Hi KW:

I am using “google” and it works fine once I re-did it. Thanks for letting me know that it was not working initially.

Hi T8:

Here is another scripture for your consideration relative to this question:

Ephesians 3

8 Unto me, who am less than the least of all saints, is this grace given, that I should preach among the Gentiles the unsearchable riches of Christ;

9 And to make all men see what is the fellowship of the mystery, which from the beginning of the…[Read more]

Hi T8:

I’ll try this link again.

Hi t8:

Have you looked at the following Greek interlinear relative to this question?

Love in Christ,

Marty

Hi T8:

Is “th

Hi Marty. All names are like that. Jesus renamed Cephas to Peter (rock). We all have a name written on a stone that only We and God know.

He was also called Jesus.

Is “The Word of God” a name like the name Jesus or John or does it mean something else?

Love in Christ,
Marty

Hi Gene:

To all….THERE IS “ONLY” ONE TRUE ROCK and that is GOD THE FATHER ALONE.

Psalm 18:31 ..”For who is GOD besides the “LORD”, YEHWEH? AND WHO IS A “ROCK” EXCEPT OUR GOD”. 2 Sa 22:32… For who is God, save the LORD?, and who is a “ROCK” save our GOD.

The “ROCK” Jesus was refering to, was GOD THE FATHER, And is WHO JESUS WOULD BUILD THE CHURC…[Read more]

Hi T8:

Actually, the scripture does not say “his name is the Word of God”.

YLT has it:

Rev 19:

13 and he is arrayed with a garment covered with blood, and his name is called, The Word of God.

There is a difference in saying “his name is”, and  “his name is called”  The Word of God.

As I have stated, “his name is called” pertains to his ch…[Read more]

Hi T8:

Let me add the following scripture to what I have written above relative to how Jesus will judge:

Revelation 12:

48 He that rejecteth me, and receiveth not my words, hath one that judgeth him: the word that I have spoken, the same shall judge him in the last day.

49 For I have not spoken of myself; but the Father which sent me, he gave…[Read more]

Hi T8:

And if he is this Word, then he was with God in the beginning, something some people here not only believe, but also teach.

Revelation 19:13
He is dressed in a robe dipped in blood, and his name is the Word of God.

The scripture does not say “that he is the Word of God” but that “his name is the Word of God”.   The “name” speaks of…[Read more]

Hi Ed:

If animal sacrifices ceased when you indicated, why would they be selling sheep and oxen in preparation for the passover?

John 2

13 And the Jews’ passover was at hand, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.

14 And found in the temple those that sold oxen and sheep and doves, and the changers of money sitting:

15 And when he had made a scourge…[Read more]

Hi Mia:

God understands all things, but Mia, you are deceiving yourself. Who or what do you love more that which you are doing that you apparently know to be wrong or God. What happens if you happen to pass away in this state?

Are you willing to give up all that God has in store for those who love him in order to continue in sin? The Apostle…[Read more]

Hi Nick:

Hi 94,

No I think it refers to the origins of the spirit of anointing on the man Jesus.

The Word was with God And was God.

As the Spirit spoke through Jesus

(The Logos, Word is that which God has spoken and embodies an idea or a plan.   What John 1 tells us is that when God began to create the heavens and the earth and its host, he…[Read more]

Hi T8:

You asked Nick:

Who, being in very nature God

Another translation says:

who, though he was in the form of God,

It seems you do not believe either translation Nick.

Do you believe that Jesus existed in the form of God or in very nature God?

I believe that the following scriptures will answer your question.  He says:

John 14:

Hi T8:

Before he emptied himself and came in the flesh according to the text.

And so, can you show me by the scriptures when this happened?

Hi Mia:

You say:

I know right from wrong, but I have trouble with one particular thing. Is is right or is it wrong? I don’t know (can’t say too much here).

This may be the problem that you are having connecting  in prayer.  He has said “confess your faults one to another and pray for one another that you may be healed”.

If you cannot say too m…[Read more]

Hi T8

He existed in the form of God

When did he exist in the form of God?

Love in Christ,

Hi Nick:

Hi 94,

Whose commandments?

The ten or the commands of Lord Jesus?

(And so, Just do as Jesus did and as he said, and you will be obeying the Ten Commandments.  He stated that he did not come to change the Law but to fulfill it, and he did that by obeying God without sin even unto death on the cross)

Love in Christ,
Marty

Hi Nick:

And so, what two are you implying that I am serving? The question would be who are you serving if you are not obeying His commandments?

This is what the book of 1 John 2 has to say on the subject:

3 And hereby we do know that we know him, if we keep his commandments.

4 He that saith, I know him, and keepeth not his commandments, is a…[Read more]

Hi KW:

As the Apostle Peter stated, sometimes it is difficult to understand the Apostle Paul. He said this:

Romans 3
28 Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the deeds of the law.

29 Is he the God of the Jews only? is he not also of the Gentiles? Yes, of the Gentiles also:

30 Seeing it is one God, which shall justify…[Read more]
