Mike,I did not list that link to show that Jesus was God Almighty by those verses, I showed them to prove the deity of Christ, and that they do. You should read the op of that thread if you want to boast of your research skills. Pride cometh before a fall Mike and you are about to fall, can't say I didn't warn you

According to Kathi, you guys are united in stubborneness…one compound unity of stubborness

Mikeyou said:Quote Now if we factor in the FACT that two or more persons are NEVER referred to with a SINGULAR, PERSONAL PRONOUN, then MY understanding must be the correct one.So, you want me to show you how a compound unity is referred to with singular, personal pronouns. Is that right? And will that put an end to it?Kathi

Quote (mikeboll64 @ July 19 2011,21:02)Quote (Lightenup @ July 18 2011,22:33)Mike,This is the equation, both the Father and the Son are the same nature, no need to change it:1 divine father + 1 divine son = 1 divine unityAnd both of my human fathers were of the same nature also, so it is really MY equation that fits best with what you're trying to…[Read more]

Pierre,Remember context is king. Everytime you see the word God it is not necessarily the Father, or the unity, or the Son. Context will help you understand.I will supply who I believe the pronoun applies to as well as which member of the compound unity of God is being spoken of: Col 1:15 He (the Son) is the image of the invisible God (the…[Read more]

Quote (terraricca @ July 19 2011,18:45)Kathiwhat this means ?one compound unityOk Pierre, I will tell you:The Bible speaks of the unity of God. Moses wrote.Hear, O Israel! The Lord is our God, the Lord is one! (Deuteronomy 6:4).God Cannot Be Divided As a unity God cannot be divided. The technical term is “indivisible.” God cannot be divided,…[Read more]

Pierre,I never ever said they are one being. I say they are one compound unity. A unity is not a being.

Pierre,Wrong verse…keep looking in John 17.Kathi

No Pierre,The equation works in both directions.The two persons are not together as one being, but one compound unity.

Jack,I don't believe I was inferring that He was slain before the foundation of the world.There are some translations that translate what you are thinking of which are more accurate, imo.Rev 13:8New Living Translation (©2007)And all the people who belong to this world worshiped the beast.

Pierre,I can show you but I have found with some people, like yourself that you do better when you find it. Look up the word 'glory' and see what you find in John 17.

Pierre,What did you find out about unity during your search?A+B=CThis shows that two things can become a compound unity.Kathi

Pierre,Do you realize that the Son was in the beginning with the Father before the foundation of the world?Do you think they didn't discuss anything before the foundation of the world? Do you think that the Son had no say in anything that was planned for Him to accomplish?Do a study on what was foreordained or ordained before the foundation of…[Read more]

Mike,I think that it was both their decision and foreordained before the foundation of the world.

No one should be tiled for ignoring a question without putting the person in the hot seat thread first with the question and then PM'd with a notice of a possible tile for not answering and only after several attempts of asking the question. If a tile is given for totally ignoring a question, then it should be removed when the person responds to…[Read more]

Pierre,Where do you go to do a word search?

Pierre,Do a Bible word study on unity, ok. Do you know how to do that? If not, let me know.Kathi

Pierre,Do you not know how to find that scripture? Really? See if you can find it by yourself. If after you tried you cannot, let me know and I will help you.Hint: Do a word search on the word 'glory' in the NT and see if you can find your answer. I found it in just a minute or two just now. You need to learn how to find your own answers in…[Read more]
