    Mike ………….I have answered that as well as they have Phil 2 is not talking about Jesus' Preexistence before his (earth) existence , But He existed (while on earth with the nature of GOD) and He did not use it to try to rob GOD to be made equal with GOD. Paul was referencing to his (earthly) existence , that was a past time at the time…[Read more]

    DBF………..Then produce a single Scripture that say (ALL) are (BORN) Sinners. That will suffice i assure your. While scripture say all have sinned where does it say all are (BORN sinners.

And because i don't agree with you or others doesn't mean the spirit of God is dormant in me, in fact it may be just the opposite, what's…[Read more]
