Just a space to extol Christ, who is infinitely more.

@Islam435 Muslim dominated countries display an average IQ of 81, falling into the low-average range. They are well on their way, albeit from the inside.

@Ernest1588761 You've made the claim. You bear the burden.

[me @runnerbytrade]

@Ernest1588761 No one is both an atheist, just like no one is born a Christian, for both positions assume knowledge that isn't granted at birth.

[me @runnerbytrade]

@Ernest1588761 No.

[me @runnerbytrade]

@JamesKowalski88 @NotSonnyFaz Nice one.

[me @runnerbytrade]

@Ernest1588761 Why is it necessary? The Bible recounts unbelief even among those who witnessed similar miracles. What would change today?

[me @runnerbytrade]

@abi4560 @jcsalomon I agree. And Gabriel answered in an unexpected manner.

@Ernest1588761 “Die”, not “d!e”.

@jcsalomon @abi4560 I appreciate that you took the time to read what I wrote. We won’t agree, but I appreciate it nonetheless.

Oh, Daniel asked the right question, and Gabriel answered in a way he had never expected.

What follows Daniel’s prayer is an unexpected visit from the angel Gabriel, who gives an answer to Daniel from God himself. This was an awesome visitation, but the answer is more than Daniel expects, for it not only answers his immediate request for relief, but it also points Daniel to times to come after their exile, when wonderful blessings will be realized, but also, trouble. That is not exactly what Daniel was expecting. Daniel was concerned for his people, but he was also concerned for God’s name and glory. A vision of Israel surely would end in victory, yes? Their captivity is nearing its end. Surely there is good news. God, perhaps addressing some short-sightedness in Daniel, delivers a prophecy of stupendous nature, and in doing so, it is as if God is saying, “Do you want to know, Daniel, how I will exalt my name? Let me tell you.”

And your argument still rests upon silence.

@eternalbread_ Agreed. https://t.co/xF2IcJV0P8

Sneaky and disingenuous, as always. You would begin with verse 10 if you wished to make sense of this passage.

Who is the one cursed? Read verse 10:

"For all who rely on works of the law are under a curse;..."

Now, who is cursed? It seems plain from that verse that any who relies "on works of the law are under a curse;"

You say Christ was cursed by God in verse 13, but read it again. Where does it say God did so? It says that that Christ became a curse, not that he was cursed.

Christ was not cursed.

Rather he became a curse.

[me @runnerbytrade]

@abi4560 Correct. But he was told nonetheless. And your argument is still derived from silence.

@UgoCannon Can you elaborate or steelman your argument? I personally find the meme to be a bit confusing.

[me @runnerbytrade]

@Ernest1588761 "died", not "d!ed".
