    WJ,

    How can a God die?


    JA

    Because death does not mean to cease to exist!

    WJ


    Boy playing with words again? So you are saying God can go into sheol like a departed soul? Do you just make this up as you go?
    There is not a single aspect of your Hybrid Christ theory that doe not lead to contradiction.
    First you claim that Jesus cannot be tempted with Evil because he is God. the contradiction occurs because that means Christ was not temped like all men.  NOT!
    Second you claim Jesus is God but cannot define what died on the cross without saying God died on the cross. You must define it with more mystery and slight of hand tricks.
    You doctrine is full of deception and as long as you make yourself aligned with it you take on the role of a deceiver.

    Since you know so much then you answer the questions.

    You guys limit God to going anywhere he wants and becoming anything he wants!

    Did Jesus go to hades or not?

    Does God have a body?

    Was Jesus a Spirit being who lived in a Body or flesh tent?

    One more for you men of little faith!

    Did Jesus conquer death?

    Can't wait for your answers, because the answer to them all are “YES” and there are scriptures for each one.

    Come on you guys, can't you do better than just make lame accusations?

    WJ


    WJ

    you are your own accuser ,you have come to the knowledge of understanding the scriptures ,and the truth of it ,
    I can tell from your quotes,

    what i do not know is what keep you from the truth.

    it may be a personal struggle i don't know ,

    God has time but you, your time is running short.


    T

    Look! You are starting to become harrasing. You have no response to my post but lame accusations.

    Please if you cannot refute what I say with scriptures then get off my back!

    Your constant attacks are becomimg annoying and full of poisen!

    WJ………Why don't you ever even consider the what we are telling you from scripture is correct and Just ask God to reveal the truth to you. Look i respect you service to people seeking GOD, but trying to defend false teachings by not considering what we are saying is only hindering your service to others, I know what we are telling you is not the (ESTABLISHED) religion of this day, but it is none the less the truth.  Think about it WJ.

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


    Gene, even though I do not believe in the trinity, your statement could go both ways.  I like to debate, but not when each of you, Gene and W.J. are on each others throat….  Why is that so important to you to be right.  Also you don't believe in Scriptures either then, when it comes right down to it.  The Preexisting of Jesus is according to Scriptures, which I have given and t8 has given many times.  I will for that purpose still write one down.  Did you come from upstairs today?  Or did you come from Downtown today into your neighborhood, or did the rain come down from the sky?  
    John 6:38 Jesus said this:” For I have come down from Heaven not to do my will, but the will of Him that send Me….
    Why is it so hard to understand that Jesus also was the firstborn of all Creation in
    Col. 1:15 and Rev. 3:14
    These are clear Scriptures that you want to interpret your way.  Take them as they are written and then you will see….
    John !:1 is better explained in
    Rev.19:13 “He was clothed in a robe dipped in blood, and His name is The Word of God.
    verse 16 “And He has on His robe and thigh a name written:
    KING OF KNOGS AND LORD OF LORSDS. That is Jesus Christ. He will be KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS in the Millenium, coming very soon I hope.
    Getting back to if God can be tempted, I don't think so.  He made all and knows all.  Jesus however who was flesh did get tempted.  The difference is that Jesus was flesh…. God the Father is not…. And never will be.  He is Almighty.  What does Almighty really stand for, if we make Him just like us, then He is not Almighty and God.  Flesh is weak, therefore Scriptures tell us to walk in the Spirit and you will not sin…
    Peace and Love Irene

    Get over yourself will you?
    These forums are of no real practical value. Very few if any minds are changed and they lack the honest personal interaction that makes a ministry worthwhile.
    I said nothing bad about the Word of God. I merely commented on the usefulness of forums to properly represent the actual purposes of the Word. 99% of the people on forums are not willing to follow any honest interpretation principles but are only on to debate there own take on things.
    Unfortunately many on such boards have no idea what the Word is for anyway, so they fit in here very well. Those are the ones that so vehemently defend a forums use.

