Gene,

My suggestion to you is to learn Greek. If you were to understand the word “dia” and how to translate it correctly with a word in the accusative Greek case or the genitive Greek case, you would not be continually trying to tell us that “dia” means “because of” or “on account of.” Dia only means that when followed by a word in the genitive…[Read more]

Proclaimer quoted Origen:

He uses the article, when the name of theos refers to the uncreated cause of all things, and omits it when the Word is named theos.

I don’t believe that Origen’s explanation that you quoted above is consistent with the “theos” who hasn’t been “seen” in John 1:18 which does not have the article unless we are to believe…[Read more]

It’s clear from the Hebrew Bible that one day all the world will turn to Jewish God as per Zech 8:

Thus says the Lord of hosts: In those days ten men from nations of every language shall take hold of a Jew, grasping his garment and saying, “Let us go with you, for we have heard that God is with you.”

No one can go to the Father withou…[Read more]

Hi Adam,

Do you believe that all the Jews understand the scriptures exactly alike? When did that start?

Danny…..Believe Jesus,  he said he is the root and “offspring” of David.  Jesus never said he was alive ” sentinel ”  Being , before Abraham.  There are a lot of teachings about a “PREEXISTING”  Jesus out there, like when he said he was sent from above, that is true God who is in heaven above did send him out into the world to preach the Gospel…[Read more]

Danny…….it’s not because he is the only begotten son,  it’s because the Spirit of God the Father “dwells” “IN” Him.  Because a person has the Spirit of God “in” him , does not make him a God. Jesus while on this earth had all seven Spirits of God in him, but said he could do “NOTHING” OF HIMSELF.  YOU OR ANYONE CAN HAVE, those Spirits ( cognisiti…[Read more]

@t8

Hi Proclaimer,

I still have a hard time to understand the begotten aspect of Jesus.
We both believe that Jesus shares the exact same nature as His Father.
Because He is His only begotten Son.
Well then how can we consider Him to be a lesser god?
Do you have a child, Proclaimer?
If so, then can you honestly say that your child is a lesser…[Read more]

Mike……you say Jesus is a Spirit,  but Jesus said clearly he was not a Spirit.  “Far a spirit has not flesh and bone as you see I have’. , that was said “after”  his resurrection. Scripture says his soul would not see corruption. So when did this transfer, between flesh to spirit take place?
You say,  Jesus said I existed before Abraham,  scripture…[Read more]

Hi Proclaimer

That means he is not the Son of YHWH then.

Does it sound like denial of the Son?

Neither Proclaimer.

In the beginning, the only begotten Son of the Father is able to create (John1:3)what the Father wanted from all eternity for his children (Jesus included)

YHVH IS THE NAME OF GOD THE FATHER AND ALSO OF THE SON.

THIS NAME…[Read more]

Hi LU
@Proclaimer,
You said:
Jesus is not the creator, God is. 

Do you think that the Son was just a passive bystander during the creation process? That is not what the Father says of the Son. He identifies the Son as YHVH who laid out the foundation of the world and the heavens are the works of the Son’s hands. Heb 1. 
 

AMEN LU!

THAT’S WHA…[Read more]

Hi To all

DOESN’T THE SENTENCE “FLASHING FIRE” INDICATE THAT THE FIRES OF HELL WILL NEVER EXTINGUISH?

Daily devotions

A fire that does not go out is a fire that cannot be put out. Once he has started his labor, nothing can stop him. Likewise, when the fires of hell begin, no amount of water can extinguish the flames. The question to ask is:…[Read more]

Hi Adam,

You: It’s quite interesting to see that a non-trinitarians can say Amen to a Trinitarian’s post.

Me: I’m not a Trinitarian.
I haven’t made up my mind yet. I’m still learning.

All I’m sure of and what I believe is that Yahweh is the Most High God.
And Jesus Christ is His beloved Son.

Danny. You have declared like Peter who Jesus is.

The Son of Man Must Be Lifted Up
27 “Now is my soul troubled. And what shall I say? ‘Father, save me from this hour’? But for this purpose I have come to this hour. 28 Father, glorify your name.” Then a voice came from heaven: “I have glorified it, and I will glorify it again.” 29 The crowd that stood there and heard it said that it had thundered.…[Read more]

The son of “man”, Jesus was not and is not, the God that was “IN” him.

Correct.

Now that this is sorted, focus on the Word.

The Word was with God, was divine, became flesh, and was beheld as the Son of God for our eyes to see and ears to hear.

He was with God in the beginning, emptied himself, came in the flesh, was obedient to God, died, r…[Read more]

“We next notice John’s use of the article in these sentences. He does not write without care in this respect, nor is he unfamiliar with the niceties of the Greek tongue. In some cases he uses the article, and in some he omits it. He adds the article to the Word, but to the name of theos he adds it sometimes only. He uses the article, when the nam…[Read more]

I would need to check this, but I think an earthquake can be yahweh too.

Once again, a difference between identity and nature.

If Jesus Christ is the Messenger of YHWH, then there is plenty.

Gene, you are unable to grasp that there are many theos, but for US, there is one theos the Father.

But I will explain it for the readers.

Theos like Adam is a person but can also be used to describe nature.

For example, Eve is adam (mankind) but she is not Adam (the person).

So the Word is theos (divine nature) but is not God the…[Read more]

To all… NO one has produced “any” scripture showing “ANY” activity of Jesus Pryor to his birth on this earth.  Not even one scripture.
