If the word of God is supposed truth and Jesus claims he is the truth,then is he not claiming to be the logos? you who deny it do so for good cause because you realize by claiming such Jesus says he’s God.
If the truth is God and Jesus is the truth then that makes him God as well.

Dear T8,
Yes Jesus built his church upon Peter who declared he was not only Christ but the son of the Living One, and in this is established the divinity of Christ as the Son by merit of resurrection. We know him as the divine Spirit,and no longer as flesh as St Paul also declared

I have given three reasons so far, along with citing Scriptural references,
why “The Word” cannot be Jesus Christ – but is utterances pertaining to God.Dear Ed, thy reasons pertain only to certain fleshly understandings,but the logos”God” declareth it became flesh from heaven in form of Christ.Now this Christ hath indeed returned from which…[Read more]

God says the time has come and Now is that they who worship in spirit and truth will not worship in Samaria or Jerusalem.So the spirit of truth is there is no need of a fleshly Jerusalem for worship.And unbelievers can fight over it all they want but God cares not.
And there are no Bible verses in NT or OT that support the modern state of…[Read more]

Idk if anyone has brought this out on this thread but the restored and unified nation of Israel and Judah in Ezekiel is to be at peace with unwalled cities with no bars or gates,dwelling securely, with “David” as their king before Gog and Magog is brought against them.
Certainly at no point in the modern state of Israel’s existence has this been…[Read more]

Can one just seek first the kingdom of God without the book of Revelation? but some only find “the word of the Lord” in the book of Revelation because they can make it agree with all current events in the world and their own current thoughts too.
AndrewAD replied to the topic Upon this rock, Jesus Christ built his Church in the forum Truth or Tradition 9 years, 5 months ago
Yes John makes his point in believing that Jesus is the Christ but throughout the book Jesus is presented as a divine being/God/god,however one may take it.So to believe Jesus is the Christ is to believe he’s God, a god or divine,supernatural being. To know Christ is to know God,and if you don’t know Christ then you don’t know God.

If one cannot know the true God without knowing Jesus Christ then what does that really mean?

Dear Kerwin,
According to St Paul in Philippians yes Jesus did attain a higher state or rank after his resurrection than he had in his preexistence,because of his becoming man and being obedient unto death. And the verse Paul paraphrases from Isaiah 45 is for Jehovah only according to Isaiah but Paul applies it to Christ-that every knee will…[Read more]

Paul knew someone caught to the third heaven-himself maybe,but he or they were not dead. And the verse from revelation can be taken as anyone wishes.Are these souls in purgatory maybe? Roman Catholics like that verse too. But when “Soloman” or the psalmists say there is no consciousness after death were they mistaken or just stuck in their…[Read more]

No,Comfort doesn’t preach one can accept Christ and keep on sinning without concern. Some other evangelicals consider Comfort a legalist for his outspoken stance against that very thing.

Oh you threw something else in there before I answered and that is fine.And what you say just shows how you twist the words to make them fit what you want them to be.Bravo on being another good religionist!
AndrewAD replied to the topic Upon this rock, Jesus Christ built his Church in the forum Truth or Tradition 9 years, 6 months ago
“Seeing God as being loot”-but according to Paul this being has been honored with a higher state than he had before his preexistence with God because of his humility in becoming a human and servant obedient unto death. Will you bow to this being called Jesus Christ? Do you bow to him now? If not you’re damned according to your own beliefs.

Dear Kerwin, we must have replied at the same time since now I see your latest post.
You say Jesus somehow embodies the word and shares the place of the word but is somehow not the word? You have a very strange problem imo. Why not just say you don’t accept the gospel of John? Others do and if you feel that way it’s okay with me.I won’t damn you…[Read more]

You are losing me Kerwin. You say Jesus is the one true God but deny he is the Word? I don’t get your theology here.? Or are you saying that believing that Jesus is human is hard to believe? Yes I believe he was human but the parable of the sower has nothing to do with that as I see it. Jesus point in that parable was not about himself being…[Read more]

So Kerwin, I take it that you agree with Gene that “Jesus was never God’s Word”?

Dear Kerwin,
You must be one of the strange “jews” I spoke of as you plainly deny what St John’s prologue plainly speaks of. You must be of those who he came to but received him not. I pity your poor soul,but don’t worry I still love you. (:
