Hi WJ,Ask and you shall receive …Gene is here!
Isaiah 44:26: That confirmeth the word of (Ed J) his servant (with Gene),

Hi EDSo ED and Gene seems to be the “only ones” in the Universe that believes the “Holy Spirit” and the “Word of God” is the Father!

Well let’s see how this foolishness works.So if I speak a 1000 words then it is a thousand keiths. Or maybe when someone speaks my words then they are not speaking at all but I am speaking it! Why do you ignore that John 1:1 does not say “the word of God”. You should stop adding to the text and twisting it to support untruths.

Hi WJ,The systems of religion and traditions of men are unreputable sources because they 'twist' bible verses
in the same way that you 'twist' my words, trying to make the “Bible Truth”=117 I present (to) sound false.
Hi EdI do not have to twist anything. You say a “Spoken word” is a sentient being, or a person which is pure foolishness. Yes you and Gene are two peas in a pod. Gene believes that God is “intellect” not God has intellect. Gene believes the Holy Spirit is intellect, not that the Holy Spirit has intellect. You believe that we are a “spoken word” not that we speak spoken words.
I asked you to quote any reputable sources that teach what you teach?
But of course you do not seem to be able to outside of what your interpretations of the scriptures are while you claim to be the only one here (besides Gene) that has the truth on this subject.
This is the “Word” John was speaking of in John 1:1…
That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked upon, and our hands have handled, of “the Word of life“; (For the life was manifested, and we have seen it, and bear witness, and shew unto you that eternal life, “which was with the Father“, and was manifested unto us;) That which we have seen and heard declare we unto you, that ye also may have fellowship with us: and truly our fellowship is with the Father, and with his Son Jesus Christ. 1 John 1:1-3
Who is the “Word” in these scriptures ED?
Quote (Ed J @ Feb. 23 2010,22:48)
In the beginning (at birth) was WJ. And “WJ's word” was with WJ. And “WJ's word” was WJ.
Even your example above is misleading. For that is not the way John 1:1 reads.
If you want to follow the format of John 1:1 using your logic then it would read…“In the beginning was “Eds spoken word” and “Eds spoken word” was with Ed and “Eds spoken word” was Ed. Foolishness. A spoken word is not a sentient being.

If you see an actor on TV, and someone asks “Who is that”? Are you going to say…
That's not him, that's only a picture of him. You could see 1,000 pictures of and it will never be him.
So, what is your point?Quote (Ed J @ Feb. 23 2010,22:48)
I quote many Bible verses as my reputable source that teaches exactly what I teach.
John 15:20 Remember the word that I (Jesus) said unto you, The servant is not greater than his lord.
If they have persecuted me, they will also persecute you; if they have kept my saying, they will keep (Ed J) yours also.
That is of course if your sayings are the sayings of Jesus. Jesus never called the Holy Spirit the Father and he never referred to his spoken word as a sentient being!Jesus spoke of the “Spirit of the Father” which the Father and Jesus sent, just as Jesus is the “Son of the Father” which the Father sent.
Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of “THE FATHER, AND OF THE SON, AND OF THE HOLY GHOST“: Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen. Matt 28:19, 20
But ED J is not teaching to “Observe all things” that Jesus commanded!
That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked upon, and our hands have handled, of “the Word of life“; (For the life was manifested, and we have seen it, and bear witness, and shew unto you that eternal life, “which was with the Father“, and was manifested unto us;) That which we have seen and heard declare we unto you, that ye also may have fellowship with us: and truly our fellowship [is] with the Father, and with his Son Jesus Christ. 1 John 1:1-3
These scriptures are speaking of the Father and Jesus the “Word of life” that was with the Father.

Hi WJ,It was Mathew.
Matt.1:20 …fear not to take unto thee Mary thy wife: for that which is conceived in her is of the HolySpirit.
Matt.1:18: Now the birth of Jesus Christ was on this wise: When as his mother Mary was espoused
to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child of the HolySpirit.Ed J
EdIt has already been shown to you that the Holy Spirit is involved in every conception, so your assumption proves nothing because though the Holy Spirit is involved in the conception of all men, not all men are ‘Sons of God”.
And the angel answered and said unto her, The Holy Ghost shall come upon thee”, **AND** “THE POWER OF THE HIGHEST” shall overshadow thee: therefore also that holy thing which shall be born of thee shall be called “the Son of God”. Luke 1:35
The power of Highest (the Father) overshadows her and that which is born is the “Son of God” (The Highest), not the son of the Holy Spirit!
Matthew also states…
Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of “THE FATHER, AND OF THE SON, AND OF THE HOLY GHOST“: Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen. Matt 28:19, 20

Nope they do not say the Holy Spirit and the “Word” is the same. Consider this…Acts:11:15: And as I began to speak, the HolySpirit fell on them, as on us at the beginning.
Why didn't Luke write “as I began to speak, the HolySpirit (Word of God) fell on them, as on us at the beginning”?.

