    Quote (mikeboll64 @ Sep. 18 2010,22:36)Hi Mr. B Fun,What do you make of Isaiah 61:1?  It starts, “Ruwach Adonai YHVH is upon me……”  Do you read that as “Spirit Lord Jehovah is upon me…..”?  Would it help if you knew that in Like 4:18, Jesus read those words from a scroll in a synagogue as, “The Spirit OF the Lord is upon me…….”?I've sh…[Read more]

    Hi Mike,How about YHWH being the name of YHWH?

    SF,Technically SF is right…..Jesus was not “created” he was “pro-created”.That is why the terms “firstborn”, only “begotten” are used.The word “son” should've been a tip-off that Jesus is not God…who is the Father.We know that Adam was “created” because YHWH Elohim formed him out of dust. We know that angels are called sons of God and that we…[Read more]

    Mike, How do you account for Ruwach Elohim? Is Ruwach a separate entity as displayed in Genesis 1:2? Or do you place Ruwach Elohim inside of YHWH Elohim, who is the other separate entity of Elohim?Why the identification of the 3 entities: Elohim, YHWH and Ruwach?If YHWH is the “only” God, why start out God's book with a generic “title” as you…[Read more]

    Mike,To tell you the truth, all I was hoping from this debate is that you could see that Elohim consists of two essences YHWH and Ruwach…and that they are part OF Elohim.I get that information from the connection of the word Elohim to their “essence's “Names””……”Ruwach” Elohim and “YHWH” Elohim.These essences are separate individuals and…[Read more]

    Mike,I asked this but you haven't addressed it:You asked me how the Spirit was “female” because it didn't say so in the sentence….ME: the word “Spirit” in Hebrew in this sentence is “ruwach”. Following this to Strong's Lexicon the number is H7307 and spirit is a feminine noun.If you don't like using “female” I could use “feminine”, just as…[Read more]

    To address another concern in a post elsewhere:Elohim is the individual entity with the two essences, thus the plural majestic identifying Elohim (Supreme Being) as singular. Pronoun used for Elohim is “He”.You are correct; YHWH or YHWH Elohim is the male essence of Elohim and would be addressed as “He”.Many verses talk about YHWH or YHWH Elohim…[Read more]

    Summary:Gen 1:1 shows Elohim as being “God”.Gen 1:2 shows Ruwach Elohim, as a separate entity distinct from Elohim.Gen 2:4 shows YHWH Elohim, as a separate entity distinct from Elohim, or Ruwach Elohim.Gen 1:27 shows Elohim's image; male and female.

    Dennison,When you begin with the OT you have a solid foundation.However, when people don't want to believe the OT, and the Hebrew is changed to fit whatever doctrine a person desires, they will do the same when it comes to Greek.WITHIN Spirit Elohim is “the Spirit of YHWH” (IS 11:2). Since Spirit YHWH is part of Spirit Elohim you need to correctly…[Read more]

    All,To those that think that Spirit Elohim is a part of YHWH how could anyone commit the “unpardonable” sin? Your way, they would be sinning against YHWH but this Scripture isn't saying that…it is saying that you can blasphemy/sin against Spirit (Elohim)….who is a separate and distinct “person” than YHWH.Mat 12:31 “Therefore I say to you, any…[Read more]
