Terraricca,

The word ‘his’ never means ‘is’ in the English language. When the wise man is shown his error, he no longer continues in his error. When a fool is shown his error, he foolishly continues making his error and even arrogantly so.  You choose. If you continue in your error, sadly the love of truth is not in you or your memory is fading.

I am wondering what the name of the church is that you are apart of, do you have a name for it? Is there a creed for that church?

@Grasshopper
Denominations are going to be dispelled when the truth is clear but until then, there are going to be different understandings on particular doctrines such as baptism. Is baptism for the believer of for the believer and their infants, for example. Sometimes we just aren’t sure on the specifics. All that will be cleared up in time. Let…[Read more]

I have asked you this more than once in another thread but you do not seem to comprehend it. I ask again…would you like to have a closed discussion with me about my beliefs regarding these spiritual matters? I think that having one thread with responses to your questions in it, would be more fruitful than having them interspersed…[Read more]

@terrarica

you said:

who his the creator master God ,who his the life giver GOD the father ,who run all of creation ?

Your English is not correct and proper English words and punctuation are needed to convey your question more clearly. If you are interested in truth, show us by using English words truthfully. The word ‘his’ never means ‘is’ in…[Read more]

Anastas, maturity is a virtue but it takes time. How old are you anyway and how long have you felt like you have walked with the Lord?

God is not defined by whether or not He is called God by someone. God is a living perfect sentient being that has existed before anything else. He doesn’t need to have subjects to be the true God. Even a false god…[Read more]

@t8
You missed my point…the Son is the power of God, not overpowered by God. I am using different words to help you get what I meant when I answered your question. You made the wrong conclusion by concluding that because I said the Son was not the power over God then He was the power less than God and that is NOT the correct conclusion. He is…[Read more]

terraricca,
Jesus is given the task because HE is the Father’s power to carry out the task. He always acts according to the Father’s will and the Father always carries out His will through His power-His own Son.

The Father gives the vision, the Son carries it out. This is interdependence. The Father does not work apart from the Son, but instead,…[Read more]

Hi Gene,
I realize that you want to have a discussion in general regarding the topic of this thread. What I am asking is if you would be interested in a closed discussion between you and me only. Would you like to do that? If so, I will start that and give you a link to it.

Gene
Jesus IS the image of the invisible God. I didn’t have to invent Him as an image of God. Your problem is with scripture, not with me.

Also, I believe that God, the Son, did become man so all your caring on about me not believing that He is a man is without merit. So, from now on, you cannot say that I don’t believe that Jesus became a man.…[Read more]

terarricca says:

BUT THE SON CANNOT BE MORE POWERFUL THAN HIS OWN FATHER ,THIS IS A FACT

What you miss is this:
The Son IS the power OF the Father. It is not a question of ‘if’ He is more powerful than the Father.

Bring on your first question, not all at once. We will start there, terraricca.

@t8
If there is an always existent Father, then an always existent Son is implied. The two are interdependent.

You seem to think that the Father is and was God apart from the Son, I do not agree. I believe that the Father as God of gods is dependent on the existence of the Son and the Son as Lord of lords is dependent on the existence of the…[Read more]

This is why we say you cannot be ‘us’ even by your own admission.

You preach another gospel.

Glad you realize that and see a distinction.

I would rather be with the ‘us’ that has both, the ‘God of gods’ and the ‘Lord of lords’, the one and mighty God-Jehovah who IS both.

@t8
you said:

So if Jesus is God because he has power over us, then does Jesus have power over God? You clearly said no. Jesus is not the one true God by your own admission. Rather, he is in submission to God.

Where was it that you asked me if Jesus had power ‘over God’ and where was it that I said that Jesus didn’t have power over God…[Read more]

Nick,
you asked:

If scripture is divine communication can we improve on it?

We are not to add to the truth of scripture but it is fruitful to explain it. Jesus did many times.