Hi WJ,You say because the “HolySpirit” was sent, he cannot (falsely) be the father.
EDNo, that is not the only reason that I believe the Holy Spirit is not the Father.
Other reasons are because Jesus sent the Holy Spirit, and because Jesus prayed to the Father to send the Holy Spirit. Jesus didn’t say Father I pray that you send yourself, no, he prayed that the Father would send “Another Comforter”!
And I will pray the Father, and “he shall give you another (Gr allos=other)
Comforter”, that he may abide with you for ever; John 14:16Why do you deny this Bible truth?
Also, Jesus own words here show there is “Another”!
Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of “THE FATHER, AND OF THE SON, AND OF THE HOLY GHOST“: Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen. Matt 28:19, 20

Why do you flip-flop? This is the excuse you to disqualify The Father.
What reasoning? There is nothing in that scripture that says the “spoken words of Jesus” is a sentient being or the Father. Hello, Jesus is claiming that the word he is speaking is the words that the Father speaks or the “Fathers words”.
But according to you those words or sayings are a sentient being! Ed says “The Fathers words are the Father!Quote (Ed J @ Feb. 23 2010,22:50)

John 6:63: It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing:
the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life.
Yes it says worship him “In the Spirit” not “worship the Holy Spirit” and it also says “the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit”, not the words are the Holy Spirit!The Holy Spirit speaks the “Word of God”! He is not the “Word”!
Please stop adding your inference to the scriptures and thereby changing the meaning!
Quote (Ed J @ Feb. 23 2010,22:50) Try to separate these verses… Rom:8:11: But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you,
he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you.
GaL.1:1 Paul, an apostle…by Jesus Christ, and God the Father, who raised him(Jesus) from the dead😉
Eph.4:6 ONE God and Father OF ALL, who is above all, and through all, and in you all.
Trinitarians agree that the Father, Son and Holy Spirit took part in his resurrection, for they are one and that Jesus is also “all in all”. Eph 1:23, Col 3:11But you also left out the verses before Rom 8:11, you should read them in their context….
But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that “the **Spirit of God** dwell in you. Now if any man have not **the Spirit of Christ**”, he is none of his. And if **Christ be in you**, the body [is] dead because of sin; but the Spirit is life because of righteousness. Rom 8:9, 10
Can you see it ED? The Spirit of God is also the Spirit of (Christ) Jesus. So according to you the Holy Spirit then would be Jesus because it says the Spirit of Christ is the Spirit of God. Who lives in you ED? My Bible says the Father, Son and Holy Spirit lives in me.
Jesus words are true…

aptizing them in the name of “THE FATHER, AND OF THE SON, AND OF THE HOLY GHOST“: Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen. Matt 28:19, 20Satan [is the] Devil = 107

Nick,For your information the Greek word “logos” is also translated in our English as “logic.” Paul used the word “therefore” over 100 times in his writings. Jesus INFERRED the doctrine of the resurrection from the statement “I am the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.”

So God is a PLURAL being. The Father said that the Son created all things:
8″But to the Son he says, Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: a sceptre of righteousness is the sceptre of thy kingdom.
9Thou hast loved righteousness, and hated iniquity; therefore God, even thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows.

Hi thinker,“Let us make man in our image” works just fine with Scripture. We know God had no beginning. We know Jesus was the “firstborn of all creation”. We know that nothing (besides Jesus) came into existence without Jesus.

Hi thinkerDo you take the word “image” literally? Do you think God has bowel movements or has to blow his nose or stinks when he sweats?

and performeth the counsel of his messengers…Ed J
Hi EDSo ED and Gene seems to be the “only ones” in the Universe that believes the “Holy Spirit” and the “Word of God” is the Father!

WJ……….Is your word who you are? or is it someone else, this is the same with GOD< His WORD is who HE IS and His word Is with HIM just as Your words are with YOU and are YOU. No difference, can't you get that?. John 1:1 is Just saying the same thing.February 25, 2010 at 4:52 pm#180222Worshipping JesusParticipantQuote (Gene Balthrop @ Feb. 25 2010,01:19) Quote (WorshippingJesus @ Feb. 25 2010,09:37) Quote (Ed J @ Feb. 23 2010,22:52) Quote (WorshippingJesus @ Feb. 24 2010,10:42) Ed Ed no one here that I know of believes that the Father is the Word and the Holy Spirit.

GeneNo my word is not “Me”. My word is spoken by me!
Tell me Gene, is that little new born Baby, baby John, though he doesn't know or hasn't learned or even spoke a “word” yet?
Which comes first Gene?
Baby John or the word? So Baby John is not his own spoken word is he?
God is not intellect, God has intellect. But you and Ed preach this foolishness and are all alone!

God and HIS Words are the very same thing you can not separate GOD From His Words or anyone else. If you are not your words then who are you?, your words depict who and what you are.
peace and love…………….gene
