Antichrist and the Red Heifer

• Messages sorted by:[ date ][ thread ][ subject ][ author ]

As is usually the case in flame wars, the root is not what either
party has said, but what the other party understood.

As I understand it, Bro. Foster quoted a scripture that stated that
anyone who does not believe that Jesus was the Mesiah was antichrist.
Please note carefully the lowercase "a"!  From the Greek, this simply
means "against Christ".  This is not the same thing at all as the man
of perdition -- Antichrist with a capital "A".

Bro. Foster was using scripture to point out that any non-Christian
was against Christ.  I see no antisemitism here, although I see how
this could be mis-read also.

Please correct me if I am wrong here.
