Joshua is an angel. This vision wasn't of a courtroom. Zechariah had a vision of lucifers rebellion.
It doesn't matter if you believe me. Someday I will die and in that same hour, i'll return to Hell for my sins.
There is strong evidence that the biblical character of Jesus the Son of Joseph, also know as Jesus the Nazarene and who notoriously was bestowed with the title of "Christ" after his death and upon rumors of his resurrection, was a prophesied reincarnated soul, promised a "Messiahship" or "Christhood" in the Old Testament.
Did Paul just pull this idea of "Jesus" being a High Priest from his nether regions, or is their a precedent for his claim of "Jesus" being a High Priest and NOT God? Turns out there is precedence for his claim.
There is also strong evidence (theological of course) that Jesus was not the son of Joseph.
If Mary was already with child and knew no man then Joseph could not be the father of Jesus. In Hebrews 4:14 you posted that Paul said that Jesus was the Son of God. Then how is he the son of Joseph?
esus, becoming the high priest, is understood as the scepter being passed from the from the representatives of the law and prophets to the Christ.
You also wrote-- "for his claim of "Jesus" being a High Priest and NOT God?" -- is an inference of untruth. Jesus nor any recorded Apostle or disciple of Jesus has ever claimed that He professed to be God. misleading to say the least.
Note that Yahusha (Joshua the high priest) and Yahusha (Jesus) are exactly the same names. So what is the inference? Millions of people have the same names as each other. That is a silly inference to say the least.
You wrote in verse 8 that it was God who would take away the sins in one day and in your summery you then say that Yahusha (Joshua the high priest) will take away the sins in one day.
Your entire premise is greatly flawed.
A star for your thoughts, however, Zachariah 6 makes it clear that Joseph, the son of Jozadak, is THE BRANCH. Besides, we already know that John the Baptist was Elijah.
No windword. You can't get away with that. John the baptist was not reincarnated nor was he Elijah.
Matthew 11
14"And if you are willing to accept it, John himself is Elijah who was to come.…
We are ALL "sons and daughters" of the The Most High, are we not?
Are you suggesting that the spirit of Moses and Elijah passed the "High Priest" torch to Jesus through your citation of Mark 9? Moses was not a High Priest, Aaron was. So, that premise falls apart.
Thank you. Can you tell me why Christians, then, claim Jesus is God?
No, you misunderstand. According to scripture, it's "The Angel of the LORD" that takes away the sins due to the obedience of Joshus (Jesus). It's Christians who make the claim that Jesus the High Priest takes away sins.
Christianity's premise is greatly flawed.
No we are not all sons and daughters of God unless we are born again.
Even being born again does not exclude judgment.
"Truly, truly, I say to you, he who hears My word, and believes Him who sent Me, has eternal life, and does not come into judgment, but has passed out of death into life.
Jesus being the Begotten of God was not created and became the Son of man by understanding of man but still the Begotten Son of God.
Moses was the Law Giver and not Aaron. God made His covenant through Moses and not through Aaron. Aaron was the help meet of Moses if you recall. God appointed Aaron as the priest through authority of Moses only and not as High
Priest. There have been many High Priests but all are under the Moshe covenant. Elias (Elijah) was the prophetic authority of God while Moshe was the authority of Law. This authority of prophets and law were passed from this covenant of Moshe to the covenant of the Christ Yahusha in His glorification.
There is no other authority than God and His begotten that can forgive sin.
Acts_4:12 Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.
That's just one of the many lies in the book of Acts.
The Book of Acts is NOT "literature of the Hebrews"! But, the Book of Zachariah is.
Isn't literature any written work and even includes such work as poetry or hymns?
