Mike,I said:Quote In Acts 4 you can see the one God (who includes the Father and the Son as in Deuteronomy) and then the one they knew as the Christ…the Son according to the flesh. The Son according to His humanity is included in the one God that created the world.I meant to say “the Son according to His divinity is included in the one God that…[Read more]

Pierre,I would say that it is likely that the men that were being spoken to in their language they knew from birth, also spoke the common language of the day in Jerusalem. Let's say you grew up in Poland and learned Polish as your mother tongue. Then you also learned English. Wouldn't it be quite surprising if someone started speaking Polish to…[Read more]

t8,Thanks for putting up this documentary. That is creepy! It is good that they showed the same thing happening to the Hindus. I think I'll stay away from this type of thing…far away!

Pierre,What is such a miracle about speaking tongues in your own language??? I think you are confused. 7They were amazed and astonished, saying, “Why, are not all these who are speaking Galileans? 8“And how is it that we each hear them in our own language to which we were born? 9“Parthians and Medes and Elamites, and residents of Mesop…[Read more]

Pierre,The apostles spoke in a tongue that was different then their native tongue. One of the Syriac documents address this and agrees with the Bible.And from thence they went up to the city, and(7) proceeded to an upper room-that in which our Lord had observed the passover with them, and the place where the inquiries had been made: Who it was…[Read more]

Mike,Quote So not only do we have TWO Gods when scripture is very clear we only have ONE, but one of these two EQUAL mighty Gods SERVES the other one? Does that really sound like “equality” to you? When other nations served the Israelites, were those nations EQUAL to Israel? Kathi, just a rule of thumb for you: If one is the SERVANT of the…[Read more]

Pierre,No I am not saying that Kathi alone sees it that way. Many do…go check out the Firstborn thread, like I have told you before.Stop being an antagonist!

Mike,Quote So one of our “mighty Gods” is an errand boy for the other “mighty God”?One of the mighty Gods is the wise a powerful Son who serves His Father faithfully and the creation which they brought forth from nothing.Quote So one of our “mighty Gods” is an errand boy for the other “mighty God”?The Son who is the mighty God from eternity, also…[Read more]

Pierre,It all fits together if you understand. If you don't understand, then you will say what you said.

Hi Happyman,You are very welcome. You are right…a time and a place for everything I'm glad that this thread has helped you.Love to you,Kathi

Jesus Walks on Water – Story Summary:After feeding the 5000, Jesus sends his disciples ahead of him in a boat to cross the Sea of Galilee. Several hours later in the night, the disciples encounter a storm. Jesus comes to them, walking on the water. This terrifies the disciples and they think they are seeing a ghost. Jesus tells them in verse 27,…[Read more]

Thanks Ted, all is well and I did enjoy my vacation very much. What I am gleaning from these Syriac historical documents are many things. I find the boldness and confidence in the early Christians very impressive and can imagine what an exciting time in our Christian history that must have been. Also, I have thought about how much the apostles…[Read more]

tt33,Please get yourself some help from a pastor near you. Ask someone you trust for a name of a pastor that they love. Do not take your life, that is for God to do in His time. You need someone to personally talk to you that can answer your questions. You are focusing on the problem and that is filling you with fear…like Peter who tried to…[Read more]

Quote (shimmer @ July 02 2011,17:51)Kathi,Do you believe that you can now, through Jesus, go directly to the Father?Do you believe that what Christ did, was tear down the dividing wall?Do you believe that when you go to the Father in prayer, and address the Father as the Father, that Jesus is in you? Or is Jesus not?Is Jesus out there – someone…[Read more]

Pierre,Do you think that God the Father was always the authority over all things? Do you think that the creator would have a king over Him, ever? Do you think that the kingdom of God did not exist till after Jesus was born of Mary?Thanks in advance for answering,Kathi

Mike,Yes it is a Messianic prophecy. According to His humanity He became king after His resurrection, as I understand it. According to His divinity He was always in authority with His Father in the kingdom of God, as the Son, from the beginning of creation.Rev 3 14″To the angel of the church in Laodicea write: These are the words of the Amen,…[Read more]

Pierre,Look at the scriptures that I have given you and you can read truth.

Pierre,The 'if' was to help you reason it out, not because I doubt that He always was a king.

Pierre,If He has always been a king, then He would already be a king when He became flesh and was born. As the offspring of David, I still believe that He received the kingdom promised to David after His resurrection.So my view remains.Kathi
