First understand the words in a secular non-spiritual way!

Hi Gene,   OK. To simplify lets first just look at them as 2 Greek words. Logos among other things means an idea or concept. Reema are just the words used to transmit the concept. OK. An example:   Today I had lunch. The word Today transmits the concept of the time of the event                                      The word I transmits to whom th…[Read more]

Hi betweenchristendomandjws,No. You are encouraging yourself to masturbate and you are encouraging yourself to believe it is sinful. God gives you the power to do that. If you believe masturbating seperates you from God then to you it is a sin. Jesus said “Sin no more.” Read my last post again slowly. I do not encourage you to sin. I do encourage…[Read more]

Hi SF,   That was an informative article. I went and read the article in it's entirety. This part you inserted:Quote Concept of Logos according to John:   Should read the Concept of Logos according to Barret's understanding of the book of John. Because in context that is what it is. The text you inserted isn't in the original article.   The we…[Read more]

Hi betweenchristendomandjws,   Your quote is about adultery and your asking about masturbation. Two different things. Jesus never addressed masturbation directly. I did find this sripture.Quote Leviticus 15:16 (King James Version) 16And if any man's seed of copulation go out from him, then he shall wash all his flesh in water, and be unclean…[Read more]

Hi Gene,  Right now I am applying Logos and Reema in other ways to build logical foundation. Like a table is a concept or Logos. The words/reema I use to define or clarify what a table is.  This concept of a table I have is defined by having a flat 3 dimensional top and 3 dimensional legs to support it. One sub-set of table is one that has 3 l…[Read more]

Hi Gene,   Do you believe God's spirit is in all of God's creation?   Do you believe God is infinite? Therefore, having no limiting parameter or form?   I do. I used these 2 premises to to build my entire speculative exploration of this issue.   I used the following logic to justify a spirit has form:Quote My friend, I am as open-minded as the…[Read more]

Hi Karmarie,     Quote Would it not be true to say, that those who try to be like Jesus as a man remain as a man, where those who try to be like Jesus as a God…….? Do you get me?   I am sorry I do not get you as you put '……..'. Fill that in and I will attempt to get you.   I truly don't think Gene got you either because he added 'as one…[Read more]

Hi Gene,   Please give me a break, just because I didn't write “Christ Jesus” or “Jesus Christ”every time I referred to the man Jesus doesn't mean I don't believe he is the anointed one of prophesy. Christ, Messiah, Annointed One,Khristos,Christos; 5 words with the same meaning. All of which are a title, not a name. According to the Jewish Bible,…[Read more]

ain't love grand!

Hi Everyone,   Hey! This thread has evolved/progressed and become a discussion of a topic that is better suited for the thread that Gene started called The word of God. What do you say to migraiting to that thread in the interest of thread name topic coherency? There we can explore the power and glory of the Word/words of God in a thread name…[Read more]

Hi 1+1+1=1, Quote Love is an estimation of the worth of a person's soul to you.This is like saying love is a method of sizing up the the value of another person's soul based on your own concept of what soul and love is. My Strong's shows me that the Hebrew word for love means affection. There is a heart-felt emotion in affection. Where is the hea…[Read more]

Hi karmarie,   I like to think that since God is holy his entire creation by nature is holy. Only those who succumb to the Adversary are made unholy. Jesus being the perfect son showed us the new way to participate in the divine nature and holiness of God. He was the embodiment of the perfect son.Quote Deuteronomy 8:5 (King James Version) 5Thou…[Read more]

Paladin,   I am still wrapping my mind around concepts such as perfect active and aorist. HTML is a method of presenting text. I am only proposing conventional usage.                                                  With Love and Respect,                                                        Wispring

Hi Everyone,    I would like to propose we make an agreement here in order to avoid mis-communications and mis-understandings. Firstly, we only use grammatical quotes (i.e. ” “) when actually quoting something. Whether that be scripture, one another, or some text-based source material. We have available for emphasizing; the bolden, the italicize, t…[Read more]

Karmarie, Everything is ok. I have a bucket of fish here I haven't even touched yet! With Love and Respect, Wispring

Hi Kerwin,Quote Have you tested your ownself to see if you truly believe that all things are possible with God.Yes.Quote Can God stop you from sinning?Yes.Quote I say this because I find that testing yourself constantly can aid you in growing in Christ; as to often we are not and soundly perched as we believe.This is a statement of your own truth,…[Read more]

Hi Tim,   The only thing rich about me is my personality! lol. I must have misread the tone of you post. It gave me the impression that you were troubled about something. You see, there is a new “tradition” being born into the world and this “tradition” is communicating via text/words via the internet. This whole internet thing was a…[Read more]
