Mankind was made in the image of God…fact. That happened and the results continue. All of mankind before and after the fall were made in the image of God at the time He first created them male and female. People treat each other poorly when they forget that the person they are treating poorly was not also made in the image of God.…[Read more]

@kerwin
What is your scripture that tells you that man stopped being the image of God when sin entered the man?

@NickHassan
No.

Beautifully sung from their heart. Thanks for sharing, miia.

Here it is from Carrie Underwood and Vince Gill. I will never get tired of hearing this sung!

Is the Father, Son and Holy Spirit worthy of all praise, honor and glory above all, in your opinion and do you love them with your whole heart, soul, and mind?

@NickHassan

We are persons made in His image.

For starters…John 5:19
Then answered Jesus and said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, The Son can do nothing of himself, but what he seeth the Father do: for what things soever he doeth, these also doeth the Son likewise.

No, Nick…A divine person is spirit.

Hi Nick,
God is a person who is spirit.

@GeneBalthrop
Thank you for your patience.
you said:

Are YOU EVEN reading what i wrote? , i have acknowledged that GOD said, this is my beloved son hear you him. How much clearer can i get?

Yes, I am reading what you wrote and have concluded that you still do not know what the Father said to Jesus when He was baptized. He did not say “This is…[Read more]

Yes, perspective does spring forth our understanding of things, that is called our ‘bias.’ Do you believe that there are many wrong perspectives here on HN and that you have the right perspective?

@kerwin
you said:

Interpreting it to mean beginning as in a sense of time is incorrect. Preeminent, chief, or both would be correct.

Have you considered that the ‘beginning’ is possibly referencing a position

that existed before the creation of God

and the One that existed in that position.

Do you see how the ‘beginning’ could be a position…[Read more]

@carmel
Who/what is the ‘word’ that became flesh in John 1?

@kerwin
So, do you believe in the pre-existence of the ‘person’ of Jesus since you believe that He is the Spirit of God who existed eternally?

@kerwin
Do you think that this verse is translated correctly with using ‘beginning?’ Do you think that should be ‘chief’ or ‘preeminent?’

I am the Alpha and the Omega, the first and the last, the beginning and the end.

Hi @kerwin

I apologize for mistakenly saying that ‘chief’ is an acceptable translation. I thought that I had remembered it being among the possibilities but no, if it meant ‘chief’ it would be a different Greek word with the Strong’s number 747 which is a masculine noun. The arche’ in Rev 3:14 is a feminine noun and Strong’s number 746. These are…[Read more]
