What are the primary connotations of the Nimrod character according to the Bible?
Genesis 10:8-10 ESV Cush fathered Nimrod; he was the first on earth to be a mighty man. He was a mighty hunter before the Lord. Therefore it is said, “Like Nimrod a mighty hunter before the Lord.” The beginning of his kingdom was Babel, Erech, Accad, and Calneh, in the land of Shinar.
1 Chronicles 1:10 ESV Cush fathered Nimrod. He was the first on earth to be a mighty man.
What does the name actually suggest in religious, spiritual, moral, ethical and political terms?
2 AnswersReligion & Spirituality5 days agoThe Biblical Nimrod was never rebellious against God, because the Bible doesn't actually say that he was rebellious. True or false?
1 Chronicles 1:10 ESV Cush fathered Nimrod. He was the first on earth to be a mighty man.
Genesis 10:8-10 ESV Cush fathered Nimrod; he was the first on earth to be a mighty man. He was a mighty hunter before the Lord. Therefore it is said, “Like Nimrod a mighty hunter before the Lord.” The beginning of his kingdom was Babel, Erech, Accad, and Calneh, in the land of Shinar.
Nowhere, in the Bible does it actually say that "Nimrod was rebellious towards God", but the very idea of "rebellion" is based on an EXTRA-BIBLICAL source by the 1st century AD writer and historian, Josephus, which therefore has no Biblical authority whatsoever.
Moreover, it is utterly absurd, incorrect and ridiculous to compare Jesus with this UNBIBLICAL account of Nimrod by Josephus, because Philippians 2 has clearly stated that "Jesus was obedient to God unto death" and Revelation 19 has also stated that Christ is God's "Chosen and faithful one", which refutes any absurd claim that "Jesus was rebellious towards God".
Since Jesus is the Son of God, and therefore is God Himself in the flesh the very suggestion that "Christ was rebellious towards God" is totally false, absurd and ridiculous (John 14:7).

6 AnswersReligion & Spirituality5 days agoThe Chief Executive Officer seldom owns the corporation. True or false?
Most of the corporate stock is owned by private investors who have hired proxy managers to be on the Board of Directors in order to act on their behalf and to represent their interests.
Consequently, the CEO is like any other manager, insofar as he may or may not be a majority stockholder within the corporation.
But it is a fundamental mistake to assume that the CEO is always a majority stockholder within the corporation.

Why should it make any difference at all?
1 AnswerPolitics5 days agoGod can do whatever he wants without any regard for the consequences. But the Government cannot act with impunity. True or false?
Revelation 19
7 Let us be glad and rejoice and give Him glory, for the marriage of the Lamb has come, and His wife has made herself ready.”
8 And to her it was granted to be arrayed in fine linen, clean and bright, for the fine linen is the righteous acts of the saints.
19 And I saw the beast, the kings of the earth, and their armies, gathered together to make war against Him who sat on the horse and against His army.
20 Then the beast was captured, and with him the false prophet who worked signs in his presence, by which he deceived those who received the mark of the beast and those who worshiped his image. These two were cast alive into the lake of fire burning with brimstone.
21 And the rest were killed with the sword which proceeded from the mouth of Him who sat on the horse. And all the birds were filled with their flesh.
In actual fact, it is false to suggest any situation of mutual assured destruction in the War of Armageddon, whereby Christ is clearly the Victor to the detriment of all His enemies who are vanquished.
Due to asymmetry, the consequences are not borne by both sides, but only by those who are vanquished.
Consequently, God will still do what He pleases regarding Marriage of the Lamb, which is inextricably tied with the Victory of Christ over his enemies, which is why the two are mentioned together within the same chapter in Revelation.

1 AnswerReligion & Spirituality2 weeks agoChina would never dare to threaten trade or economic sanctions against any nation within the European Union. True or false?
Simply, because the European GDP is still superior to any other GDP in the world.
Trade war against Europe would be much more harmful to China than its recent trade war with America, simply because the European GDP is still superior to US GDP, and therefore, Europe can still inflict more harm than America could.
China attacking any nation in the Union by imposing economic sanctions would elicit a collective response by all the countries within the Union, but China could never withstand any sanctions by the EU.
Because the European GDP is much stronger than the China GDP.
Imagine head on collision between a Juggernaut and a much smaller vehicle.
Consequently, there is no way that China could ever threaten economic sanctions against any nation state within the European Union for fear of the severe consequences.
True or false?
Politics2 weeks agoIsrael is more vulnerable than any country inside the European Union. True or false?
Israel is more vulnerable to trade and economic sanctions than any country inside the European Union.
Because Israel is not a member of the Union it is not protected by EU trade sanctions in response to economic sanctions by the emergent economies such as India or China, etc.
However, the European nations tend to be less vulnerable than Israel because the EU can always retaliate by a collective response against trade sanctions by the developing countries such as India or China.
Because European GDP is still superior to any other GDP, and therefore, European nations aren't easily intimidated by the Third world N i g g e r nations such as India or China.

1 AnswerPolitics2 weeks agoThe beast is English slang used to describe any high profile politician who is alive during the Second Coming of Christ. True or false ?
The "beast" described in the Book of Revelation is not necessarily an "Antichrist" evil person who is on the side of Satan in the War of Armageddon, but it could be "any high profile politician" who is alive during the End Times, which includes Jesus himself.
Since Revelation was written by John who was heavily under the influence of the Holy Spirit it means that God is the ultimate author of this book.
Consequently, God had written Revelation during the 1st century AD, based on his perfect foresight of the future development of the English language, including English idioms and slang words.
Therefore, Revelation was written in the 1st century AD with a view to the future development of 'new' English slang in the latter Twentieth century.
Thus, the word, "beast" is an accurate description of "any high profile politician" who is during the Second Coming of Christ, which includes Jesus himself.
Hence, the "beast" simply means "any high profile politician", but such a public figure is not required to be an "Antichrist" evil person who is on the side of Satan in the War of Armageddon.
Lastly, there is more than one beast as attested by the Story of the First and Second beast in Revelation 14.

1 AnswerPolitics2 weeks agoNobody actually believes that the Germans had invaded themselves by invading the other nations in Europe during WW2. True or false ?
Such an argument presupposes that the only legitimate invasions would be Western nations against the developing nations in Africa and Asia, but this argument is patently false because the nations of Europe have invaded each other since the dawn of civilisation.
Nobody seriously thinks that the nations of Europe are invading themselves by invading their neighbours in Europe.
For the French, Germans and Russians never had any qualms at all about establishing their respective empires in Europe to the detriment of other nations.

Ultimately, you are just trying to buy your people with more time to recover, but I am relentlessly in pursuit of the enemy, and am determined to kill the enemy.
