you said:
You have been proven scripturally wrong Lightenup.
And where was that which you have proven anything to me? You have only offered your own understanding of some verses. Do you call that proof? Can you give me any early church father’s agreement with you at all on this ‘God’s woman’ heresy that you insist on?
If you are so…[Read more]

Sad that you do not want to understand what ‘eternally begotten’ means but you just want to ‘slam’ me for using ‘higher education that puffs one up’ when I expose your lack of understanding to one of the very things you seem to have devoted your website to discredit. I thought a man once corrected would accept correction with humility and…[Read more]Lightenup replied to the topic The "Bride of Christ" is not the Church in the forum Scriptural Teachings 11 years, 5 months ago

you said:You believe in the son always proceeding from the Father. That is the man-made doctrine of the eternal generation of the son.
I don’t believe you understand the term ‘eternally begotten’ as written in a form of the Nicene Creed. When the Father says about the Son, “Today, I have begotten you” in Heb. 11, that word ‘begotten’ is…[Read more]

Jesus doesn’t marry His own body. His bride is a body of believers with Christ as the head. Like a man who is head of his wife.
Don’t make it so difficult. A man doesn’t marry his own body but is head of his wife and the two become one flesh.

God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change,
The courage to change the things I can,
And the wisdom to know the difference.
Good prayer. I have accepted that it is not I that can change you. My hope is to challenge the reader from buying into your small view of Christ.

you say this but you still don’t know the Son:eternal life is to know the only true God and his son
If you knew the Son, you would know that eternal life is to know two who are called theos in scripture, in this particular verse in John 17, one is referred to as the only true theos, the Father and the other theos is referred to as Jesus…[Read more]

Yes, several.

And WHERE did I ever use this term “eternally generated?”
So far, you are not very impressive in your comprehension, claiming that I use terms like eternally generated is a perfect example. It is no wonder you are so messed up in your doctrine considering you poor comprehension of the written word.Lightenup replied to the topic The "Bride of Christ" is not the Church in the forum Scriptural Teachings 11 years, 5 months ago

Perfection with perfection is God with God in John 1:1. Some make it as Perfection with less than perfection thus missing truth and denying the Son who would be the same type as His Father, imo.

One way that people deny the Son is by saying that He is NOT the same type of being as the Father-an eternal being. A true offspring is the same type of being as their father…always.

Lightenup.
What do you call a body of believers?
Is it not a church?
Is Chist not the corner stone?
So who is his bride? I thought you have understood.
I was wrong.
