    Carmel: According to Google fight,

    back in the days seems more popular:

    1,800,000,000 against 584,000,000.

    OK, Mike “back in the days” is more popular by THREE TIMES AS MUCH!

    I see 584 MILLION votes for “back in the day”, Carmel.  So your claim that Jesus (or whoever) MUST use “days” instead of “day” is baseless.  The fact that more people p…[Read more]

    Carmel: So when God refers to “days,” does he want us to mentally substitute the word “eons” or “ages”? No.

    Does he want us to think of precise units of time, marked by 24 exact hours as the earth makes a rotation on its axis? No.

    Does he want us to think of the Hebrew workday? Yes, AS YOU SAID, 

    BUT in an analogical and anthropomorphic…

    You answered:  “NOT PRECISELY”, and then tried to go down yet another irrelevant tangent about how it means something different when heaven is mentioned before earth than it means when earth is mentioned before heaven.  No more tangents until you elaborate on your “NOT PRECISELY” answer.

    Mike,

    The word “god” is an idea, a position, not a being. It is a position that can be assigned or a position that is inherently assumed. In the case of the Father and son, it is inherently assumed since they are of eternal essence and before all things.

    Mike,

    The passage in Zechariah is tied to Jesus as the one who is valued as 30 pieces of silver which ends up buying the Potter’s Field by the writers of the NT, not me. And the one who is valued at 30 pieces of silver is Yahweh in Zechariah and Jesus in the NT.

    Mike:  I guess I’m asking if you truly believe that the wording in this passage offers support for a “Yahweh Unity” – a singular living being comprised of multiple persons.

     

    LU:  Hi Mike,

    Where did I say that a Yahweh Unity is “a singular living being” comprised of multiple persons?

    Danny: Hi LU,

    You started a very good thread.
    According to Psalm 2:2 and Acts 4:26 Yahweh is the Father
    of Jesus Christ.
    How can Yahweh be a unity of Father and Son, if Yahweh is the Father
    of Jesus Christ?

     

    LU:  Look in this verse which seems to be Yahweh as the Son:

    Mike,

    Yahweh is one God comprised of two persons.

    Like one coin which has two sides, each side looks different and represents different things. Each side of the coin needs to have the other side in order to be what it is…a coin of highest value (for the sake of the analogy.) Each side is referred to as a coin. If you see a coin on the ground, w…[Read more]

    Mike: But they ARE two different gods, right? Because if the father is a god and the son is a god, and they are two different individual beings, then there is no other option except for them to be two different individual gods, right?

    Whether they act in unison (united in purpose) or not, they’d still be two completely different individual go…
