New Catholic Encyclopedia Encyclopedia “The majority of N T texts reveal God’s spirit as something, not someone; this is especially seen in the parallelism between the spirit and the power of God.” (1967, Vol. XIII, p. 575) It also reports: “The Apologists spoke too haltingly of the Spirit; with a measure of anticipation, one might say too imp…[Read more]

Ed, I started many many threads dealing with this very fallacy.Jesus is called “lord”God is called “lord”THEREFORE, Jesus is God.HOWEVER, MANY MANY OTHERS ARE CALLED LORD. Jesus is called “savior”God is called “savior”THEREFORE, they are the same person.HOWEVER, OTHERS ARE CALLED SAVIOR.Ed, Just because two are called by the same word, does not…[Read more]

Quote Hi David,You mean you don't believe “The Bible” is God's word?I don't remember saying that.A “word” is something that conveys a message.BOTH the Bible and Jesus conveyed a message.THIS DOES NOT MEAN THEY HAVE THE SAME IDENTITY!

Hamburger is better than nothing.Nothing is better than steak.Therefore hamburger is better than steak.No cat has two tails.Every cat has one more tail than no cat.Therefore every cat has three tails.

Quote I will give a comparative example. The Bible is God's word,And John 1:1 says: “The word” was God! Ed, you are really good at this fallacy. I have a list of a couple hundred fallacies somewhere. Most of them are complicated and in Latin, but I will try to find the name for the error you continue to commit.

Quote hi davidto me i understand that the Holy spirit is of God ,not God That makes sense Pierre, since it is something called the “holy spirit OF God.”

I think it's a very well established fact that people find meaning where there is none.People find meaning where there is none.People want meaning. They look for meaning. And they find meaning…where there is none.And they often subtely change things to make meaning where there is none.I'm going to randomly pick one of your names below,…[Read more]

Ed, does this scripture exist:Jesus “sprang from the seed of David according to the flesh.” (Ro 1:3)This is a “yes” or “no” question. To make it simple, I will let “yes” mean “yes” and “no” or silence mean “no.”So you don't even have to do anything. You just have to continue to ignore this scripture and this post, and that will be your answer.

“HolySpirit is “GOD: The Father” of Jesus Christ”If the “HolySpirit is God” then what does the following scripture mean?“Eph.4:30 And grieve not the holy Spirit of God,”Is this referring to the holy spirit of God?What do the hundreds of similar scriptures mean?(I'm looking for someone other than Ed to comment on what I actually ask, as he will…[Read more]

Quote Let's discuss the matter for the readers benefit and yours! –Ed.Ah, ed, you do care!

Quote Hi David,I don't care what 'you think' or what 'you don't think'!Your conversation proves otherwise. Stop conversing with me. I won't mind. But understand that you are unwilling to admit the existence of many scriptures. When people do this, I consider them blind.Quote I only care what “The Scripture teaches” and you're making'no case'…[Read more]

Quote The word 'above' is NOT in that verse?There are many words not in that verse. If you could explain your point.

Ed, since you obviously don't want to discuss this subject (or are unable) then lets go to where you want to go.Are you starting your own religion?How much exactly have you made from your donations towards your “research”?If you have some sort of revealed truth, why are you the only one?

Quote Hi David,1John 4:4: Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater ishe(HolySpirit) that is in you(Ed J), than he(2Cor.4:4) that is in the world. (Eph. 4:4-6)Ed.

Ed, I suggest consulting a dictionary. I still truly believe you have no idea what personification is. If you did, you wouldn't have agreed with me.
