Is God really the Villain of the Old Testament or has He been wrongly accused? If He has been wrongly accused, who is Responsible for the False Accusation? Part 11
Part 11
I have not read anywhere in scripture where Jesus said; “The Father said, but”. He simply states His position as being different then what they had heard. It is worthy to note that many other times Jesus said; "Moses said, but I say"
I have not read anywhere in scripture where Jesus said; “The Father said, but”. He simply states His position as being different then what they had heard. It is worthy to note that many other times Jesus said; "Moses said, but I say"
, once again making no reference to the Father having anything to do with the statement at all. Jesus never "butted" the Father.
He saith unto them, Moses because of the hardness of your hearts, suffered you to put away your wives. (Matt 19:8), but in Duet 24 we are told: but from the beginning it was not so.
Because of their hardness of heart, the deception of Satan’s lie had clouded their vision so they cannot see clearly. Because of this they were allowed to divorce for just about any reason. But, who did Jesus say told them this was okay? MOSES, but from the beginning it was (not) so....
Jesus was in disagreement with what Moses had to say about divorce. Are there cases where He disagreed with other prophets?
For the hearts of this people have grown dull. Their ears are hard of hearing, And their eyes (they) have closed, Lest they should see with their eyes and hear with their ears, Lest they should understand with their hearts and turn, So that I should heal them. (Matt 13:15)
Who is responsible for the mess these people are in? Jesus says in Matt. 113:15...(they) are responsible; (they) closed their own eyes. Acts 28:27 reads identical to Matt 13:15, (they) the people, have closed their own eyes. However Isaiah 6:10. says that God will close their eyes and implies that He is doing it because He doesn’t want them to repent and be healed.
We read in the Old Testament that its an eye for an eye, Jesus tells us to turn the other cheek. The Old Testament tells us to hate our enemies, Jesus tells us to love them. Moses tells us we can divorce for just about any reason; Jesus said this was never God’s idea. Isaiah tells us God is closing the eyes of those that don’t understand, Jesus said the people closed their own eyes. We have to stop trying to fit pieces into to puzzle that don’t belong. This is exactly why Jesus came, to show us who God is and to remove the confusion created by the lie of Satan in the garden.
Why is it that we continue to believe and uphold pre-cross mentality more than Truth Himself? With theological spectacles darkened by doctrinal coloring we pick through the Old Testament picking apart every sentence. We argue over context and meaning all the while ignoring Jesus words in John 5:39-40.
