RE: [TruthTalk] The spirit of anti-christ

[Dean Moore]

cd: Good point Judy. Reminds me of Christ's first miracle that was mentioned-making of the wine. His mother told the people to do what he tells you to do-she must have good reason to believe Jesus could accomplish miracles-makes one wonder how many she had seen before this.     ----- Original Message ----- From: Judy Taylor To: truthtalk@mail.innglory.org Sent: 1/30/2006 6:57:00 AM Subject: [TruthTalk] The spirit of anti-christ   Bill writes: It is rebellion to deny the physical lineage of Christ. He is the second Adam precisely because he is of Adam's blood: through Eve to Seth, and Noah, and Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, and Judah, and David to Jesus through Mary. To deny this is to deny that Christ came in the flesh at all. John tells us that it is anti-Christ to hold and promote such a belief; indeed, it is the spirit of rebellion. You are wrong about this Bill and you are holding to false doctrine in this area.  Noone is denying any physical lineage of Christ, just the one you portray.  Jesus is not the second Adam for the reason you proffer above.  He came to introduce a "new creation" - not put band aids on the old.  Actually your gospel is the spirit of anti-christ - which in actuality is another (flesh Christ) standing in place of the real. You don't know what kind of flesh he had.  Yes Mary and Joseph are both in David's lineage but Joseph is not his biological father who supplies the sperm and determines the sex and blood type of the child.  Jesus at 12yrs of age was saying that he had to be about his Father's business and he wasn't referring to Joseph.  He also called the temple his Father's house rather than the carpenter shop he was raised in.  In Matt 1:18 we are told that "Mary was found with child of the Holy Ghost" (Matt 1:18); so Bill why not ask God to reveal it to you rather than construct a different Jesus and another gospel? Please take heed the words of Christ, exalted to David's throne: "I, Jesus, have sent My angel to testify to you these things in the churches. I am the Root and the Offspring of David, the Bright and Morning Star." -- Rev 22.16 I would underline Root if I were you and then go and read Romans 11:16-18 ... If the root be holy??  The Lord said to my Lord??   Bill
