All,1 John 4:2-3 says:”By this you know the Spirit of God: Every Spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come 'in the Flesh' is of God,And every spirit that does not confess that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is not of God. And is the spirit of the Anti-Christ…”To 'come in the flesh' excludes the possibility of a Divine nature…[Read more]

Logic,My post above, thus dovetails in with Nicks.Jesus was then reborn, brought back to life, by means of the Holy Spirit of God making Him 'pre-eminent' in being the 'First' to be reborn by the Holy Spirit alone, and the 'Last' (the Only…) also, the 'Beginning' and the 'End'.

Hi Logic,For Jesus to atone for the sin of Adan he had to be a FULLY sinless man.Jesus ALWAYS claimed that the miracles he performed, the Forgiveness of Sin and the Words that he spoke were the all FROM his Father, God Almighty, Jehovah God, YHWH, the one True God, who gave him the Power and Authority.Jesus walked on the water – was that because…[Read more]

correction: I meant that the capitalised letter(s) in the 'Word' indicates a personification.

Gene,I have only just started reading this topic.Can you explain to me what you mean by 'the Intellect of God'?At this time I agree with WJ that the Holy Spirit is not the WORD of God.The capitals make it a personification, so we know that we are talking about a person, and that can only mean that the 'Word' was Jesus (to be).The Holy Spirit,…[Read more]

The Witness to your faith in God is God Himself, Jesus Christ and your deeds (Works).Only an earth-bound one needs to display their faith through the visiophysical.It seems that the need to 'see and touch' in order to believe is not confined to Thomas, alone!

Gene,Where?(My thoughts…)From going about converting others from their pagan religions.Because the pagans already believed in multiple gods it was easier to convert others by allowing them to continue believing that anyone who came from, or was associated with, heaven, was a god.Possibly, these were 2nd generation apostles who strayed from the…[Read more]

All,Isn't the Cross a Roman torture instrument?Isn't Rome (or the Romans) the 'abomination, standing where it should not'?Wasn't the Catholic Church founded in Rome?Why would any right minded Christian want to wear the symbol of Christ's torture, a symbol of the very enemy of Christ, as a symbol of their faith?Surely, it is the overcoming of Death…[Read more]

Kathi,I forgot to mention…There is another word that describes the acts performed to Jesus, and others. That word is 'Obeisance' and is akin to the physical acts of worship but can be applied to anyone, particularly one of great importance: a King, a Judge, a 'Mighty One', a Heroic one, a Saviour, and so on.Why did the Scripture translaters…[Read more]

Hi all,The first thing to do here is to define 'Worship'.Kathi may well be right that she does what she does to both God and Christ, to both the Father and the Son BUT she uses the word 'Worship', not understanding what it is, re-defining the word in indifference to the scripture that says 'lean not on thine own understanding'.Kathi, your…[Read more]

TT,This morning the Holy Spirit told me not to contend with you because you are not assailable.Are you happy with that?TT, you are a God!Oh, but not 'The God'!So, I wonder whst the Holy Spirit was really saying about you then?

TT, You are an amazing individual. I think that you search out ways to make others deride you and that way you feel that people hate you, and if people hate you then you must be doing the work of God.I'm sorry to disappoint you but that's not how things work.You first need to be acknowledging Jesus as the Son of God, not God Himself. It's quite…[Read more]

TT,What are you waffling on about a new song and the lamb that means I said something wrong?I have no idea what you are talking about except I know it will be a 'misunderstanding' on your part, again!

TT,The issue of God taking back the kingdom is moot because Jesus never fails in his task.The point was that the option was there. Did you read what Haman did when he was 'in place of the king' in the book of Esther.TheScriptures are not written as just amusing stories. They fulfill a purpose and reflect God's purpose.Haman abused his position and…[Read more]

TT,The post wasn't addressed to you.I made a mistake and put TT instead of JW. I added a correction in my following post.

Mike,WJ's conundrum is on a conundrum to the uninitiated and simple minded…no pointers to anyone!Noone is called 'God' meaning 'YHWH' except YHWH.Noone is called 'LORD' except 'YHWH' God.The word 'GOD' in any capital case is a TITLE, not a NAME that means 'the principal object/entity of worship, or one to whom supreme power and authority is…[Read more]

EDJ,Thanks for the heads-up.Mike,Jesus does indeed sit in the throne of God (but that doesn't make Him God – One can't 'become' God! and God says 'beside me there is No GOD')However, Jesus has his own throne and it is His throne that the elected ones occupy and rule with Him over His own Kingdom after He hands back God's Kingdom (Which is the…[Read more]

Mike,Right on again.Also, Romans 2:16 says that God judges THROUGH Jesus Christ.It is so true (indesputable) what the scriptures says:Acts 28:26-27 '…Hearing you will hear, and shall not understand; and seeing you will see, and not perceive;…lest they should see with their eyes and hear with their ears; lest they should understand with their…[Read more]

WJ,To answer (!!!) your last question to me 'what rules…'?The ones that are requested explicitly.The same ones that you use to 'demand' a response from me and others…a reasonable one.And, again, you accuse me of NOT answering your posts questions to me.I challenge you to find a question that you have posted to me that I have NOT responded…[Read more]

I'm confused: Is Georg Male or Female?
