    Terrarica,

    There is this as well.

    Luke 4:18-20English Standard Version (ESV)

    18
    “The Spirit of the Lord is upon me,
    because he has anointed me
    to proclaim good news to the poor.
    He has sent me to proclaim liberty to the captives
    and recovering of sight to the blind,
    to set at liberty those who are oppressed,

    Nick,

    I believe I said that the Spiritual Rock is the word of God since that is what the children of Israel put their faith in but that word came from Moses as he was carried along by the Spirit of God, which is also known as the Spirit of Christ. Moses was anointed as the mediator of the old covenant.

    Terrarica,

    Faith in the written word works as well since without faith you cannot truly partake of the Word.

    Terrarica,

    You are correct that the Sabbath of Christ is 24/7.

    Christ came to save his people from their sins (Matthew 1:21) not from the Law (Matthew 5:18).

    Terraricca,

    Have you looked up what the gospel is in Scripture?

    Be careful not to add or subtract from it.

    Terrarica and t8,

    Jesus is well known for his metaphysical turn of speech. He even told his student-adherents why he chose to speak that way.

    John 6:38-40
    For I have come down from heaven, not to do my own will, but the will of him who sent me; and this is the will of him who sent me, that I should lose nothing of all that he has given me, but…

    I believe the rock is the word of God in that case though the Spirit of God imparts that word.

    God himself does not look at you but his angels are reporting you to him ,

    God is all seeing and all knowing but his angels do return to the center of his power and make reports on what they observe. God already knew the answer to the question he asked Satan but he tested Satan’s heart by asking it. He also set in motion Satan’s…[Read more]

    I can make that point faster than an hour and thirty-two minutes. I would not teach the Jews not to set aside Saturday as their Holy Day because that is a Jewish Tradition given to the children of Israel as a gift and God has not taken back his gift. It was never a gift to the Gentiles unless they lived in Jewish households.

    That is all…[Read more]

    There is only one way to God and that is through the human mediator Jesus Christ. The mediatior is not God, an angel, or anything else but a human being.

    AndrewAD,

    He was and is now God from God and light from light.

    I may have misunderstood these words.

    The light from light can also be applied to the student adherents of Christ. It has nothing to do with being God though it does have something to do with the gospel of Christ since John the Baptist was not the light of the world.

    Terrarica,

    That is only part of the message. You have to believe in both God and Jesus Christ or the rest is useless.

    You must make Jesus your Lord, which is to say obey him in all ways.
    You must also believe that he speaks the truth and will honer each and every one of his promises.

    Without that you cannot expect anything from God.

    There…[Read more]

    God does not live personally in anyone but his laws/wisdom/will/holiness/righteousness/truth/ …. does

    I missed these words until I reread your post.

    The same Spirit he walks according to lives in those that believe as a teacher.

    Danny Dabbs,

    The context is Jesus speaking to Nicodemus at a time before he physically ascended to heaven. That context rules out a physical ascension and so leaves a Spiritual ascension. Jesus states he is in his Father and our Father, whom he calls God, and the Father of us all is in him. God is in heaven so in order for Jesus to be in him…[Read more]
