done by those you appeal to, to avoid the difficulty of God being “pierced, ” some later Hebrew manuscripts were altered to:

“They shall look on him whom they have pierced.”


So, based on Historical evidence attested to EVEN by the Standard Masoretic Text , the correct statement is “They shall look on ME whom they have pierced.”


Sorry!

honesttalk21:
Then the same standard applies to your argument. The Qur'an describes Adam as created from dust. It describes creation and shaping. It describes proportioning and the giving of life. It also describes divine creative authority through Be, and he was. Nothing in those descriptions establishes that divine command excludes divine action.

You have asserted that exclusivity. You have not demonstrated it.

Likewise, Genesis 2:7 describes divine formation from dust and the giving of life. Genesis 1:26 contains divine speech concerning the making of humanity. So the existence of a creative process does not establish the absence of divine command.
I would like you to show where YHWH created Adam or Eve by a Command as it doesn't EXIST!
Every other thing in existence was created by YHWH's Command EXCEPT in the creation of Adam and Eve.

Allah contradicted himself. It cannot be from mud while using his hands AND by command.

Alright,
At what point EXA did Allah commanded Adam to BE?
a. After gathering the clay before molding Adam
b. After molding Adam
c. After drying Adam for Forty Days/Fourty Years
d. After breathing of his spirit into Adam



honesttalk21:
Your central contradiction therefore remains unproved. And on Zechariah, John 19 gives you a Christian interpretive connection between Jesus and the pierced figure.

Fine. But the argument still requires you to demonstrate the steps from:

Zechariah → Jesus → unique fulfillment → deity.

You cannot simply leap from the first proposition to the last and treat the intervening premises as self-proving.

That is exactly where the argument needs to be made.

Finally, this is why I am responding despite saying I was finished

I am not reopening every branch of the discussion. I am clarifying the record because your two subsequent responses have introduced the appearance of additional evidence without actually resolving the premises that were challenged.

The 10:09pm response did not establish why Be excludes process. The 12:11a.m response did not establish why the Zechariah connection to Jesus proves every subsequent Christological conclusion.

Instead, new issues were introduced—textual variants, Jewish interpretation, Trinity, Genesis 18–19, spatiality, Mi'raj and others.

That is precisely where debate can become a matter of accumulating objections rather than establishing conclusions.

So I will leave the matter at the point where the evidence actually leaves it:
You have not demonstrated that Kun fayakūn excludes divine creative process.
You have not demonstrated that physical formation therefore contradicts divine command. You have not demonstrated that the pottery analogy is comparable to divine creation.

And regarding Zechariah you have shown the Christian identification of Jesus with the pierced figure in John; you have not, merely by quoting John, demonstrated every premise required to turn that identification into a proof of Jesus' deity.

Those are the actual outstanding arguments. Not the number of new questions that can be added afterward.
Let the text carry the argument.

If the missing premises can be established from the Hebrew, Greek, Qur'anic and historical evidence, establish them. If they cannot, repeating the conclusion—or opening another branch—does not supply them.

That is the clarification I needed to put on record, and I will leave it there.
you think I expect you to ACCEPT the TRUTH when it is presented to you!?

If you cannot even stand by the truth with respect to your religious text, how do I expect you to stand by the truth when it comes to the Bible?



You problem is that I used the Bible to respond to you and its NOT my INTERPRETATION!

honesttalk21:
I said my previous post was final. I am making this one clarification only because your two subsequent responses at 10:09 p.m. 19/09 and 12:11 a.m.20/09/2026 do not resolve the central objections; they largely repeat the original assertions and then expand the discussion into new subjects.

So let us be precise about what happened. You did answer the four preliminary questions concerning Zechariah 12:10. I have no need to pretend otherwise. You identified YHWH as the speaker, the house of David and inhabitants of Jerusalem as “they,” the pierced figure according to your reading, and the mourners. You then appealed to John 19:34–37 to connect Jesus with the pierced figure. But those four answers were not the whole argument.

The real questions were what those answers actually establish. You still have to demonstrate:

1. Why Zechariah 12:10, in its original Hebrew and literary context, specifically refers to Jesus.
2. Why Jesus uniquely fulfills the passage.
3. Why fulfillment of the passage establishes deity specifically, rather than Messiahship, kingship, representation, or another category.
4. How the textual variant between אֵלַי (to Me) and אֵלָיו (to him) affects the argument.
5. Why the Christian reading should control over the alternative Jewish readings.

John 19:37 establishes that John applies the piercing text to Jesus. It does not, by itself, prove every proposition between John applies this text to Jesus and therefore Zechariah proves Jesus is YHWH.

That missing chain is exactly what I was asking you to establish.
I did answer your questions!

To answer it, I didn't appeal to my INTERPRETATION, rather I allowed the Bible itself to ANSWER the Question.

Let me remind you as you asked two sets of questions and I answered them. Please check

FIRST SET OF QUESTIONS

honesttalk21:
8. Now to Zechariah 12:10
You asked me for four short answers.
Here they are.
1. Who is speaking?
The speaker is YHWH, speaking in the first person, I and Me.
2. Who are they?
In the immediate context they are the inhabitants of Jerusalem and the house of David.
3. Who is the pierced one?
In the reading אֵלַי (ʾēlay, to Me) of the Masoretic Text, the wording makes the speaker identical with the one towards whom they look in the piercing statement. However, there is a major textual variant אֵלָיו (ʾēlāw, “to him”), which changes the grammatical construction
4. Who is grieving?
The house of David and the inhabitants of Jerusalem mourn.
Those are the truthful answers to the questions as written. But you then have to do the actual interpretive work.
1. The speaker is YHWH (the LORD), the God of Israel, who says “I will pour” and “they shall look on Me.”

