He was and had to be ‘exactly” like us in “every way”

I agree with that.
That’s what Hebrews 2:17 says.

God bless,

Gene and Jodi,

Maybe you are right that Jesus started His life as a human being.
Born of the Holy Spirit from Mary.
I have to research this.
Thanks for your posts.

God bless,

Danny…..question, in what way did “one mans sin, make “all” men sinners? Why was I made a sinner , because of Adam, ? Better yet in what way , was I “made” a-sinner because of what Adam did? Please try to be clear on this question ok?

Well, I don’t have all the answers.
All I know is that the God of the Bible is just and righteous.

Gene: Well, it is one sentence.
“And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us…”
Who dwelt among us?
“and we beheld His glory…”
Whose glory?
“the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth.”
This is clearly talking about Jesus!

@genebalthrop

Gene,

John 1:14 clearly identifies Jesus as the Word.
And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.

and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father

Danny……the word “before”, Used there, meant Jesus was “greater” in importance then Abraham was.

That’s not true.
The word “before” in John 8:58 is Strong’s Greek: 4250. πρίν (prin) — 13 Occurrences

There is not a single scripture that shows any activity of him until after his birth on this earth.

Gene, you are wrong.
John 8:58 Jesus said to them, “Truly, truly I say to you, before Abraham was born, I am.”
Before Abraham was (past tense), Jesus is (present tense). Jesus was claiming pre-existence.
Notice Jesus didn’t say, “Tr…[Read more]

Gene, No one denies the spirit of God the Father.
But Jesus himself has a spirit too – the spirit of Christ.
See Galatians 4:6!
We need BOTH. See John 14:23!

God bless,

Danny

Good Job Danny!

@genebalthrop

If Jesus Christ is just a man, why did Paul write, “I am crucified with Christ, nevertheless I live; yet not I, BUT CHRIST LIVES IN ME (Gal. 2:20)?”
How can a mere man live in Paul and the rest of the New Testament believers all at once without also being God?

@genebalthrop

Gene, you always say Jesus was a man.
Well, I agree. Jesus was a man here on earth.
He was not a ghost with a human shell.
John 1:14 “The Word became flesh – man
What is your point?

God bless,

Danny

@genebalthrop

Are you and your Father the same person?

I never said that Jesus is the Father.
Yahweh is the God and Father of Jesus Christ.

@genebalthrop

Gene can you say our Saviour Jesus Christ?
If not then please read 2 Timothy 1:10
“But is now made manifest by the appearing of our Saviour Jesus Christ, who hath abolished death, and hath brought life and immortality to light through the gospel:”

God bless,

Danny

@genebalthrop

“No” I don’t believe Jesus is my savior

Then I urge you to accept Jesus Christ as your personal Savior.
Because Jesus Christ is the Savior of the world.
1 John 4:14 “We have seen and testify that the Father
has sent the Son as the Savior of the world.”

Question is Danny , do you believe what God says

Yes, I do.

Hi Gene,

Is Jesus Christ your Savior?
