Jesus Christ was a False Prophet for he told lies about when he would return again
Jesus Christ, the assumed founder of Christianity, is believed by that religion
to be more than just a prophet of God but God himself. Because he was God, Jesus
knew all things and could see events in the future before they happened.
Let us assume Jesus existed.
Jesus claimed that he could see into the future and reveal events that have not
happened yet.
Jesus said that the Law of Moses was infallible scripture without error and that
the Bible stories of Adam and Eve and Jonah eaten up by the big fish and the
flood are all true.
We know today they are not. A prophet who is wrong about the past is worse than
one that is wrong about the future. Jesus had a mean streak praising the Law for
it was a cruel Law.
Jesus had no pre-vision of the future at all. He prayed that there would be one
flock and one shepherd when he would fetch his other sheep which was an absolute
impossibility with the lack of clarity and lack of coherence in the Bible and
conflicting tradition so he couldn’t expect much more than a fragmented flock.
He also said that his words would not pass away though heaven and earth could.
But there is nothing impressive about his words and many times he is ambiguous
so why would God be that keen to preserve his words? The apostles had to decide
the theology of the Church not him and do the spin-doctoring so he could have
been the dumbest guy ever. Dumb or whatever, he was certainly arrogant.
In Deuteronomy 18, God says that even if a prophet is always right except in one
instance that prophet is a fake for God is never wrong. Such a prophet had to be
put to death by stoning.
Israel had seen plenty of false prophets throughout its long history. In Jesus
Christ it saw another.
Christianity following the gospels believes the Son of God became a man and this
coming was the first coming and the second coming is when he returns to judge
the world and will be seen by all.
Jesus was a false prophet for he promised to visibly return on the clouds of
Heaven like a god in the first century and did not.
Jesus was asked by his apostles when the end of the age would come and when he
would return to the earth. The disciples asked Jesus to list the signs that
would herald that the second coming was imminent. He prophesied that Jerusalem
would be destroyed and the sun and moon would turn black and that the stars
would drop out of the sky when he is as near as “someone at the door” (Matthew
24:36, 42-44).
To say as Christians do that he was only predicting the destruction of Jerusalem
not the end of the world when his second coming would take place would be to say
he never answered this question. But if the gospellers really thought that they
would have left the question out and what Jesus said. They were editing after
all. Plus Jesus did answer the question because he said that the signs would
indicate the end of the world and his coming like you can tell when summer is
near from a fig tree.
Some even say that the prophecy meant the invisible coming of Christ and the
start of a new era with the end of the old on the day of Pentecost when the Holy
Spirit came down on the Church and the Church was founded properly. But that
contradicts what Jesus said and there is no evidence for it in the Bible.
Pentecost was presented as the coming of the Holy Spirit not Jesus.
Some feel that as the Old Testament prophets predicted the day of
the Lord being imminent when they clearly visualised it being some
time off that Jesus was the same. But all those prophets made
their warning conditional on enough people repenting. Jesus
did not. He was clear that the response to his message was
terrible. We are told that Jesus gave a lot of teaching
showing that he expected people to be around long enough to live it.
This is not true either as Mark the earliest gospel and arguably the
most accurate gives no hint of Jesus warning people to be practical.
And Matthew and Luke give loads of unrealistic teachings that only
make sense if the world is about to go up in smoke.
A growing number of Christians believe that Jesus meant all this stuff about the
imminence literally (www.geocities.com/Nashville/Opry/2092/False.html, Was Jesus
Christ a False Prophet?). They point to Romans 13:12 which says the night is
nearly over and the day is nearly there meaning the day of the start of the
kingdom. Hebrews 10 says Jesus is coming in a little while and uses the same
word that appears in John 14:19 for a short time showing it means what it says.
John 12:31 has Jesus saying the world will be judged NOW and uses the Greek word
nun which means immediately or presently. Another word Mello which means about
to happen is used several times in relation to the imminence of the coming of
the kingdom. The word appears in reference to other things (Acts 18:14; Acts
28:6) and in contexts that show it means what it says. The Bible never uses it
any other way. The New Testament says a few times that the kingdom will come as
in tachos meaning a little while. 1 John 2:17-18 says it is the last hour.
