Gene,
If I remember right, Jesus told him that he wasn’t dead yet when he was given the choice to go back.

Gene,
Jesus, according to the flesh has one biological human parent, (Mary).
Jesus, according to the flesh has one legal but not biological human father, (Joseph).
The conception in Mary was from the Holy Spirit. Mary is a distant offspring in the line of David, therefore so is her firstborn son, Jesus. Her conception was supernatural and…[Read more]

Thanks for your response. I have got to give you credit for trying but at the same time missing why Jesus is in the lineage of Abraham to Joseph (according to the flesh). It was because Jesus was born of Joseph’s wife, Mary.
If Joseph was not married to Mary, Jesus’ mother, Jesus would not be in Joseph’s lineage.
Matthew has a pattern…[Read more]

Thank you for your response.
Do you realize that pronouns in Greek are written in a way to show if they refer to a female or a male? That word “whom” refers to a female, so, it does not refer to Joseph, it refers to Mary. See the “RelPro-GFS” under “whom” below in Matthew 1:16? That “F” stands for “female.” If it meant Joseph, it would be…[Read more]

You asked:
I would like people to explain their understanding to, “this day I have begotten thee”.
“Thou art my Son, this day I have begotten thee”
Also, can you agree that the Son is called God’s Son because God had begotten him?
The Son is not called God’s Son because God had begotten him (begotten from the dead in regards to the v…[Read more]

Gene,
You said:
LU……tell us, how does, a Spirit “become” flesh? Explain that to us please. Jesus told us God was a Spirit, and he said he was not a Spirit, even after he was resurected from the Grave. So how do you reconcile that with saying Jesus is God who is Spirit?
Spirit can and does “indwell” flesh, but never “is” flesh, as far as I c…

Gene,
You said this:
LU……NO SCRIPTURE SAY GOD the Father, IS A SON. Thats an OXYMORON, NO scripture say God is outside of time either, that I know of.
What post of mine are you referring to, I don’t believe that I said such a thing. Also, I don’t believe that I mentioned anything about the outside of time comment.

The WORD is a “He” in John chapter 1.
John 1:2
He was in the beginning with God.Lightenup replied to the topic Born and begotten in the forum Scriptural Teachings 6 years ago

LU:
If the one true God calls the only begotten Son: “God” and “YHVH our Righteousness” then it is so.
Heb 1, Jeremiah 23:6.
Proclaimer:
If Jesus says ‘ye are theos’, then so be it.
That’s right Proclaimer…now proclaim how many of those called “theos” in the Bible, do we need to know and follow and believe in for eternal life.

Jesus served his “head” and we are to do likewise and follow our head in the same manner. The head of man is Christ. If we do well, we ultimately serve both the Father and the Son.
