Also Jesus/Yashua predicted His own timing when He stated how long He would be in the Tomb Mat 12v40 . All this has been thoroughly covered in other threads you obviously ignored....so I'm not starting another discussion on that. You believe what you will. I don't agree with what was said in those other threads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do think omniscience [infinite knowledge], the Lord knowing the beginning from the end, may be part of our view of predestination? This does not detract from the fact that; the angels and us are given free will, choice and the freedom to accept or reject. One knowing our choices and decisions a head of time does not detract from it was "us" whom ultimately made the free will choice and decision.

I agree that Jesus was sinless, but since I believe original sin is passed down through the Father, none of the scriptures showing Jesus was spotless prove anything.

But very rarely I learn something that makes me wonder, again. This is slightly off-topic but close. Myself and several people I know have last-names based on Italian since our ancestors came from Italy. My father always told me what my name is supposed to mean but without the Internet I couldn't check it. Turns out he was right and my personality lives up to it. Coincidence, it could be. But the other 5 people I checked up on also have lives & personality's that line up with the meaning of their last name. IMO this is reason to not argue over what we believe because I don't know why 6 people in their 60's - 70's would have personalities like their names. It may also be relevant that in the OT baby's were often given a name with a meaning that they hoped the adult would live up to.

I brought something up not long ago in Sunday School class. Every word, number, name, jot and tittle in the Bible has meaning. I ran across a bad guy in the Bible with an unusual name, and I wanted to see what his name meant. Long story short, after checking the meaning of dozens of Hebrew names in the Bible. I know I'm not the first one, but I discovered each name had a meaning that gave a bit of accurate information or character about that person, bar none. I posed the question; how did the parents get the idea to name their child, that reflected a bit of personality and character of that baby? I can only think of one way. I don't know if something like that would apply today? For one thing against it; so many names today have been altered from the original and corrupted. Because of difficulty of spelling it, pronouncing it, writing it, to be more American [or other nationality] to fit in and many other reasons. As far as I know, Hebrew and Hebrew names have never been corrupted from originals. Just a thought? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since I'm talking about last names it occurs to me that many people, in my extended family alone, have the same last name as I do. I'm not so sure that most of them live up to the meaning of the name. Maybe it is coincidence. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not implying this is relevant today or in any other language. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
