Quote (terraricca @ June 06 2011,23:42)do you see it says age to age this is the oldies translation right ?Thanks Pierre,And for digging up the Micah 5:4 post too!    Keith knows exactly what scripture we were heatedly discussing before he had to take some time off.  If he doesn't want to own up to that, then that's on him, not me.  I believe it…[Read more]

Quote (kerwin @ June 06 2011,22:46)You error in believing what is written as what is written is rhema and what you should believe is logos.Hi Kerwin,You err in telling me that I “error”.  Seriously though, “rhema” and “logos” are two Greek words that mean “word”………….that's all.  Don't buy into that Paladin crap, as I've shown him to be m…[Read more]

Quote (Lightenup @ June 06 2011,22:45)Mike,you said:Quote From our own point in time, we could rightfully say that Abraham was from “owlam” and his son Isaac was from “owlam”, right?What part of those two statements would tell our common sense that the “days of antiquity” that Abraham was from must be EARLIER days of antiquity than the days of…[Read more]

Quote (terraricca @ June 06 2011,17:17)Phil 3:12 Not that I have already obtained all this, or have already been made perfect, but I press on to take hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold of me. Phil 3:13 Brothers, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what…[Read more]

Quote (Tim Kraft @ June 06 2011,16:01)If, as per your last line, you believe that you are going to be judged by the works and deeds that are changed in your life, that your new views and actions must be implemented in our faith TO BECOME HOLY……you are lost from God. Believing in your own good works to become holy is death not life.Revelation…[Read more]

Yeah, I like that one.We KNOW that he returned TO the actual PERSON of God in heaven, so the way that it's worded makes it clear that he also came FROM the actual PERSON of God in heaven. You did good, give yourself a pat on the back……….or a high five or something.

Brilliant Pierre! I added it to our list on page 1. The “returning to” is the key. If Jesus “returned to” God as a sentient person, then it is clear that the “from God” also refers to him as a sentient person.peace and love,mike

Hi Tim,I don't agree that God is everywhere, or in everything, or that everything is in Him.  God created things that are separate beings from Him.  God is in heaven, while His creations are everywhere.Btw, what in your opinion, is holding you back from transfiguring?mike

Quote (Paladin @ June 06 2011,09:03)“you” in Greek is “su.”Greek “Seautou” translates into English reflexive pronoun “yourself.”Figure it out.  Okay, I fixed it.  Will you answer it now?But okay, tell me what the first use of “para” in 17:5 signifies.And now, Father, glorify me WITH YOURSELF………..Does the first use coincide with Luke 1:30?  …[Read more]

Hey all,The name is Jason BeDuhn, not “DeBuhn”.  And the fact that he admitted the NWT was biased also in certain verses just goes that much farther to prove his claim that it was an unbiased research project he performed.He is not a JW, nor has he ever been, yet still came to the conclusion that the NWT was the most accurate translation of the…[Read more]

I'm so relieved that you are okay, Firecracker! Praise Jah!

I like that one HM!

Quote you are not trinitarian, not binitarian etc… but what has happened? Your making friends with the teachers of false doctrine. All holding hands together because it FEELS good. Hi Shimmer,I'm glad you've finally come to terms with the thing you've scolded me for before.    I did not come to Heaven Net to bring peace, but a sword.  If so…[Read more]

Hi Keith,Although Pierre has addressed your question confidently and scripturally, I will wait until you answer my points/questions from the third and fourth posts on this page before addressing yours.You seem to have blown them off completely.mike

Btw Paul, I didn't take your question, “Which murderers?” seriously.  I thought for sure you were joking at first.“It is important to see that the Trinity was not simply something that was accepted right away, and many people were persecuted for maintaining even the slightest disagreement. It was only through much force, fear, and political…[Read more]
