Quote You say that God is YHWH.The Father is YHWH.Jesus is YHWH.Both of them together is YHWH.The following is more accurate:I say our Elohim is YHWH Echad, an eternal unity of YHWh the Father-our one God, YHWH the Son-our one Lord together with their united Spirit in one eternal unity.I used 'Elohim' in a more general fuller sense of the term…[Read more]

t8,If Adam had a son named Adam also, then there would be two identified as Adam who both had the qualities of adam, correct?

I would never say 'YHWH' our Gods is one substance' in regards to the shema.YHWH our Elohim is YHWH Echad, the eternal unity. The emphasis is on being eternal and being a unity, not on a substance.Furthermore, why are you taking my 'English' words and 'translating' them? They are already in English. You are trying to paraphrase them and you are…[Read more]

t8,I do not believe that YHWH is defined as a substance or essence. It seems to be more about an eternal existence.
Lightenup replied to the topic The divider of Christians in the forum Truth or Tradition 13 years, 6 months ago
t8,I would not say one YHWH 'substancce' or much of the other stuff you said. The Son was begotten at one point in time and before that, He was within the Father. He is not begotten over and over if that is what you are implying.The Father, Son, nd Spirit are one YHWH Echad, one eternal unity.

t8, the scripture doesn't say Jesus became a son that day, it just says He was begotten/brought forth that day. Were your sons you 'son' before they were born/begotten? Weren't they sons already for months before they were actually born?
Lightenup replied to the topic The divider of Christians in the forum Truth or Tradition 13 years, 6 months ago
The word 'son' is related to that verse. 'Thou art my Son, today I have begotten you.” This is correct.

Quote (t8 @ Nov. 01 2012,03:34)Does today mean eternity?”Today I have become your father.”t8,Technically the verse in Hebrews and Psalms that you refer to does not have the word 'Father' in it. The correct translation is “Today I have begotten you.” A dad is already a father before the child is brought forth if the child is within. This is the…[Read more]

Hi Bo,I understand what you are saying but I can use the same verses to show YHWH is a unity and back it up with the NT and all those verses that were in that video.
