Hi Jodi and All,
It is important to recognize that John 8:58 is an answer to a direct question.
57 Then said the Jews unto him, Thou art not yet fifty years old, and hast thou seen Abraham?
58 Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am.

Hi Danny,
53 Art thou greater than our father Abraham, which is dead? and the prophets are dead: whom makest thou thyself?
54 Jesus answered, If I honour myself, my honour is nothing: it is my Father that honoureth me; of whom ye say, that he is your God:

Hi DT,
As according to Isaiah 45, God had declared the end from the beginning, in that declaration was a man who would come and execute God’s will, who would do all of God’s pleasure and it was unto salvation for Israel and as both Isaiah and David speak it was salvation for all nations of people.
God promised Abraham that through his seed all…[Read more]

@Danny,
Back up one verse to John 8:56 “Your father Abraham rejoiced to see my day. He saw it, and was glad.” When does Abraham ever talk about expecting a “messiah”? The Jewish nation wasn’t even formed at that time; there was no sinful nation that required a messiah. So what was Jesus speaking of?
If you’re going to claim Jesus saying “I a…[Read more]

Hi Jodi,
Nevertheless, Jesus did answer the question of the Jews.

Danny…….Jodi is absolutely right, the human man Jesus is what God had in his mind for all of humanity to become like, even before any creation ever started, on this earth.
Jesus did not actually exist before he came into his existence at his birth on this earth, but he , a perfect human being, was in the plan of God from the start. Therefor…[Read more]

Israel left Palestine on their own to fend for themselves and create their own society. The UN and countries gave them money to help them on their way. Instead, they used that money for tunnels to try and invade Israel and destroy them. Many are they who are against God and his chosen nation Israel as well as the Church which is the body of Christ.

Danny,
Jesus answered saying before Abraham was, I AM.
Jesus did NOT say, before Abraham was, I WAS.
This should be one of your first clues that you are forcing the text to say what it does not.
Danny Dabbs replied to the topic JOHN 1:1 who is the WORD? in the forum Scriptural Teachings 2 years, 3 months ago
Hi Jodi,
V. 57→ “You are not yet 50 years old, and have you seen Abraham?”
V. 58→ “Truly, truly I say to you, before Abraham was, I am.”Thus Jesus answered the question of the Jews.
This is very clear to see.Jodi replied to the topic JOHN 1:1 who is the WORD? in the forum Scriptural Teachings 2 years, 3 months ago
Good Morning Danny,
Yes, John 8:58 is quite a popular passage people like to give as proof of pre-existence.
I am fully aware of this passage and read it through clearly given truths and within the context of the chapter. Having correct interpretation of a passage comes through applying scripture with scripture, applying simple logic is h…[Read more]

Following….
If, by faith, you believe this assertion, then you must also believe everything else that follows. This declaration, like all of Scripture, demands our unyielding faith. The Genesis narrative continues in a profoundly systematic way. It unfolds the acts and deeds of an omniscient, all-powerful God as He creates everything out of…[Read more]

So we can safely say and be in agreement angels cannot sin and all angels are simply messengers of God doing only what HE commands.
Looking again at II Pet 2:4, even though it says angels (heavenly hosts as confirmed thru a few commentaries), your faith however tells you these “angels” are prophets. Reading the passage, Peter is using a h…[Read more]
