Will Jesus never come back? ~ Cross reference of Luke 13:34 to Psalm 118:26

Image
Jesus says in Luke 13 that he will not return until Israel says "blessed is he who comes in the name of the lord" I think he meant that they should accept him and welcome him, else he will not return. Jesus claimed he was god's son and that god sent him to redeem mankind from sin by dying on the cross. The Jews did not accept him as the messiah they have been waiting for would be a human not the son of god and their messiah will redeem them from their enemies not sins. I am a bit concerned on what happened to Jesus in the last 2000 years. Let me explain.  In the last 2000 years, Christians made Jesus god and we all know there is ONLY ONE TRUE G-D of the universe who formed everything that exists. Do you think the Jews will ever accept Jesus as god? Off topic but I found something interesting in Luke 13 where a group of Pharisee's advise Jesus to hide as Herod wanted to kill him. Jesus makes a statement that he has 3 days work left and when his goal is reached he will ...

Will we be like angels in the messianic age? ~ Cross reference of Mark 12:26 to Exodus 3:6

Image
Some Sadducees come to Jesus and pose him a scenario where the eldest brother dies before he has children from his wife. In succession each of his 7 younger brothers marry the eldest brothers wife and die without having any children. They ask Jesus which brother will have the right to have the wife when they are risen from the dead. They were testing Jesus as Sadducees do not believe in resurrection. Jesus explains that they are wrong as on resurrection, people will be like angels in heaven. What is not clear if the people will be in heaven or on this earth. He then says that god is the god of the living not dead and I have covered that part in another post. Click here to read it. Here we can focus on the angels part that Jesus said and see if this is what Tanakh says. All Images are links to Google Images. Copyright violations not intended.

We just have to wait and see ~ Cross reference of Matthew 24:30 to Daniel 7:13

Image
Daniel 7 is a true prophesy about the messiah coming during the messianic age and both Christians and Jews agree it has not happened yet. I just hope this happens in our time.

This post is not intended to offend anyone's faith but for those people who are Seeking the truth of THE ONE TRUE G-D of the universe to who we owe all our love, gratitude & devotion. My encouragement to you is that you read the whole chapter of Tanakh that the Greek text quotes so you get the context and understand what G-d actually said. G-d Bless and Seek THE Truth. Matthew 24:30 “Then will appear the sign of the Son of Man in heaven. And then all the peoples of the earth[c] will mourn when they see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven, with power and great glory.[d] 31 And he will send his angels with a loud trumpet call, and they will gathe...

Will Jesus not come back until Israel says "Blessed is he who comes in the name of the lord" ~ Cross reference of Matthew 23:37 to Psalm 118:6

Matthew 23 is explosive where Jesus takes the Pharisees head-on and lays it hard on them for seven issues he saw in them. I will not get into the details of those 7 issues but I think there might have been a few people like that but Jesus saying that all Teachers, Pharisees, scribes and elders is a bit of a stretch. That said toward the end in verse 37 Jesus says that he will not return until Israel accepts him as the messiah [or may be god according to Christians]. Not sure if Jesus actually meant this about his coming back after being resurrected but this verse is the adrenalin for evangelicals to convert Jews to Christianity. Let us see what Psalm 118 is all about and see why Matthew making Jesus quote this verse to seal his decision to not come back unless the Jews accept him is incorrect.
