ent prophecy in the Old Testament,
either one of which being fulfilled,
would cancel the other; and that the
prophecies concerning the perpetuation
of the Jewish nation and the throne Of
David with unparalleled splendor.
were cancelled by the fulfillment Of
those concerning the rejection Of
Christ. God sent Jesus in good faith,

Is the world getting better or worse?
Verse when people oppose the
work of God do they generally confine
themselves to the truth In their OBJ
jections. or do they ever confine them
selves to the truth?
Do DIRECTORS to the truth knowingly
