Jesus does have the title of God, BD. Acts 20:28 “Be on guard for yourselves and for all the flock, among which the Holy Spirit has made you overseers, to shepherd the church of (the) God which He purchased with His own blood.If you look in the Greek, you will see the article 'the' is before the word 'God' and should read 'the God.' Now unless you…[Read more]

BD,Please note that you just wrote:”My family is…” Do you see how the word 'family' is not a plural term yet it does consist of members. hmmm. So, God does not have to be called 'Gods' and 'family' does not have to be called 'families' for either to consist of members…do you see?Let's discuss it further in the other thread though,…

BD,you said:Quote Jesus said about The Almighty: John 17:3And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.Notice that Jesus spoke of himself here as something seperate from “GOD” using “and” if Jesus was part of a membership called God he could not have said some other being is THE ONLY…[Read more]

BD,Now, now, don't exaggerate BD.Where did I ever claim that the Most High was a group membership? Is your family a group membership??

BD,For Him to say that He was the Son of God, literally, then He would be saying that He is also God.

Hi William,It seems to me that the manifestation of the Father is what the Father calls His only Begotten Son…the image, the word of God. The difference that you and I have is that I believe that this Son was always existing in the Father and ready to be begotten from the Father before creation. From what I can tell, you seem to say that it was…[Read more]

Quote (mikeboll64 @ May 28 2012,13:46)I didn't agree to that, Kathi.
I agreed that God Most High is the God of gods and the Lord of lords. For example, Jesus is a god and a lord, but Jehovah is HIS God and HIS Lord.Subsequently, Jesus is also the Lord of other lords. Even more subsequently, there exist even more lords who are the lord of eve…[Read more]Lightenup replied to the topic Biblical discussion – BD, LU, Mikeboll, ST in the forum Group Discussions 14 years, 2 months ago

It is the same thing, Mike.

That is good that we agree on this. Our one God Almighty IS a Father and a Son. Our one God is God of gods AND Lord of lords…a Father AND a Son.

Mike,Our ONE God Almighty is both God of gods and Lord of lords. “For the LORD your God is the God of gods and the Lord of lords, the great, the mighty, and the awesome God who does not show partiality nor take a bribe.1 Cor 8:6 yet for us there is but one God, the Father, from whom are all things and we exist for Him; and one Lord, Jesus Christ,…[Read more]

Mike, what do you mean, “that's right” as if we are agreeing or something…what's right? You say that you do not have a definition of 'dual nature' then how can you say Jesus is not dual natured? If I say that I do not know what it means to be, say, 'zorbified' how can I say someone is not 'zorbified?' Typically Christians claim that He is both…[Read more]
