Mike,There are angels in heaven and we are not to worship angels. The firstborn over all creation created them. Only the Father and the Son receive worship.If you want verses to prove that there are angels in heaven, do a word search.If you want to see that the firstborn over all creation created all things in heaven, go to Col 1.If you want to…[Read more]

Well, Pierre, I can't answer a question if I don't understand what is being asked. Maybe someone else that claims to understand your posts can answer you.Kathi

Pierre,He was not created. You miss truth there. The God of gods created the world through the Lord of lords, creation belongs to both of them, just like salvation belongs to both of them. Both of them form a compound unity named Jehovah, our God.You say it is not scriptural but you do not defend that with apologetics, so it is only the op…[Read more]

Irene,See the date on which I showed you the Deuteronomy 10:17 verse in the quote in the above post? July 18th was just 3 days ago and until Pierre showed you the Deuteronomy 10:17 verse, you showed that you didn't have a clue about it. I'm sure that is frustrating for you and realize that your lack of memory is something that we all have to…[Read more]

Pierre,I don't know what Paul would say, but I know that you don't want to believe what I say so you need to find some things out for yourself. You are a fisherman, right?

t8Quote It's the same argument as “Is Adam and Eve equal as adam.We know that both are fully adam.So if Jesus is theos in nature and we can partake in divine nature and will have a body like his, then yes we are the same.But in name, position, and authority, he is greater just as Adam was greater in position as the first born son.

The presence or existence of the Son is why God is Almighty AND Father. The Son has always existed. The Father has always been Almighty.Without the Son, God would not be Almighty or Father, imo. The Father is Almighty only when the Son is with Him. The Son is always with Him, the Son is eternal too. Thus, the Father is always Almighty.

Mike,I am not playing your game where you keep changing the question. The question of yours that I quoted was sufficient to ask for me to prove what was necessary for Jehovah our God to be a compound unity and yet to be referred to with a singular personal pronoun.I proved that and I am done proving that. It is an established fact that the church…[Read more]
