BD,You asked:Quote If this is true how can Jesus have a BEGOTTEN NATURE and GOD not have that same nature?Jesus already had His nature before He was begotten. Even men have their nature determined before they are begotten/born. Jesus existed before the ages with divine nature before He was begotten from the Father.

Hi all,
I much prefer the idea of having a discussion rather than a debate…it just has more of a spirit of seeking truth instead of seeking a winner.I invite BD, if interested, to continue our discussion here (from this thread: ( https://www.heavennet.net/cgi-bin….;t=4322 ) about the sonship and single/dual nature of Christ, and what that…[Read more]

Mike,Quote does being told by Jehovah to obey a different god who represents His interests equate that representative to the Almighty God he represents? YES or NO?Nope, only the Son is equal to the Father in nature of whom He represents. No body else.

Mike,2 kings 17:35When the LORD made a covenant with the Israelites, he commanded them: “Do not worship any other gods or bow down to them, serve them or sacrifice to them.Jehovah who is the God of gods (the Almighty Father) and the Lord of lords (the almighty Son) never commands us to bow down or serve other gods.

Ok BD, that's all nice and such but there are times to go away from the stone throwers. Jesus did this also. It's not my time to die.
I am not judging, just distancing myself.Anyway, how would you know that an eternal son couldn't become flesh? You said that scriptures don't say that the Son is eternal. He is called YHWH in places which means…[Read more]Lightenup replied to the topic Biblical discussion – BD, LU, Mikeboll, ST in the forum Group Discussions 13 years, 7 months ago
Well BD I think that I can kick someone out of the thread. I did make the thread and invited you and him to the thread and not the other way around so it is my thread. I believe that I have some control here especially when I'm being belittled and criticized over and over by someone that I invited. If I invited a couple of people over to my house…[Read more]

Hi Andrew,I am not interested in swaying you back to the trinity doctrine. I am interested in challenging your idea of what/who the literal Son of God is. Also, I am not Catholic like the person you were speaking with or like the people that you went to church with. I have sort of been down the road that you are traveling and have studied hard on…[Read more]

Mike,Please stop posting in this thread or I will just have to add another thread here in the debate section to discuss things with BD where you were never invited to. Invited guests should leave when asked to and I have asked you to leave this thread several posts ago, Mike.

BD,Correction, death only had mastery over Jesus because He made it possible by emptying Himself and becoming man and laying down His life, allowing death to have mastery. Before that He could not have died. Death had mastery because it was allowed to by Jesus.God the Father did not empty Himself and lay down His life for mankind. The Father did…[Read more]

Hi Charles,I asked Mike how many 'theos' are to be known, believed in, served, honored, and praised in order to have eternal salvation. He could not seem to answer that.Take care!
Lightenup replied to the topic JOHN 1:1 who is the WORD? in the forum Scriptural Teachings 13 years, 7 months ago
Jammin,I totally agree with you here! The word 'His' is not in the Greek and should not be added. Just like if it said that Jesus existed in the form of man compared to Jesus existed in the form of 'his' man. God here in Phil 2:6 seems to be a particular type of form and not a particular person.Take care, jammin!

Andrew,I will agree that we do not agree but I don't agree to disagree with something this important…that wouldn't be loving your neighbor as yourself. I could just stop confronting your misunderstanding but that won't help you. You need to test the spirits, i.e. test what this spirit is telling you…it is possibly a religious spirit. A…[Read more]
