Open Conversation Part 1
So I've decided to bring the "Kathy" series to an end. However, we've had some fun in those threads when the conversation has gone off into interesting tangents, so I'd like to keep that part of it going for anyone who's interested. These new threads will no longer focus on Kathy or the things we… Continue reading Open Conversation Part 1
Tyre by the Numbers
I just finished my series on Ezekiel's prophecy of Tyre, and in one of the comments, we started discussing Ezekiel's accuracy percentage. One commenter rounded off the accuracy to about 75%, which I thought was a bit high. This site gives Ezekiel about a 67% accuracy. But thinking of percentages made me curious, so I… Continue reading Tyre by the Numbers
An Examination of Ezekiel’s Prophecy of Tyre: Part 5
Now that we've actually covered Ezekiel's prophecy of Tyre in detail, I'd like to make some closing observations. The Track Record For a moment, let's consider the way the Old Testament god operates. He does nothing halfway. One of the examples that really stands out to me is the story of Elijah versus the 450… Continue reading An Examination of Ezekiel’s Prophecy of Tyre: Part 5
An Examination of Ezekiel’s Prophecy of Tyre: Part 4
In this study so far, I've argued that Ezekiel's prophecy against Tyre fails on the surface, since he claimed Tyre would be utterly destroyed and never rebuilt and that didn't happen. We've also covered a brief history of Tyre, and we've examined the first 6 verses of the prophecy and determined that the prophecy is… Continue reading An Examination of Ezekiel’s Prophecy of Tyre: Part 4
An Examination of Ezekiel’s Prophecy of Tyre: Part 3
In the first post, I argued that this prophecy simply fails at face value. Ezekiel predicted that Tyre would be completely destroyed and never rebuilt, yet that didn't happen. Tyre experienced a long history of both prosperity and calamity, and today, it's the 4th largest city in Lebanon. In the second post, I briefly recounted… Continue reading An Examination of Ezekiel’s Prophecy of Tyre: Part 3
Kathy Part 5
After breaking 1000 comments on the previous thread, I felt it was a good time to start another. As a reminder, here are some of the most recent outstanding questions for Kathy: From Laurie: You said you answered my questions, and wish more questions were asked. Here are some questions that were not addressed. Matt… Continue reading Kathy Part 5
An Examination of Ezekiel’s Prophecy of Tyre: Part 2
In the previous post, I argued that this prophecy simply fails at face value. Ezekiel predicted that Tyre would be completely destroyed and never rebuilt, yet that didn't happen. Tyre experienced a long history of both prosperity and calamity, and today, it's the 4th largest city in Lebanon. In this post, we'll examine that history… Continue reading An Examination of Ezekiel’s Prophecy of Tyre: Part 2
An Examination of Ezekiel’s Prophecy of Tyre: Part 1
In the last few weeks, I've had to delve back into a subject that I haven't spent much time researching since my initial deconversion. Ezekiel's prophecy of Tyre, which can be found in Ezekiel 26-28, was a major piece of evidence for me in showing that the Bible was not as accurate as I had… Continue reading An Examination of Ezekiel’s Prophecy of Tyre: Part 1
Kathy Part 4
I may live to regret this, but I've decided to extend this never-ending conversation once again. Kathy, this time, it would be a nice change of pace if you would actually address what William has repeatedly been saying to you: I have. Not saying i’m perfect at it or that I’m right, but the “evidences”… Continue reading Kathy Part 4
