    Bo,Quote Why do none of these things make Moses a part of the Godhead, or equal to Jehovah……………. but if similar things are said about Jesus, those things DO make him “Jehovah Jr”, or equal to his own God? Jesus was not 'as' God but was God with God.Moses was 'as' God…a metaphor.John 1:1 does not say:In the beginning was the Word, and…[Read more]

    Bo,Quote What's your take on Exodus 7:17? Exodus 7:17'Thus says the LORD, “By this you shall know that I am the LORD: behold, I will strike the water that is in the Nile with the staff that is in my hand, and it will be turned to blood.You need to read the whole story to realize the LORD is speaking metaphorically. Moses will be 'as' God to Aaron…[Read more]

    BD,Quote God created Jesus by His Word not that Jesus was that word. Jesus was the Word that became flesh.So you agree that Jesus was the Word that became flesh, that's good. The scriptures say that Jesus, the Word, made all things and not one thing was made without Him. So you say something different, you say that all but many things was made…[Read more]

    t8-You said:Quote The son came from the Father. Jesus said if you do not believe that I came from God then you don't believe Jesus testimony and you instead believe a lie and the Father of lies is the Devil. So what subtle lie does the Devil try to convince Eve and other weak vessels that give him an ear? Is it that Jesus is God, thereby denying…[Read more]

    Bo,Quote Okay well did Jesus directly say he was God and if he didn't why not?Well, He calls Himself the 'first and the last' which is declaring divinity.Rev 1:17 I am the first and the last, 18and the living One; and I was dead, and behold, I am alive forevermore, and I have the keys of death and of Hades.

    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.
