Resolved Question: Is Bible prophecy which has come true in fact a combination of self-fulfilling prophecy and good planning?
The link below describes among various Biblical prophecies the following 10: 1. Jerusalem and the Temple would be destroyed. 2. The Jews would be exiled. 3. Israel would become a wasteland. 4. The Jews would be scattered worldwide. 5. The Jews would be persecuted worldwide. 6. The Jews would have a worldwide impact. 7. The Jews, and their national identity, would be preserved. 8. The Jews would return to their ancient homeland. 9. Enemies of the Jews would also reside in their homeland. 10. The Jews would have Israel again as their own country. (from http://www.aboutbibleprophecy.com/accuracy.htm) If you’ve got the Jews and “everyone else”, it seems like the prophecies above are more like a “to-do” list for the Jewish people, not necessarily stuff that is completely unlikely to happen ordinarily then suddenly comes true because God said it will be. Could these not have come about by either a) time travel, or b) coordinated planning and effort among the people to reach these goals? Green Eyes: Hiss hiss! Damn now I’m wondering why I added you to my contacts, sheesh. Lighten up?? o.O

Resolved Question: I’m planning on visiting Isreal…?
I always wanted to go to the Dome of the Rock. and I’m also doing a hajj this year as well so it made sense to visit Jerusalem as well. My jewish friend is also coming with me, but is it considered “taboo” for a muslim women to travel with a jewish man in israel? I want to respect the culture there. and could you list off any “no-nos” as well? or is it like islamic “no-nos”? Salam!

Resolved Question: Can you believe This True Story ?
I visited Jerusalem for many days , praying most of the time. While returning I saw two Christian hermits going to Damascus. They invited me to join . We traveled for the whole day and stopped at dusk. We prayed separately. Then the senior hermit asked for daily bread, suddenly a big plate full of nice food appeared. They started eating and invited me to join. Next day the junior hermit prayed for daily bread. Again a big plate full of nice food appeared and we ate from it. On the third day the.senior hermit said. “Now it is your turn O Muhammadan to pray for food”. I was an ordinary Muslim and they were saints, but I prayed Allah and a Tray full of nice food descended. But on my second turn no food was sent, but the third time a tray full of food came. Seeing this the hermits said : your religion is an extension of Christianity because God alternates his favor to test us.. We were stuck with one miracle but thanks to you we made the progress. So they accepted Islam. Thank you jonjon. I was short of space. Faith is not static, but a dynamic thing. It can grow or recede. Therefore once a soul engages itself in the path of God, it is tried in so many ways. Like Abraham was required to leave his first born son in the barren peninsula. The hermits earned the miracle of food because of their strong faith in the truth of Jesus. But they were stuck with it. They needed further guidance to progress which was not available because Jesus was no more on earth. God Almighty sent another prophet to fulfill the mission of Jesus, that is establish God’s kingdom on earth. Which he did.

In 1956, scholars from L’Ecole Biblique in Jerusalem set their minds to translating the Scriptures from the original Hebrew, Aramaic, and Greek texts, hoping they could preserve the most sacred Christian traditions and stories. By 1966, the first English-language Jerusalem Bible was published. Since then it has become a favored text for lay readers and scholars alike. The accessible language and richly recounted stories, poetry, and letters in this edition is consistent with previous versions. However, this latest version stands out because of its clear format–clean double columns with easy-to-read type and quick reference headings.
Is it right to kill Satan’s hit man? Would it help God’s work? This installment in the Left Behind series picks up with Rayford Steele–”believer” and international fugitive–as he struggles with a plan to assassinate Antichrist Nicolae Carpathia. Meanwhile, Carpathia has been busy rebuilding roads, airports, and a cellular/solar satellite phone system–all designed to help him become supreme ruler of the world–and even claim himself to be God. We also find ace reporter Buck Williams anonymously preaching to the masses of believers and converts through his cyberspace magazine The Truth. All the believers in the safe house, including Buck, Doc, Chloe, and Tsion, are suspicious of Hattie–former mistress of Carpathia–who claims to be a believer but may have already compromised their secret location when she tried to buy her way to Europe months before.
