my questions are very clear
BUT WHAT DOES IT HAVE TO DO WITH WHAT I SAID ABOVE
how can jesus say its alright to
gather stick on the sabbath when God in Bible directly said one who does this should be killed ?
"
the people of Israel were in the wilderness, they found a man who gathered sticks upon the sabbath day.
33. And those who found him gathering sticks brought him to Moses and Aaron, and to all the congregation.
34. And they put him in custody, because it was not told what should be done to him.
35. And the Lord said to Moses, The man shall be surely put to death; all the congregation shall stone him with stones outside the camp."

Numbers 23:19
GOD is not a man, that he should lie,
nor a son of man, that he should change his mind.
Does he speak and then not act?
Does he promise and not fulfill?
Hosea 11:9
I will not carry out my fierce anger,
nor will I turn and devastate Ephraim.
For I am GOD, and not man—
the Holy One among you.
I will not come in wrath.
GOD clearly states that he IS NOT a man or a son of man.
Kinda debunks the whole Christ story, doesn't it?
Why would GOD clearly say he is NOT A MAN and then come down as a man (Jesus) to fulfill foretold prophecy?
Makes no sense at all!
No matter how you twist this around, one thing will always be certain The Roman Vatican-Jesus is not GOD
The Violent Side of Jesus
Matthew 10:34-35
"Do not suppose that I have come to bring peace to the earth. I did not come to bring peace, but a sword. 35For I have come to turn a man against his father, a daughter against her mother, a daughter-in-law against her motherinlaw—
***That contradicts the Old Testament prophecy that the messiah was suppose to bring world peace. Regardless, what kind of sick person would turn families against each other?***
Luke 19:27
"But those enemies of mine who did not want me to be king over them-—bring them here and kill them in front of me."
***I'm guessing they don't read this verse in church very often, do they?***
Matthew 15:1-7
1Then some Pharisees and teachers of the law came to Jesus from Jerusalem and asked, 2"Why do your disciples break the tradition of the elders? They don't wash their hands before they eat!"
3Jesus replied, "And why do you break the command of God for the sake of your tradition? 4For God said, 'Honor your father and mother' and 'Anyone who curses his father or mother must be put to death.' 5But you say that if a man says to his father or mother, 'Whatever help you might otherwise have received from me is a gift devoted to God,' 6he is not to 'honor his father' with it. Thus you nullify the word of God for the sake of your tradition. 7You hypocrites! Isaiah was right when he prophesied about you:
***Jesus was advocating that those who curse their mother or father be put to death? WOW! And Jesus made the stingy remark all because the pharisee asked why his disciples didn't wash their hands!?***
Matthew 5:29-30
29If your right eye causes you to sin, gouge it out and throw it away. It is better for you to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to be thrown into hell. 30And if your right hand causes you to sin, cut it off and throw it away. It is better for you to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to go into hell.
***So Jesus wants us to gouge our eyes out and cut off our right hands when we sin?***
Matthew 8:21-22
21Another disciple said to him, "Lord, first let me go and bury my father." 22But Jesus told him, "Follow me, and let the dead bury their own dead."
***A very insensitive remark I'd say!***
“Lest you corrupt yourselves, and make you an engraved image, the form of any figure, the likeness of male or female,” (Deut 4:16)
“To you it was shown, that you might know that the Lord is God; there is no other beside him.” (“ :35)
“You shall have no other gods before me. You shall not make any engraved image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the waters beneath the earth; “ (5:7-8)
Preacher man whom claims to have the spirit !
You asked for questions I give them to you and all you can do is insult me
you will have to better than that
Either Jesus is what you believe or a great deception
A=1, Z=26
Christian church=111= empty prayer= false gods faith
a belief in jesus=138= empty beliefs
there is a God he runs the world and these numbers are not chance occurrences
Look at the questions Mr. Preacher man and you may learn something very important
God is God.
when will the answers come ?
Here they come!!!!!
BUT you ask way to may questions at one time. Is this ADD in action.
ONE (1) question at a time. No one can or will follow all the stuff you listed. So, your first was about Jesus and pick up sticks on the Sabbath.
I assume you mean Matthew 12:1-8 which is about plucking corn to eat not sticks. Sticks were in Numbers 15 as you listed. Well, you might not like it but here is the answer:
Gathering sticks in itself is not wrong. It could be for the purpose of providing a fire for warmth of cooking. The problem is that a man was deliberately and flagrantly gathering sticks in the open on the Sabbath day when God had commanded that no work be done on the Sabbath. This was a direct challenge to God's authority.
