Bone Box Authentic Afterall?

[Tonio]

My point is, plenty of Christians have argued that God is punishing Jews for the crucifixion of Jesus. To me, that's meanness of spirit.

 

[pixiegirl]

So my question for the day is.... Are all Jews damned? Our (Christians) salvation is based upon our acceptance of our Savior. Jews don't have that Savior? Are they all going straight to hell?

I've always understood that the Jews are "God's Chosen", and that there will be exactly 144,000 of them left to be welcomed into Heaven at the Second Coming of Christ.

As to what happens if they die today? I dunno. :shrug:

 

[Hello6]

So....my question of the day is this: Did anybody else snicker like a Beavis and Butthead when they read "BONE BOX" ?

Not that I ever would. heh heh heh

No. I knew what it was. But I like the way you think.

Anita Bryant used to go around making that claim. And Simpsons creator Matt Groening said there was a Christian group in his high school that went around telling Jewish students they were going to hell.

I don't know how anyone, Christian or otherwise, can agree with or approve of such hatefulness.

Dennis Miller (approximate quote): "The R rating means children under 17 can't see the movie unless accompanied by a parent or guardian. Knowing what a sensitive guy my dad was, that wouldn't have done me any good. 'Daddy, why did that man have to die?' 'Because he was a rat, and all rats have to suck the pipe, baby.' "

Did you snicker when you saw the "Trojan warning" thread?

 

[Hello6]

Yes, I too thought it would be condom warning.

I will not get into this again. It was already discussed. I find it amazing that the same questions keep getting asked as if the answer in the Bible will change. Read Revelation 7:4-8 if you really want to know what the Bible says. I will reiterate that it does not matter what I think, Tonio thinks, pixiegirl thinks, or anyone thinks except God. You may not, from a human point of view, agree with God's word, but it is what Christians have to go on.

I haven't seen it and was curious. I've read ALL of Revelation, understood little of it and retained NONE of it.

Sorry. You know I don't mean to offend you. I just caught so much flack over the last go round that I just didn't want to get it started again. Despite proclaiming the Bible I get, "you're a terrible Christian, you hate, you have no compassion, you're an azz, you're a ..." supply a derogatory remark. I'll PM you.

I thought that 144k of them would accept Jesus as their savior...

For this:

Sorry. You know I don't mean to offend you. I just caught so much flack over the last go round that I just didn't want to get it started again.

Of course, I fall back on this:

Matthew 5:11-12
11"Blessed are you when people insult you and persecute you, and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of Me.

12"Rejoice and be glad, for your reward in heaven is great; for in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you.

So to those that send red and post insults, thank you. You increase my reward in heaven. May God bless you with what you need.

So, back on topic (sorry no offense meant), does anyone know if the box still exists? Has it been opened?

Can you imagine the kinds of fiction that could be written about the descendants of Christ's "siblings"? If you've read "The Da Vinci Code," you'll know what I'm talking about.

I think the key in that is "fiction". Not not religious at all, but one thing I always go on...don't believe fiction as true. I think too many people don't understand that. Would probably make a good story though. I've read the "Da Vinci code", it was pretty good.

Here is a NG article, and one from Time, both of which may be less biased than the politico-religious article posted above. The Box is empty. I did Google search on ossuary, James, Jesus and "bone box" and came up with 881 hits.
