Hi Berean,
Though I had asked you to find me a passage in the book of Acts that supports your doctrine of Jesus as it pertains to him being our savior, we can certainly discuss Hebrews 1. I would appreciate it if you could actually read the full content of this post and reply specifically to the passages within that I have provided directly or…[Read more]

HIS PRE-EXISTENCE, AND EQUALITY WITH THE FATHER
The fact that Jesus is spoken of as the only begotten Son of God should be sufficient to establish a belief in his divinity. As Son of God, he must partake of the nature of God. “As the Father hath life in himself, so hath he given to the Son to have life in himself.” John 5:26. Life and immo…[Read more]DesireTruth replied to the topic JOHN 1:1 who is the WORD? in the forum Scriptural Teachings 1 year, 9 months ago
@Gene,
Jodi, you accuse me of “not acknowledging that Isaiah 53 is clearly speaking of one individual”; but, you can’t tell me who is speaking where in this chapter, haven’t explained why the singular used here is any different than anywhere else in the Tanakh when God refers to Israel (the nation) as “a son”, AND you haven’t explained how…[Read more]

Still waiting for an answer to where else in the Tanakh it states the Messiah was to be “born of a virgin.” If it’s important, God repeats HIMSELF. The Isaiah 7 passage isn’t Messianic, the sign IS the child being old enough to reject evil and choose good, not the birth as the writer of Matthew wants to claim. Then to say it’s dual prop…[Read more]

Berean…….You still have a problem with, The word (dia) a Greek word which means , “for the purpose of”, as in cause by which something was done, or channel, not as the English word “by” meaning Jesus created the world himself. . Jesus said clearly he could do “nothing” of himself, so how could he create anything himself?

In none of what you said did you give a single passage where God said the Messiah was to be a go between so man can get to God.
You lack understanding, God doesn’t put his full plan in the Old Testament. Rather, he reveals parts of his plan at the right time / season.

You

Hi Berean,
Continuing on,
Highlighting again some biblical facts,
The fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness, righteousness and truth.
To be righteous is to be born of God having his seed remain in you.
Righteousness comes through the Spirit of God, thus one being born of God is being born of His Spirit where that is the seed that must remain…[Read more]

Hi Gene,
Thank you and yes, I am seeing the futility as well conversing with DT. Especially when he cannot acknowledge that Isaiah 53 is clearly speaking of one individual, should have just stopped there, really no point in discussing anything further.
Peace and love to you and yours as well brother Gene

As I very recently told you I am not part of any church, nor have I followed any pastor. I haven’t attended church in over 30 years.
