Eternal life is to know the one true God and his son

John17-3

God made man in his image. Jesus is called the image of God. We are not the source. Jesus is not the source. Both are images of God. One made, the other begotten.

Further, an idol is the opposite. It is an image of God made by an image of God (man). All idols start of in the mind of man and not the Spirit of God. The Trinity Doctrine included. It creates a God from the mind and reasoning of man and abandons the teachings of scripture on who is the one true God.

Jesus said in John 17:3:
Now this is eternal life: that they know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent.

Do not ignore the words of eternal life my friend.

    t8 this is what you said to carmel..
    “All this other crap about him being God is stupid”
    this is what you said to me…
    “DavidL, are you aware that the measure you judge is the same that you will be judged by.”
    Two standards..?

    No DavidL, one standard. If I start to babble on about traditions and doctrines that are not supported in scripture or contradict clear teaching in scripture, then I can assure you that I too would be talking crap.

    ALSO, UNLESS YOU PIN POINT WHERE IN MY PREACHING YOU DO NOT AGREE WITH, AND CONTRADICT ME IN RELATION TO IT TO JUSTIFY THAT YOUR BELIEF IS TRUTH, I WON’T BE ABLE TO POST BACK AND DO LIKEWISE TO JUSTIFY THAT MY BELIEF IS THE TRUTH!

    John 17:3
    Now this is eternal life: that they know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent.

    Carmel 17:3
    Now this is eternal life: that they know you, the only true God Jesus Christ, who sent himself into the world.
    or
    Now this is eternal life: that they know you, the only trinue God the Father, the Son, the Holy Spirit of which the Father of God sent the Son of God into the world.

    I believe the first one whereas you believe one or both of the other two.

    John 17:3 exposes your false doctrine of the Trinity. I could go on, but this alone is enough for you to seriously contemplate if you care about the truth.

    Carmel,

    Sex between a husband and his wife is not filthy. That witch is filthy is the desires of the flesh and Paul taught that a husbands and his wife chose to do so they were to agree to abstain from sex for a time but not more than each could withstand. He did not call such sex the works of the flesh.

    Jesus’ conception was miraculous and so was John the Baptist’s. The difference of two is the degree of miracle with Elizabeth being a barren woman and Marry being a virgin.

    Mary was not part angel. She and Elizabeth are both human beings as are Jesus and John the Baptist.

    Scripture teaches Jesus is a human being.

    Who are you trying to convince….yourself..???

    Your chosen verse, that you IMAGINE denies the trinity, in fact only confirms the UNITY of Father and Son…!!!!

    You are the one who has deviated in your teaching from the historical truth of Jesus Christ..

    Twisting Scripture (like John 17:3) in an effort to promote your own corrupt teaching.

    Hi davidl,

    You promote what is of man and accuse others of following corrupt teaching?

    JESUS CHRIST, as a name , is not mentioned in the OT.BUT THE ENTIRE OT., IS A REFERENCE TO JESUS CHRIST.

    SO IT IS THE SAME THING WITH THE TRINITY!

    It is not the same.

    As per usual you tactfully try to deny truths that are disagreeable to your own teaching…

    But let’s consider it again..

    The whole Old Testament is in fact a reference to Jesus Christ, who is never mentioned directly by name…

    So also the Bible never mentions the Trinity by name, and yet the whole New Testament is a revelation of the Father, through the Son, by the Holy Spirit..!!!

     

    (I know you will go on denying – because you are compelled to preserve and promote your own false doctrine…but in the face of such bias, you can no longer sincerely claim to be an honest seeker of truth).

    Hi DavidL

    That is an excellent and correct statement so how is it a trinity? You basically said The Power of The One God was on display, there is no need to go past that position.

    They do blaspheme who say: Allah(YHWH) is one of three in a Trinity: for there is no god except One Allah. If they desist not from their word (of blasphemy), verily a grievous penalty will befall the blasphemers among them.

    ( سورة المائدة , Al-Maeda, Chapter #5, Verse #73)

    O People of the Book! Commit no excesses in your religion: Nor say of Allah aught but the truth. Christ Jesus the son of Mary was (no more than) a messenger of Allah, and His Word, which He bestowed on Mary, and a spirit proceeding from Him: so believe in Allah and His messengers. Say not “Trinity”: desist: it will be better for you: for Allah is one Allah: Glory be to Him: (far exalted is He) above having a son. To Him belong all things in the heavens and on earth. And enough is Allah as a Disposer of affairs.

