Jesus fulfilled all the Prophecies , because the Seed planted, in God's mind, is equal to the Tree grown and bearing it's fruit. If one waits for the physical proof, then there is no place for belief or faith, but it becomes knowledge , when it is knowledge, then there is no more use for a Jew to be different than a Gentile, the knowledge being fully grown as a full grown Tree, needs no Jews, so the Jews ought to be watering the Seed that was planted, because the Seed is the Tree.

No, Yeshua did not and can not fulfill all of the prophecies because no apologist can agree on the same number of prophecies. That and a lot of the so called prophecies are fabricated by the authors of the New Testament and aren't even mentioned in the Old Testament. You'd think they would be smart enough to throw something in the Old Testament if they claim it was a prophecy in the New.

I am not even talking about a political power, as the Catholic Church believed. As the Gospel of Thomas, inspired or not, said "the kingdom of God spreads out upon the face of the earth." It is true, at least that part is I cannot speak for the rest of it, the Kingdom of God is not subject to political borders. Believe it or not a perfect society is possible, it was never part of God's plan for mankind to have governments, but to be subject to the Kingdom of God.

Actually the His Kingdom is Advancing without end even before His Second Coming as it says in Matthew 11:12. How is it that John the Baptist was able to advance the Kingdom, before Christ? Because the Kingdom is already here, when He comes again He will sit on the throne of what the Church will have then taken dominion over the earth and put it under Christ's footstool as the prophecy says.

Genesis 1:12 says God gave the Tree as a Trinity, There is a plant, called a Tree, but notably God calls the Tree, to be with it's Fruit, to be with it's Seed. So each appearance of the whole concept of a Tree is Divine among Three special appearances. The Tree bears the Fruit, that bears the Seed, that planted, grows again as the Tree, and the cycle goes endlessly over and over. Jesus remarked His appearance as Messiah was as a Seed, planted, that over time would become the Tree.

@MrUrosSrb this comment is unsubstantiated and doesn't deserve a response, but hey, I'm on a roll. Prove everything you assert in this comment, with facts independent of your little book. And maybe tell me why the crazy zombie invasion mentioned in Matthew 27:52-53 never appears in anything but your little bible book. I would certainly think that such an event warrants some mention in historical documents. And what was Joseph's daddy's name again? you didn't mention that earlier...

[acdelong]

@MrUrosSrb The gospels can't conflict whatsoever because, as you say "Jesus promised that he will send The Holy Spirit to instruct them". So with your logic either the "holy spirit" was a liar or was wrong on significant details that wouldn't conflict if written by a perfect being with ultimate knowledge. And in reality there are many gospels, written that didn't end up in your little rag- not to mention, we don't have autograph copies of a supposedly holy book that would have been preserved.

[acdelong]

@MrUrosSrb Yes, A bethlehem existed, but not the settlement referred to in the gospels, there is no evidence of settlement in the area where your super-friend was alleged to be born. Your mistaking a "prophesy" for a "fulfilled prophesy". And once again- it is circular logic to use your stupid book to attempt to provide evidence of your stupid book, quote all the dumbass verses you want, they don't serve as evidence.

[MrUrosSrb]

@acdelong As to when were the Gospels written,it doesnt really matter since Historians Please Gospel of Matthew in a timeline from as early as 40 AD to as late as 140 ad.But it doesnt matter since Jesus promised that he will send The Holy Spirit to instruct them,so You cant possibly say that people who wrote it forgot the details or something when they were inspired by the Holy Spirit of God.

[MrUrosSrb]

@acdelong They do not conflict at all.The Core Truths are the same,the little details can be explained.Ofcourse we cant expect every detail to be same because the Gospels were written By Luke who was a doctor,John who was a fisherman...and so on.They didnt all mention all details,,some say one thing some dont even mention that same event.Not all of the Gospel Writers Were eyewitnesses to every minute of Jesus' life.THey only wrote by the Holy spirit what they have saw.Thats why 4 gospels.
