HI, Berean,
Thank you!
Honestly speaking, I posted only half of what I wrote, as I added a part that was dedicated to the different perceptions among the scholars of Revelation. Hereunder are two different versions of Rev. 2:4
ESV: But I have this against you, that you have abandoned the love you had AT FIRST.
NAS: But I have this against you,…[Read more]

Hi Gene,

But you never really answer anything asked of you,

Hi Gene,
YOU: Berean……you still avoided the question,
it was the Father that so loved us that “HE” , gave “HIS” SON ,
nowhere does it say the Son loved us or the world so much he, the Son gave his only Soul for us, In fact Jesus ask God the Father to take his dying command away from him.
So it wasn’t because of Jesus’ great love…[Read more]

Carmel, now let’s do the same with Rev 4 and 5…
Rev 4:2… At once I was in the Spirit, and I saw a throne standing in heaven, with someone seated on it.
Notice there is only one person on that throne – not three.
John1:1IN the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God,
and the Word was God.

Hi Mike,
You: And if you want to say that
the Holy Spirit is a member of the Godhead who spoke through it, then
I can claim that Moses, the vision, and David are members of the Godhead who spoke through them.

Hi Mike,
YOU: Not at all. I’m telling you that if the dispute is between Architect John and Lawyer Jim, the mediator cannot be EITHER Architect John OR Lawyer Jim. A mediator cannot be one of the parties he mediates between.
In the case we’re discussing, one of the parties is “God”. Therefore Jesus, as mediator cannot be “God”.[Read more]

It was Jesus body that was resurrected on resurrection day,
His spirit was in the hands of the Father at the time of the last breath on the cross.

Hi Gene,
You: To all…….Scripture say , sin entered in this world by “MAN” , and by “a MAN” it was “atoned for.” No where does it say , by a being “morphed” into a human body was our sins atoned for.
Scripture clearly says:
Psalm 49: 7No brother can redeem,
nor shall man redeem:
he shall not give to God his ransom,
