Hi Gene,

You: AND the second is “LIKE” unto it, ( but not the same). You shall love you neighbor as thyself .
The “Second” is not the same as the first, DANNY.

Me: Jesus Christ is in the first, because He is the only begotten Son of God. John 3:16

@genebalthrop

Hi Gene,

You: This is the way most churches exist today, they have replaced the love for, God the Father , for their LOVE FOR JESUS.

Me: We should love BOTH of them.
1 Corinthians 16:22 If any man love not the Lord Jesus Christ, let him be Anathema Maranatha.

@GeneBalthrop

You said to DT: Even a loose cannon like yourself should be able to understand it.

Me: Good. But even you can’t understand the simple biblical fact that Jesus Christ died for our sins (1 Corinthians 15:3).

Don’t throw bricks when you live in a glass house…

@genebalthrop

You: Not that Jesus’ sacrifice itself forgives our sins…

Me: Matthew 26:28 For this is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many for the remission of sins.

Hebrews 9:22 …without shedding of blood is no remission.

1 John 1:7 …the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.

@genebalthrop

Maybe this verse will convince you.
Romans 5:10
For if, when we were enemies, 👉we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son,👈 much more, being reconciled, we shall be saved by his life.

We were reconciled to God by the death of his Son.
Do you agree?

@genebalthrop

Hi Gene,

Revelation 1:5
And from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, and the first begotten of the dead, and the prince of the kings of the earth. Unto him that loved us, 👉and washed us from our sins in his own blood,👈

Do you agree?

@genebalthrop

Hi Gene,

You said: Jesus’ life (his blood) was an example for the forgiveness of sins.

Me: The Bible says otherwise. Ephesians 1:7
In whom we have redemption through his blood, 👉the forgiveness of sins👈, according to the riches of his grace;

Amen.

Hi Nick and Gene,

The pre-existence of Jesus Christ is very important.
God gave us something that He already had and His love for us was shown in that act of giving.
John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever
believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
If He…[Read more]

@genebalthrop

We are no longer under any “law”, (forced compliance).

I thought you didn’t believe in free will?

@genebalthrop

You: Jesus did not die for anyone’s personal sin debt.

Me: For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; 1 Corinthians 15:3

@genebalthrop

You: “MY SAVIOR AND JESUS’ SAVIOR IS GOD THE FATHER” , NONE OTHER.

Me: And we have seen and do testify that the Father sent the Son to be the Saviour of the world.
1 John 4:14

@genebalthrop

Why are you always trying to make Jesus appear different then we are?  Jesus is the “first of many brethren to be born into the kingdom of God”, not the only one to be

Wrong!

If he existed in the form of God, then he is not like us. But if he further emptied himself and came in the flesh and lived as a baby, infant, teenager, man,…[Read more]

Danny do you know if you have recieved the , spirit of truth yet?

Yes, I gave my life to Jesus Christ when I was 16.

My answer to your objections:

@t8 @genebalthrop @berean @Lightenup @Jodi @carmel

Here’s an argument by William Carpenter from the year 1885:

If the Earth were a globe, there certainly would be—if we could imagine the thing to be peopled all round—“antipodes:” “people who,” says the dictionary, “living exactly on the opposite side of the globe to ourselves, have their feet op…[Read more]

Danny: @t8 @genebalthrop

Yes, God called the raqia heaven. But there are three heavens. (2 Corinthians 12:2)
I agree with Mike and Berean that the raqia is not the highest heaven.

Yes.  When God created the raqia and named it heaven, it was the ONLY heaven.  As time went by, God’s people started differentiating between place where the clouds are…[Read more]

Hi Proclaimer and Gene,

This image will explain everything accurate:

@t8 @genebalthrop

Hi Proclaimer and Gene,

I will give you the argument which totally destroys the globe lie.
I said it many times. Let me repeat it one last time:
The idea that people are standing, ships are sailing and planes are flying upside down on certain parts of Earth while others tilted at 90 degrees and all other impossible angles is…[Read more]

Proclaimer: Yes @genebalthrop

Mike is delusional.

Says the guy who just made this argument…

Proclaimer:  There is also the fact that the small ball is attached to a rod in this device, so it would eventually reach a point of maximum closeness because of that.

Really?  Um… if the thread (not rod) to which the small ball is attached can aff…[Read more]
