Hi Kejohn:I researched what is meant by the “Oneness doctrinine”, and so no, I don't adhere to that doctrine either.  I believe that the scriptures that I quoted show that there is but “One God”. Jesus was conveived of the Holy Ghost in the womb of the Virgin Mary.  He is the “Only begotten” Son of God which means his body is God's own flesh and b…[Read more]

Quote (kejonn @ July 01 2007,04:21)942767,Just so I know, do you believe in the doctrines of Trinity or Oneness? Just want to be sure because I'm wanting answers from those who don't adhere to these doctrines.If you do not, how do you explain Jesus in the hierarchy of Heaven? I am aware of all of the verses you quoted, but none of them really lets…[Read more]

Hi Kejohn:No, Christianity is not polytheistic.Ephesians 4:6One God and Father of all (including Jesus), who is above all, and through all, and in you all (born-again believers).1Ti 2:5For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus; 1 Co.8:6But to us there is but one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we…[Read more]

Quote (Nick Hassan @ June 26 2007,07:06)Hi 94, You say”I have already given you my understanding that judgement against God's enemies in the Old Testament was final.  They and their children for whom the parents were responsible are dead.  They will not incur further judgment.” And who from that era is not physically dead?Will some who have died n…[Read more]

Quote (IM4Truth @ June 25 2007,12:43)942767:   The events you refer too in Ez. 38 and in Zech. 14, are in fact about to come to pass.              The problems in the middle-east are just the beginning of the end.              But they have nothing to do with the deadly wound.              The wound was given to one of the seven heads/kingdoms.…[Read more]

Quote (Nick Hassan @ June 27 2007,09:11)Hi 94,Yes the disciples saw his old perishable fleshly body that had been raised.But Flesh and Bones, as Christ had when raised, cannot enter the kingdom of heaven.Will we be different to him in our new heavenly bodies if he does not have one when he returns? Scripture says we shall be like to the man from…[Read more]

Hi All:Jesus by virture of the following scripture had flesh after his resurrection but no blood as that had been shed for us, but whether or not his body has changed since his ascension to the right hand of the Father, I don't know.  I believe we will still be able to recongize his by his nail scarred hands and the the scar where the sword…[Read more]

Hi Nick:I missed something, and I don't quite understand this statement.  Please explain, thanks.You say:Quote The Spirit that quickens is the Spirit of God given to Christ. He WAS MADE a quickening Spirit. The Lord is the Spirit. His own spirit left at Calvary.

Hi Nick:Below are some scriptures which might help you to understand about the inner man.  It is what a person does in the body that makes the person.  When Jesus says in John 14 9Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip? HE THAT HATH SEEN ME HATH SEEN THE FATHER; and how sayest thou then, S…[Read more]

Hi All:I'd like to give my understanding of this topic.In Ezekiel the Word of God states:Ezekiel 38 1And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying, 2Son of man, set thy face against Gog, the land of Magog, the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal, and prophesy against him, 3And say, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I am against thee, O Gog, the…[Read more]

Quote (Jefe Gordo @ June 21 2007,07:13)acertainchap,I think you are probably right.God seems to want us to hold a reverent respect for Him and His power. My reason for starting this thread stems from some of the doubts that have entered my mind upon reading the Old Testament. Most of the responses I receive when I ask other Christians their…[Read more]

Quote (Nick Hassan @ June 18 2007,09:33)Hi, The subject at hand is the possibility God will save all. It is not written so cannot be stated as fact. It goes against the biblical theme of faith. It is unlikely IMHO.Hi Nick:I'll keep you informed as things progress. Pray for me and my family.God Bless

Quote (Nick Hassan @ June 18 2007,08:42)Hi 94,You say”My understanding is that we who are born again Christians are members of the body of Christ.  If one of the members of our body causes us to sin, we are to pluck it out as if the eye or cut it off as if one of our hands.18:6But whoso shall offend one of these little ones which believe in me,…[Read more]
