ParticipantHi KW,
Where is it written that God is a being or a person?
Or are these your derived theological ideas added to scripture?

ParticipantHi Kerwin,
When you say the person of God – you mean the person of “God the Father”; right? y/n
“Yes” – “No” – “I don’t know”
yes, God is a self aware and rational being, i.e. person.
Thank you, see that wasn’t so hard. Next question:
Do you believe “the spirit of Christ” is a person?

ParticipantEd,
The Spirit of Christ is not a being and therefore not a person. It is difficult using and no and then giving a reason for saying not as one does not want to negate the reason.

ParticipantNick,
Seek understanding.

ParticipantHi KW,
Are you a source for such understanding or should we search the scriptures?

ParticipantNick,
It is written to test the Spirit of what you hear. Why would I who claim to be only a student be an exception?
March 5, 2016 at 7:22 am#810094kerwin
ParticipantEd,
Since I believe the Spirit of God is the Spirit of Christ the answer is also no.

ParticipantHi KW,
Good question.
March 13, 2016 at 1:36 pm#810422Proclaimer
ParticipantJesus was a normal man who was born of Mary.
Nick, the only thing in this statement that is true is Jesus was born a man.
But there is error. He was not born normal.
- He was born holy;
- He was born the son of God;
- He was born the messiah;
- He was born the Lord.
Curious, I take it you think you are a normal man, yet were you born any of these things? Did wise men turn up when you were a baby because a star pointed them to the sign of the messiah? Did the prime minister of New Zealand send out soldiers to kill every young baby boy to stop you from fulfilling your mission.
Anything but normal Nick.
The normal Jesus as a type man is another Jesus. Quite a few preach that other Jesus here. Your’e not the only one who preaches the ordinary Jesus.

ParticipantHi t8,
God’s strength shows up best in weak vessels.
But you want to make an infant a Lord and anointed from birth.
Despite the lack of evidence of any such thing happening to him before birth or any manifestations before age 30.
It seems you are offering the teachings of tradition.

Participantt8,
None of disagrees that Jesus was born a normal man.
Any Jew is born holy. (Deuteronomy 7:6 and Exodus 22:31)
They are normal humans.

ParticipantHi KW,
Are they not born of woman?
Were you born a Jew and holy?
March 14, 2016 at 1:56 pm#810449kerwin
ParticipantNick,
I quoted Scripture where God calls the Hebrews his holy so I do not see where you are debating with him.
He called them holy because the word of God was given to them.
They are ones that are called the word’s very own.
Many, though born holy, defiled themselves.
My point is though God calls the Jews holy they are considered normal humans.

ParticipantHi KW,
Where in hebrews?
March 16, 2016 at 7:27 am#810503kerwin
ParticipantNick,
I am sorry as I dropped the word people. God called the Hebrews his people. God has never retracted those words. Instead he implied that the disobedient among them were cast out and obedient Gentiles were adopted in their place.

ParticipantHi KW,
No doubt they are the chosen people
And a remnant of them will survive.
March 16, 2016 at 10:04 am#810505kerwin
ParticipantNick,
That is what I understand.

ParticipantHi KW,
Sadly the synagogue of satan entraps many.
March 16, 2016 at 10:36 am#810509kerwin
ParticipantNick,
I agree with that as well. Christianity also has their versions of that as well.
