Mike,Would you mind showing me the verse in Job that says wisdom was created?Can you admit that most translations do not use the word 'created' in Prov 8:22 and that it is grammatically possible to use 'possessed' or 'establish?'Thanks and have a good Saturday,Kathi

Pierre,If you don't know what love Paul is talking about and you don't know what kind of being that God is, just say so and stop with these games.Get to know what an only begotten son is Pierre…it is the foundational truth that the church is built on. Kathi

Pierre,The love Paul talks about is a 'fruit' of the spirt 'of' God, not the type of being He is. Try again.What type of being is God, Pierre?Kathi

Pierre,'Almost all of you' happens to be only a handful of people and I have shown you verses that say the opposite of what you proclaim. The handful of people here are nothing compared to those who are not here that agree that the Son of God is not a creature but the creator of the creature.

Pierre,Do you see any verses quoted there that are not in known translations? If you find anything in my explanations that are contrary to scripture you have always been welcome to challenge them. I will then give you more verses to support that and you will see that those verses are also found in known translations. So, what you call 'proof' that…[Read more]

Who is at work when Jesus comes in his glory in the clouds? The work is out of genuine love. Not just keeping youself in money and being selfish, but out of love for…[Read more]

Mike,you asked:Quote Abraham is the father of all Israelites, right?  His firstborn son (according to the promise) was Issac, right?  So that would make Issac the “firstborn of the Israelites”, right?  Yet his father was NOT an Israelite, was he?God called Abraham, Isaac and Jacob the fathers of the Israelites, Isaac was never called the fi…[Read more]

Mike,you asked:Quote Kathi, out of all the firstborns of the flock, one of them had to be born the earliest, and therefore be the LITERAL firstborn of the flock. Does calling that one “the firstborn of the flock”, true as it is, imply that “the flock”, as a whole, is his parent? Or does it imply that that one is a MEMBER OF the group called “the…[Read more]

Wakeup,I showed you that Christ Jesus emptied Himself…you just quoted the post that had the verse in it. I also quoted you the verse that tells us that Jesus is the only begotten God already and indicated what translation it was from. You denied that it was written. Then you didn't answer my questions. Please go back and find those posts and…[Read more]

Sorry Wakeup,I did not see this post till just now. I see that you have reposted it in this thread:https://www.heavennet.net/cgi-bin….;st=150We can discuss it there.Kathi

Welcome Jeremy,I agree that it is more important to strengthen our spirit and seek spiritual discernment and spiritual wisdom. Stocking up food is not an unwise thing though, consider Joseph who prepared for the famine by doing just that and was able to feed many. Local food pantries are quite beneficial when catastrophe hits. Taking care of the…[Read more]

Pierre,So you don't know what type of being the Father is. Then stop acting like you know what type of being the Son is. They are the same type when you finally figure it out correctly you will see that is what being an only begotten Son means. You can't say that He is the only begotten Son of God and understand him to be of a different type of…[Read more]
