Quote (jb2u @ June 20 2013,15:14)FIVE QUESTIONS, PLEASE ANSWER.You state that the Prince was 100% prince and 100% pauper. You state that “Jesus didn't empty Himself of being God, the Son.”If you insist on believing that Jesus was God, even while on Earth, then 1) WHY did He need God to do miracles or speak His words?2) WHY couldn't He just use His…[Read more]

cont'd…Quote What I am doing is explaining those verses IN LIGHT OF other scripture. I am not going based on “my bias.” I am going based on what OTHER VERSES IN THE BIBLE has to say about who Jesus is and is not! That is NOT bias. That is being able to read and understand the word of God.I could say the same thing. The trinitarians could say…[Read more]

jb,Quote You act as if I am limiting God just because I take scripture for what it actually says.From what I have seen, you have told me the scriptures that I have copied and pasted are wrong. If you took scripture for what it actually says, you would have no problem finding the pre-existence of Christ and the divinity of Christ.Quote For…[Read more]

Pierre,Do you realize that an action is not an object?
Lightenup replied to the topic in the forum Who is this Jesus? 12 years, 11 months ago
So, Pierre, was the act of begetting the first step of the creation of God, in your opinion?
Lightenup replied to the topic in the forum Who is this Jesus? 12 years, 11 months ago
Pierre, do you believe that Jesus was begotten before creation?
Lightenup replied to the topic in the forum Who is this Jesus? 12 years, 11 months ago
But Jesus was there before the creation, right Pierre?

So Pierre, there were two theos in the beginning before creation, right?
Lightenup replied to the topic The Peshitta in the forum Bible Texts & Translations 12 years, 11 months ago
That is good Pierre, consider both. The original would be the one that was God breathed and the other one may also be God breathed. When you come to what seems to be discrepancies, then the original would be the one to go by though. The true original would give the clearest wording so studying about that language and the idioms unique to that…[Read more]

Pierre,Did your LORD Jesus who is a theos exist before creation?
Lightenup replied to the topic in the forum Who is this Jesus? 12 years, 11 months ago
Pierre, I will tell you what that is to me and to you…if you deny who He is you cannot enter the narrow gate. It has eternal implications. He is the only way through the gate. Even the demons believe that He is the Son of God, that is not enough to believe about Him. Now, is He your theos or not?

Pierre,You asked:Quote How can Jesus be my God if we both him and I have the same GodAnswer, for starters:1. You and all things in heaven and on earth were created through the theos, Jesus.2.
