Berean…..Jesus angel/ messenger told John what God told him. That’s who “God” sent tell his servant “John”, who then took the message to God’s servants in the churches. Haven’t you noticed what Jesus said after the end of what, he sent John to tell the churches , ” hear what the “Spirit” says unto the Churches, and again , to those…[Read more]

Berean, not only “servant” but the “messenger” also, God sent to “testify” things to us OK., I ask you we are not talking about his “devinity” now, I am trying to keep this topic simple for right now. Berean, so we can all stay focused, and not Jettisoned or turned of in another direction, rather Jesus was a devine , servant or messenger…[Read more]

Berean, let’s not rights now descuss the devinity issue, ok we can do that later. My question is again , by scripture can we establish, that Jesus is indeed referred to as a “servant” and a “messenger” of God,?, I would like a solid yes or no answer before we move on.? I am not saying he not more then that, but is that also, among other…[Read more]

Berean. ….OK then you do believe he was a “servant” correct?, now then do you also believe he was God the Fathers “messenger” to all humanity?
I don’t want to go all over the place on this subject ok, let’s just stay focused on just a few thing at a time Berean, and I believe everyone here can really get something out of our descussion were…[Read more]

Proclaimer. …..God is a Spirit, no man can see God and live, scripture says. God speaks sometimes “first person” in those he is “in”, it was not Jesus who said “destory this temple and in three days , l , (God the Father), shall raise it up”, that was God the Father speaking through the mouth of Jesus “first person”. It wasn’t Jesus wh…[Read more]

Berean,,,, did you notice the word “or” there?, you see It could refer to Jesus as one thing, but not the other. That is why it says “or” , it dosen’t say “and” but “or” , yes Jesus is the first of all of GOD THE Fathers “creation” from “mankind” to inherit the Kingdom of God, the first to be raised back from the dead to be given eternal life,…[Read more]

Proclaimer. ……having the devine “nature” “In” us, is not saying we are a Devine “BEING”, That would mean we are a deity, a God and there for an object of worship. Jesus had the devine nature “in” him also, but that never made himself, a God, now did it?

Edj…..we have been through this before, the word freewill there means in Hebrew to ” Volunteer, there is no word in hebrew as “freewill” in the Hebrew language, it”s simply a person who out of their own desire does something. I do believe we have “freedom” to exercise our desires or Wills, but that is not talking about how the will “itself”…[Read more]

Berean……you also believe Jesus was making himself to Be God, Right? So do you and those Jews believe the same thing? DON’T you also believe Jesus was a deity, a “devine” being?
Why have you backed of on our descussion on the book of Revelations? Did Proclaimer derail you, or you simple don’t have an answer.

Proclaimer, first of all you are lying again, or maybe completely forgetful, I never said we can choose what is influencing us, please post where I ever said that.

So you will agree what is put into or minds causes us to do it, right?, I would argue that what ever is put in you mind will with enough repetivity “cause you” to do it. IN TIME OF WAR, it is called “brain washing” , nothing “Free” with those minds is there?
