Mike

What I told you in my last post does not change.
Jesus is the worker of God the Father, ONE WITH HIM IN ALL THINGS FROM ALWAYS AND FOR ALL ETERNITY. AMEN!

The Antarctic treaty says that anyone can come and explore the continent for whatever scientific purpose. Just do it peacefully. Flat earthers interpret that as nobody is allowed to go there and they’ll shoot you on site… or something.

RUNNING THE RACE

AN AMAZING FACT: The world’s longest certified footrace is the Self-Transcendence 3,100 Mile Race. It’s held in New York City over a 52-day period.
Begun in 1996 by Sri Chinmoy, the Self-Transcendence is a remarkable feat, held annually between June and August. Instead of running a straight 3,100 mile…[Read more]

Flat Earthers, why don’t you go on this trip during summer, and once you’re there you can experience the midnight sun and try and figure out how it’s possible on a flat Earth.

The Moon is a sphere. The Sun is a sphere. Mercury is a sphere. Venus is a sphere. Mars is a sphere. Jupiter is a sphere….so is Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, and loads of moons of those planets.
The obvious question may seem to be why is the Earth not also a sphere when everything else is. But I have an even more obvious question. What stops rocks,…

Carmel:  On the seventh day, according to Exodus 31:17, God “rested and was refreshed.” Why would an omnipotent and inexhaustible God need to be “refreshed”?

Here are some commentaries on it.  I’ve highlighted a few…

Check out the scriptures listed in the bottom right red box.  Both of those psalms imply that God was sleeping and needed to…[Read more]

Carmel:  ESTABLISHED AFTER THE SUN WAS CREATED Genesis 1:16.

Incorrect.  Days were created when God created light and separated the light from darkness – on the FIRST day.

Carmel:  FINE!  BUT ONLY FROM GENESIS 2:5 ONWARD THOUGH!

Incorrect.  Days were days since the very first day – before the creation of the sun, and before Gen 2:5.

There is only…[Read more]

Hi Mike,

You:  1.  The very word, notion, and concept of days was created by God and based solely on the light/dark-sun/earth cycles…ie:

24 hour periods on the earth. The word “days” has no other meaning. 

ME: ESTABLISHED AFTER THE SUN WAS CREATED Genesis 1:16.

DIVINE DAY 4 NOT HUMAN DAYS, 

It’s not like God has His own form of “days” in he…[Read more]

Hi Gene.  I’m still waiting for your direct answer to this question:

GENE, DID A PERSON CREATE THE HEAVEN AND THE EARTH?

Hi Gene, I’ve brought this recent discussion here from another thread to be sure it doesn’t get overlooked by you…

Gene:  Mike……Simply answer,  God who is “in” all things,   is the “only” source of “salvation” for “all” things ,  us, and Jesus himself also.   Saying God the Father uses this or that person, or thing, to bring about his purposes, …

Hi Berean, here goes another stab at it…

Hebrews 1:2 NIV… but in these last days he has spoken to us by his Son, whom he appointed heir of all things, and through whom also he made the universe.

The word CORRECTLY translated as “through” in the NIV is the same Greek word “dia”.  Now watch this…

New Living Translation
and through the Son…[Read more]

See what I told you Berean?  After everything I painstakingly showed you in that last post, I told you that your first instinct would be to quote some translation that says, “BY him all things were created”, right?  And what did you do?  You immediately quoted some translation that says “BY him all things were created” – just like I said you wo…[Read more]

Hi Mike

Sorry, I don’t agree with what you’re telling me about Christ.
All the texts of the Bible do not say that God created the world by the Son, but there are enough to believe that this is THE CASE and in particular Paul to the Colossians.
In this letter, Paul is very eloquent and explicit.
To support that Christ is the image of the invisible…[Read more]

Gene:  Mike……Simply answer,  God who is “in” all things,   is the “only” source of “salvation” for “all” things ,  us, and Jesus himself also.   Saying God the Father uses this or that person, or thing, to bring about his purposes,   makes no difference it’s  still God, and God “alone ” doing it. 

If I can read through your poor grammar and use…[Read more]

Okay Carmel, just went through every single use of each word in scripture.  Tohu can be translated as empty/void/nothingness in each place it is used in scripture.

Bohu can be translated empty/void/nothingness in each place too.  Of course I’m sure you’ll want to see them, right?  Okay, since I have a holiday from work and nothing else to do, he…[Read more]

Berean: Mike

FATHER AND SON HAVE THE SAME NAME….
YOU KNOW THIS NAME

…having his Father’s name written in their foreheads…

Having God’s name written in their foreheads does not mean they will all have the name Yahweh as their own name.  It is a sign that they belong to Yahweh.  But back to the issue at hand…

Psalm 2:2… the rulers gather…[Read more]