(Exodus 31:14) - "Therefore you are to observe the Sabbath, for it is holy to you. Everyone who profanes it shall surely be put to death; for whoever does any work on it, that person shall be cut off from among his people."
Apparently, this was the first public offense against the newly revealed law of God. It was, essentially, being tested. Therefore, the severity of the punishment was to demonstrate to all of Israel the necessity of obeying the Law of God.
Thus strictly enforced discipline was absolutely necessary lest open anarchy take place.
Jesus in responding to the Pharisees legalistic traditions Jesus used the example of 1 Samuel 21:1-6. The point being that our Lord makes is that in the case of necessity the "ceremonial law" can be overruled.He used the example of David eating the SHOWBREAD in the tabernacle.
Your right I dont like the answer as it does not adress the issue or any of the questions involved. see here :
In Matt. 12:1-7, is recorded an episode relating to Jesus’s observance of the holy Sabbath. Now G-d has commanded in His Torah (Ex. 31:15), “whoever does work on the Sabbath day shall be put to death.” We remember the episode of the man who went out and picked up sticks on the Sabbath and that he was put to death (ref. Num. 15:32- 36). What then is Jesus’s relationship with regards to the Sabbath, to the Word of G-d and the authority of the Divinely ordained Rabbinic judges. Let us review Matt. 12:1-7.
“At that time Jesus went on the Sabbath through the grain fields and his disciples,became hungry and began to pick the heads of grain and ate. But when the Pharisees saw it, they said to him, “Behold, your disciples do what is not lawful to do on a Sabbath.” But he said to them, “have you not read what David did . . . how he entered the house of G-d, and they ate the consecrated bread, which was not lawful for him to eat . . . or have you read in the Law that on the Sabbath the priests in the temple break the Sabbath, and
are innocent? But I say to you that something greater than the temple is here. But if you had known what this means, I desire compassion and not sacrifice you would not have condemned the innocent.”
This section is so full of errors that it broadly broadcasts Jesus’s lack of Torah education and knowledge of G-d’s laws. To begin with, it is surprising to note that Jesus’s disciples were not learned enough to know that the picking of grain on the Sabbath was a violation of Biblical law. Jesus should have taught them better, but judging from his response to the Pharisees, it might be understood that Jesus, himself, did not know the law.
When the Pharisees noticed Jesus’s disciples violating the Sabbath, they fulfilled their Biblical obligation of admonishment, as it is written, “You shall reprove your fellow and do not bear sin because of him” (Lev. 19:17). Instead of heeding the Rabbinic authorities and correcting their ways, like Jesus said should be done (Matt. 23:3 “therefore all that they tell you do and observe”) he instead attempts to justify the actions of his disciples and to challenge the authority of the Rabbis.
Jesus makes reference to the Biblical story of David (1Sam. 21:4-6), saying how when he (David) was hungry the priests gave him and his men to eat of consecrated bread. Therefore, if it is OK for the law to be broken for David, then surely it is OK for the law to be broken for Jesus’s disciples.
This response of Jesus makes no sense in light of Jewish law. You see, the priests did not violate the law in giving the bread to David and his men. Anyone can research this law and see for yourselves that what the priests did was entirely allowable. Therefore, when Jesus declared, “they ate the consecrated bread, which was not lawful for him to eat”, he was dead wrong in his analogy.
Jesus then attempts another analogy to justify their sinful behavior. He references the priests in the temple who “break the Sabbath, and are innocent.” One with the least knowledge of Torah law knows that temple sacrifice was commanded by G-d to be performed on the Sabbath (Num. 28:9-10). It involves no violation of the law.
It is not a violation of the Sabbath, it is the fulfillment of Sabbath law. Both of the
rationalizations that Jesus uses to justify his violation of the Torah law, instead of
justifying his position, further condemns his actions. However, the worst is yet to come. Jesus quotes the prophet Hoshea 6:6, “I desire compassion and not sacrifice.” Is this supposed to imply that G-d simply wants the Jewish people to be compassionate and that the observance of Jewish law is a sacrifice and thus not important?
