Yes, scripture tells us that man was created in God’s image, what does that mean though? How was man created in the image of God?

You: The passage from Numbers would be important only when a child’s father was from one tribe (e.g., Benjamin), and the mother was from another (e.g., Simeon). The provision to “number” through the father’s lineage was simply a clean, simple way to settle any potential confusion / disagreement. Because if both mother and father were from th…[Read more]

A few years back, I decided to publish my 25 years of research / musings on this doctrine, “Testing the Trinity”.  It is available through most on-line booksellers in either paperback or e-book format, but I also published the full book on-line and free of charge here.

About 2/3 of the book is dedicated to exposing the house of cards that is the…[Read more]

Hi Proclaimer.  Apologies if I’ve already posted this link in this forum before, but here’s my take on the whole Logos question:  The Word of God

@DesireTruth:

Given the supernatural circumstances of Jesus’ birth, how can He be considered to be of the tribe of Judah and therefore qualify to be the Messiah?  Consider the following facts:

• The passage from Numbers would be important only when a child’s father was from one tribe (e.g., Benjamin), and the mother was from another (e.g., Sime…

Hi Berean,

Yes, scripture tells us that man was created in God’s image, what does that mean though? How was man created in the image of God?

My point still stands, Adam and Eve were ignorant, is that what you would consider to be the image of our God? 

Adam and Eve ate of the forbidden fruit BECAUSE they DESIRED TO BE WISE, even they at least…[Read more]

@Gene,

With all the chords that are being struck right now, it’s like a symphony is playing.

Just stop with the vitriol and answer how Jesus is the “messiah” when, according to Numbers 1:2 “all the congregation of the children of Israel, by their families, by their fathers’ houses, according to the number of the names, every male, one by one;”…[Read more]

Adam and Eve were ignorant, they lacked considerable wisdom, understanding, knowledge and fear of YHVH, ALL THINGS to which the man Jesus had been filled with.

Hi Berean,

Adam and Eve were ignorant, they lacked considerable wisdom, understanding, knowledge and fear of YHVH, ALL THINGS to which the man Jesus had been filled with.

DT……RIDDLE  ME THIS  “O” WISE ONE…….Gen 2:2…..> “And the LORD God formed man “OF” the dust of the “GROUND”   and breathe into his nostrils the breath of life: and man became a “living soul “.   That is exactly what a “man” is,  nothing more and nothing less.  A-Man is not a “soul” without a “living body”.

@Gene,

I can ask you the same question of why you’re here; when you peddle your own musings as the only truth. How many times have you told others they are wrong and proceed to explain your religious beliefs as if they are the only truth to be had. Remember you were quite pleased with what I was saying when I first joined; but you never asked w…[Read more]

Hi Jodi,

1 John 5:12 He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life.

DT…..I know David did not ‘write” all of the BOOK OF PSALMS,  I have known that for over 50 years now.  But that particular Psalm we’re talking about,  was direct at David’s descendent, why?,  because David’ s  (body ) did see corruption in the pit i.e grave. BUT Jesus , who said he was the “root and offspring of David”,  did not have his (body)…[Read more]

@Gene,

You: tell us how was Israel’s body marred more then anyone else.

Me: tell me what nationality has been persecuted more than the Israelite nation for just being a descendant of the nation? What nationality suffered the same as the Jewish people did during WWII – think holocaust. What nationality has endured wide spread discrimination eve…[Read more]

@Gene,

You: them (then) you say it was saying the David would not suffer the corruption of his body in the grave

Me: That isn’t what you said was it? Going back to post #946389 what you actually said was: “AND WHAT ABOUT THE SCRIPTURE THAT SAY God would not leave his soul in hell to see corruption?”

Seems you changed your wording to “grav…[Read more]

@Gene,

You: you say the book of Plams was a book written “to” David , instead of DAVID writing it.

Me: For those unaware, this is a reference to Psalm 110 and NOT the entire book of Psalms; a book said to be written by multiple authors and not David alone.

For your viewing pleasure Gene:

Riddle me Gene, what does the Hebrew say? Of David a…[Read more]

Hi Proclaimer and All,

Adam was NOT created perfect, if he was, than he would not be able to sin!

Yes, Adam chose his own way and Jesus chose God’s way, but HOW was Jesus able to walk in all of God’s ways and follow God’s will and not his own?
