You are right Kathi.  I found it on the “God among gods” thread.Quote Quote (mikeboll64 @ Mar. 21 2011,18:38)Aren't you guys reading the actual question?  There is no available answer EXCEPT FOR “YES”.  Because CLEARLY, ACCORDING TO THE SCHOLARS I QUOTED, “a god” IS a GRAMMATICAL POSSIBILITY, even though Harris clearly thinks that the the “a go…[Read more]

Quote (Lightenup @ April 05 2011,08:32)Well Mike,Like I said, the person who voted 'only Keith' is either guilty of slander or confusion.  If quilty of slander then also quilty of cowardliness and ungodly conduct.  If confusion without cowardliness, then maybe they will come forward to discuss it with me.  If confusion WITH cowardliness, then th…[Read more]

Hi Keith,I've answered your first post via pm, so as not to diffuse the point of this thread.  To your second point I say, don't work too hard.  In other words, don't bother listing a million scriptures to flood the thread as you so often do.  I will just ignore them and keep going back to the bolded question from my second post until you ad…[Read more]

Quote (WorshippingJesus @ April 04 2011,09:16)MikeYou owe me an appology for saying I am lying just because I disagree with your interpretation of the verse.There are many scriptures that are a matter of “interpretation”.  This is not one of them, as even Jack confirmed by his response to your answer.This scripture does NOT say “one God and Lord,…[Read more]

Also boys, look at the poll results.  I wouldn't take your trinitarian biased polls here too seriously.  Because it seems you guys all vote, and not many of the others here do.  This poll should have another 10-15 votes, don't you think?  Just sayin'.mike

Quote (WorshippingJesus @ April 04 2011,14:04)Sorry that scripture doesn't say what you imply.That scripture only proves that Paul sees Jesus as God and that the Revelation came from God and not man.       Look at your own words, Keith.  Quote (WorshippingJesus @ April 04 2011,14:04)Try again by giving us a scripture that says Jesus is some oth…[Read more]

Quote (Kangaroo Jack Jr. @ April 04 2011,14:10)The scriptures you give imply nothing of the sort. Paul said that we will bear the image of the heavenly MAN (1 Cor. 15). Jesus is not man as we know man to be now but He is still MAN only of a higher order.The word “man” is not in the Greek, Jack.mike

Well, the words say “one God, the Father”. Then they go on to tell how all things came FROM Him, right?Then Paul list another, as confirmed by his use of the word “AND”. And all things are not said to be FROM this other one, but THROUGH him.This one THROUGH whom all things came is obviously not the Father FROM whom all things came, right? Can…[Read more]

Quote (Kangaroo Jack Jr. @ April 04 2011,16:24)Mike,The divine may become human but the human may not become divine. Philippians 2 is CLEAR that God became human. It takes faith to believe it which you don't have. WJ and I are trying to rescue you from the lake of ifre.Hi Jack,I appreciate you and Keith's concern for my eternal soul.  I too, am…[Read more]

Quote (terraricca @ April 04 2011,14:25)how is it wen you are invited to show other scholars that may have taken a different view and see what they say  BUT YOU DID NOT PRESENT ANY why??Hi Pierre,Let me catch you up to speed on this.  Neither the Hebrew nor the Greek languages use the indefinite article “a”.  So any of the 8432 times you read “a…[Read more]

Quote (Lightenup @ April 04 2011,13:46)You are right Jack, this poll is unnecessary and I'm sure Mike will see that…we all make mistakes.  One thing about polls as you can see with this one, is that you can vote/lie anonymously and no will know who you are and you can be a coward by doing that if that was done intentionally.  True Christians d…[Read more]

Quote (WorshippingJesus @ April 04 2011,12:19)Mike didn't miss it and I will show every one how it went down in my next post.Mike owes me an appology for accusing me of being dishonest and lying. He wants to give me a tile when I honestly answer his post yet he can call me a liar and not get a tile.Watch and see how this goes down.Keith, I'll be…[Read more]

Quote (Lightenup @ April 04 2011,10:19) I don't think Mike saw the post where you admitted that according to the scholars' quote, they said that it was grammatically possible. But if he did finally answer with the HONEST answer of “YES”, doesn't that make all of his “NO” answers DISHONEST?  Or am I still in the Twilight Zone?Quote (Lightenup @…[Read more]
