Hagee is a living example of the old science fiction movie, "Invasion of the Body Snatchers," where alien beings take over more and more humans and turn them into mindless, robotic Pod People. Except, in Hagee's case, this movie should be called "Invasion of the Turds."<BR/><BR/>Imagine the overweening arrogance of these blind preachers leading their blind devotees. Hagee says: “When we stand in the streets of Jerusalem and see the Messiah walking toward us, one of us will have a major theological adjustment to make!”<BR/><BR/>Whatever orgasm of delusional pride makes him think HE, of all people, will be so honored?? And how does he propose to recognize the Messiah from amongst all those Jews in Jerusalem? By the Messiah's American Flag lapel pin and sticker on His SUV which says "Support our Troops"? Or by the Messiah's M-16 assault rifle slung over His shoulder? <BR/><BR/>And notice, too, all Hagee's friends - Mitty Romney, Sister Coulter, Brother Huckabee, Karly Rove, Rushie Limbaugh, Billy O'Reilly - don't they all look just so freshly washed and white and blond and delicious? Like little stuffed mushrooms to garnish Satan's Caesar salad? I can just imagine, with infinite pleasure, the sound of Lucifer crunching down on their little delicate bones.<BR/><BR/>Sweet dreams to all.<BR/>Chris Taylor,<BR/>White Man in Virginia.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32869165.post-40981424418905893372007-12-13T01:39:00.000-07:002007-12-13T01:39:00.000-07:00It is true that Jesus, the King of Kings and Lord ...It is true that Jesus, the King of Kings and Lord of Lords, will rule over all nations when He returns, but He does so when He returns as the conquering Jewish Messiah, the Son of David, to first rescue Israel from the "worthless shepherd/false messiah" mentioned in Zechariah 11:15-17 as He lands upon the Mount of Olives. When Jesus came the first time, He was not only King of the Jews; He was also King of the world (He made the world; He owns it.), but the mission of His first coming was as a Suffering Messiah, a universal Savior for all humanity, not as the Conquering Messiah which would come later. <BR/> Again, there has never been any concept in the Hebrew Tanakh and the Jewish authored New Testament (Luke being the lone exception, a gentile physician, who wrote his Gospel and the Acts of the Apostles) of the Anointed One of Israel or Messiah Who is also known as the Anointed One of the Gentiles, even though He will rule over both Israel and the nations when He returns. This is the ultimate meaning behind the Torah's passage of Genesis 12:3 where Abraham and his Jewish descendants will become a blessing to all the families of the earth through their Messiah. Through this one Jewish Descendant, Israel's God-Man Messiah Y'Shua (Micah 5:2), redemption has come to all men who accept it through His substitutionary death and resurrection. As the ultimate Passover Lamb, Jesus brought salvation to all who desire it, to the Jew first and then to the Greek/gentile (Romans 1:16). Moreover, His atoning sacrificial death was also foreshadowed through the Temple's sacrificial system and Abraham's sacrificial offer to God of his son Issac. Just because the gentiles have no messiah doesn't mean they won't reap the political benefits of the Jewish Messiah, Y'shua of Nazareth, Who will bring justice, liberty and peace to the entire world (Isaiah 9:6-7) when He rescues Israel from the one-world, global/ten-region confederation of nations toward the end of this age. <BR/> (Zechariah 12:2-3,12:10,14:1-4, 14:9) <BR/> -R.

There are 3 categories of anointed ones in scripture - prophets, priests and kings. He is all 3. He came as King of the Jews, He will return as King of the whole world. And according to the Epistle to the Hebrews, He is our High Priest. See also Psalm 2 where the Father says (paraphrased) 'It is too small a thing for you to have only Israel.

Bauer signed on to the NeoCon agenda several years ago, even adding his name to the PNAC documents that laid the foundation for the current administration's nation wrecking attempts at world domination. His response, or lack thereof, to your emails, are precisely what one would have expected. I have always suspected that Bauer was compromised by some dirty tricks team working for the Insiders. If you recall, he was running for the Republican presidential nomination a few years back, and was doing quite well in the polls, when lo and behold, one of his female campaign workers accused him of making advances toward her.

He sta...Of course, Jesus claimed to be the Messiah. He stated as such to the Samaritan woman at the well as recorded in John's Gospel. The Sanhedrin's high priest asked Jesus to His face if He was the Messiah, and Jesus said "I AM" followed by the proclamation of His deity to which the high priest responded by tearing his garment as a gesture of Jesus' so-called blasphemy. Moreover, Jesus further identified Himself with the Messianic term 'The Son of Man' extensively throughout the Gospels which is used in Daniel chapter 7 in describing the Messiah's second coming. All mankind, the Gentiles and the Jewish people, have One Savior, One High Priest, the greatest Prophet (As foretold by Moses in Deuteronomy 18:15-19) and the unique Incarnate God-Man, the Lord Jesus, but He is exclusively Israel's Messiah. The Gentiles do not have a Messiah, but when Y'shua/Jesus returns to rescue Israel from the false messiah and his satanic, ten-regional bloc world government toward the end of "Jacob's Trouble", He will restore all things and establish His global Kingdom from Jerusalem. There is but one divine Messiah with two roles fulfilling two separate missions. The first mission as 'Masciach ben Joseph' brought spiritual salvation to humanity; the second, 'Masciach ben David' will bring political salvation to the world. Jacob's sons did not recognize 'Joseph' until the second time, and when that time comes, their recognition will trigger the Messiah's return.<BR/> R.

I don't say there isn't a connection, only that I am not yet convinced.<BR/><BR/>Something that has been bothering me about Paul is his stance on abortion. Yes, it would be great to overturn Roe, and that is more than we are likely to ever get, but does that make it sufficient? If we are shooting for the impossible, why not a national ban on abortion? Abortion violates the fifth amendment, and as such would seem to fall under the jurisdiction of the national government. In addition, the constitution guarantees to each state a republican form of government, which can hardly be said of a state where abortion is legal.<BR/><BR/>The way I tend to see it is this way: rape is currently not a national crime, but it is illegal in all fifty states. Suppose one state were to legalize it? How can it be that a national government created to guarantee our rights ought to be powerless to overturn such a law? This is why I am hesitant to throw myself entirely behind Ron Paul, and why I am curious about Huckabee (about whom I admittedly know inexcusably little).Dauvit Balfourhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12543093128734164639noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32869165.post-47588471234621923312007-12-06T11:32:00.000-07:002007-12-06T11:32:00.000-07:00Mike and Mitt are all for business, which is where...Mike and Mitt are all for business, which is where they get their contributions from.
