Mike,

You said:

Because the God of the Bible is a single-person entity called “He” and “Him”, and who loved the world so much that HE gave HIS only begotten Son.  And the God that you worship is a multi-person entity who is also, for some odd reason, called “He” and “Him”, but who does NOT have a son that “He” gave because “He” so loved the wo…

Mike,

You asked:

For example, are they accusing him of claiming to be Yahweh?

Yes, as the Son of God has the same name as His Father.

Hi Jodi,

Yes it’s been awhile. I’m doing great and presently juggling a lot of balls in the air, ha., thanks for asking. How have you been? I have a small window of time so I won’t be addressing everything you have asked here but hopefully things will slow down a bit in a couple of weeks and then I can address more things. I’m having a house…[Read more]

God can produce a son and many sons.
Did the only begotten son come by producing or reproducing? What do you think?

Hi Gene,

Was God first in the rich young ruler’s life? How can you tell?

Also, don’t forget to tell us who is on the Father’s throne with the Father. Thanks!

Hi Gene,

I’m thankful for your question about the “good Master” verse. I dug into the Greek and what I wrote was as a result of seeking out the matter. Maybe you can be real specific with what I said that you claim as “spin.” I would be happy to explain it further to you.

Btw, please answer this…who is on the Father’s throne with the Father…[Read more]

It’s my pleasure, Berean! Thanks for the encouraging words 😉

Hi Gene,

Regarding my question here: “Where in the story does Jesus deny that He is good? If you believe that Jesus is not good, what does He lack in your opinion?”

You said:

Jesus “LACKED” nothing,  he was just being honest, “there is “none” good but “ONE”,  God the Father “alone.” . Why would Jesus say to her, “why”  callest “ME” good”, if he…

Mike,

You said:

Yahweh is that Most High God of gods.  Jesus is one of the other gods of whom Yahweh is God.

Yahweh is also the Lord of lords, not just God of gods. Jesus is the Lord of lords.

Mike you asked:

John 3:16… For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son…

Just to be clear, the God who so loved the world is NOT the God you worship and serve.  Is that correct?

Why would you say that?

Just to be clear, the God who spoke to Jews’ ancestors through prophets and to the Jews through Jesus is NOT the God you worship and ser…

Mike,

You said:

 I think that it clearly refers to the one name.  How about you?

I don’t think that is is clear to be only one name “Yahweh, our Righteousness.”

I do believe that the Father is righteous, however it is the Son that is “our” righteousness and hence called “Yahweh, our righteousness.”

Also, regarding Jerusalem being called “…[Read more]

Hi Mike,

You said:

Do you believe that the Jews thought that Jesus was making himself out to be the Most High God that no man has ever seen?  As if Jesus was literally trying to convince people that he was the very God who dwells in unapproachable light – whom no man can see and live?

It seems to me that the Jews thought that Jesus was maki…[Read more]

Mike,

You asked:

Kathi, I also just noticed something in Rev 3:12 that might be huge.  Notice that Jesus is going to write on them (1) the name of his God, (2) the name of the city of his God, ie: New Jerusalem, and (3) his own new name.

What the freak?  Is that Jesus telling us point blank that “Yahweh Our Righteousness” IS the name of New J…

Mike,

The God that I worship as the creator is Yahweh who is both the Father and the Son together, two distinct persons who created the world in unity. So, your answer is “NO,” the Father and the Son together as the creator do not have a son named Jesus, the Son who created with the Father as Yahweh, is Jesus.

Let US make man… The “US” do not…[Read more]

Berean,

Regarding my question to you here:

That “servant” you write of is called Yahweh at times and served with creating the universe, is that what you believe?

You said: My answer is a BIG YES!

Amen!

Now, please confirm that you believe the Father is called Yahweh and His own Son is called Yahweh and both are involved in bringing about cre…[Read more]
