Quote (terraricca @ Oct. 20 2013,14:39)i VOTED “NO” because it is not the language that is the purpose of the way to be saved,but it is the true search of the kingdom and its righteousness that is the way to be saved ,and to love God as he as loved us ,this is a matter of the heart not of a understanding of a language ,the Jews knew all about the…[Read more]

I voted yes because we are to test all things according to the Word of God which God has had certain men write down as inspired by the Holy Spirit. So much of the dispute on here is about what the scriptures actually teach. How do you test the opinion of others if you are ignorant of the nuances of the original inspired scriptures? We are not to…[Read more]

Hi Bo, I have been rather sporadic at posting…sorry. I have had some changes in my commitments and routine.God DID intend Jesus to suffer and die to conquer death, so your point is moot.

Mike,In the verse that you mentioned, if 'worship' is intended to be given to Jesus by the angels, would the Greek word be written just like it is?

I've already painstakingly explained why your conclusions are wrong, Kathi.  So now all I need to do is say “wrong” each time you claim nonsense like that.Quote (Lightenup @ Aug. 21 2013,20:40)Why, I already showed you…[Read more]

Hi Bo,Quote Think about what you are saying, even if you were right, how would it be beautiful or powerful to be killed but not even really be ableto stay dead?Wouldn't you consider it supernatural if someone that you knew and that had died and was buried, suddenly appeared days later and made you breakfast and ate with you? Or would that be…[Read more]

Pierre,If I showed you a verse where the angels are told to worship Jesus, would you think that it would be wrong for you to worship Jesus?

I haven't seen mighty-ness but you wrote it as what you believe, Pierre. Surely you can consider someone called Jehovah of hosts and Jehovah our righteousness as someone who has Jehovah-ness if you can understand 'mighty ness.'

You deny the Jehovah-ness of Jesus, Pierre, do you not?

Be my guest to read the context, Pierre. Nothing but your own misunderstanding stands in your way. The context is there to back up the deity of Christ.

You are right Pierre, I would not use deceit to try to convince you of anything.

Well, Pierre, you can try to continue to deny the deity of Christ and that salvation is a free gift, not something you earn. However, don't call what you believe as truth.

Too bad Pierre that you can't see what I see and the Christian commentators see as well as the majority that call themselves Christians (you know, those who believe in the deity of Christ).Peter calls Jesus “our God and Savior, Jesus Christ” in 2 Peter 1:1Peter identifies Jehovah of hosts from Isaiah 8 as Jesus in 1 Peter 2 and 3.Jesus is Jehovah…[Read more]

Emmanuel…”God with us”You miss the beauty of Jehovah of hosts of Isaiah 8 becoming flesh-Emmanuel…BECOMING lower than the angels and completely relying on Jehovah, His Father in heaven.It is the gospel that you are not receiving.

Pierre,You are still denying the special God unity of Father and Son…God (in the fullest sense) = Our Father and Lord Jesus Christ together with their Spirit1 John 2:22Who is the liar but the one who denies that Jesus is the Christ? This is the antichrist, the one who denies the Father and the Son.

Bo,Please don't pretend that the word “God” has only one meaning and is just a proper name. The word “God” can refer to a hunk of wood by some, a mythological figure by others, even a person that people worship or a thing that a person worships. Entertainment, sports, materialistic things…all of these types of things can be a 'God/Gods' to…[Read more]
