Jesus: Why I believe He was a failure.

You guys had any luck with confirming Jesus' bloodline to David, or are you happy to concede that there is not one?

Just so I can get things straight here Buz.Are you saying that no credible Bible scholar would say that the Nathan prophecy states that God promised David that his house (dynasty) would last forever even though the prophecy clearly states this? " 'The LORD declares to you that the LORD himself will establish a house for you 2 Sam 7:11The 'house' in this quote refers to a Davidic dynasty, are you sure that no credible Bible scholar would agree with me here?

Have we found Jesus' bloodline to David yet?

My very first objection, the Davidic bloodline, has not been dealt with to anyone's satisfaction.

We are our own messiahs.When you escape your world of circular reasoning you will understand this.

We get told this everytime there's a disaster or a war or terrorist attack, people have been told this every few decades for the last 2000 years, it simply isn't going to happen, the guy was no messiah.While you are here, since no one has explained my first point, the bloodline of David, why don't you have a go at solving that major obstacle instead of firing out meaningless garbage from God's Big Book of Fairytales?

And so we are back to the circular reasoning and self delusion required to accept Jesus.And back to the fact that Jesus did not fulfil a single prophecy.Anyway, thanks for the input, it wasn't totally useless, but it certainly didn't do Jesus' case any good.And in true John 10:10 (good buddy) fashion: Stay away from a foolish man, for you will not find knowledge on his lips.

So, a group of unknown authors sit with books written centuries before and scribe their books to tally with these books and this is impressive in some way?
