David,Jesus Himself does not call the Holy Spirit 'Mother.' Are you discrediting Him as you discredit others that don't refer to the Holy Spirit as the Mother? If He doesn't give the Holy Spirit the honor of the title 'Mother,' isn't that a good enough reason for us to not call the Holy Spirit 'Mother' also? Please address this point.…[Read more]

In human terms, my parents are my root but not my offspring. The Son of God is both, the root as creator (by Him all things were created, Col.1) and the offspring as He became also the Son of Man.

Nick and Gene,The Son of God is the root of David, David is the stem, and the Son of Man is the offspring of David. Jesus is both the Son of God and the Son of Man. He is both 100% root and 100% offspring. 100% God of God, 100% man of man.

Nick and Gene,A plan of a future being does not actively give anything. The Spirit of Christ was a being and not a plan of a being who gave David his beginning. A root is not a plan of a plant but the living foundation of a plant.

Nice simile, btw.Lightenup replied to the topic The son begotten when? in the forum Scriptural Teachings 16 years, 1 month ago
Could some one that was begotten 'before the ages' also be considered being begotten 'during eternity.' Also, if someone is 'from eternity' doesn't that mean that eternity existed first? Is eternity a period of time albeit time unlike the time we know with 24 hours/day and 12 months/year, in other words…could one thing happen after another or…[Read more]

Hi Mike,Do you think that the earth, created by God, was made out of something that always existed? How about the Son, was He made out of something that always existed?Just wondering what you think here. Thanks!
