The assumption of the question was that the sign did happen. You have only basically said such a sign couldn't happen.

How do you the know the old tesament was refering to Jesus?

How do you refute BossJJ's evidential claims that Jesus didn't fulfil the prophecies of the old testament?

Where is BossJJ? He's been AWOL. Doesn't he care about us anymore when we aren't discussing Judaism?

I thought you were referring to Zygote's post and my answer. If you mean my respone to OP then I am saying I don't think God would simply speak in a voice like that to the world with nothing else so in that sense I am saying I would have doubts about such a sign.

If it did happen just the way OP stated I don't know what my reaction would be but I would seriously doubt it was from God. It would depend on the actual event. The Bible does tell us there will be false miracles so I might consider it a fulfillment of that prophecy. Let me know when you expect it to occur and I will be sure to wake up from my nap.

The easiest way to find this is Google it, the net has tons of sites on this.

I don't pay much attention to boss because he's not an honest debater.

I was under the understanding that the main difference between Jews and Christians is that Jews don't accept Jesus as the messiah. Is that correct?

Txaq007 asked non believers if they would become Christians if they could somehow be shown the resurrection really happened. Some said "no", which I believe is the wrong answer.

That's awfully stubborn.

Right, and all the beliefs that go along with believing Jesus is the Messiah.

Jews believe that a Messiah is to come, but that He hasn’t come yet.
