To rephrase the question that I ask,
Why would God forgive all the world’s sins through His Son Jesus Christ?
Jodi started the topic Forgiven through Christ in the forum Truth or Tradition 3 years, 8 months ago
Hell All,
Popular belief amongst Christians is that we are saved through God sending His Son to earth to be temporarily made into an inferior being, a man, where we are then freed from sin and the penalty thereof of death by his death. One just has to repent of their sins and believe in this and they are rewarded with eternal life.

Hi Mike,
Thank you! What you said makes sense, I see it and agree with you that they are actually both referring to the Father.

Hi Danny,
The TRUTH is the SUM of scripture, where I apply scripture with scripture.
ME : “Jesus was born again at the river Jordon as an only begotten of the Spirit without measure”
Why don’t you discuss the scriptures that I gave that together support my statement above and tell me specifically how it is you think I am wrong?

Hi Berean,
YOU:
IN JESUS MAN, THERE WAS THE FULLNESS OF DIVINITY AND ALSO THE FULLNESS OF THE HOLY SPIRIT. THE HOLY SPIRIT SUPPORTED HIS HUMAN NATURE AS HE DOES FOR ALL OF HIS BORN AGAINST CHILDREN

Gene and I do not deny, ” For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily.”

Good Morning LU,
You had brought up a passage from Hebrews 1, where you have applied the wrong person to the text.
Hebrews 1:10 And, Thou, Lord, in the beginning hast laid the foundation of the earth; and the heavens are the works of thine hands: 11 They shall perish; but thou remainest; and they all shall wax old as doth a garment; 12 And as…[Read more]

Hi Gene,
It is truly remarkable isn’t it, how many scriptures time and time again are treated as if they don’t exist and thus they then are never applied directly where they need to be in order for someone to have the actual truth.

Hi LU,
I read your opening and ending statements with the below passage you gave,
John 12: 36…These things Jesus proclaimed, and He went away and hid Himself from them. 37But though He had performed so many signs in their sight, they still were not believing in Him. 38This happened so that the word of Isaiah the prophet which he spoke would b…[Read more]

Yes, Isaiah in chapter 45, from the very first verse is speaking about the Messiah Cyrus.
