Bo, No one has seen Jehovah in His fullest form. Moses spoke with God face to face and he saw the backside of God. Stephen saw Jesus standing at the right hand of God.Also, the word God and the word Lord are both words used to identify Jehovah as well as gods and lords who are not Jehovah.Psalms 8:6 shows two who are both called Jehovah and the NT…[Read more]

2besee,I'm sure Keith can answer the question himself. He hasn't yet, and since this is a group thread and I thought you were more interested in how your question could be answered rather than who answered it, I gave you an answer. The answer I gave you should be sufficient from the trinitarian viewpoint as well. Now that you have seen my answer…[Read more]

Pierre,What about what I believe is unscriptural? If it IS scriptural, then aren't we doing well to say we 'believe' it??? Yes or no?

Pierre,1 John 5 goes on to say that having the Son equates to having eternal life:11And this is the testimony, that God gave us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. 12Whoever has the Son has life; whoever does not have the Son of God does not have life.

Besee,I gave you a response to that same question but you did not address it. Did you see it?

David's regenerated spirit is with the LORD but his body remains in the grave-decayed. Is death not the separation of spirit from the body? In a casket at a funeral, there lies a body without the spirit…right?

Keith,you said:Quote The scriptures declare the Holy Spirit as a living entity that recieves, hears, speaks, glorifies, teaches, comforts, grieves, can be blasphemed and is subject to Jesus and the Father. The definition of something with those attributes is a living person and not some force or power.Our spirit (the one common to man) is also a…[Read more]

The translators who call Jesus 'our God and Savior' are not only calling Jesus God but also the Father. Jehovah who is both, the God of gods and the Lord of lords does not give His glory to another. The Father and the Son are together the God of gods and the Lord of lords who does not give His glory to another.

If the Judges were theos, and the Pharisees held the seat of Moses, then they qualify as 'theos'. But that doesn't mean that Nicodemus was a god.t8You are right, Jesus never said anyone…[Read more]

Keith,Our spirit which is common to man, is directed by the man but is not considered a separate person. So, I don't see the validity of your explanation.

Pierre,The word 'life' can mean different things. You are one life among many here on HN. The Word 'life' in that sentence is another word for living person. Your wife has brought forth new life when she gave birth to your offspring. Here also 'life' is a word for a living person. Pro-choice activists hope to save 'one life at a time.' That is…[Read more]

Keith,From what you are saying, the spirit of a person is actually a part of the person. I agree with that. It also seems that you are saying that the Spirit of God is a part of God which I agree with also. Do you still believe the Spirit of God is a third person in the Godhead though as opposed to a united part of the two persons in the…[Read more]
