1 | A FALSE TEACHING? Yes / No | Matt 8:5 | EdB | 94266 | ||
Graceful Actually I never made that connection and I don't think it is valid. In Psalm 22 the writer is describing himself as a worm. I don't see how that is can be interpreted as the sin of the world but even if it could, is that an appropriate title to call the Son of the Living God? I don't think so! I call Him Master, Savior, King of Kings, Holy One of God, Prince of Peace, Mighty Counselor. Quite frankly I would not listen to a man that called Jesus a worm in any context. Call be silly but that is my Savior. EdB |

Ed, "Actually I never made that connection and I don't think it is valid. In Psalm 22 the writer is describing himself as a worm. I don't see how that is can be interpreted as the sin of the world but even if it could, is that an appropriate title to call the Son of the Living God? I don't think so! I call Him Master, Savior, King of Kings, Holy One of God, Prince of Peace, Mighty Counselor. Quite frankly I would not listen to a man that called Jesus a worm in any context. Call be silly but that is my Savior." There is adequate reason to accept that Jesus was quoting this Psalm on the cross. Psalm 22:1 My God! My God! Why have you abandoned me? Verse 6-8 But I am a worm, not a man, scorned by everyone, despised by the people. All who see me jeer at me; they sneer and shake their heads:"He committed Hmself to Adonai, so let Him rescue Him!" Does this not describe the crouds jeering at Jesus? Verse 14-17 describes the suffering of the cross, then verse 18 says, " They divide my garments among themselves; for my garments they throw dice. This describes the suffering of our Lord. Would I dscribe Him as a worm? NO! I know Him as the King of Kings and Lord of Lords BECAUSE of what He suffered. Because He was despised and afflicted, and because He took my sin upon Himself. This Psalm does not disrespect Jesus but exalts Him as the supreme sacrifice paying the supreme price. 2 Corinthians 5:21 He made Him who knew no sin to be sin on our behalf, so that we might become the righteousness of God in Him. (NASB) 2 Corinthians 5:21 21For our sake He made Christ [virtually] to be sin Who knew no sin, so that in and through Him we might become [[1] endued with, viewed as being in, and examples of] the righteousness of God [what we ought to be, approved and acceptable and in right relationship with Him, by His goodness].(Amplified) Jesus did not merely suffer physicaly, as horrible as that was in itself. I know some teach that His physical suffering was all He endured, this Psalm indicates otherwise. And 2 Corinthians seems to substantiate this. He did not just die for sin, but was made sin for us. But whether the suffering on the cross or believing He became sin for us, is a depth issue, not a salvaton issue. To accept Jesus as saviour for our sins is the way to salvaton regardless of the 'depth' of suffering we believe. The blood poured out for our sins... God bless God bless |

3 | A FALSE TEACHING? Yes / No | Matt 8:5 | EdB | 94282 | ||
Graceful Your trying to change the subject again. The subject was Copleland calling Jesus a worm. I very aware of the connection between what Jesus said on the cross and Psalm 22 but where does that give Copeland or anyone else the right to call Jesus a WORM? As you said yourself you wouldn't call Jesus a worm yourself so why would you even consider justifying a man like Copeland that did? Your reasoning baffles me. EdB |

Graceful BALONEY!!!!! You weren't having a Bible study you were defending a WOF teacher!! Let us stick to the point! A statement was made that Copeland was a false teacher and you jumped in crying foul. I and many others have repeatedly shown you why we say this. Now your answer is you were trying to have a Bible study and we are all closed minded louts that you the ‘enlightened one’ must endure. How pathetic! Admit your were wrong about Copeland and let us move on. Isn't the definition of closed mindedness the refusal to see the obvious when confronted with overwhelming facts? EdB |