The Christian solution to this false prophecy is that the kingdom is a spiritual
or perhaps invisible kingdom of God on the basis of Jesus saying his kingdom was
not one of this world (John 18:36). But that was not the same as meaning it was
just a spiritual kingdom. At that time Jesus had no earthly kingdom but was
ruler in Heaven and it could be that when this kingdom comes to earth the
present political systems have to be taken away and a new one under Jesus set
up. Luke 17:20 may have Jesus saying that the kingdom of God is not to be seen
by signs but is already among you but that does not mean the kingdom is just
spiritual either. It only means that you have to break with all that is not in
accordance with the kingdom so that you are part of the kingdom and living in it
before it is politically set up. He wants people to join the kingdom now instead
of holding on until signs come and the visible one is set up. So the Christians
give a solution that is not in the Bible! Jesus was a false prophet. Also, if
they really believe Jesus said it was just a spiritual kingdom then how do they
explain the New Testament saying this kingdom was imminent for when it was
spiritual it had to have been already there and Jesus had been declaring people
members of the kingdom? They cannot and hopelessly contradict themselves. Plus
their interpretation ignores the fact that Jesus said that signs in the sun and
moon and stars and the visible coming of the Son of Man were imminent and
heralded the coming of the kingdom and the end of the age meaning the end of the
world.
Jesus said that the time was kept from all people and even that the angels of
Heaven and strangest of all, even himself (Mark 13:32). He said only God knew.
So only God knows. Some say that knows here means to make known. Spin-doctor St
Augustine of Hippo said that.
Jesus said in Matthew 24 that no one knows and in the next line he declared that
this no one included earth people who could be completely surprised. It is
twisting the text to say no one just means the people in Heaven for this is not
likely.
Do you really think that with the angels being the perfect servants of God that
Jesus would say the angels don’t know as in can’t make known but only God can?
God will not make it known for Jesus said it was a shock and it will be sudden.
There will be no warning. Augustine was lying because he was ashamed that a
gospel said that Jesus didn’t know everything while the Church wanted him to be
declared to be the all-knowing God.
Jesus thought that God did not trust him or the angels when he would tell them
nothing or not let them tell if you accept Augustine’s bizarre claim about the
word know.
God kept the exact time from humankind for people would not be afraid to wallow
in sin if they knew the exact time (Matthew 25). The living will be judged
according to the state they are in when it happens and won’t be able to change
just like those who die in grace or sin will never change again. This is why
sinners have to fear the second coming for it will fix their wills and put them
in Hell forever. Otherwise, it wouldn’t for they could repent when they see
Jesus floating on the clouds of Heaven speeding to the ground.
But if God hides the time for the sake of our morals then why did he tell us not
to expect Christ until after the world has been evangelised? (Mark 13:10). This
hasn’t happened yet and because of Islam which is impervious to Christian
missionaries it won’t either for a long, long time. Jesus prophesied that God
hid the time and then prophesied the opposite!
Jesus told his apostles that the generation they belonged to not a future one
would see the signs he spoke of and watch him return (Mark 13:30). Jesus
couldn’t have told them to watch for the signals without lying to them if he
meant a future generation (Mark 13:35-37). He said “this generation” would see
the signs. Cranks say he did not mean the apostles’ generation but the last one,
the one that would see the signs! But they are denying the most likely meaning
of the texts when you drop all preconceived ideas. Jesus spoke as if he meant
the apostles’ generation so he did mean it. Christians will pervert the word of
Jesus that they pretend to respect.
Other cranks say that the references to generation are not literal for when
Jesus referred often to a wicked generation in several places (eg Matthew 17:17)
that he meant unbelieving Israel of all time (page 65, Whatever Happened to
Heaven?). In other words, he meant "this race" by "this generation". There is
nothing in the expression or similar expression such as perverse generation or
faithless generation that hints of that interpretation. Israel of all time is
not a generation. His saying that the blood of the past martyrs will be required
at the hands of the generation he was a part of allegedly backs up the
non-literal interpretation of generation for the Jew’s of Jesus’ day alone could
not be punished for that. But God cannot punish freely in this world because
there are so many factors to take into consideration. He would have to let one
generation of Israel off lightly and be harder on another though it is no worse
depending on how it affects his divine plan.
Christian liar, the theologian, C. I. Schofield manipulated the Bible text. Where
the gospel used genea, the word for generation, he lied that the word was genos
which means race. Genea means the Jews who were on the planet with Jesus when he
spoke - period.
