Mike,Quote There is no “paradox” here, Kerwin.  Could it be that Jesus was BEFORE David in one respect, yet AFTER David in another?  If not, then show me the SCRIPTURE that explains to us that this is impossibility. You hold that Jesus is basically his own ancestor.  That is a paradox just like Jesus coming to exist twice is also a paradox.  T…[Read more]

Mike,Quote Scripture teaches the pre-existence of Jesus in MANY places, Kerwin. Scripture does not teach what you hold to; it does teach that the Spirit of through which God lives; came down and made a home in Jesus.  It teaches us that same Spirit both preexists Jesus and reveals the Word of God, as well as the Light therein.Quote No Kerwin.…[Read more]

Gene,Jesus as well as God live in those that believe via the holy spirit while those that believe live in both Jesus and God by the same spirit.Satan, or one of his servants, does the same thing, except he dwells by an evil spirit, a spirit short of God's glory.  Drive the unclean spirit out and you drive the demon out.Satan or one of his demons…[Read more]

Pierre,You claim Jesus is the Word and yet Jesus declares God(who is called the Word in John 1:1) dwells in him and speaks his words; even as it is written:John 14:10King James Version (KJV) 10Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? the words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself: but the Father that dwelleth in me,…[Read more]

Nick,Acts 18 King James Version (KJV)24And a certain Jew named Apollos, born at Alexandria, an eloquent man, and mighty in the scriptures, came to Ephesus. 25This man was instructed in the way of the Lord; and being fervent in the spirit, he spake and taught diligently the things of the Lord, knowing only the baptism of John. Matthew 3:11King…[Read more]

Ed;You wrote:Quote Hi Kerwin,Nathan was born before the curse was given to David,thus Jesus lineage is not of the curse of David's sin. David was dead and the curse was given unto the line of Solomon.  Nathan was sired by David, a brother of Solomon, and not a descendant of Solomon; so the curse did not fall on him; even as you wrote.

Quote (Nick Hassan @ April 27 2012,12:19)Hi, Apollos was reborn of the Spirit and full of enthusiasm. But he was only useful to God when he accepted correction.Nick,Apollo had not yet received the new man; as it does not come with John's baptism; since it is not of power.

Mike,Quote YES Kerwin! I get it! Jesus was conceived AS A HUMAN BEING in Mary. But there is NOTHING in that statement that says he couldn't have existed in the form of God BEFORE he was conceived AS A HUMAN BEING in the womb of Mary. In fact, there are scriptures that say he DID! Scripture does not say that Jesus existed as an angel prior to…[Read more]

Quote (Nick Hassan @ April 27 2012,08:06)Hi MB,John 14:17Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you.Nick and Mike,”for he dwelleth with you” is present tense”shall be in you” is future tense.

Mike,Scripture teaches you Jesus was conceived and therefore did not preexist. You do not believe it so why would you believe anyone else?Jesus had glory with God before the world began; he did not have it with himself as he was not there and had not yet sacrificed himself, been resurrected, and ascended to mediate the new covenant from his throne.

Nick,According to Scripture you do miraculously receive the new man that loves as God loves when immersed in Jesus. After that you either put on the new man dressed in white or the old man dressed in filthy rags. You can only put on the new man by faith. By his actions Simon Magus revealed he lacked faith and so was like an unwise virgin.
