Okay. If someone asks a question like: “How many commandments are there”, then that seems like a fair question that cannot be answered with a yes / no response so giving your answer is good. You should answer that question. If a question is deemed inappropriate, then you can take that up with the Admin before answe…

“Alone” and “By Myself” means “with No-Helper” – do you agree?

Hi Nick,

Your son can be playing right next to you the whole time you are building the playhouse for him “alone”

Hi T8,

I agree it was “because of” Jesus and “through” Jesus that God created the world.
But NOT through his help, instead it was through his death on the cross.

“the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world” (Rev 13:8)

If I built a tree-fort for my son, then yes I could be the only builder. But if it weren’t for my son, I would not have built it.

OK, but how does that dismiss the words “alone” and “by myself”?

Let’s say it is not the correct interpretation. Then how do you explain away these?

Colossians 1:16
for through him God created everything in the heavenly realms and on earth. He made the things we can see and the things we can’t see–such as thrones, kingdoms, rulers, and authorities in the unseen world. Everything was created through him and f…

Hi T8,

So alone doesn’t ‘really’ mean alone then right?

Hi Nick,

Do you know what “God’s Grace” is?

Hi T8,

If we are to believe Isaiah 44:24, then Jesus could not be acting
as God’s helper in helping God create the heavens and the Earth.

Thus saith the LORD, thy redeemer, and he that formed thee from the womb,
I the LORD that maketh all things; that stretcheth forth the heavens alone;
that spreadeth abroad the earth by myself;” (Isaiah…[Read more]

Hi Kerwin,

How do Jesus’ words judge in the last day?

“He that rejecteth me, and receiveth not my words, hath one that judgeth him:
the word that I have spoken, the same shall judge him in the last day.” (John 12:48)

Hi t8,

The Pharisees would love your literal and legalistic Hotseat.

No way Jesus Christ would satisfy your demands.

Hi Nick,

When the Pharisees ask Christ if he was the Messiah, he replied in the affirmative (ref. Mark 14:62).

So yes, I believe there are things encoded in the Bible.

Hi Mark,

My question was not about ‘things’ – but it was specific to “Proof of God” –
do you believe “Proof of God” was encoded into the Bible? “Yes” or “No”?

There is a code in there somewhere. I just don’t have time to figure it out.

Peace Ed

Hi Mark,

You don’t have to, others have figured it out for you…

Ed. I know you are going to take this as a spin, but whatever.

All those Bibles say hate. The one i read my whole life said hate. The meaning is there. You missed the whole point of what that sentence said.

It was SYMBOLIC Ed. Not literal. Just like you are saying. You do not literally hate everybody in your life

But compared to God your…

I said what if we DO know the answer and the answer is not a yes or a no? We can’t say we don’t know because we do know. That’s a forced misstatement.
