t8,Where does the Bible say that He is one being? A unity takes singular personal pronouns, there are several examples, the church is a 'she' for example.

t8,you said:Quote It doesn't say one LORD Jehovah Yeshua.Yes it does…you are in denial my friend. See the Aramaic Bible of Plain English on the Bible.cc site here:http://bible.cc/1_corinthians/8-6.htmThere are several more examples of the Aramaic manuscripts clearly calling Jesus the “LORD Jehovah Yeshua.” Would you like to see them?

Quote (t8 @ July 31 2012,18:52)Quote (Lightenup @ July 30 2012,17:28)Why is it that you and your wife are a unity and not a binity or are you both a unity as well as a binity?We are separate persons who choose to be united in spirit and flesh. We are not one being with 2 persons.A Binity is a being made up of 2 persons just as a Trinity is being…[Read more]

Mike,you said:Quote I personally think the Aramaic NT is a TRANSLATION from the Greek, like the info I posted on the other thread attested to.  (Don't forget that in that info I posted, they said, “One thing is CERTAIN – the earliest Aramaic NT's didn't contain any of the epistles”.)  So at the most, you could try to use the four gospels to help y…[Read more]

Mike,you said:Quote We were discussing 1 Cor 8:6, Kathi. That's why I said what I said. And just like 1 Cor 8:6 ruins your “two YHWH” doctrine by calling Jesus ALONE our “one YHWHs”, this Luke passage seems to teach that both the Father AND the Messiah are “the LORD YHWH” – ruining your “one is 'God' and the other is 'Lord' ” claim.Hold on…[Read more]

Quote (mikeboll64 @ July 30 2012,19:27)Quote (Lightenup @ July 29 2012,22:22)Mike,It is most likely, according to what Josephus said, that Paul spoke in Aramaic and wrote in Aramaic,Let's not take a letter from Josephus, where he said he preferred to speak Hebrew, and apply it to the entire NT, okay?Josephus said nothing about Paul speaking or…[Read more]

Mike,you ask:Quote Then wouldn't the unity of the two always be called “Lord God”? Obviously not.Quote Why is the unity so often called by just the name of the “God” part of the unity?God would be used in the general sense there.Quote Also, Jehovah put His name on the angel in Exodus, the Israelites, Jerusalem, etc. Isaiah 43:6-7Bring my sons…[Read more]

BD,you said:Quote So during the time he hadn't been given “the name” yet, what was his name and what was the Name of the one who gave him the Name.You are saying that YHWH was a being who gave the name YHWH to another being whom we also call Jesus. Doesn't this mean that Jesus was not always named YHWH?They are both always YHWH because they have…[Read more]

Mike,Go to this link http://aramaicnt.com/articles.htmThen read this article, it talks about the missing epistles, etc. and should bring more complete understanding to what is being said in the one you posted:”Does the Peshitta stem from the Old Syriac?”

Mike,Here is more info:http://aramaicnt.com/articles.htm

Also, Mike, not only are we discussing Paul's letters but the gospels. In Luke 2, Jesus is called YHWH. See here:Luke 2:8 8But there were some shepherds in the region lodging there and they kept the nightly watch over their flocks; 9And behold, the Angel of God came to them and the glory of THE LORD JEHOVAH shone upon them and they were greatly…[Read more]

Mike,It is most likely, according to what Josephus said, that Paul spoke in Aramaic and wrote in Aramaic, then had what he had written, translated into the Greek for those who spoke in Greek. He may even had an interpreter when he spoke to the Greek speaking men and women. Paul might not have even spoken Greek, or maybe only a little. I'm going to…[Read more]

Your welcome Mike.

BD,I did not say there was a time when the only begotten God didn't have a name, I said that there may have been a time that He hadn't been given it yet.As an earthly example, again, I could have decided the names for all five of my kids before I even conceived the first. Each child was officially given the name when the birth certificate was…[Read more]

Hi Mike,I know that there is an Aramaic interlinear of the whole NT through Bible.cc. I'm not sure if it is all from the same manuscript or not.
