Adam: Sorry the last verse I have mentioned wrongly as Isaiah 46: in my last post. Please read it as Isaiah 45:5-7
Understood, but since Isaiah 46:9 has the similar language, six of one, half dozen of the other.

Gene: Mike……The simple truth is that you do not understand what the word God “means”. It means a relationship with something it can be anything that exists. Can you understand that? That’s what is tripping you and others up.

For over a decade on HN, Gene has been spouting the same crap over and over, and then running away like a scared little girl whenever anyone corners him on his nonsense – only to pop into another thread a week later posting the SAME CRAP he refuses to stand and defend.
I’ve had enough of it.

Deut 32:8 tells of how Yahweh assigned various gods to watch over various nations, and (many years later) created the nation of Israel from Abram as His very own portion of the peoples of the earth. These other gods that Yahweh assigned to the various nations were not supposed to act as the gods of those people, but to watch over them and teach…

So you see, Adam, there was never any “CHANGE” from polytheism to monotheism in the Bible. It is, from start to finish, the account of one Most High God, the physical world and people that He created, and the other gods that He had created and assigned to teach His humans righteousness, but they taught them evil instead.
From beginning to end,…

Hi Mike,
Created beings are not God and they will never be God.

Adam: The above narration is the evidence of Polytheism in Israel at the time of King Josiah… But this Polytheism was destroyed and mostly removed by this reformist King Josiah in Israel. The change in Biblical texts on religion are clearly visible in Prophetical writings like Isaiah 44-46. One such example is Isaiah 46…
So the Hebrew r…

Monolatry and Monotheism in the Hebrew Bible
In the present form of the Hebrew Bible, before they constitute a sovereign nation within the land of Canaan, the biblical community of Israel agrees at Mt Sinai/Mt Horeb to worship Yahweh ahead of any other gods and not to make any divine images. A small number of texts, found primarily in the…[Read more]

Mike., Yes the word came to be with God because the word was God, just as the word came to be with you because the words you speak are you. Same thing applies with God the Father. God and his word are one and the same thing, just as you and your words are also the same thing. You can not separate you from your words , neither can anyone se…[Read more]

Hello Mike,
You are right in stating that our Bible certainly having the verses about multiple gods which I call Polytheism. For example 2 Kgs 23:
4 The king commanded the high priest Hilkiah, the priests of the second order, and the guardians of the threshold to bring out of the temple of the Lord all the vessels made for Baal, for Asherah, an…

Of course I believe that, Carmel. I not only said it was, but even brought up Gen 2:4 as another example of the same. 🤔🤔🤔
Now answer my questions.

Gene: Mike…..here is the difference between the two words “is” and “was”.
“is”…. is a “present tense” word, It exists that way now, at the time it was spoken about.
‘was”.. is a “past tence” word, It came be, that way from a past, Before it was being spoken about.
Do we at least agree on that, if not there is no way we could ever resol…

Carmel, I’m also waiting for your example of the plural word “days” referring to something other than literal days.
If there is no clear example, then Exodus 20:11 and 31:17 (“in six days Yahweh made”) make it undeniably clear that heaven, earth and everything in them were made in six literal days.
This challenge is also for Gene and Pretender…[Read more]

Genesis 2:4… This is the account of the heavens and the earth when they were created, when the LORD God made the earth and the heavens.

Danny: Hi Mike,
Well just to be fair to the Trinitarians, they do believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God.
That doctrine is the epitome of nonsense. If “God” is a Godhead of Father, Son, and Spirit, then Jesus is the Son of “Father, Son, and Spirit”… ie: Jesus is HIS OWN Son! 😂
But we’ve been having that discussion on every thread he…[Read more]

Adam: Early Israelite religion grew out of earlier religions, “pagan” religions, just as they had done. And out of it, eventually, grew the more modern God of late Israelite religion (Judaism), a single, transcendent all-powerful, all-knowing God—the God of Jews, Christians, and Muslims.
You keep claiming this same nonsense, and I keep asking…[Read more]

Yet I already showed you that Jesus wasn’t speaking in a possessive sense, right? Neither was the Father in Ps 82. So it appears that it is not my obstacle, but yours.
