Hi Irene,But Nick has told me over and over that we can't be like Him if He has an advantage. If He was born without sin then He had an advantage.

Nick,Mankind can't follow Him unless He was from the earth and like us in every way.

So, if He was not exactly like us in every way we can not follow Him. Geesh, He was from heaven, we can't follow someone who wasn't like us in every way.LU

Hi Nick,How can he show us how to live when He was not like us since He was from heaven?

Nick,So we can't be like Him as He is the vine and not the branches that we are. We can't be like Him since He is from heaven and we aren't. He had the advantage of being from heaven. How can we follow someone with an advantage like that?

Nick,So we are from heaven too? If not, we could not be like Him.

Nick,So, that is a no? He didn't pre-exist? We didn't pre-exist?

Nick,So that is a yes, He pre-existed?Did you pre-exist? Did I?

Nick,So you don't believe the Son of God pre-existed His conception within Mary?

Nick,No, it is not directly attached to roots, it has leaves and fruit coming off it a vine is directly attached to the roots, a vine has no fruit directly hanging off it. We can't be like Him if we can't be a vine.

Nick,You said once that we can be just like Him. Why can't we be a vine?

Nick,But He was the vine, we are the branches. Can we be blessed to be vines too someday with branches?

Nick,Was the Son of God only a man and nothing else?

Hi Nick,Was He only a man?

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]
