@Jodi,

(From post #946686)

Did you put the Jesus on the cross; if so, what did you do that put him there?

ME: Why does your response not speak to what we were directly debating about?

If the prophesy of Isaiah 53 is the words of the apostles giving the report of Jesus as savior to the people then the “our” and “we” most assuredly include the…[Read more]

@Admin,

You: Mankind has a sin problem.
Me: Explain. I would assert it’s more of an obedience problem.

You: It needed a unique solution besides letting our souls die.
Me: So repenting, turning from wickedness, and God forgetting the sin isn’t good enough? What other possible “solution” could be required?

You: God loved us, and didn’t want us…[Read more]

Jodi…….We have born witness of the truth, if they had the true “spirit of the truth”,  abiding in them they would acknowledge it, and be glad,  but our words are a witness against them , that they are not of the truth.

peace and love to you and yours Jodi………..gene

Hi Berean,

Holy means –set apart by our only one true God our Heavenly Father

Before Jesus of Nazareth, a son of David, was even born, long time before that, even before the world began, God set him apart to be the one man where by his righteousness unto obedience we would be set free.

Isaiah 42:1 Behold my servant, whom I uphold; mine elect,…[Read more]

Mankind has a sin problem.

It needed a unique solution besides letting our souls die.

God loved us, and didn’t want us to die.

So the price for death was paid in full for us.

If a virtual world and a computer can evolve from nothing with no programmer, then maybe a universe can come from nothing too.

Berean…….your words,  only show how much you have fallen into false religious teachings, sad!

Romans 5:18  Therefore as by the offence of one judgment came upon all men to condemnation; even so by the righteousness of one the free gift came upon all men unto justification of life.

@ Jodi

You :

Matthew tells us that Jesus said he had to be baptized to fulfill all righteousness. He was purified in the Jordan and then received the Spirit without measure, an anointing to then walk in all the ways of God,

Hi Jodi, you say that Jesus was purified…
What was he purified from?
I wonder.
By placing Jesus in the ranks of…[Read more]

Hi DT,

YOU: Concerning the “mediator”, do I need the Jesus or can I offer praise and thanksgiving directly to God? Can I take my requests directly to HIM or do I need the Jesus as this “intermediator” “working on my behalf”? God says to repent, turn from sin, and HE’LL remember it no more; but christianity says I need the Jesus to be forgiven.…[Read more]

@Proclaimer,

You: God is not a man. He is also not an angel. He doesn’t have a body. He is an eternal spirit.

Me: Can I say DUH!! I have never once stated the contrary. What I have said is God loves HIS creation; why doesn’t christianity understand that? I have never claimed to know or understand why good and bad things happen in the world, t…[Read more]

Did Noah, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Moses, or any of the prophets require a “mediator”? How about the people of Nineveh, did they have a “mediator” when they cried out to God in a loud voice and where forgiven? When did God become so aloof that man was no longer able to come to him? Does God, the creator of everything seen and unseen, suddenl…

Jodi said…..>”Because Jesus was none other than a man and not some sort of godman from heaven, such is exactly why God could forgive our sins through him. God made it for us to see that we could be justified in Jesus because if God can cause righteousness in him, He can also cause righteousness in us. Such is the faith we are to believe in, such i…[Read more]

correction

“Paul directly gives us the faith we are to have in he who was anointed of the Spirit?”

is not supposed to have a question mark but a period.

Hi DT,

I let you know that I haven’t attended a church since I was 18 but the church I was raised up in was very much invested in the OT, I grew up keeping a very strict Seventh Day Sabbath, I ate only clean foods according to the law and I kept God’s Holy Days. The church constantly read the OT and sang songs from Psalms. There was no Trinity,…[Read more]

To All,

Sin = Death and Righteousness = Life

The SOURCE of Righteousness is through our Heavenly Father’s Spirit.

When our Heavenly Father promised unto mankind, even before the world began, eternal life, that was therein also a Promise of His Spirit.

Paul teaches that not only are we saved by the righteousness of one man to whom God’s Spirit…[Read more]
