Hi Danny,

You asked:

Hi LU,

If Jesus is Yahweh, then that would contradict Isaiah 45:5.

“I am Yahweh, and there is no one else.
Besides me, there is no God.” Isaiah 45:5

The Bible is a harmony.
So Hebrews 1 has to fit with Isaiah 45:5

If you disagree, then please tell me who is speaking in Isaiah 45:5?
If you say the Father and the Son tog…

Please enlighten us and be more specific as to what he said that was wrong.

Hi Adam why do you post in topics in the “Believer’s Place” if you do not believe in the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus? I’m not saying you shouldn’t post but that is what the skeptics place is for, right?

Admin, what are your thoughts?

Hey everybody,

I just finished watching the finale of season two of “The Chosen” and I am such a fan. The series won the 2021 K-LOVE Fan Award. I encourage you to watch it, you won’t be disappointed and you will fall more and more in love with Jesus.

Gene,

My suggestion to you is to learn Greek. If you were to understand the word “dia” and how to translate it correctly with a word in the accusative Greek case or the genitive Greek case, you would not be continually trying to tell us that “dia” means “because of” or “on account of.” Dia only means that when followed by a word in the genitive…[Read more]

Proclaimer quoted Origen:

He uses the article, when the name of theos refers to the uncreated cause of all things, and omits it when the Word is named theos.

I don’t believe that Origen’s explanation that you quoted above is consistent with the “theos” who hasn’t been “seen” in John 1:18 which does not have the article unless we are to believe…[Read more]

Hi Adam,

Do you believe that all the Jews understand the scriptures exactly alike? When did that start?

This should help Danny:

This first Greek lesson is to clear up how to translate the Greek word “dia.”

Translating “dia” (Strong’s #1223) is simplified by what type of word follows it. If the word after “dia” is in the genitive case it is translated as “through” as opposed to the accusative case which would’ve translated as “for the sake of.”  I have simplified it to th…[Read more]

Hi Adam,

Like I said, I speak of one YHVH who is two persons, not two persons who are of different YHVH families. There is one family of YHVH. The Father and His Son are the two members with eternal and divine essence. Do you think that Proclaimer and Mike don’t believe that there is a family of YHVH?

Do you not think that the OT teaches that…[Read more]

Theos is a Greek word used in the NT. In the NT, knowing YHVH is both God and Lord, the NT usually designates the Father as God and the Son as Lord. Both are together as one YHVH family not two different YHVH families and therefore not two different Gods.

This was your post in response to me trying to tell you that “theos” has a plural form but you seemed really confused because of how you responded to me. You should have actually have taken your own advice.

LU:As is apparent in your last post, you have no idea about Greek plural nouns or singular nouns. Here is a picture of how the root word…

Proclaimer said:

The Word was theos just means that the Word is divine, not ‘a divine’.

The Father identifies the “Word” as YHVH, Heb 1:10-12 here:

10And:

“In the beginning, O Lord (YHVH), You laid the foundations of the earth,

and the heavens are the work of Your hands.

11They will perish, but You remain;

they will all wear out like a garme…[Read more]

Hi Adam,

You said in response to a recent post:

Coming to Deut 10: 17 For the Lord your God is God of gods and Lord of lords, the great God, mighty and awesome, who is not partial and takes no bribe, 18 who executes justice for the orphan and the widow, and who loves the strangers, providing them food and clothing. 19 You shall also love the st…

Hi Adam,

Thank you for your reply regarded here:

One question to you Adam, do you see in the NT that the Father is also identifying His
Son as YHVH? I’m not asking you if you agree that the Son is also YHVH, I’m just asking if you agree that it appears that way specifically from Heb. 1. Please just give me a “yes” or a “no.”

LU

P.S. I’ll respon…

Hi Danny,

Thank you for your reply. You said:

There are manuscripts that calls Jesus with the article “THE only begotten God” in John 1.18.
And some without the article.
Does this make any difference?
Well, I have to study that a little bit more.

I wouldn’t build a doctrine around the article whether it is present or not in a ver…[Read more]

Hi Adam,

Thank you for your reply.

You said:

As we read the above portion of scripture it is clear that the Lord(Yahweh) alone God and no one else is found in this text of Hebrew Bible. You want to see Jesus the supposed Messiah also as Yahweh in these words but that will be twisting the scriptures which was freely done by the NT writers.

Hi Danny,

Jesus is the only begotten God and the Father identifies Him as YHVH who laid the foundation of the earth and the heavens are the work of His hands.

John 1:18

No one has seen God at any time; the only begotten God who is in the bosom of the Father, He has explained Him.

This refers to the Messiah’s first coming and rejection. No mystery here. Jesus is the only one who fulfilled this prophecy.

I agree! A couple of years ago, I was a teacher of English as a second language to several refugees through a ministry held at my church. I had about five of the students of different faiths, Muslim mainly, sit in a row a…[Read more]
