Jesus said (not me)…….“the words I am telling you are “NOT” MY WORDS,  but the words of him that sent me”. 

Question is do you,  “truly”,  believe Jesus and what he himself said?  

Me

Yes I believe Jesus AND what he himself Saïd.

WHOM WILL YOU CHOOSE?
According to early Greek manuscripts, the full name of Barabbas, the prisoner who was released instead of Jesus, was actually Jesus Barabbas. The story of Barabbas is an interesting one. The Gospel accounts explain how Pontius Pilate gave the Jewish people the choice of releasing…[Read more]

Jesus is “called” the word of God” , because he does not tell us “his”  own words, but the words of God.   

Me

It is true, Jesus on earth did not take personal initiatives, he always consulted his Father in prayer and the Spirit guided him in all things.

But it WAS ALSO TRUE IN THE BIGINNING WHEN HE WAS WITH GOD AND WAS GOD.

Berean,

All things connect, this seems to be your problem and thus why you teach confusion and contradiction.

You say that Jesus represents the Word as meaning he pre-existed as God’s only begotten Son and spoke creation into existence.

In the beginning the Son of God existed and his primary title/name was to be “THE WORD OF G…[Read more]

Hi Jodi

You

Do you make the connection of Jesus saying that God was IN him to the fact that we are told that God gave him His Spirit without measure?  

Me

who is the WORD?
That’s the title of this thread.

The answer that the Bible gives and that I approve of is: THE SON OF GOD.

HOWEVER, A WORD THAT GOD SPEAKS CANNOT BE GOD.

DOESN’T LUKE 16:16 MEAN JESUS DID AWAY WITH THE OLD TESTAMENT?
In this verse, Jesus is speaking to the Pharisees “who were lovers of money” (v. 14). Christ had just rebuked those who worshiped “mammon” (v. 13). He now turns to these religious leaders who “heard all these things and they derided Him” (v. 14…[Read more]

Berean, if Jesus represents some eternal God who came to earth to be a temporary human, him being raised from the dead unto life is not really at all significant, it takes away from him actually being a firstborn of many brethren. He’s not really the Son of Man who was exalted to God’s right hand, nor is he really the man who became the fir…[Read more]

Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus:
Who, being in the form of God, thought it not difficult to be equal with God:
But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men:
And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death,…[Read more]
