you can't just read everything at face value

wat

Words meant a little differently back then

that was moses

and jesus claimed that all things he prophesied will come to pass before the end of the current generation

@CallMeTruckson Pretty sure Jews still do that

They will

e.e

that was 1800 years ago or more

Over 2000

moses and the 10 commandments

moses oh akhenaten Osiris the first

and also the dead sea scrolls

Gregorian calendar lies to us

jesus also claimed that the mustard seed is the smallest seed ever, and he was wrong

even farmers at the time knew that

He probably meant in context from what they could see and what they had

nope

Remember they had to deal with what they had

they knew about poppy seeds

Why explain something that they don't have or won't understand

this probably belongs in the religion channel lol

I don't believe he said the mustard seed is the smallest seed

its in the book, look it up

i think it wa, :for your faith must be like the smallest seed, the mustard seed to bloom into a tree, or somthing like that

That is the real problem, not the size of the mustard seed itself. Thus, the misunderstanding of the mustard seed parable is merely symptomatic of the critics’ presupposed bias against the authority of God’s Word and a not-so-ironic reflection of faith in those who would suggest Jesus, the creator of all seeds, was in error.

@Cobra Commander Trump is Jesus sooooo

hm

They presuppose a uniformitarian view of the world and attempt to impose that view upon Scripture. This leads some evolutionists to reject the foundation of many scriptural doctrines in the first 11 chapters of Genesis, while it leads others to reject Scripture entirely. In attacking Jesus’ statements about the mustard seed, critics are attempting to undermine the authority of the Bible.

The seed of the Black Mustard plant (Brassica nigra), the species found in present-day Israel, is approximately 1.0 mm in length. There are many plants, such as begonias, petunias, and wormwoods, that, today, have smaller seeds. The smallest known seed, which belongs to a species of jewel orchid (Anoectochilus imitans), measures a microscopic 0.05mm in length, though other species of orchid have seeds larger than a mustard seed. Evolutionists point to this seeming inconsistency in Jesus’ teaching and claim that science has disproved a part of the Bible, while others point to it and claim it is impossible to take the Bible literally. They then apply this supposed impossibility to Jesus’ statements about Genesis and the first 11 chapters of the book of Genesis.

wat

I am not reading all of that

It's not for u

okay good

well

For commie athiest

i wouldnt go that far lol

nah

It would be more wussy socialist

In the synoptic Gospel accounts of the parable of the mustard seed, Jesus says, “He put another parable before them, saying, ‘The kingdom of heaven is like a grain of mustard seed that a man took and sowed in his field. It is the smallest of all seeds, but when it has grown it is larger than all the garden plants and becomes a tree, so that the birds of the air come and make nests in its branches” (Matthew 13:31–32).
Mark and Luke repeat the same parable with similar wording, though Luke leaves off the size of the seed.

you know what I am going to pull up don't you?
