Bhairitu, The answer to that question can be seen in the actions of the disciples of Jesus after he died. If Jesus was fictitious, the story would have ended after his death. But the disciples continued to preach the message in spite of persecutions from the Jews and Romans. It would stand to reason that Jesus existed in Palestine at the time of Herod and Pontius Pilate and had a profound effect on the people he knew. The message was compelling enough to create Christian followers of over a billion people today.

Hepa7 had posted the link to his show in which Johnathan Cahn was interviewed about the Shmita, which I had brought up in an earlier post.< Johnathan Cahn, Michael Brown and other Messianic Jews are explaining Christianity from a *fulfilled* Judaism point of view, where as, traditional Christianity has almost always been heavily influenced by Roman/ Babylonian Solar paganism and most of us never knew it or at least to the extent it is. My own intuition is telling me that this is the future of the church. Jews will be it's leaders and return it to the Messiah's original teaching. If He is returning for His bride, she must be ready. As it is now, the church is more like the whore of Babylon drunken with power and riding the Beast. From: "Bhairitu noozguru@... mailto:noozguru@...

I don't know about Jonathan Cahn but Alex Jones is quite entertaining. I can't stand to listen to FOX News any longer than few minutes and the same for right wing talk hosts like Limbaugh and Hannity. Jones is all over the map politically. He is the product of a liberal Austin family. Though he likes to cater to the Jesus freaks who buy a lot of survival products and shotgun supplements, he's even spouted some Maharishisms regarding consciousness making me think that his trendy parents back in the 1970s learned TM (or maybe even taught it) and little Alex got a walking mantra. I certainly don't agree with Jone's views on Planned Parenthood and the latest rant of "baby parts." I'm all for choice in the matter. But Jones has a wide array of guests among them former Minnesota governor Jesse Ventura who indicated he liked Bernie Sander's campaign. Or Mike Judge, the creator "Beavis and Butthead", the movie "Office Space" and the cult favorite "Idiocracy." Judge even made a promo for Infowars using his "Hank Hill" character's voice from his TV series "King of the Hing." Bill Maher hates 9/11 Truthers but one of his favorite guests is liberal actor Richard Belzer ("Law and Order". And Belzer is also a frequent guest and fan of Alex Jones. In fact in a Skyped interview a couple years ago a visitor at Belzer's house popped into the camera to say hello, Christopher Walken. Jones has also appeared in two Richard Linklater movies "Waking Life" and "A Scanner Darkly". Infowars is basically what we used to call "investigative journalism", something long gone from mainstream media. Try to do that nowadays on mainstream media and you will get a meeting with the "powers at be" as Phil Donahue and Jesse Ventura learned. Greg Palast is a modern day investigative journalist and yes a frequent guest on Infowars. Remember when Jack Anderson used to stir up the powers at be? Sadly we have a new crop of "liberals". They are "liberal" in name only. I used to like to read Raw Story but more and more it has been catering to these confused pseudo- liberals. I used to listen to Thom Hartmann, but after he moved from Portland, Oregon to Washington, DC he seemed to become more a mouthpiece for the DNC. I still read and comment occasionally on his message board. On 08/12/2015 08:05 PM, geezerfreak@... mailto:geezerfreak@...

Sure, I got hoodwinked by a guru when I was young. But I learned from the experience, learned how incredibly easily people can be manipulated. Just as Mahesh appealed to our young egos by making us believe we were really in on saving the world, these idiots like Cahn get rabid followers by appealing to the same ego need to be right there/right now during the biblical end times. Michelle Bachman is practically in ecstasy over the whole thing.
