Bo,What is better, to be all loving or all knowing. What if not knowing something is due to a loving reason. Maybe it is for the sake of love that the Father only knows the day and the hour to spare the Son of having to make that call. We don't know why the Son does not know the day or the hour of His return but if love is greater than knowledge,…[Read more]

Mike,The 'begotten' part of only begotten is from a certain root word and is often confused with another root word. You may be looking at the wrong root word. I think you have to look into the correct Greek root word and an English dictionary is not going to be specific enough. What Strong's # is the root word for begotten that you are looking…[Read more]

Quote My point was that if you believe in God and don't believe his testimony, (like the Jews as you said) then you don't really believe..That's true and your answer of one theos is not correct. You deny the Son as another theos that you must believe in, know, and serve for eternal salvation.A half truth is not the full truth. You seem to really…[Read more]

Hi Bo, the command is to love YHWH your God…YHWH is the God of gods and the Lord of lords-YHWH Echad, the eternal unity.

Wrong, you lose the bonus round!1 John 5:9We accept man’s testimony, but God’s testimony is greater because it is the testimony of God, which he has given about his Son. 10Anyone who believes in the Son of God has this testimony in his heart. Anyone who does not believe God has made him out to be a liar, because he has not believed the tes…[Read more]

t8,Quote But if we have God, then we have his son as the result.Many Jews think they have God but they do not have the Son as the result. Scriptures say that we need to know the Son for eternal life but you say we only need to know the Father. The Holy Spirit has so much to teach you! I think I will clue you in at the hot seat thread.
