Jesus the Christ in the Greek. The first Demigod, you know where a women is impregnated by an otherworldly being like and angel, was Imhotep. His father was a God and his mother was a mortal. That was in 2630 BC, a few thousand years before Christ(0) or Abraham(1600 BC) or Moses(1300 BC). As a matter of fact Joseph, of the technicolor coat, was Queene Tye’s father who was Amenhotep IV’s(1375 BC) mother. So the evidence suggests that the Jews(Hebrews) are well conected to the Eqyptians, and the Arabs. Peace

steve if you had one, or the twins typically associated with standard male equipment, you’ve surely stomped a mud hole in it this time. Thanks for the humor, now if you hurry can get in line before they run out of soup!

A similar situation exists regarding the word “Christian” Very early followers of Jesus did not actually have any “name” for themselves and an opponent was apparently the first person to use the word “Christian” to refer to them. The name stuck, and around the Fourth Century, a strict definition was given to the word. The definition was needed then because many groups with very different beliefs were all referring to themselves as Christians. The definition settled on was basically the contents of the Apostles’ Creed and the Nicene Creed. Neither of these two Creeds is actually from the Bible’s text, but they are each considered to be closely based on it, which is the basis for their credibility.

As a noun, Christian is an appellation and moniker deriving from the appellation “Christ”, which many people associate exclusively with Jesus of Nazareth. The first known usage of this term can be found in the New Testament of the Bible, in Acts 11:26. The term was first used to denote those known or perceived to be disciples of Christ.

As an adjective, the term may describe an object associated with Christianity. For many this also means to be a member or adherent of one of the organized religious denominations of Christianity. The term Christian means “belonging to Christ” and is derived from the Greek noun Î§ÏÎ¹ÏƒÏ„ÏŒÏ‚ KhristÃ³s which means “anointed one,” which is itself a translation of the Hebrew word Moshiach (Hebrew: ×ž×©×™×—, also written “Messiah”), (and in Arabic it is pronounced Maseeh Ù…Ø³ÙŠØ). According to the New Testament, those who followed Jesus as his disciples were first called Christians by those who did not share their faith, in the city of Antioch. Xian or Xtian is another word used to describe Christians and is similar to using Xmas in place of Christmas; the X or Xt used as a contraction for “Christ” (”X” resembles the Greek letter Î§ (Chi), the first letter of “Christ” in Greek (Î§ÏÎ¹ÏƒÏ„ÏŒÏ‚ [Christos]).

steve, Christ is Christ, not a Christian. A Christian is a follower or disciple of Christ’s teachings and philosophy.

You all believe that Christ was not the first Christian and I’m wrong? That must be some kind of joke, Right? Peace

Again, steve shows his ignorance. Christ did not come to Earth to supercede the Old Testament, but to fulfill it.

If people do 180 degrees opposite of steve, we will have peace and prosperity.

Steve thinks Christ was a Christian? It’s hilarious when Liberals pretend to know something about religion, isn’t it? Some do, to be sure, but those with the biggest mouths show the greatest ignorance when they open them.

Steve:

Don’t you know that every time a Liberal whines, an Angel laughs its ass off?

I’ll wager that the Iraqi soldiers involved in “Swarmer” will do exceptionally well!

Yes steve just forget aboutthe old testament..... While if you care to think about it any, this is what it holds:

Old Testament Legal (Genesis through Deuteronomy): These first five books describe the creation and fall of humanity, God's plan to redeem the world through Abraham's descendants, and the expression of His holy character, which is most clearly seen in the Mosaic Law. Historical (Joshua through Esther): The next twelve books trace the development, disobedience, downfall, and deliverance of God's people, the nation of Israel. Poetical (Job through Song of Solomon): Beginning with the laments of Job, we move to the psalmists' praise to the Solomon's words of wisdom. Prophetical (Isaiah through Malachi): The prophets called God's people to righteous living and foretold His judgment on those who turned their backs on Him.

Don't forget the Old Testament! Here are the roots of the New Testament and the thematic foundations to the life of Christ.

So you are all about the love of Christ hmm steve. I would take you at your word, but it hasn't been too good around here. Besides, if you trully were, you would not forget and disregard te foundations of the life of Christ.

Since when did you take on Christ’s name as your own steve? The only one you show the slightest bit of concern for is you, devoid of the slightest bit of respect for a single damn thing, you lying hypocrite.

Your constant cycle of Babble copy, that you’ve subscribed to has eliminated the ability, for you and your ilk, to even begin any serious dialogue. You’re lost before you even sit down at the keyboard.

Until you can carry on some kind of adult debate and answer a single question, you’ll be stuck in your self made Hell. Good luck with that.

steve, steve, steve Isaac was not a Jew. He was probably a Hebrew, but the Jews didn’t exist at the time of Isaac.

Do your research, steve. That will keep you out of trouble. Peace! LOL

The “who” I most care about is Christ. You remember him, he was the Christian who put the Old Testament to bed. All of your thinking and your references seus, are the old way. The Good News was that the old way was dead. Leave it to the Zionists to resurrect the old way(armageddonists) for their own political purposes. Abraham had two sons: Isaac the Jew and Ishmael the Father of the Arab Nation. The time has come for reconciliation. Peace