Is it not written “My Sabbaths you must observe for it is a sign between Me and you for your generations” (Ex. 31:13) and “Between Me and the children of Israel it is a sign forever” (Ex. 31:16). Does something that is “forever” and “for your generations” come to an end? Did G-d, Himself not say, “whoever does work on the Sabbath day shall be put to death.” (Ex. 31:15)?
Instead of accepting the admonishment of the Rabbinic Sages, which we have no reason to doubt was offered in good faith, Jesus contradicts himself, and denies the authority and admonition of the Rabbis. By his own actions and words, Jesus not only violated the Sabbath, but he also refused to accept the authority of the Rabbinic judge, which he, himself says must be listened to.
Jesus violated the Sabbath and so did his disciples. Jesus displayed an appalling lack of knowledge of the Torah and acted with contempt towards the Rabbis whose job it was to admonish him, a job which Jesus, himself, acknowledges. And so, I ask you, are these the deeds of a messiah?
There are yet many episodes that conclusively show Jesus violating G-d’s command outlined in Deut. 17:11, “you shall not deviate from the word that they will tell you, right or left.”
Hello again my friend.
You asked about many things and I gave you the answer to your concerns over Matthew 12 and Jesus speaking on the disciples picking corn on the sabbath as it related to Exodus 31:15.
I in fact gave you what I believe was the correct and Biblical answer and as I suspected, you rejected it.
Now that answer was not my opinion. That answer came from the many, professors I have studied under along with the COMPLETE Bible and the direction of the Holy Spirit.
I am looking right now on my library shelf of some of those mens contrubution to higher learning and if I may say, can I suggest that you read some of them:
Dr. Edward Dobson, Dr. Charles L. Feinburg. Professor Edward Hinson, Dr. John Walvoord. J. Vernon MaGee, Oliver B. Green. The Bible.
That being said lets think for a minute WHY you would reject the answer.I can think of only two.
1. You do not have a relationship with Jesus as your Savior.
2. You are of the Jewish faith.
I do not want to assume anything but it appears that you are maybe both. I am not calling you names nor am I degrading you in any way. Only making an observation.
If it helps you I will tell you that I am a Christian, I love the Lord Jesus and understand Him to be the Christ, the Messiah and soon coming again Judge of all people. I AM PROUD for all to know that as well you should be of what YOU CHOOSE to be. That is all I am trying to say.
Now, if that is the case, I do not believe that you will accept ANY Biblical answer to your questions. It appears to me that you are more concerned in tying to prove what you have rejected than trying to learn the truth.
Titus 3:9
"But avoid foolish disputes and genealogies and contentions and striving about the LAW, for they are unprofitable and vain."
2 Timothy 2:23
"But foolish and unlearned questions avoid, knowing that they do cause strifes."
1 Timothy 1:4
"Neither give heed to fables and endless genealogies which minister questions rather than godly edifying which is in faith, so do".
Now you will probably take offence at what I just said, but to tell you the truth, I simply do not have the time or energy to argue about nonessentials. We are living in a world that is on fire. We have people being filled in Afganistan, Iraq, and terrortists are blowing up women and children. Cancer is killing hundreds of thousands of people yearly. There are estimated to be 22 million people infected world wide with HIV virus and the swine flu is killing people every day, and you are concerned about STICKS AND CORN BEING PICKED UP ON THE SABBETH. I have a feeling that when Jesus was asked about this, He felt the same way I do about it now. NOTHING!!! FOCUS! LIFE!
We need to FOCUS on the important things in life.
If you still want an answer to a question, LIST ONE (1) BIBLE VERSE AND YOUR QUESTION. Lets agree to get away from the rambling and going from one thought to another, OK.
Thank you for your thought and the time
Faith is not blind is is a power that has a basis in intellect and transcends it
I hope you are open enough to think about what others say
and consider their wisdom
The issues I raise concerning Jesus and the Sabbath violation are credible issues and questions concerning Jesus and worthy of concideration.
I Know and believe in the God[/b
as far as religion , I tend to follow that of the Bible and other truth , but this god man jesus thing makes no sense it seems to contradict many important things in the Bible itself ?
Like these points :

Now G-d has commanded in His Torah (Ex. 31:15), “whoever does work on the Sabbath day shall be put to death.” We remember the episode of the man who went out and picked up sticks on the Sabbath and that he was put to death (ref.

Dont think you are above these questions
God in the time to come will reveal who his messiah is until then , His identity does not matter now is the time to try to abstain from evil and help others to do so
and do good
Dont worry God will choose his Messiah in its time
peace
