The Word is divine speech, it is God's Word.Spirit gives birth to Spirit. Flesh gives birth to flesh.

Quote (mikeboll64 @ Dec. 19 2012,11:08)Gene, when are YOU going to acknowledge that the Word BECAME flesh, and start aligning your understanding around the actual words John wrote – without having to add your own word into the verse?lol.Mike, and all, I will catch up soon with posting, okay.

Hi T, i was just thinking – but i don't have much time sorry to reply to your posts at the moment.There is one thing that we should all be worried about:'Whoever speaks a word against the Son of Man, it will be forgiven him; but whoever speaks against the Holy Spirit, it will not be forgiven him, neither in this age, nor in that which is to…[Read more]

Scripture says: 'God has revealed to us through the Spirit — For the Spirit searches everything — even the depths of God.For what person knows a man's thoughts, except the spirit of the man which is in him? So also no one comprehends the thoughts of God, except the Spirit of God. 'This is the one God with a mind and a Spirit.Jesus said “No one…[Read more]

Hi Terraricca,I don't know why I posted in this thread.I have no interest anymore of being in the middle of these foolish discussions over doctrine.This is (one of) the reasons that people will face eternal death and be thrown away from the building. (BE WARNED) because of foolish divisions and debates over doctrines and foolish doctrines…[Read more]

But as Gene says, God was truly him and speaking through him because of his sinlessness.

Jesus was a man just like us. The only difference is that he was the only one who overcome.Peace.

Or they want to make the flesh of Jesus a god rather than a man.

Gene, they don't want to say that God was in the world. They don't want to believe in an eternal spirit which is God. They want to say that the word was a god. They want to make God two instead of one!

Of course T, I am enjoying this study with you!When I have more time though.

Yes I vote as Marty said.
