Whatever you say

2018-07-01 04:53:11 UTC  

also jesus being tempted by satan in the wilderness is clearly about the pharisees tempting him with the messianic test of messiahship by asking him to turn stones into bread. The chapter before you see the common theme of the pharisees following jesus everyone he went.

Unfortunately people don't read the Bible from a first century Jewish context so they make up tons of shit

2018-07-01 04:54:31 UTC  

I don't read the Bible at all lol

2018-07-01 04:55:03 UTC  

Well I've spent probably 10,000 hours studying the book and the culture

2018-07-01 04:55:49 UTC  

Christ, that's more than a year of pure study. You must have a lot of spare time

2018-07-01 04:55:58 UTC  

I sometimes will just speak entire books of the Bible by memory. It's crazy

2018-07-01 04:56:08 UTC  

It's my job and my major

2018-07-01 04:56:34 UTC  

Oh so you're still in college

2018-07-01 04:56:39 UTC  

yep

2018-07-01 04:56:43 UTC  

What year

2018-07-01 04:56:49 UTC  

working on my masters

2018-07-01 04:56:51 UTC  

Why go to college instead of seminary?

2018-07-01 04:56:59 UTC  

It is a seminary

2018-07-01 04:57:13 UTC  

Well then

2018-07-01 04:57:25 UTC  

I also study Greek and Hebrew

2018-07-01 04:57:31 UTC  

have minors in both.

2018-07-01 04:57:31 UTC  

Hope you do well as a Priest

2018-07-01 04:57:36 UTC  

I will try lol

2018-07-01 04:57:56 UTC  

I just want people to be taught the truth and that's it

2018-07-01 04:58:19 UTC  

You don't have to believe it but I'm at least going to present it correctly

2018-07-01 04:58:20 UTC  

So why are you becoming a priest then?

2018-07-01 04:58:32 UTC  

If you wish to teach the truth that is

2018-07-01 04:58:46 UTC  

It's an interesting perspective but idk if that alone will be enough to convince me

2018-07-01 04:58:53 UTC  

Well I probably should go into being a professor.

2018-07-01 04:59:34 UTC  

Well I at least want to present the Bible the way it should be understood.

2018-07-01 04:59:47 UTC  

I mean when the Trump Republic gets like enough members, you can always talk about it in ideology politics

2018-07-01 04:59:54 UTC  

right now I don't think you will get much of an audience lol

2018-07-01 05:00:13 UTC  

At least people cold then make informed decisions about whether they wish to believe the Bible

2018-07-01 05:00:43 UTC  

Genesis is also not about physical creation

2018-07-01 05:01:03 UTC  

Genesis and the rest of the Old Testament should be discarded

2018-07-01 05:01:08 UTC  

So there is a big issue solved that most complain about

2018-07-01 05:01:12 UTC  

The Gnostics were right about everything

2018-07-01 05:01:28 UTC  

No

2018-07-01 05:01:41 UTC
