Thanks t8 for the explanation. There is no lag in time loading HN for me. However, I had clicked on the fb icon and it took me to a fb login, which I did and later clicked again on the fb icon but I just noticed that HN is not listed as one of my 'likes' so it didn't work for me for some reason.

Also, notice that Abraham called the Word of the LORD, “LORD God?”You are completely missing the point of the New Testament Kathi. It is the revelation of…[Read more]

Hi Bo,You only see Jesus as the 'Shoot' and only speak of Him as the 'Shoot/offspring' of David/Jesse. You do not know Him as the Root of Jesse. That is why you are perplexed with what I say. As the Root of Jesse, He is part of the root 'system', which I believe is YHVH who is our God-YHVH who is one. YHVH is both God of gods and Lord of lords.…[Read more]

Quote (mikeboll64 @ Mar. 18 2013,20:56)The italicized words below are things said about “the Word” in John 1.  The scriptures listed in parenthesis identify some of the places in scripture where those same exact things are said about Jesus.1.  And the Word was a god:  (Is 9:6, Heb 1:8-9, etc.)2.  He was with God in the beginning:  (John 17:5)3.  …[Read more]

Seems useless to me. What is clicking on the fb icon supposed to do? I have a fb account and don't see any thing that it does. It doesn't take me to a HN fb page, is it supposed to?
