YHWH said that He will send His Malak to bring the people into the land that He has prepared for them. In verse 21 YHWH said that His Malak has His name in Him. Then in verse 25 YHWH Himself calls His Malak by the name “YHWH your God.”Quote 20 “Behold, I send My Malak before you to keep you in the way and to bring you into the place which I have p…[Read more]

In Genesis 20:13 our translations have Abraham saying to Abimelech,“God caused me to wander.”But the Hebrew literally says,“The Gods caused me to wander.”The word “elohim” is always governed by the verb. If the verb is singular the word elohim is singular. But if the verb is plural the word elohim is plural. The verb is plural in Genesis 20:13. So…[Read more]

The early manuscripts of Jude 5:5Now I want to remind you, although you once fully knew it, that JESUS, who saved a people out of the land of Egypt, afterward destroyed those who did not believe.NetBible says that the “Jesus” reading in verse 5 has the strongest support and that the scribes changed it to “Lord.”:Quote 24 tc ‡ The reading ᾿Ιησοῦς (…[Read more]

Quote (Lightenup @ Feb. 16 2013,02:46)Hi Jack, I believe that the NT quotes the OT 'elohim' in regards to the elohim of Israel, as singular, that is why I don't think that you can make that argument.Yes, because God is a unity but a plural unity. The singular does not contradict the plural. Example: The U.S. Governnment is composed of three…[Read more]

The Logos is the source of enlightenment – something is lacking on the part of man; something is not understood. In order for man to expand his understanding of God, he must first be given access to the mind of God. The function of the Logos is to link the mind of man to the mind of God so that man might be able to think the way God thinks: to…[Read more]

To All,Please review the op to this thread. Anti-trinitarians misinterpret John 1:18 which says, “No man has seen God at any time….” They don't finish the verse. It goes on to say, “The only begotten God has explained Him.” The word “explained” defines the sense inwhich no man has “seen” God. It means that no man has comprehended God.Further…[Read more]

Quote (Lightenup @ June 23 2012,05:53)It seems she is feeling a little better. I will keep praying for her.Glad to hear she is feeling better. I should not have delayed in posting Keith's request.

I will be sure to let Keith know of your concerns and your prayers. I met him this last Thanksgiving weekend. We were in NC to visit relatives for the holiday nad Keith is only 20 minutes away. We had lunch together at a Mexican restaurant. He was looking forward to his marriage in January last and now he and his new wife are facing such a trying time.

Keith said:Quote Mike Lives in th OT and doesn't understand that all the types, shadows, saviours etc pointed to Jesus. Jesus with his own words said the scriptures testified of him. He said that all that came before him were theives and robbers.Amen brother! Paul said that Christ is the “body.” Even the NWT says “reality.” All the “saviors” in…[Read more]

Quote (Lightenup @ Mar. 03 2012,14:11)Tertullian's view:We have already asserted that God made the world, and all which it contains, by His Word, and Reason, and Power.
