Quote (WorshippingJesus @ Dec. 22 2008,12:33)Quote (meerkat @ Dec. 23 2008,07:05)WJ Just thinking here……….. I thought our opponent is our carnal flesh – God created all the angels, to do his bidding – us, to do his bidding. The adversary was created to be our adversary, just because we have an adversary does not mean that God has an…[Read more]

Quote (Nick Hassan @ Dec. 22 2008,15:02)Hi Jodi, So you define what exists and not scripture?We cannot blame Satan for our sin.He is not the cause.Nick your the one who is denying scripture, not me. To be of the adversary is to have in mind the things of men, to think according to the world. To be of the adversary does not say to be influenced by…[Read more]

Quote (Not3in1 @ Dec. 22 2008,11:43)Quote (Jodi @ Dec. 23 2008,06:00)God is actually neither male or female. The term Father, is YHWH's way of relating to us IN OUR TERMS, so we can understand what sort of relationship YHWH desires to have with us.I confess, this actually makes me have a lump in the back of my throat…..God set up rules for our…[Read more]

James 3:14 But if you have bitter envy and self-seeking in your hearts, do not boast and lie against the truth. 15 this wisdom is not descending from above, but earthly, physical, demon-like, 16 for where zeal and rivalry , there is insurrection and every evil matter;It is a pagan superstitious idea that there are 'beings' not of the earth's…[Read more]

WJ, if God didn't TRUST the adversary in Job, then He wouldn't have allowed him to touch him at all. Did the adversary ever once go beyond that which God told him to do?God wasn't trying to prove to the adversary anything! You need to read the book IN CONTEXT, which is FROM the perspective of a human being. The book of Job should be read and…[Read more]

Quote (Nick Hassan @ Dec. 22 2008,10:47)Hi Jodi, Really? Is that how you see it? Jesus seemed to have a different view and we should believe scripture. Do you believe it is true?Nick what proof do you have that the adversary in Job, is the same adversaries as given in the NT, that are against the ways of God. Here we have adversaries to man that…[Read more]

Hi Mandy, YHWH created man in his own image, MALE AND FEMALE. Genesis 1:27YHWH is not a male, you are thinking of God being the Father of Jesus in human terms, and not according to how our Creator has chosen to relate to us.

Quote (Not3in1 @ Dec. 22 2008,00:46)Jodi,OK, it's after midnight, but I'll take a stab at some of these things that you presented.Quote This is saying that Jesus had to be just like us in order to pay for our sins. This is why to say that Jesus was half God, destroys our salvation, because otherwise he could not pay for our sins.I've also heard it…[Read more]

Quote (Nick Hassan @ Dec. 22 2008,10:09)Hi Jodi, Should we add our ideas to scripture?Satan has always tested men according to the will of God. Lk2230That ye may eat and drink at my table in my kingdom, and sit on thrones judging the twelve tribes of Israel. 31And the Lord said, Simon, Simon, behold, Satan hath desired to have you, that he may…[Read more]

Hi Mandy,I just read your first point and want to stop you right there with what you said about Trinitarians believing that Jesus had to be God in order for Jesus to pay for our sins. I don't believe this is a matter of opinion but strictly a matter of what the scriptures specifically say-Ephesians 2:14 For He Himself is our peace, who has made…[Read more]

Quote (Nick Hassan @ Dec. 22 2008,09:38)Jodi, Who said Satan lived in heaven?He wandered the earth but met with God and His sonsThe Satan in Job was one of God's messengers. God's messenger in Job was seen as an adversary to MAN, and that is why the author of Job wrote him as such. The messenger in the book of Job WORKED with God on behalf of…[Read more]

Quote (Tiffany @ Dec. 22 2008,09:17)Gen and Jodi! Sorry but I do not agree with you both. The heaven the Bible speaks of is where God's Throne is. Where exactly that is in the Universe I don't know. Has to be not to far of, since the earth is His footstool. Why do you think they were thrown down to earth? It is because of their sins. Satan was…[Read more]

Quote (Not3in1 @ Dec. 22 2008,01:03)Quote (Jodi @ Dec. 22 2008,12:30)Jesus was raised a new man, an immortal man, which destroyed the enmity that was in his flesh, he no longer contains those instincts that draw his flesh to serve his flesh because he is no longer subjected to survival. Jesus has been freed, only life lives in his body, thus his…[Read more]

Quote (Tiffany @ Dec. 22 2008,00:45)Satan is happy when he sees writing what you just did. The biggest lie ever told is that he does not exist. But who tested Jesus then? Lets read: Rev. 12:7-12 And war broke out in heaven , Michael and his angels fought against the dragon and the angels fought.verse 8 But they did not prevail, nor…[Read more]

Thank you Gene and Adam, love to you both, Jodi

Quote (Gene Balthrop @ Dec. 21 2008,15:58)meekat………All these forces come from one source (EVIL SPIRIT) spirit is thought or intellect, When God removes that from the earth then whats left, only Good Spirit or intellect or thought is. even the wild animals natures will be changed when that happening. For the lion will lye down with the lamb,…[Read more]

This is the old serpent, the adversary, the slanderer, the Great dragon, the source of all evil coming from man! The reptilian brain is the dark force that creates sin and sinful men.

Mark 1:3 and he was there in the wilderness forty days, being tempted by the Adversary, and he was with the beasts, and the messengers were ministering to him.James 1:14 but each one is tempted when, by his own evil desire, he is dragged away and enticed.Scripture does not support an evil spirit being that draws us to serve our own flesh. It is by…[Read more]

We need to use our free will and…[Read more]

Hi Mandy, Did you get a chance to read my last post to you, it's on page 116? To me, either Jesus was a man or he wasn't. To say that he was part God is to deny that he came in the flesh. Can't you see that you are directly creating an antichrist figure?Romans 8:3 For what the law was powerless to do in that it was weakened by the sinful nature,…[Read more]
