Hi Sis Jodi,Welcome back it's a good post indeed. I appreciate your concern on this thread 'Satan'. But why don't you share your thought on 'preexistence' ?Love to youAdam

Here is another good article on “One God and One Lord” for all of you.http://www.northpark.edu/sem/exauditu/papers/wright.htmlThanksAdam

Come on brother T8, you are skipping my question, you say that 'word' is devine and there is no need to personalise it at the same time you say 'word' is the Christ that was preexisting with the Father as a separate person from Father. Is it not Trinity or Arianism who believe in literal preexistence of Jesus prior to his birth ? Of course you are…[Read more]

So God was speaking to another person who is the 'word' ?If so you are making two Gods who created heavens and earth as per Jn 1:1 which says “the word was God'. Sorry to counter your thoughts my brotherAdam

Yea, you are right my brother T8,Today I also got it as much faster as par with other threads, may be 1200 is ideal count.May God continue to bless you for promoting healthy debate on Biblical misconceptions.ThanksAdam

I am not labelling specific persons but I am addressing their misconceptions.Sorry if I have offended youAdam

One more thing brother Nick, I am not supporting fully what N.T. Wright has wirtten there but I wanted you to see God and Jesus from different perspectives.ThanksAdam

Jesus is the perfect dwelling for the true God, he is not a so-called god as you think that is what you and others make him. He is the savior of the world because God was fully in Jesus and reconcilled the whole world to Himself. Jesus is called as the 'word of God' not that he himself is that 'word' it is God's expression. John heard of the 'word…[Read more]

But they are drawn from the same scriptures by human interpretations of them.

Is it offending you if he revealed God fully on this earth as the 'word' which was called God dwelled in him and is permanently living in him now, which also made him 'son of God' ?

This is the definition of Polytheism ;”Polytheism is belief in or worship of multiple gods (usually assembled in a pantheon) together with associated mythology and rituals”. So you think I am having head knowledge, no problem my God knows me very well I don't need any human sympathy for not accepting any Polytheim or Arianism or Mormonism or…[Read more]

Please don't bring the same topic again and again it proves nothing to me it is only for convincing the Pagans who believe in so called gods but for us there is only one God. I don't want any discussion on this brother. If you want want you can argue on the title of the thread otherwise I am stopping here. ThanksAdam

Yes he is one and also called son of God; does that make Him God or does that spoil the view of Monotheism ?

Hi all,Here is a wonderful article on 'God and Jesus' by N.T. wright.http://www.ntwrightpage.com/Wright_JIG.htmThanksAdam

Even a belief in existence of more than one God is Polytheism.

Thanks for such understanding, but I am not frightened certainly people are confusing others with those words saying there are also other gods. In fact Paul meant those words for the weak people who don't have this understanding on Monotheism saying “there is no God but One” who is the Father.I think we better leave this deviation here from the…[Read more]

Those gods are 'so called gods' or false gods as told by St Paul I don't require them when I talk about the True God of the Bible. Please see Paul's words in 1 Cor 8:3 But if one loves God, one is known by him. 4 So about the eating of meat sacrificed to idols: we know that “there is no idol in the world,” and that “there is no God but one.” 5…[Read more]

Is it stumbling you brother because of its rawness of truth ?

So you cleverly want to skip bASICS BECAUSE THEY OFFEND YOU BROTHER ?hERE IS THE VERSE for Jesus words saying God is only one not two, three or many;Jn 5:44 “How can you believe, when you receive glory from one another and do not seek the glory that comes from the only God? Jn 17:3 “And this is eternal life, that they know you the only true God,…[Read more]
