you said:

Wisdom, logos, life, love, charity, mercy, truth, and light are attributes of God. Sometimes they are spoken of in a feminine sense when referring to God’s own attributes.

So when the God of the living begat Wisdom, he became the workMAN at God’s side.

First off, your conclusion about the reason things like wisdom and life are fem…[Read more]

you said:

So the point is yes, God became a Father.

He “became” a father to the Son of Man who had a beginning in Mary. He always was a father to the divine Son before the cosmos.

John 1
1In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2He was in the beginning with God. 3All things came into being through Him, and apart from Him nothing came into being that has come into being. 4In Him was life, and the life was the Light of men. 5The Light shines in the darkness, and the…[Read more]

As you admit, Jesus is a theos and God the Father begat Him. Why do you deny that God the Father is the Father of the theos who is the Son?

It is rather simple to accept that the one who beget a son is the father of what that son is.

To know who Jesus is seems to be essential to having eternal life. I’m trying to help you know Him. Since…[Read more]

“YOU ARE MY SON, TODAY I HAVE BEGOTTEN YOU”?
As we have gone over and over, a begettel of a son does not imply the beginning of an existence of a son. A begettal can simply mean ‘to bring forth’ as in birth. Even you existed as a living being before you were begotten from your mother.

And again, “I WILL BE A FATHER TO HIM AND HE SHALL BE A…[Read more]

you said:

God is the only one in existence who has always existed. All life, spirit, and light comes from him originally. Even the son owes his life to God.

The Father owes His existence to the Son, the Son owes His existence to the Father.

A father without an offspring is not yet a true father. You believe that God always existed but you…[Read more]

You are welcome. Here is the question that I asked on the previous page:

Who is identified as THE Eternal Life in 1 John 1?

1 John 1
1That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we looked upon and have touched with our hands, concerning the word of life— 2the life was made manifest, and w…[Read more]

Rev 12 was a symbolic vision of an upcoming event. Why do you think it is speaking about a past event, prior to creation?

Rev 1:1 The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave unto him, to shew unto his servants things which must shortly come to pass; and he sent and signified it by his angel unto his servant John:

Check the last post on the page before this for a question that I would like you to answer. Thanks.

you said:

There was no church before creation, yet Gods woman is in Him.

Please answer.

Please answer WHAT?

@Wakeup
you asked who the ‘her’ is:

Malachi 3:17 And they shall be mine, saith the LORD of hosts, in that day when I make up my jewels; and I will spare them, as a man spareth his own son that serveth him.

Isaiah 66:12 For thus saith the LORD, Behold, I will extend peace to Her like a river, and the glory of the Gentiles like a flowing stream:…

Funny how you complain of there being many different doctrines in the many different denominations yet, you at the same time add your own doctrine, increasing the division. Actually, the Church being the bride of Christ is agreed upon throughout the church. There is unity there where you seek to divide. If I use another’s words as support…[Read more]

Word of Melito of Sardis:

We are not those who pay homage to stones, that are without sensation; but of the only God, who is before all and over all, and, moreover, we are worshippers of His Christ, who is veritably God the Word existing before all time.

you said:

Clearly you do not believe his words LU. You deny these words of eternal life.

Actually, I said that I agree with the words. You just misunderstand that Jesus is an always existent offspring part of the one true God who the Holy Spirit inspired the writers to call Him not only Son, but also God, Jehovah, the Eternal Life and Lord of all.

@t8

you said:

You’re barking up the wrong tree. The beginning is a starting point and no matter when you obtain eternal life, it doesn’t make you God or eternally generated in the Trinity sense.

Correct, someone who obtains eternal life could not be God and must be a creature, no matter when they obtained it. Let me ask you this:

Do you now think that YOU too were the eternal life that was with the Father from the beginning? I don’t think so. Only the living Word (Jesus) was the eternal life which WAS WITH the Father. Sorry to disappoint you.
