The Word was made flesh and dwelt among us.
Who was that word?
Nick..> after all this talk about about words do you still think a word can actually become a piece of flesh, words are spirit they are not flesh and they can not become flesh either, can't you see that.sigh
Hi GB,
We have to get over the HOW which belongs to God.
The Word that was with God was GODNick …… If you can't answer the HOW then there can never be any change so, I am sorry i disagree on that, well just have to agree we disagree OK.
peace……….gene
Nick….your the one who doesn't know the How not me.It would seem you want to limit scripture to what you understand not me, I am open to what ever You understand, but that doesn't mean i agree with you at all, and on this subject i just do not agree with you Nick. Thats why i said we should agree to disagree on it. Your not going to change my mind at least what you have said so far anyway. I feel just fine with my understanding and believe it totally right. In fact i know it is or i wouldn't stand so strong on it.Look i respect you beliefs i just don't agree with all of them.
Peace to you……….gene

Do we have to limit scripture to what you can understand?
Hi Nick,
I never said that you are putting your own words there. Your words are nothing but yourself in the same way God's word belong to God alone. How can you create another God when there is only one God which was confirmed by Jesus? See Jn 5:44, “There is only One God”. You are wrong my friend when you create more than one God by your misinterpretation of scriptures and at same time you blame others.
Take care
AdamI have already told told you that you don't believe in one and only God you believe more than one.
Please stop this silence killing of time.Quote (Nick Hassan @ June 10 2008,06:51) Hi GM,
God is one.
But many are called gods.
Hi Nick, see your self what you quote repeatedly which one is important true God or so called?I was given this by my lecturer – I found it interesting how conclusions are made in this statement.
John's Prologue Uncovered…
God the Word (1c), who was eternally with God (1b, 2), at his very side (18b), brought everything into existence (3, 10b), including the world (11a) and its people (9). He who is very God (1c) intended to come to that which he created and so had a witness precede
him to testify about his coming (6). John’s testimony was enigmatic; he (Jesus) comes after me yet surpasses me because he was before me (15), yet forthose accepting of the fact that Jesus is God, not difficult to untangle. As John predicted, the eternal Logos (1) who made everything (10b) came into the world specifically by becoming flesh (14a), that
is truly human, and making his dwelling with those he had created (14b). For those who will accept it, this tabernacling of God with his people surpasses any OT precedent (cf., 1:17) so that we now see the true glory (Shekinah) of God (14c), the true explanation or exegesis of God from one who knows him best, the one who is literally in his lap (18b). Jesus is the best video God ever had taken of himself (18a), in it the invisible became visible! Because humans, unlike God, can only be localized in space and time, Jesus came to his own creation localized in coming to the Jewish people (11), but, though given their very existence by him, they in large measure rejected him (10-11). True to John’s witness that the Logos would be the instrument through whom all humans regardless of ethnicity might believe (7b), all who received him who believed in his name are given the authority to become the children of God (12). While God’s gracious gift of the law had come through Moses, Moses’ superior has thus brought superior grace and truth (17).”Enjoy
