You’re welcome.

You said:

My understanding is that you see Jesus as existing as the same kind of being that our heavenly Father is, and that he is His only Son in that manner. You believe the angels (Sons of God) were created after Jesus.

That is correct, Jodi. I also believe that the Son, according to the flesh, did not exist until the…[Read more]

Jodi, there is no spirit of Christ without Christ.
The Spirit of Christ was in the prophets of old (1 Peter 1:11).
So again it is very clear that there is no spirit of Christ without Christ.

God bless,

Hi Danny,

They think the “spirit of Christ” is the “spirit of God” instead of Jesus’s spirit.
It is sad to see people stray so far…[Read more]

Hi Jodi,

We read that the Spirit of Christ was in the prophets of old (1 Peter 1:11).
This proves that Christ existed at that time, prior to His human existence.

@Jodi

Hi Jodi, thanks for your reply.
Well the Bible clearly says that we have the spirit of Jesus Christ.
Not just the spirit of God the Father.
Galatians 4:6 “Because you are sons, God has sent the Spirit of His Son into our hearts, crying out, “Abba! Father!”
As a matter of fact, we have BOTH the spirit of the Father and of His Son.
John 14:…[Read more]

If Jesus Christ is just a man, why did Paul write, “I am crucified with Christ, nevertheless I live; yet not I, BUT CHRIST LIVES IN ME (Gal. 2:20)?”
How can a mere man live in Paul and the rest of the New Testament believers all at once without also being God?

@Jodi

Hi Jodi, Who came in the flesh?

words or Jesus Christ?

Jesus came in the flesh and “is” still coming in the flesh today. Christ in you the hope of glory (Col 1:27).

1 John 4:2 By this you know the Spirit of God: every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is from God;

John uses the perfect tense here in Greek,…[Read more]

Hi Jodi, The Word in John 1 is Jesus Christ.

“The Word became flesh, and lived among us. We saw his glory, such glory as of the one and only Son of the Father, full of grace and truth.” John 1:14

Hi LU,

YOU:

@Jodi,

Thanks for your response. I have got to give you credit for trying but at the same time missing why Jesus is in the lineage of Abraham to Joseph (according to the flesh). It was because Jesus was born of Joseph’s wife, Mary.

ME: Matthew directly goes against your position above, he gives us the BOOK of the G…[Read more]

@Jodi,

If Joseph was not married to Mary, Jesus’ mother, Jesus would not be in Joseph’s lineage.

Matthew has a pattern…[Read more]

@Jodi,

Thank you for your response.

Do you realize that pronouns in Greek are written in a way to show if they refer to a female or a male? That word “whom” refers to a female, so, it does not refer to Joseph, it refers to Mary. See the “RelPro-GFS” under “whom” below in Matthew 1:16? That “F” stands for “female.” If it meant Joseph, it would be…[Read more]

@Jodi

You asked:

I would like people to explain their understanding to, “this day I have begotten thee”.

“Thou art my Son, this day I have begotten thee”

Also, can you agree that the Son is called God’s Son because God had begotten him?

The Son is not called God’s Son because God had begotten him (begotten from the dead in regards to the v…[Read more]
