Her he…are you impling that your Yeshua, a creature, is capable of eavesdropping on potentially thousands of simultaneously uttered prayers and discerning their individual content? That's impressive, don't you think? ****************************Not “eavesdropping” – that would mean that Jesus is listening secretly or something? Jesus is the Son…[Read more]

It appears that you are becoming annoyed with this line of questioning? I'm just trying to establish what the basis for your companionship with Yeshua is. At present I have no idea because you haven't given me anything solid to work with. Is this much true? – you, not3, do not actively communicate with Yeshua with your mind. If there is…[Read more]

94 writes:He is the head of the church, and he hears any prayers that go to the Father…..*******************This indeed is the truth. Jesus is our Mediator! An interesting point that should not go without saying – Jesus hears our prayers to the Father. I imagine that they have discussions about these prayers. God consults with his Son, and…[Read more]

How can you have any kind of relationship with someone when there is no communicative interaction? ***********************I never said there wasn't any communication interaction, because there is. I just didn't give you the answer you were looking for apparently? Again, some things are spiritually discerned. Your relationship with Jesus is…[Read more]

Safer to overestimate the Son, than to underestimate Him. That's what I think. *****************I wonder what Peter thought when he was asked, “Who do you say that I am?” He had a choice at that point. Do I overestimate the Son or underestimate him? GOD told him the answer – lucky Peter! We should look to this answer and claim it as our own.…[Read more]

I better head to bed – the screen is looking fuzzy to me – it's about 12:20 in the morning here, and we have an early morning Little League game to go to I'll check back tomorrow. Good to chat with you Isaiah! Goodnight.

Isaiah, forgive me, it's late here and I'm getting drowsy – can you say it a different way? I'm not getting your point.Life was “in” Christ because God is the source of that life. God gave life to Jesus. He provided the seed (which contained life).

I just read the main passage in 1 Corinthians for this thread.Verse 28 is a bit perplexing. If there is co-equality within the triune God – how can Jesus be made subject to “God” ? So that this “God” can be all in all? What would that make Jesus then?

Seed = Source1 John 3:9No one who is born of God will continue to sin, because God's seed remains in him; he cannot go on sinning, because he has been born of God.1 Peter 1:23For you have been born again, not of perishable seed, but of imperishable, through the living and enduring word of God.

Amen Come, Lord Jesus.********************This is a prayer?

What is ambiguous about my answer?Isaiah, I like you. You are a black and white kind of guy, huh? We need more people like you in the world! However, I cannot tell you “how” Jesus and I are friends. I mean, we don't hang out at the mall, and he doesn't call me on the phone. But he awakens my spirit (the spirit God gave me), and he moves me to…[Read more]

I tremble at what God must think of those who have turned the gift of his Son into a mythical concoction.

Ha – I wish I could, Nick. I am a baby scholar…..that is why I'm here……to learn from you guys where all these great scriptures are! Thanks!

Then show me scripture that says we cant pray to Jesus???*****************I cannot do that either.I can show you scripture where Jesus gave a lesson on prayer and how to do it….

Well, I'm afraid I cannot give you scripture because there isn't a scripture that says we have to pray to Jesus?

And most of all a “plan” cannot have “life (zoe) in Him”. ***********************”Life in Him” – isn't seed alive in you?

We can not have an intimate relationship apart from prayer to him.**************The problem with this WJ is that it is not Biblical.

Isaiah writes:Okay, let's distill this down to it's basic elements Not3. How do you personally have companionship with Yeshua? Please be specific. *************Spirit to spirit. God has given Jesus the spirit without measure. God has also given me his holy spirit.Prayer is reserved for God. Even Paul who spoke with Jesus after the resurrection,…[Read more]

How can a son be his father before he is born? How can his son be “with” him before he is born? What does a father contribute to create a son? What is with him – SEED.In the beginning was the plan for a son, and the son was with God as a future reality, and the son was God because he was not yet born.But I do believe that the “word” was not…[Read more]
