Mike,Thanks for your answers.you said:Quote I know that God, ALONE and BY HIMSELF, created all things THROUGH His holy servant Jesus Christ.So God did not create anything directly, is that what you are saying?Also, by your answers, you admit that Jesus is a god that is given praise, honor, glory and dominion for ever and ever with the Father and…[Read more]

Bo, Abraham and Noah obeyed and believed in YHWH and since YHWH is both the Father and the Son, they did depend on Jesus, YHWH the Son, for their salvation and they depended on the Father also for their salvation. They knew Him as YHWH. Abraham even has a face to face discussion with Him in Gen 18.

Pierre,I do not know what you are talking about. I do not know how you would answer those questions. Please answer them with a yes or no and tell me which question you are saying that about.

t8, do you think what I have suggested to Pierre in the above post will work for what he wants as far as a place where he can discuss with only certain people?

Well Pierre, make a thread that is a closed discussion between you and whom you consider 'mature believers' and test it on one topic to see if you like it and accomplish with it what you want. If it works, then make as many others in the same 'closed' manner for other topics that you want to talk about. There doesn't have to be a whole new board…[Read more]

Pierre,Do you believe in the internet? Do you understand it? Is it useful to you?

Good post jammin!

Pierre,There isn't a limit to the threads you can make here just for you and your cohorts. Have at it. I predict a short life to them or that they become a second grade gossip column about other members here. Why don't you test it out.

Mike,The one theos that is the mediator is a mediator between us and the one theos that is the Father.Now answer my question:Mike, is this mediator one of the two 'the theos' that was involved in creation, needed to be believed in for eternal salvation of all mankind, mentioned in our prayers, given praise, honor, glory and dominion for ever and…[Read more]

Quote (t8 @ Dec. 08 2012,16:01)LU, let's be clear about something.The reason you and KJ have the view that YHWH is the God of this wicked world is because if it was Satan as most already know, you both would then have to concede to the true meaning of the word 'theos' and thus it would threaten your whole case about Jesus being the Most High…[Read more]

Quote (terraricca @ Dec. 08 2012,18:10)i have no objection to go for new one and better ;but I would like to see if possible to have a section to be limited to certain members to discuss deeper truth and not be overwhelmed by elementary or religious  comments ,but yet can be viewed by all ,this is all of my 3 centsPierre,Why don't you consider…[Read more]

I vote for #2.

t8,I couldn't have said it better than Clarke's commentary on the verse. I realize that your opinion that satan is here meant is a popular opinion, but to think that KJ and myself are the only two who think it is God Almighty meant here is really an opinion that needs enlightenment. Here is Clarke's commentary on the matter:Clarke's Commentary on…[Read more]

MIKE…We have been over and over with this verse. I have proved beyond a shadow of a doubt that the verse is about the name that was given Him, not about the people. Remember the pronoun 'which' is singular and neuter the same as 'name'…unlike the 'them' which is plural and masculine.If the Greeks didn't substitute the name YHWH for LORD, this…[Read more]