2. “They” are the house of David and the inhabitants of Jerusalem (the people of Judah/Jerusalem).

3. The One who was pierced is grammatically the same divine speaker (“Me whom they pierced”),

4. Those who shall mourn are the house of David and the inhabitants of Jerusalem (the people of Judah/Jerusalem) over the pierced one.

Let me allow the Bible to INTERPRET the text for you.

John 19:34:
"But one of the soldiers with a spear pierced his side, and immediately came there out blood and water."


Here you see that Jesus was PIERCED.

John 19:37:
"And again another scripture said, They shall look on him whom they pierced."


The Book of John IDENTIFIES Jesus as the One PIERCED according to the Scripture as quoted in Zechariah 12:10


This is JUST ONE EVIDENCE!




YOUR SECOND SET OF QUESTIONS

honesttalk21:
14. You also skipped the actual questions.
You said I will thereafter explain what each of your questions mean. But explaining what my questions mean is not answering them. My questions were deliberately specific.
What does the passage mean in its original context? Why does it specifically refer to Jesus? Why does Jesus uniquely fulfill it? How does that fulfillment establish deity specifically? Those questions remain. And that is important because your entire conclusion depends upon them.
You jumped the gun because I asked you to answer some questions and not to write a thesis objecting what I have not even defended.

You asked me to answer the questions
1. What the passage means in its original language and context.

Answer: God was telling the Children of Israel that they would at a time in future Reject and Pierce Him and they would cry terribly when they realise that it is YHWH that they have rejected amd Pierced. There they would be restored!


2. Why it specifically refers to Jesus.
Answer: The Bible itself said that the passage refers specifically to Jesus (NOT Me) in the Book of John 19:34 and John 19:37:


3. Why Jesus uniquely fulfills it.
1. Jesus was Pierced.
2. Jesus is coming back again at the end of time to judge mankind AND then, the Jews will realise that the One they had Rejected as the Messiah is their God.

4. Most importantly, how its fulfillment proves divinity specifically, rather than Messiahship, kingship, prophethood, or divine appointment.

Answer: In the book of Zech 12:10 , YHWH says that He would be Rejected and Pierced by the Children of Isreal
The Book of John 19:34 and John 19:37: explicitly identified Jesus as the YHWH who was pierced according to prophecy of Prophet Zechariah!


Note that the Bible itself interpreted the book of Zechariah and NOT my interpretation.





You probably OVERLOOKED my RESPONSES!


I WASN'T APPEALING TO MY OWN INTERPRETATION, I WAS USING THE NEW TESTAMENT TO ANSWER YOU!

RollinTNDA:
We are talking about physical pain
And all you mentioned was emotional pain.
The same way a soul feels no physical pain is the same way the Ai doesn't feel physical pain

Fear worry anxiety are emotional

Hell you describe is more of physical torture pain with fire burning you with gnashing of teeth and crying from the heats of burning flames.

That is physical pain

A good description of hell for a soul
Is a soul that is lost in fear anxiety and insecurity. That is emotional torture that best describe what he'll means for a soul

Not burning of fire and quenching if thisrt
Because you have three BODIES (IDENTITIES)

Physical Body
Soul (Internal Body)
Spirit Body

Each one has its own Sense Receptors AND they work TOGETHER as a whole YOU!

Your question is like looking for the VDU or KBD of a software! Bad Question! Looking for the physical pain of the Soul.

SMH!!


I dont know if you are a Christian:
If you are, you should understand that Your Spirit Body Represents you in Hell.

AND AFTER RESURRECTION

BOTH Your Spirit, your Soul AND your Physical body Represents you in the Lake of Fire

You should know that all your statements can never be taken serious at all . That is why I don’t even bother to read all your statement again cos I know for sure you get virus . You don’t understand anything ; even Ai know that you are not serious. Shioor .

Well , your god has 7 horns o


Your god get 7 horns amd eyes lobatan

Revelation 5:6

“Then I saw a Lamb, looking as if it had been slain, standing at the center of the throne, encircled by the four living creatures and the elders. The Lamb had seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven spirits of God sent out into all the earth."

No be talk am , na your Bible said it .

Lobtan .
Meaning that your God according to Allah himself has seven hirns and seven eyes

And to our God with seven horns and seven eyes YOU SUBMIT!

Eyah!!

Qur'an 29:46
Do not argue with the People of the Book unless gracefully, except with those of them who act wrongfully. And say, “We believe in what has been revealed to us and what was revealed to you. Our God and your God is ˹only˺ One. And to Him we ˹fully˺ submit.”


Was Allah telling LIES?



So. even though you refuse to READ to be WISE, I repeat

[s]
The one who believes in the shigidi of the Arabs with teo right hands is planning to go to the brothel to service his perpetual virgins who's sole qualifications are desirable frontal passages and two big feeding bottles.

The one who associates a man kalled Mohamaduum with god-LAH doesn't know that hebhas committed shirk.

The problem eith him is that he has convinced himself to worship a FALSE God while thinking that the God he worships is the God of Abraham, Moses, David and Jesus and not knowing thatbwhat he has held on firmly to is a 419 replacement dummy.
