Question: A Muslim friend made an outrageous claim to me that in Deuteronomy 18: 15-19 it is speaking of Muhammed and not Jesus. One hole in this claim is that Muhammad was an Arab, not a Jew. (Genesis 22:18). He would be of the house of David (Jeremiah 21:5). What do you think of this? […]
Question: My question is on your interpretation on the two olive trees on pg 102 of you book “From Shadow to Reality.” You said ” The two who are anointed are a reference to the high priest Joshua and the governor Zerubabbel, both of whom were foreshadows of the anointed one: the Messiah”. I was […]
Questions (there are several here): Let us take the final 11 verses of Mark for which the earliest evidence is non-existent. Why and by whom were they later added? Why was Jesus described as riding on a donkey? Because the writer knew it would be seen as the fulfilment of OT prophecy and would therefore […]
Question: In your section on the 10 horns-the 11th being Domitian, what historical sources can you site that show that Vespesian and/or Domitian subdued Otho and Galba? I have only been able to find sources for Vitellius’s overthrow by armed forces who supported Vespesian. Could the three who were subdued actually be ordinal… For example, […]
I am currently reading the book of Daniel and I know that you have a lot of knowledge about this book. However, I cannot make the connection from Daniel 7:24 to anywhere else in historical times. It reads: “The ten horns are ten kings who will come from this kingdom. After them another king will […]
I really enjoyed the book From Shadow to Reality. It gave me a more global perspective for the whole Bible and tied up some loose ends for me. I did have a question though about something you wrote. At one point, you wrote that Jesus fulfills the prophecy of coming from the lineage of Judah […]
I understand that Psalm 2:7 is talking about Jesus but what do the words “Today I have begotten you” mean? Is he referring to physical birth? If not what is it talking about? I would say that the most obvious place to look for an answer is in John 1:14. “We have seen his glory, […]
Someone told me that most scholars say that Revelation was written after AD 70. Where can I find what scholars say regarding the date of Revelations? If it’s after AD 70, is it possible that most of Revelation has not happened, which is this individual’s view? From what I understand it was written more so […]
Please give me all the information you can on Daniel the prophet in the Old Testament. I would like to write an essay on him. I have published a book on Daniel, so I certainly do have a lot of material on him. You can purchase a copy of the book at www.ipibooks.com . I […]
Are you able to provide a summary of non-messianic prophecies for which there is written evidence of them being proclaimed before being fulfilled? This would restrict prophecy to the Old Testament, as the earliest ‘significant’ copies we have of the New Testament are dated in the 4th century AD, well after most (if not all) […]
In Daniel 2:44, when he says “setup a kingdom” does it mean the one in heaven or the church? to me it seems heavenly. Also can you let me know some scriptures where it says “kingdom…” which refer to the heavenly kingdom and some which refer to the church (OT & NT).If you cant answer […]
In Daniel 2:44 it says that: “…it will crush and put an end to all those kingdoms, but it will itself endure forever.” In what way will the kingdom “crush” the other kingdoms? Is he talking about when Christ returns and destroys the physical realm which include the earthly kingdoms or is he talking about […]
*Did the messianic prophecies foretell of the “second coming?” *Does God explicitly reveal to Moses the 8 day circumcision decision procedure or is it more like it was a “best practices” act that was handed down over generations and then was written down by Moses? *Do we know how long Jesus was in Egypt? There […]
Micah 5:2 Says that the messiah would be born in Betlehem. After that it goes on to speak of the assassins invading Israel and that he and 7 others would save Israel. (v.4-6).What’s that about? If also verses 4-6 can apply to the same great leader in v.2 (and it seems to me that it […]
I wondering about chapter 9 (of the book Daniel in the Bible), if it is not possible to look at the last week as taking 70 years instead of 7, and have it overlap the others so that it covers from the birth of Jesus till the destruction of the temple in which case Jesus […]
I was reading your book about Daniel, and I wanted to ask some questions about Daniel chapter 7 and your comment, because there were some thingswhich weren’t clear to me. 1) In the Roman Empire there weren’t just 11 kings, I mean after Domitian came a lot of other kings in the Roman Empire who […]
I would like to know some information about the Prophet Daniel. 1.Why did Daniel become a prophet?2.What did he do that was so important3.When and Where was he born and lived?4.How did he go about doing God’s work?5.Why do you think Daniel was able to talk with God? Have you read my book on Daniel? […]
In Matthew 2:15, Matthew is quoting the OT text that was referring to Jesus (Hosea 11:1). This is a so called messianic prophecy. But if you read the context of the OT verse, it was speaking of Israel whom God called, not at all about Jesus. If it is talking about Jesus when you read […]
I was wondering what your take on Matthew 24:14 is. I’ve been reading through it and, before reading any commentaries, I thought that perhaps Jesus was teaching us that when we’ve accomplished the great commission, reaching all the world with the gospel of God’s kingdom, he would come back for his church and for judgment. […]
Are there still prophecies that need to be fulfilled from the Old Testament and the New Testament? Absolutely. If you think about it, you will realize this yourself. For example, consider 1 Thess 4:16f, “For the Lord himself will come down from heaven, with a loud command, with the voice of the archangel and with […]
Where in the Bible did God promise David that he would place one of his descendants on his throne? That would be in 2 Chronicles 17:12-14 and Psalms 89:4 as well as 2 Samuel 7:14-16. Other passages could be used as well, such as Psalms 2:7, where he is speaking through David to his “son” […]
I assume you mean the Jews who were directly effected by Jesus’ ministry or those who knew them. Those who did not accept Jesus for who he said he was did not fail to believe because of lack of evidence. Jesus said “Even though you do not believe me, believe the miracles, that you may […]
The complete question: I have recently finished a Christian evidences class in my congregation. In that class we learned several proofs of the validity of the Bible, including prophecies that eventually came true. One of these prophecies was Ezekiel 26. We learned that God became angry at the people of Tyre in that time and […]
