Quote (Marlin1 @ Feb. 23 2012,22:38)Quote You are welcome! However, this passage indicates there are two great Gods, one speaking about the other and referring to the other as LORD (YHVH).Kathi,  Don't you see,  These speak of the very same God creating all things.  The very same Spirit.MarlinMarlin,The NT speaks of two:1 Cor 8:yet for us there is…[Read more]

Quote (Marlin1 @ Feb. 23 2012,22:30)Kathi said,Quote I'm not sure why you assume that two persons who are each God by nature can't be considered a unity as God to us. Maybe worldly wisdom prohibits this but two perfect eternal beings, one from within the other as a son, must be in perfect, harmonious unity, or one or both would cease from being…[Read more]

When looking at this passage in Heb 1:5For to which of the angels did He ever say,         “YOU ARE MY SON,         TODAY I HAVE BEGOTTEN YOU”?         And again,         “I WILL BE A FATHER TO HIM         AND HE SHALL BE A SON TO ME”?I see two separate situations. I believe God said, “Today I have begotten you” before creation…and then, I beli…[Read more]

God never said at His baptism that He was begotten on that day Nick.

Quote (Marlin1 @ Feb. 23 2012,15:02)Quote I believe that the Son of God has been eternally existent, first within the Father and then begotten from the Father before the ages.

Nick,Do you have some scriptures that say God did not need the Son?

Quote (cavedave @ Feb. 22 2012,17:37)It may be a good idea to not take one scripture and try to make a picture out of it that it is not really painting.In the above taking these scriptures to say Jesus created all things in the sweet by and by at first looks like it may be a good idea to support the way we have been told it must have been. When in…[Read more]

Well Mike,You won't find that in scripture.

Nick,For starters:John 14:6 Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.John 5:23 He who does not honor the Son does not honor the Father, who sent him.There are so many…The Father created THROUGH the SonThe Father saves THROUGH the SonThe Father judges THROUGH the SonThe Father's…[Read more]