Christians only come up with their outlandish explanations to cover up the fact
that Jesus was proven to be wrong. Any fake could be declared a true prophet
despite all his or her errors with manoeuvres like that.
In Mark 13, Jesus says that nation will rise against nation and there will be
intolerable suffering – he means that there will be worse than ever before for
he would look stupid if he just vaguely predicted wars and calamities for these
will always be with us. And he told the apostles to look after themselves when
they see this and that they will be beaten in the synagogues (v9). This proves
he meant the men standing before him for what chance have modern Christians of
being beaten in the synagogues? Synagogue was used to translate the Aramaic
word, kenishta, which precisely meant the Jewish meeting-house (Synagogue, Bible
Dictionary and Concordance, New American Bible).
In Luke, we read that Jesus said that he would come back on the clouds of Heaven
and that the present generation would not pass away until it happened (Luke
21:31, 32). Christians say this was not that generation but the one that will
see the signs that Jesus is returning. The context rules out this for it has
Jesus telling his hearers to watch and not to corrupt themselves so that they
will be ready. The verse before says, “When you see these things taking place,
understand and know that the kingdom of God is at hand”. To say the you refers
to us or some future generation is to torture the text. He said that he was
revealing this so that it would be known that he was at the doors. This would
not be the case if he meant a future generation. He meant the one he belonged
to. And we know that his generation did not see his return in glory.
Jesus said that when the world crisis that will take place before the end
transpires that “you” must not be worried or scared for the end will not come
yet (Luke 21:9). If Jesus had a future generation in mind this would mean
nothing for the world has often been in grave trouble. He had to have been
referring to some great upheaval that his listeners would see and understand
when it came that this was it and which he was telling them was coming prior to
the end. So are “you” suppose to know that the end time wars have started? The
clue comes in his assertion that some of them will be killed before that
happens. That alone can be the clue. The passage makes no sense as a warning
unless it is clear when the end time wars have started. Therefore we see that
when some of Jesus’ disciples in front of him and listening to him are
persecuted and killed meaning the ones standing before him for disciples have
been persecuted and killed every year since so you know who alone it can be we
see that Jesus predicted the end of the world before the deaths of all the
people living then. He proved to be a false prophet. The fact that the prophecy
was not corrected properly when his prediction failed does not prove that the
gospels had an early origin - but that either there were other copies in unknown
locations and the Church was forced to decide to leave them as they were or that
the gospels were so well hidden that even those who had access to them did not
study and think about them thoroughly. The Christians have never thought much as
their acceptance of the gospels proves.
In the middle of his guesses about the end-times, Jesus said that under the
final persecution that his disciples must not prepare their defence beforehand
for his Spirit would bestow an eloquence and a wisdom that nobody could
contradict. This man taught a mysterious morality that conflicted with human
reason so his promise that they would clear themselves from accusations of
practicing an evil bigoted and wacky morality was false. Even Jesus’ basic moral
doctrine, the command of forgiveness was evil not in itself but because it was
part of a morality that would condemn gays for harmless sexual acts so it acts
as an advertisement for Jesus and his eivl morality so it is fake forgiveness
and an abomination. Jesus said elsewhere that they would be hated by all over
him so his promise was not much good to them. The error proves that Jesus was a
false prophet.
It is alleged that Josephus The Wars of the Jews written in 75 AD, in its Book
20, Chapter 8, Fifth Section, shows that Matthew 24 was entirely fulfilled.
Josephus recorded a star looking like a sword that was evidently a comet for
comets look like swords and visions of chariots and soldiers appearing in the
clouds and earthquakes and noises and lights appearing around the Temple and its
altar. Though nothing Josephus wrote makes much of a fulfilment of what Jesus
said and Jesus did not come again as soon as the signs were past like Matthew 24
predicts it indicates that Josephus influenced the gospels so they all appeared
after 75 AD. Perhaps the gospellers did believe the second coming took place
then. If so they may have thought that only a few saw their Jesus. Perhaps only
a few as well knew of his ministry on the earth since. Lots of people see
visions in times of great persecution.
Jesus claimed he spoke plainly. His audience was made up of ordinary people. Most of them were teenagers and young for people did not live long then. Theologians coming along with complicated "explanations" to get around the problems of his predictions is simply unjust and disingenuous. Jesus predicting that the end of the world was only days away was meant literally.
