Hi Nick,So what happened to the Son's original spirit?LU

Nick,What shares in the spirit of Christ if not our own spirit then?

Hi Nick,1 Cor 6:17 But the one who joins himself to the Lord is one spirit with Him. This is what Wycliffe says about this verse.1 Cor 6:15-1717. One spirit. One of the strongest expressions of unity and security in the Word of God. As one author has put it, “The sheep may wander from the shepherd, the branch may be cut off from the vine; the…[Read more]

Quote (Nick Hassan @ Sep. 29 2008,14:25)Hi LU, No such verse then?.Hi Nick,It is there, read it carefullyLU

Nick,You asked where it speaks of two spirits becoming one. See this verse, it is drawing a parallel of two becoming one.1 Cor 6:16-1816 Or do you not know that the one who joins himself to a prostitute is one body with her? For He says, “THE TWO SHALL BECOME ONE FLESH.” 17 But the one who joins himself to the Lord is one spirit with Him. NASUI…[Read more]

Quote (Nick Hassan @ Sep. 29 2008,00:40)Hi LU, So his anointing was an off and on thing?When kings are anointed it is in a moment.Nick,The Holy Spirit does the will of the Father as to whom it will empower and when and for what purposes.

Hi Nick,Quote The Spirit of God is not limited by donkeys, but human babies?Say what?Quote We cannot be born Spirit filled so how can we follow him? Did you know that John the Baptist was filled with the Holy Spirit while in the womb of his mother?Luke 1:15-1615 “For he will be great in the sight of the Lord; and he will drink no wine or liquor,…[Read more]

Hi again,Quote So the question is WHEN did he become anointed.The Spirit manifests in power but he showed no amazing powers till the Jordan. Well, I believe that He was anointed with power whenever He needed to serve His Father in a powerful way. The power of the Holy Spirit can come and go and comes for different purposes. The filling of the…[Read more]

Hi Nick,The Son of God, when He came as a human baby had the powers of a natural human baby-none except maybe cry, suck, and eliminate. The Son took on the limits of a human baby, no prior knowledge, no special abilities, just like a natural human baby. The same spirit that He was born with before creation continued within the human babe.LU

Quote (Nick Hassan @ Sep. 28 2008,23:26)Hi LU, Was he filled with and led by the Spirit of the Father, or was he working in his own original powers you claim he had? Of what did he empty himself?Hi Nick,Please read this carefully because I don't think that you are grasping this:As I just stated in the above post, I do not think that He came into…[Read more]

Hi Nick,No one can make Him anything that He is not and no one can lessen Him except in their mind. We ought not limit Him to meet our comfort zone and our specifications.If I needed a physician and I could choose between one with no experience and one with years of experience who has been taught under the best of all physicians, the latter one…[Read more]

Quote (Nick Hassan @ Sep. 28 2008,20:37)Hi LU, His anointing by the Spirit of God was witnessed at the Jordan and enabled him to begin his works of power. he was not a superman we cannot followAre you competing with Him or following Him? The more super He is the, more I would want to follow Him. We can be like Him in that he overcame sin with…[Read more]

Nick,The more He witnessed the power of His Father in creation and everything else would only make Him a better leader for us to follow. He leads us to the Father and explains the Father. He witnessed the Father's powers firsthand at His Father's side. When He became limited within a man's body He felt temptation like us, yet overcame it. That…[Read more]

Nick,When I say that the Son of God received all of His powers from His Father, why do you ask “So Jesus should not have ascribed all power to God as he did?”Man can be filled with the Holy Spirit and much later receive their anointing of the Holy Spirit to begin their ministry.

Hi Nick,All powers He had were given Him by the Father from His beginning even as a heavenly being.He was born in the flesh as a man that was Christ the Lord even on day one as a baby.His anointed ministry as a man began at Jordan.LU

Hi Nick,Quote Posted: Sep. 29 2008,08:25 Hi lU,Of course the DWELLING amongst us may refer only from the time of his anointing.He was barely noticed before then among men. Hi Nick,You are forgetting these events:Before conception:Angel appears to Mary telling her that she will conceive, by the Holy Spirit, the Son of God.An angel appears to…[Read more]

Quote (Lightenup @ Sep. 20 2008,15:36)Hello Gollamudi,Yes, I understand that you can't see my perspective.  Be that as it is.  I would really like to know your thoughts after a good long look at these verses, pay particular attention to what the speaker says about Himself in v. 16:Who would you say is the “I” in this passage:Isa 48:12-1612 “…[Read more]

Georg and Irene,If the one spoken of in your Proverbs passage is a foster child then He would need to be adopted just like us to be God's son. No where in scripture is He referred to as a “foster child” or “adopted” other than this translation. Scripture tells us that He is God's only begotten Son, not first adopted but firstborn. I would…[Read more]

Hi t8 and Tim,I go to a church, a Baptist one, and I disagree that all churches exist to feed itself. Good grief what a judgement! The church I go to reaches out to missionaries with financial support and physical support all over the world, lots of them and to each other. We have survived over two years without a senior pastor and we have not…[Read more]
