Terra,What you ask is pointless.If you cannot understand a simple statement then I suggest you don't join in the discussion.But just to give A simplified ANSWER: when you open the top of a bottle containing a gas that has been confined as a body in the 'skin' of the bottle – does the gas not disperse in the surrounding air – HAS it not been FREED…[Read more]

Gene,And God is a Spirit.

Gene,So… Spirit is useless unless it is in a body to animate it…you say.And you also say,'God is a Spirit'….Gene, it is a good thing that God forgives such errors!Moreover, no one ever said that a 'Body of any kind is a Spirit' – you make up your own error then attribute that error to others!You are right that a spirit is in a physical body…[Read more]

Spirits don't have bodies because – they are Spirits – that's what 'Spirit' means : Without body!How difficult can it be – Spirit: Immaterial, without body.The body confines. It has to be contained as one unit.The Spirit frees. It has NO CONFINEMENT. It can go where it will.

Gene,The quote is not 'God made his Angel's Spirits'.It is 'God made his Angels Spirits' : He made his Spirit to be Messengers.He could have made MANKIND his 'Angels'/'Messengers' but He chose to make His Messengers those from the Spirit class.I don't think there is anyone else who has ever misinterprets that verse to say what you say it says.You…[Read more]

Mike,If something is Not White – does that mean that it can only be Black.Yes, that is what WJ is saying because he knows that any other way means he has to admit that others are also called 'God'. Notice that he shifts the discussion away from any answer that approaches the truth of what was asked of him.Just keep remembering that 'God' is a…[Read more]

Ask him the Name of the only Begotten Son of the One True God.Ask him who the Father of Angel Gabriel is? Or Archangel Michael? Or Satan?

Mike,WJ knows full well that there is ONLY ONE TRUE GOD.Ask him the Name of this ONE TRUE GOD.

Who was it that believes that there are other True Gods but only one is true?How can the statement make sense: There are Many true Gods but only one true God is a true God!!

WJ,There is not one here that claim 'Moses', 'Manoah' or 'Man' is 'God' meaning they are individual 'God the Almighty'. This is your own reckoning.It is clearly stated that 'God' is a Title just like 'King' but we also expressly know that of all those called 'Almighty God' (What was it that Manoah did to be called 'A God'? I can't remember!)WJ, it…[Read more]

Shimmer,Thank you – you are blessed to have godly discernment.WJ,I find it incredible that you cannot see that 'God' is a title – just like 'King'.As much as one may attribute that title to One grand almighty being, one must also bend to the fact, as a title, it can be attributed to as many as qualify to that title status.That title status is of…[Read more]

WJ,I see you pick and choose what you wish to respond to – and in doing so wait until you see an 'apparent' weak point and then decide to respond.It is clear that you refuse to acknowledge any part of my post which states that 'God' is a title.If 'God' is a title then it can be used of any, and as many, as qualify for that title.Did not the God…[Read more]

Shimmer, you are perfectly correct: 'One True God'.'One True God' – and as many 'none true Gods' as need be!Because the word or term 'God' means : 'Mighty One' and 'Supreme' … And do we not have many persons and things that are 'Mighty Ones' and 'Supreme' – but yet they, even they, are only Mighty and Supreme in their own category of being.There…[Read more]

This is all word play games.At one point WJ says 'Only one God' – then he later says 'Only one TRUE God'.It is clear there is a difference – and his arguments PLAY on that difference.Scriptures clearly mentions other Gods… Because 'God' is a TITLE.And a TITLE can be given to many in context.Kerwin, the Son of a God – is NOT a GOD…Kerwin, a God…[Read more]

Now all we need is for WJ to post a response to the questions in this thread.Please be careful what you post – so that the TOPIC of the thread is the TOPIC of your posts.I posted earlier concerning 'The Father of God' – can anyone add or refute this term?I mean if:- Jesus is the SON of The One True God- The Holy Spirit is the Holy Spirit of God-…[Read more]

Good post Mike.
Istari replied to the topic Monotheism = Belief in Only One God in the forum View Points 13 years, 6 months ago
Keith,Please can you confirm that the word or term 'God', is a TITLE.It is important to realise this to further understand more tortuous aspects of Scriptures.I mean, you may say that 'God' is a person. And that is true.But why say:-'My God', (The 'personal' God of the speaker – and commonly, an ASTONISHED OUTCRY) – mein Gott!!)-'Your God', (The…[Read more]

WJ,Is Jesus next to God?Does Jesus sit on a throne at the right hand of the Father?WJ, what does it mean to be 'at the right hand' of some one?
Istari replied to the topic Monotheism = Belief in Only One God in the forum View Points 13 years, 7 months ago
In fact, WJ, I uphold the Scriptures that you posted for this.It CLEARLY states that GOD is ONE – Not TWO (or THREE like Trinitarians say)Never ever is it ever said that GOD IS THREE – the One God is three…Never ever is it said 'We, the Three Gods of Abraham, and of Isaac, and of Jacob, are (is?) One'
