Hi Danny,

You:

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 gave us His Son, He then had to have a Son to give.
It’s as simple as that!

You guys are against the very heart of the Gospel.

Danny your are missing the context a…[Read more]

Hi Berean,

YOU: THE “BY MYSELF” of Isaiah 44:24 THIS IS ALSO THE DEVINITY OF GOD, WHICH THE SON POSSESSES.

ME:  Scripture absolutely does not make Jesus Christ our ONLY TRUE GOD, that is what you would have to debate if you want to keep asserting that Jesus was our creator.

Jesus Christ, is the Son of the only true God. Jesus Christ is in the f…[Read more]

Hi Berean,

Isaiah indeed prophesied about Christ but you ignore and thus do not apply at all the important truths of the word of God therein. Your doctrine is actually a complete lie going against direct scripture.

Isaiah 45:18 For thus saith the LORD that created the heavens; God himself that formed the earth and made it; he hath established…[Read more]

Hi Berean,

YOU: In thé BIGINNING “the WORD” was not a man but thé SON OF GOD WHO WAS GOD.

ME: I have never said that “the Word” of John 1:1 represents a man. I have posted before giving scripture that “the Word” of John 1:1 represents God’s word of eternal life.

Eternal life is through righteousness and it is God’s Spirit dwelling in the human…[Read more]

Gene your words and encouragement mean so much!

Peace and love to you brother,

Hi Berean,

YOU: I simply don’t believe in your circumvention of holy scripture.
The fact that you turn your neck on the simple statements of John 1 puts a brake on the pursuit of interesting exchanges.

ME: Berean, first of all, don’t pretend that I have not posted in length to the passages you interpret out of context to support your doctrine. W…[Read more]

Berean,

Once again you did not respond at all appropriately to my post.

The entire bible would not read the way it does if your doctrine were true. You treat so much scripture as if it’s dirt, God’s word to be swept and left under a rug. You then stand over the rug and cherry pick scripture. Further you won’t or can’t even attempt to establish…[Read more]

Hi Berean,

A proper response to someone’s post is to actually respond to the specific content within that post. I gave scriptures and then understanding to them, are you able to agree or disagree and in any disagreements can you give explanation?

Biblical fact, Jesus preached prophecy concerning himself, glory given unto the Son of Man and when…[Read more]

Berean, I didn’t see any response to  my post #945008
I have included it below with some additions,
Your doctrine doesn’t add up and I am not seeing explanation from you with scripture, that might provide reconciliation where I could then consider a change to my position.
Matthew 16: 27 For the Son of man shall come in the glory of his Father…[Read more]

Hi DesireTruth,

YOU:

We can continue to debate what we believe is truth and write long explanations trying to prove our side of the “truth”; but the bottom line is what does the OT say about the Messiah; who will he be and what will he do when he arrives, does this match the Messiah of the NT? If you have found a passage to support the NT Mes…[Read more]

Hi DesireTruth,

You asked if blood was required for atonement,

Exodus 30:10 Once a year Aaron shall make atonement on its horns. <span style=”color: #ff0000;”>This annual atonement must be made with the blood of the atoning sin</span> offering for the generations to come. It is most holy to the LORD.”

Leviticus 4:25 Then the priest shall take s…[Read more]

Hi DesireTruth,

YOU: How come man is able to turn from their wickedness in the OT but not in the NT without “help”?

ME: This is just not true, I can’t answer a question that is based on something that is totally false.

YOU: I thought I was created in the image of God and wouldn’t by that very nature have the “ability” to be “righteou…[Read more]

Hi DesireTruth,

I am responding to your last post to me, in at least a few posts.

There needs to be a lot of clarifying going on and much of it seems to be because you fill in holes making assumptions and then ask questions based in part on those assumptions that are all wrong with my belief. Quite a mess is going on here, lol!

I am getting…[Read more]

Thank you Nick and Gene!!

Berean,

Your doctrine doesn’t add up and I am not seeing explanation from you with scripture, that might provide reconciliation where I could then consider a change to my position.

Matthew 16: 27 For the Son of man shall come in the glory of his Father with his angels; and then he shall reward every man according to his works.

Hi DesireTruth,

You: Both Matthew and Luke record, Jesus’ daddy is the spirit; so how is Jesus of the tribe of Judah? Tribal lineage comes from the father. If not conceived of Joseph how is Jesus of the seed of David?

Me: Does Matthew really declare to us that Jesus’s daddy is the spirit? I have argued on this forum that Matthew, actually in f…[Read more]

Hi Berean,

First off, Isaiah 11:1 A shoot will come up from the stump of Jesse; from his roots a Branch will bear fruit. 2 The Spirit of the LORD will rest on him— the Spirit of wisdom and of understanding, the Spirit of counsel and of might, the Spirit of the knowledge and fear of the LORD— 3 and he will delight in the fear of the LORD. He wil…[Read more]

Hi Berean,

Why does it say below, “before his coming”?

Acts 13: 22 And when he had removed him, he raised up unto them David to be their king; to whom also he gave testimony, and said, I have found David the son of Jesse, a man after mine own heart, which shall fulfil all my will. 23 Of this man’s seed hath God according to his promise raised…[Read more]
