    Gene,

    you said to Nick: Yes to us “there is but “ONE” GOD, ONE MEDERATOR BETWEEN THAT GOD AND MAN “THE MAN” JESUS THE CHRIST. How simple, how clear, how can anyone misunderstand that?

    That “man” Jesus Christ is the Lord of lords, Jehovah our Righteousness. It was fitting for Him to be the mediator between the Father and the creation since He…[Read more]

    Yes the SPIRIT OF THE SON (gal4.6) is from eternity.

    In order for that to be true, the Son who possesses that spirit would have to be from eternity as well. The Lord of lords, Jehovah our Righteousness, was from eternity past.

    LU…When Jesus the saints will be resurected and he and the saints will by the spirit of God establish his kingdom on this earth, and at the end of the thousand year rule, Jesus turns over the kingdom to God the Father, Just as scripture say, and Jesus himself will become subject to the kingdom just as everyone else will be.

    Nick,

    you asked:

    Does God call Himself a BEING or is that from theology?

    His name I AM declares that He exists which is a form of the state of “being” verbs. It is not due to theology. You can call Him a being, Nick.

    N: It was s going too far to say Jesus is God- he made no such claim.

    Did He claim to be Lord of lords, Nick? Not directly. Is it…[Read more]

    Nick you asked:

    But you do agree it will be handed back to the Father?

    From what I can tell, from the time of Jesus’ return to the Father from the dead, the Son was given all reign over everything except the Father in order to destroy all enemy powers including death. The Father “turned over the reigns” to the Son so to speak. The Father had the…[Read more]

    Nick,

    you asked:

    What made you think from what I said that the KINGDOM was not everlasting?

    You words Nick:

    “So his kingdom is not everlasting in the future either.”

    you said:

    A Nick made theology perhaps?

    Nick,

    you said:

    Neither “lord of lords” nor “king of kings “are necessarily exclusive terms.

    Well, put it to the test..Jesus is the everlasting Lord and the everlasting King, His kingdom is not of this world, He is the Lord of the Sabboth, He is the Lord of all, He and the Father receive the same glory and honor and praise.

    Nick,

    Ephesians 4:4 4There is one body and one Spirit, just as also you were called in one hope of your calling; 5one Lord, one faith, one baptism, 6one God and Father of all who is over all and through all and in all.

    This is what I believe.

    One body = the true church

    One Spirit = the Holy Spirit

    One Lord = Jesus

    One baptism = the baptism…[Read more]

    Hi miia,

    I was glad to see that parachute open…wow! Anyway, I tend to give people the benefit of the doubt especially when they boldly declare their faith in the LORD. Not only is the astronaut a Christian declaring his faith but also lived on the space station and sailed the seas in the navy. He must be courageous to be in the Navy for 30…[Read more]

    Nick,

    That would be a good case for studying what those early servants were teaching!

    Mike,

    Jehovah the Lord of lords, i.e., the Only begotten Son is NOT an angel in type. He took part in creating the angels. Col 1. If it weren’t for Him, there would be no angels. He and the Father are the “us”.

    Mike,

    you asked:

    What exactly were you agreeing with? 🙂  Anna didn’t actually say anything.

    This is what I was agreeing with…she has only made two comments, this was her first. You must have missed it.

    “No such thing as flat earth.”-Anna

    And yes, I did mean round as in spherical, not flat and round obviously.

    Hi Nick,

    you said:

    When Jesus Christ walked in Israel the Jews cried out that God has visited his people.

    They were right because God was in him reconciling the world to Himself.

    Yes, you can see that the God of gods is never separate from the Lord of lords, Nick. The God of gods, the Father, was in the Messiah who is Jehovah the Lord of lords.…[Read more]

    Mike,

    I believe you violate these verses when you say there are other gods “by design”:

    Deuteronomy 4:35
    “To you it was shown that you might know that the LORD, He is God; there is no other besides Him.

    Deuteronomy 32:39
    ‘See now that I, I am He, And there is no god besides Me; It is I who put to death and give life. I have wounded and it is I…[Read more]

    Mike,

    Jehovah, God Almighty is the God of gods and the Lord of lords, both the Father and the Son. When the Almighty God is seen by men, it is the Son, our Lord of lords (Jehovah our Righteousness.) No man has seen the Father.

    Hi Mike,

    you said:

    I assume they are included in Psalm 8:5, Psalm 82:1, etc. Why, do you think only certain spirit sons of God are gods, while others are not? Surely you don’t think that Satan, Ashtoreth, Chemosh, and Milcom – who are all called gods by Jehovah (each of the last three He calls “elohim”) – are really gods, but faithful servants…

    Hi Mike,

    Yes, that’s right… except that not all of them fell. Many of them like Michael and Gabriel remain faithful to their Creator.

    I do not recall Michael or Gabriel being referred to as a god. What scripture specifically tell us that?

    Hi Gene,

    Good questions. You asked me to address this:

    Lu….If God were to speak through you, would that make you a God? God said this, “God is “not” a man, that he should lie, nor a “son of man” that he should repent. Jesus on the other hand said he was a “son of man” over 50 times.

    No, God speaking through us would not make me or anyone a God. O…[Read more]
