Mike: Ed, is it possible that this “light” that came into the world was Jesus?

Ed:  Of course MIke!

“And he (YeHoVaH) said, It is a light thing that thou shouldest be my servant to raise up the tribes of Jacob, and to restore the preserved of Israel: I will also give thee (Jesus) for a light to the Gentiles, that thou mayest be my salvatio…[Read more]

LU:  The Father identified someone OTHER THAN HIMSELF in Hebrews 1 as the LORD who:

“You, LORD, in the beginning laid the foundation of the earth…

Look at how Hebrews 1 begins…

1 In the past God spoke to our ancestors through the prophets at many times and in various ways, 2 but in these last days he has spoken to us through his Son, wh…[Read more]

Gene: Carmel……pure blasphemy, The Father does not “obey” the son,  but the Son obeys the Father,  if you don’t understand that it is completely useless to even speak to you about this subject. Because God grants our requests,  in no way means we are “equal ” to him,  the same thing applies to Jesus and disciples and all others to.

LU: I do believe that the Apostles in Acts 4 identified Jesus as the Branch spoken about in Jeremiah who was to be called YHVH our Righteousness.

The Apostles in Acts 4 identified Jesus as the holy servant of the one who created the heavens, the earth, the sea, and everything in them.

LU: Do you believe that the apostles of Acts 4 claim that by…[Read more]

Berean:  Genesis 1:26

The truth about THIS verse IS That God speak To HIS SON ALL SIMPLY. BECAUSE THE SON IS HIMSELF THE ONE WHO IN THE BIGINNING WAS WITH GOD AND WAS GOD ….

All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.

Berean, how many scriptures are there that include the words “God created” or “J…[Read more]

Berean: Mike

BELIEVE YOU GLORIFY THE FATHER BY LOWERING THE SON, BECAUSE YOU LOWER THE SON, …. ???
CERTAINLY NOT
YOU DO NOT GLORIFY NEITHER FATHER OR SON ….
WHO ARE YOU GLORIFYING THEN ????

In what way have I “lowered” the Son?

Scripture says son of the Most High, so I say son of the Most High.

Scripture says holy servant of God, so I say…[Read more]

Mike: Who did John the Baptizer come as a witness to?

Ed:  Christ

God has had many christs, but I’ll assume you meant Jesus.

John 1

6There was a man sent from God whose name was John. 7He came as a witness to testify concerning that light, so that through him all might believe. 8He himself was not the light; he came only as a witness to the l…[Read more]

Gene: Berean and LU…….MIKE , has presented it right, just as Jodi and I have, Jesus is and was always sub-servant to God the Father, always was and always will be.  “The son of man can do”NOTHING” of  “HIMSELF”.  Saying,  “I “always do those things that pleases the Father”.  And again, “I have come to do “thy” will, O God.”,  not “HIS” WILL, but t…[Read more]

Berean: I beleive That THE SON OF GOD HAD IN HIMSELF AS HIS FATHER,THE LIFE( JOHN 1) AND POWER TO CREATE THE WORLD(COLOSSIANS 2:16)

And I beleive Also That the Son do all things in communion with His FATHER( all in The gospel OF John WE see That)

Berean, you could say that about absolutely any being who has ever existed.  With faith the size…[Read more]

LU: That seems to be what you do with creation. The Father gets all the credit for creation, you say because the believers acknowledge YHVH as the creator of heaven and earth in their praise. Do you think that they are saying that Jesus should not be acknowledged also as the creator of heaven and earth? Do you think it is possible that they…[Read more]

Berean:

all things were created by him, and for him:

All things were created THROUGH him. “By him” is an older English way of saying “through him”, or “by means of him”.  For example,

Hebrews 1:1 KJV

God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets…

Of course you know that this means God s…[Read more]

Jodi, 👍

Berean, all things came FROM God; all things came THROUGH Jesus.  He who creates is one, and he through whom the thing is created is another.

Hi Gene, thanks for the comment.  I hope all is well with you and yours too.

Berean:
But unto the Son he saith   I  AND  II
 
HE = GOD THE FATHER

Hi Berean, did you know that since the NT Bible writers did not use punctuation marks, they often wrote in run-on sentences connected by the word “and”?  Here’s just one quick example…

Jodi: 9 Thou hast loved righteousness, and hated iniquity; therefore God (Jesus), even thy God (Father), hath anointed thee (Jesus) with the oil of gladness above thy fellows (prophets).

I agree with your assessment of Hebrews 1.  The only part I understand differently is above, where I think both of the “Gods” are the Father, as in, “Therefore G…[Read more]

Ed, my last post just asked a simple question.  Here it is again…

Who did John the Baptizer come as a witness to?

Surely that question is not a “long bloated post”, is it?  Surely you could just answer the question instead of diverting, right?

Gene, a PERSON rides a horse in Revelation.  That PERSON has a one of his many names written on his robe.  That name is “The Word of God”.  In Revelation, John 1, and 1 John 1, “the Word” is not just a spoken word, but the name/title of a PERSON.  In John 1, this PERSON called “the Word” became flesh and dwelled among man on earth -and John the…[Read more]

Ed, I did a lengthy post a while ago on how the Word most certainly is Jesus.  You didn’t say a word to refute it.  But let’s start here…

Who did John the Baptizer come as a witness to? Whatever your answer, that person is the Word according to John 1.  Who became flesh and dwelled on earth with the glory of an only-begotten from the Fa…[Read more]

Proclaimer: If you are qualitatively something it doesn’t mean that you are that thing.

It means you could be that thing or like that thing.
So then the Word could be a god, or like a god.  Got it.

Proclaimer: For example, I am a man. Yes that means I am a man in nature and not the Man which was Adam.
I made that exact point in the video us…[Read more]