    BTW I will come and go on the board as I wish. I do not need your permission as if you were something in the kingdom or this world. Your rebuke can only have meaning if I you were to have earned my respect. Your comments certainly dissolve that. If you do not like my take on this forum then why don't you leave. I am getting just what I expected from it. Something to pass the time while I am sick. I do not expect any real challenge to my beliefs and I do not expect to change any others.
    As I said before — Get over yourself and your self righteous ways.

    Irene,
    Your post to me is a prime example of one of the fruits of forums. When you first came on the forum you were full of kindness and mercy. However you like so many of the rest of us have become more and more shaded. It is a result of the adversarial nature of the forum venue. WJ is the same way. His posts have become increasingly antagonistic. I also include myself in all of the above. That is why I do not frequent the board as much as I used to and take many breaks from it.
    I think you should consider if the board is having an adverse effect on you too.

    as a true christian we have given up our spirit and body to Christ and God ,so we are no longer the owner but only custodian of it,what happen to it is for us not a punishment but a test of faith ,we know that God and Christ is with us helping us to go trough the test ,so we feel confident that whatever happen to us will comes to past ,and it is to him that we are going,amen

    It is you that is saying God cannot be tempted when in fact I show you that he can!

    Ok WJ, Tempt God.

    Jesus “became flesh.” He was human. He became flesh means he became human. Jesus became the second Adam and was a corresponding ransom for what Adam lost. He had to be human to do this. As a human, Jesus could be tempted. There is no indication that “God Almighty” is ever tempted, is there?

    Obviously you haven't read the thread. The same Hebrew word that was brought over into the Greek LXX where the children of Israel “Tempted” YHWH, is the same Greek word used in the NT for Jesus temtations!

    WJ…..Scripture say GOD can not be tempted by Sin. How does an al Knowing being who knows the beginning from the end of a matter be tempted by anything. He may react to a situation but i don't believe He is tempted by it. We are lead away when we are tempted, but God is NOT ever led or controlled by temptations. IMO

    Jesus was not temted by sin either. There was no lust in him to be led away by. Jesus didn't have a fallen sinful nature.

    Satan came to him and found nothing in him.

    Oh thats right you do not believe that satan exist as a sentient being.

    So just who or what was it that came to Jesus that Jesus said found nothing in him?

    WJ……….Jesus most certainly had temptations (IN) Him scripture say He was TEMPTED in (ALL MANOR) even as we are. Did you take that out of your TRINITARIAN BIBLE. Fact is Jesus was (ONLY) a 100% HUMAN Being and and did not become a Son of GOD untiil He recieved (HOLY SPIRIT) at the Gordan river, This anointing gave Him the ability to drive sin our of HIS LIFE. That is why He was lead out into the wilderness (AFTER) His rebirth of the SPIRIT (IN) HIM. The Adversarial SPIRIT was HIS own flesh which He conquered by GOD'S Spirit (IN) HIM . Why do you think scripture says “THIS DAY I HAVE BEGOTTEN YOU” , not some past time as you TRINITARIANS AND PREEXISTENCES preach.

    Something to consider….Jesus told us to be of good cheer (Because I Have Overcome) NOW ask yourself why should we be of good cheer because (HE) overcame SIN and obviously if he overcame sin it definitely was a problem for Him. But even more why should we be of good Cheer, after all that was Jesus who made it not us right?, but wait the same God that empowered Jesus to overcome HIS Human Nature has the same Power to work in Us also and cause the same effect in us. So Yes we should be of good Cheer then.

    Because He (GOD) that was (IN) Jesus, was greater then HE(Jesus HIMSELF) that was (IN) the World. Jesus is Our proto-type of the salvation Process and it works the SAME Way for Us. “LET THIS MIND BE (IN) YOU THAT WAS IN CHRIST JESUS OUR Lord. IMO

    peace and love to you and your……………..gene
