JUSTIN MARTYR ON ISAIAH 7:14

I shall be extracting segments from Justin Marty’s work Dialogue with Trypho the Jew, which deal particular with Justin’s exegesis of Isaiah 7:14 as it relates to the virginal conception and birth the Messiah.

THE VOICE OF YHVH APPEARS

JUSTIN, RESURRECTION & 1,000 YEAR REIGN

ATHANASIUS ON THE ANGEL OF GOD

LUTHER, CALVIN & THE MASS

In this post I will cite from both Martin Luther and John Calvin admitting that the Eucharist was viewed to be Christ’s propitiatory sacrifice by the Church universally, with Calvin virtually admitting that this has been the belief from time immemorial. Calvin even dared to claim that this was

CATECHISM, ISRAEL & ANTICHRIST
