Mike,Just answer my question without your riff raff.

Happy Fourth of July, Charity, et al!The 4th of July Picnic A Jewish Rabbi and a Catholic Priest met at Albuquerque's annual 4th of July picnic. Old friends, they began their usual banter.'This baked ham is really delicious,' the priest teased the rabbi. 'You really ought to try it. I know it's against your religion, but I can't understand why…[Read more]

Oh, Mike, you know we have one God, the Father and one Lord, Jesus Christ and that Jesus Christ and the Father are both theos. So, let me ask you again, how many theos are for us?1 Cor 8:6yet for us there is but one God, the Father, from whom are all things and we exist for Him; and one Lord, Jesus Christ, by whom are all things, and we exist through Him.

Mike,How many theos are FOR US? Just one or two or many?

You cant answer my questions BD? It might help you.

Quote (seekingtruth @ July 04 2012,02:34)The throne is not a “chair” but a position of power and authority, which is why He could overcome and sit down with His Father on His throne (having been given all power and authority) while we can join Jesus on His “throne” of ruling and reigning (one may have several “thrones” in their lives, some shared,…[Read more]

Mike,Quote And surely you can understand that John was saying “the throne of God and of the Lamb”, right?No, that is not what I understand. You do realize that Jesus is seated with the Father on His throne, right?Rev 3:21 To him who overcomes, I will give the right to sit with me on my throne, just as I overcame and sat down with my Father on his throne.

Mike,Your 'examples' are not comparable to the verse in Rev 22 regarding the throne. A better comparison would require a place (singular) of person 1 and of person 2 that is proven that the place is not shared by both person 1 and person 2 but each person has their own place. Like this verse…how many homes are being talked about and do Simon and…[Read more]
