Mike,

That’s a lot of questions all at once. For now, I will address this video of the eclipse of yours.

you asked:

As you can see, the moon is above me. It is setting in the west. The sun is about to rise behind me in the east. I want to know what is lighting the bottom of the moon really bright, and what is causing the shadow on the top of…

Jodi, you are very good at defending that Jesus was a man according to the flesh…no one here disputes that. But He is also the Lord of lords of the OT who’s name is Jehovah along with His Father.

1. In Zechariah 12 JEHOVAH is speaking (verses 1 and 4). In verse 10 Jehovah says, “They shall look upon ME whom they have pierced.” This can refer to…

Gene, I didn’t suggest you were arrogant, I proved it. I told you that it was NOT because you disagree with me but your last post proves that you didn’t comprehend that I said that. Then I explained why I discerned that you were. Go back and read it. That is a ministry of reproof, Gene, meant to strengthen you if you are wise. Let it strengthen…[Read more]

Nick,

I asked you this, I didn’t answer it for you.

“After reading that, Nick, do you think that you are following Jesus?”

Why don’t you answer that for me?

Hi Nick,

Luke 14

26“If anyone comes to Me, and does not hate his own father and mother and wife and children and brothers and sisters, yes, and even his own life, he cannot be My disciple. 27“Whoever does not carry his own cross and come after Me cannot be My disciple.

After reading that, Nick, do you think that you are following Jesus?

Nick,

you asked:

So where does it say that Jesus desires our love?

I just gave you two verses that you can deduce that from.

John 14:21

“He who has My commandments and keeps them is the one who loves Me; and he who loves Me will be loved by My Father, and I will love him and will disclose Myself to him.”

Matt 10:37

   37“He who loves fa…

Nick,

Do you think that Jesus desires our love after reading these two verses? Do you think that Jesus is saying that you are to love him as much as you love your father and mother, sons and daughters or more than your father and mother, sons and daughters?

John 14:21

“He who has My commandments and keeps them is the one who loves Me; and he…[Read more]

Nick,

Are these two statements the same or very different:

Jesus needs our love.

Jesus desires our love.

Nick, I don’t think that I said that the Son of God needs our love. Can you show me where I said that Jesus “needs” our love?

Hi Nick,

you asked:

When did our Master demand that we love him?

He doesn’t demand that we love him.

you said:

We serve a master who expects more commitment evidence than just professed love.

Do you think that I do not know that?

Mike,

you said:

Now just think about that for a while… “The moon is also not above their heads…”

We see it up in the sky above us when it’s under our feet?

Mike, Mike, Mike…the sun is behind the X-men, the moon is IN FRONT of the X-men. The stars are above their heads. If it wasn’t that way, there would be no eclipse.

Nick,

1If I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but do not have love, I have become a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal. 2If I have the gift of prophecy, and know all mysteries and all knowledge; and if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing. 3And if I give all my possessions to feed the poor, and…[Read more]

Gene,

you asked:

So now, because i disagree with you i am arrogant? Is that the way you view people who disagree with you. Jesus told us to have Salt in yourselves “and” have peace.

Actually I do not know why you are arrogant, maybe you can tell me. I certainly do not view people who disagree with me as arrogant just because they disagree wit…[Read more]

Gene,

you said:

So which hing on a door is more important the upper or the lower, are they not “BOTH” EQUALLY IMPORTANT?

No Gene, not according to Jesus. Read what He thinks about it:

Jesus declared, “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’ 38This is the first and greatest commandment.

Did you…[Read more]

Hi Nick,

I didn’t say we aren’t to obey the Son.

Which is better:

1. Your son obeys you but doesn’t love you.

2. Your son loves you and therefore obeys you.

Mike,

You said this regarding your jumping jack funnel circles:

Okay, there is no way the umbra (or penumbra for that matter) can be anywhere but at their feet. The shadow of the earth cannot possibly be above their heads, as they are all standing at the terminator line, where light and dark meet on the earth. So because of that, there is no way…

Here ya go Mike and Dig and t8,

Look at the moon’s path and note how it goes above the ecliptic plane and then below the ecliptic plane (the white circle) and then back again for a full circuit (which happens approximately during a 28 day period). The total lunar eclipses happen only when the moon meets the ecliptic plane AND happens to meet it…[Read more]

Hi MIke,

Have you had your dinner yet? Poor guy, you are working so much and then you come on here spending hours trying to “help” us. You want to defend God’s word and that is admirable. Honestly Mike, I understand why the moon eclipses from the top down and from the bottom up with just looking into it during these last few days. This really is…[Read more]

Jodi,

You take great strides to show that Jesus was the promised unblemished Lamb, a promised man, but we already know that.

What you do not get is that the unblemished Lamb was the Shepherd beforehand. Jesus owned the sheep before He became a sheep. He was Lord over the sheep.

Also what you confuse is the way that Jesus was the only begotten…[Read more]

Gene,

Isaiah 53 has a true perspective that can correct yours. Please take some time to read the chapter…take all the time you want.

10But the LORD was pleased
To crush Him, putting Him to grief;
If He would render Himself as a guilt offering,
            He will see His offspring,
            He will prolong His days,
