To CP...
You reference the Old Testament as revealing who God is...not what they did but what God did...
Who is Jesus Christ and not another...
Ask what does your Jesus do? Did He heal the sick, stand in front of the Highest of declare the Works of God at a young age?
Did he cast out unclean spirits?
Did he put a coin in a fishes mouth?
Where are these miracles, and is it recorded that He walked on Water?
That is all you have to say...
because they will see they weren't brought to you because you but the truth in you...look only JESUS CHRIST because HE is the LIGHT to it all...HE Will prove HIMSELF worry not
...Even Paul was aware of this happening ...Hence
II Corinthians 11:1-6...Paul Here also refers to the Bride of Christ, which is the Elect at His resurrection...and there Is ONLY ONE bride, One Gospel, One Lord, for this Gospel is what needs to be preached in all these words...for they are nsync with the Old and the Gospels they are perfect and He will indeed prove it...
Would to God ye could bear with me a little in my folly: and indeed bear with me.
2 For I am jealous over you with godly jealousy: for I have espoused you to one husband, that I may present you as a chaste virgin to Christ.
3 But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ.
4 For if he that cometh preacheth another Jesus, whom we have not preached, or if ye receive another spirit, which ye have not received, or another gospel, which ye have not accepted, ye might well bear with him.
5 For I suppose I was not a whit behind the very chiefest apostles.
6 But though I be rude in speech, yet not in knowledge; but we have been throughly made manifest among you in all things.
See Paul knew why John 16 and he understood it how people could be blind, and lean to their ways of understanding THINKNING they are doing God a service!...not so see HERE it is Hence Acts 9 for many didn't believe it until they Saw him Preach it...then they listened...
