    MR. TWENTY-FIVE PERCENT
    Indonesia’s President Suharto became known by the name “Mr. Twenty-Five Percent,” because he only approved contracts that provided him 25 percent of the profit.

    I think we all know that Indonesia isn’t the only place on earth infected with government corruption. One of the most pre…[Read more]

    Hi Carmel

    Before the Son of God WAS MADE FLESH ON EARTH, HE WAS IN THE FORM OF GOD (SEE PHILIPPIANS 2:6) HE WAS THE FIRSTBORN OF HEAVEN, HE WAS WITH GOD THE FATHER AND HE WAS GOD AND IN HIS IMAGE.( JOHN 1:1/ COL.1:15)

    Hi Berean,

    Me: GOD IS A SPIRIT, and since there was not yet anything created, there was no need for  Jesus’ SPIRIT task as “THE WORD” of  God and mediator between God and His creatures, NO?  Thus, before Jesus was “THE WORD” of God, and God was BOTH SILENT and  A SPIRIT, Isaiah 62:1 the first-ever task by God was to have A  CARRIER, A PHYS…[Read more]

    Hi Jodi

    Based on Phillipans 2
    Jesus gave up his divine attributes for personal use BUT HE USED THEM FOR THE GOOD OF OTHERS ALWAYS IN COMMUNION WITH HIS FATHER.
    HIS DIVINE ATTRIBUTES ARE THOSE OF HIS FATHER.
    SEE COLOSSIANS 2:9

    🙏

    Here is an additional questions for you Berean,

    What attributes of the pre-existing Jesus remained that would then give purpose for sending him down to earth in the first place?

    Thank you!

    There is a partial answer to your question regarding the divine attributes of Christ in my last post…

    👇

    Jodi

    I do not fit into your reasoning which ALWAYS results in denying Christ as creator of all things.

    all things were created by him, and for him:
    And he is before all things, and by him all things consist.

    THIS IS ONE OF ITS…[Read more]

    Hi Proclaimer,

    YOU:

    His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns; and he had a name written, that no man knew, but he himself. And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God.

    Scripture clearly answers this question. Why doubt? Because it doesn’t fit your own understanding?

    Good Morning Berean,

    I have asked you some questions, I’d very much appreciate some answers.

    Tell me what those divine attributes that your pre-existing Jesus left behind were?

    We are told, “the Son of man shall come in the glory of his Father”, what is that glory?

    This is also easy to understand. It is also something you can test for yourself.

    HE WAS IN THE HEART OF GOD !

    BUT NOT WITH HIS HUMAN BODY

    But that’s not really the important point…

    THE NAME OF JESUS IN THE BEGINNING IWAS”THE WORD OF GOD”
    BECAUSE GOD CREATE BY HIM ALL THINGS.