    Hi BD,

    You are right

    but adding the words of another man add nothing.

    DavidL,

    You do not believe Scripture or you world know that just as the one true God sent John the Baptist into the world to tell of the coming off the Messiah so to did he send Jesus Christ whom he created in Mary.

    You fail to understand that Jesus had to be a human being in order to save human beings.

    I believe it is because love darkness and knowing Jesus, a human being, did not sin though being tempted as other human beings is just too much for you to handle and so your subconscious seeks to make him God in order to address that prick against your conscious. You are stuck in the denial phase and will not proceed until you repent. You are not alone.

    Exactly, God cannot be tempted, Jesus was tempted, therefore Jesus cannot be God.

    James 1:13
    Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of God: for God cannot be tempted with evil, neither tempteth he any man:

    Hebrews 4:15
    For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin.

    There is nothing else to say about that, just that one point alone disqualifies Jesus as God according to the scriptures, for it doesn’t say “the Father cannot be tempted” it Clearly says “God” cannot be tempted so that even if God was a triune God no part thereof could be tempted. A being that can be tempted cannot be classified as God in any way shape or form

    I am unfamiliar with Muslim Scriptures, but if such a belief were indeed blasphemy then I am certain the Bible would also confirm this truth…yet it seems in Scripture we find it was Christ who was accused of blasphemy – and for the very same reason you give…(making Himself equal to YHWH).

    So, you consider me a blasphemer because I accept the words of Christ – yet I also have a conscience and know that if my actions and beliefs were somehow in contradiction to the truth – then I would feel deeply bad about this..and yet, to the contrary, I am so deeply blessed of God (and free from fear) when I acknowledge the Deity of His own Beloved Son…!!

    DavidL,

    I define blaspheme as falsely accusing God but the actual definition is much wider in that it means treating God with disrespect. Trinitarian accuse God of being tempted even as human beings and that is false and disrespectful accusation.

    Is claiming God is three person disrespectful. It is an untruth and therefore a false doctrine but other than that I do not see it as disrespectful. The bottom line is my eyesight is not perfect.

    Jesus laid aside His Divinity to become human..

    He overcame temptation as a man

    simply to make a way for man to come back to God..

    Your words are nonsense. You claim God chose to stop being God so he could he could instead be a human being. That would mean your triune God became a biune God while Jesus was a human being. Scripture tells us Jesus is still a human being, 1 Timothy 2:5. That means that there is no longer a triune God and yet you believe God is composed of three persons.

    James declares that God cannot be tempted by evil but you claim there is an exception as God can chose the change his kind in order to be tempted by evil. The choice to subject oneself to being tempted by the Devil is ungodly and God cannot do an ungodly action or even tempted to do one.

    Jesus overcame temptation as a result of his faith just as it is written “the righteous live by faith”. We are to follow him.

    Rubbish. God does not change. God is not a man that he should lie.

    God is an invisible Spirit. He has a son who is the express image of him.

    If you want to know what God looks like or is like, then look no further than into the face of Jesus Christ because he is the image of the invisible God

    Understand the word ‘image’ and you will understand Jesus more and will not say silly things like he is God.

    GOD IS NOT AN IMAGE.

    Thanks Kerwin.

    Jesus changed or changes, God does not.

    Philippians 2:6-11

    Who, being in very nature God,
        did not consider equality with God something to be used to his own advantage;
    rather, he made himself nothing
        by taking the very nature of a servant,
        being made in human likeness.
    And being found in appearance as a man,
        he humbled himself
        by becoming obedient to death—
            even death on a cross!

    Therefore God exalted him to the highest place
        and gave him the name that is above every name,
    10 that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow,
        in heaven and on earth and under the earth,
    11 and every tongue acknowledge that Jesus Christ is Lord,
        to the glory of God the Father.

    Time to start confessing the truth about Jesus DavidL.

    Jesus Christ is Lord.

    It’s funny how you constantly oppose what I say…and yet continually end up confirming it…!!

    This is what I said,

    Jesus laid aside His Divinity to become human..

    You said – ‘Rubbish,’ and quoted Phil 2

    “who, although He existed in the form of God, did not regard equality with God a thing to be graspedbut emptied Himself, taking the form of a bond-servant, and being made in the likeness of men.”

    ie, …Jesus laid aside His Divinity to become human.

    Just pointing out how your own personal bias actually blinds you to the truth..!

    Hi davidl.

    Yes the Word was with God and was God

    The Word was made flesh [ in Jesus ] and dwelt among us.

     

    So Jesus Christ is not God
