Hi Ed J,

Your questions don’t fit because I don’t see Jesus as a God, but as an appointed *RULER and judge by YHVH, who does rule and judge justly because YHVH’s Spirit is upon him directing all his ways.

There is none like YHVH, He is a ruler and a judge all in a class of His very own, as He has direct control overall other rulers and judge…

Saying that he was alive in heaven befor he ever existed and the returned to heaven where he existed in the past is a Lie.

Gene,

Your own bible says “the spirit of Christ” existed before Jesus was born., so how can you say that?

“Of which salvation the prophets have enquired and searched diligently,
who prophesied of the grace that should come…[Read more]

Hi Jodi,

YAY!

Our conversation has produced fruit!

Hebrews 11:3
Darby Bible Translation
By faith we apprehend that the worlds were framed by word of God,
so that that which is seen should not take its origin from things which appear.

I’d be happy with you just addressing the last green question at the end of that post – which is asked again in this post.

Ed, (1)is it possible that the phrase “the word of God” can sometimes refer to words that God actually spoke – (2)and other times to a living person who is God’s preeminent spokesman?

Hi Mike,

1) That is what it means
2) No…[Read more]

1. The Holy Spirit of God became flesh?

2. And as a flesh entity, the Holy Spirit displayed the glory of God’s only begotten Son?

3. John the Baptizer was testifying about the Holy Spirit of God when he pointed to the man Jesus, and said this is the person I spoke about earlier?

4a. John and the others saw God’s Holy Spirit with their fle…

2a Jesus was made ‘a god’ to the world.
2b because like Pharaoh, they too do not believe YHVH is God.

Did I capture the gist of what you are saying correctly?

Hi Jodi,

Was your long and convoluted essay a “Yes” or a “No”?

1. Jesus was conceived in the flesh: by Mary, his mother – and God’s HolySpirit, his father.
2. Jesus was born as “the Spirit of Christ” born Bethlehem, which came from everlasting.
3. Jesus claims to be “THE” “Son of God”.
4. God himself confirming Jesus is God’s Son, through a voice at baptism by John the baptist.

Conclus…

Berean, watch this video to gain some insight:

Berean,

You should clarify what you believe so that belief
may be considered in ANY point you make about Jesus.
You instead focus on arguing points that are unclear.

Berean,

T8 is not asking you to prove any one single point of what you believe.
But is instead asking you to give a brief summery of what you believe.
Detail can always be looked at to see if any of the claims are true.

I’ll answer his question to show you it is not at all difficult.

Edj…..Yes, God and his word are one and the same, just as our words and us are one and the same , Jesus plainly said this, “the words I am telling you are ‘NOT” my words, but the words of him that sent me. Had they “truly believed” Jesus, as they say they do, then they would have understood that. Jesus also said the Father told him not only wh…

EDJ……The “word” is Spirit, all word “are” Spirit, they come forth from minds, our GOD ‘IS” SPIRIT, and his words ARE SPIRIT. If we are telling someone what someone else has say we are quoting His or Her SPIRIT.

Jesus said the words I am telling you “are spirit”, but remember he said those words were “not” his words. He also said in Revelat…

@berean

If you are not going to respond to my posts at H-net, neither will I respond to your posts.

However if you address what I post, I will certainly address what you post as well.

DON”T make the mistake of thinking I cannot respond to your misconceptions!

God speaks truth and Jesus is the truth. I’ve said it for years, if people understood the difference between an attribute and a person, then most debates here would be unnecessary.

Hi T8,

Then you agree “The Word” is not Jesus.

The Holy Spirit will come on you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you.

(1)So the Holy Spirit fathered Jesus, (2)thus he is his own Father. (3)Whereas if the Holy Spirit is the Father’s own spirit, (4)then it makes sense.

Hi T8,

1) Yes
2) No, he is the Father of Jesus as you just stated
3) Yes
4) bingo you got it now (see A…[Read more]

(1a)Yes Moses was made ‘a god’ to Pharaoh, (1b)because Pharaoh did not believe YHVH was God.
/
(2a)who are you claiming Jesus was made ‘a god’ to?
(2b)And for what purpose?

Hi Jodi,

Let me see if I unpacked what you said correctly,
since you provide essays instead of simple answers.

2a Jesus was made ‘a god’ to the world.
2b because like Ph…[Read more]

Hi T8,

I agree with your comments re: Jodi. Well said.

Jodi unfortunately refuses to acknowledge the plain meaning of text in scripture but instead has to manipulate it to fit in to a predetermined theological position she holds.

Bingo Pilgrim,

“ye are even my witnesses.
Is there ‘a God’ beside me? yea,
there is “n…[Read more]
