Hi All,I haven't been following this thread, but the scripture Roo quotes actually contradicts what Roo says.It doesn't say the house receives NO glory, only not as much as the builder.Jack, how can you argue a point when the scriptural proof that you are wrong is in your own post?I don't think anyone will argue that Jesus is not greater than…[Read more]

Hi Katjo,Very touching post.  After reading it, I read Psalm 22 again and just soaked it in.  All the ridicule, all the sneering, all the physical, mental and emotional pain Jesus must have felt brings tears to my eyes.  What a sacrifice for him to make.  And what a painful experience it must have also been for his Father and God to watch His bel…[Read more]

Really? I should print out many scriptures when I already know that Jehovah is the only Almighty God?You're the one saying Jesus is called Almighty God somewhere – prove it.ps, I just bumped a post for you in the prototokos thread

Also for Is 1:18Quote (Nick Hassan @ June 03 2010,12:25)Hi KJ, Origen was not an anointed man was he? Go back to the originalsHi All,Nick I agree completely.  There is only one reason for me quoting Eusebius .  Roo, Paul and WJ like to quote the newer trinitarian scholars who say that “firstborn of all creation” didn't really mean that in B…[Read more]

Hi Paul,You said:Quote Because Yeshua and the Father are both given the appelative “El Gibbor” the MikeBoll/Watchtower assertion that these two denote different categories of ontology is invalidated.So if I found a scripture where Satan was called “mighty god”, he would also automatically be part of the godhead?You said:Quote I have a challenge…[Read more]

Okay, here it is:(Zechariah 2:1-13) And I proceeded to raise my eyes and see; and, look! there was a man, and in his hand a measuring rope. 2 So I said: “Where are you going?” In turn he said to me: “To measure Jerusalem, in order to see what her breadth amounts to and what her length amounts to.” 3 And, look! the angel who was speaking with me w…[Read more]

Okay, but it better be good!

Hi Dennison,You said:Quote God is perfect correct? that means though everything is possible for him, he will only choose whats perfect, flawless.  he will take nothing, and make it perfect.  So God cannot make anything that is imperfect?  He chose the nation of Israel as His people, and they weren't perfect or flawless.You said:Quote If Jesus im…[Read more]

Bump for JackQuote (Kangaroo Jack @ June 02 2010,05:00)The name “Masterful God” is used of YHWH alone! Therefore, Jesus is JHWH!Apparently not, Roo.  If it is used of Jesus, then it can't possibly be exclusive to YHVH, right?When is El Shadday used of Jesus?peace and love,mike

Quote (gollamudi @ June 04 2010,20:54)If you believe that there is only one God where is the question of calling others God or a god? If at all there is one God the title 'God' should be applicable to him alone and to no one else. This is where I differ from most of the JWs, Arians and preexistence believers and those who believe in personal evil…[Read more]

Quote (JustAskin @ June 05 2010,10:28)Romans 13-4, states:Jesus, '…declared to be the Son of God (Begotten) with power accordingto the Spirit of Holiness by resurrection from the dead'Hi JA,And John 3:16 makes it pretty clear he was begotten before he was raised. Who was Jesus before he was begotten? And if he was God's Son, how did he…[Read more]

Hi Kathi,You said:Quote Would God be 'almighty' if He could not save His children?  The Father cannot save His children apart from the Son.Are you really implying that the Father CAN'T save His children without Jesus?  Wow!  He is the Almighty and the God of gods, including Jesus as one of those gods, but He NEEDS Jesus to fulfill His purpose?  D…[Read more]

Quote (Lightenup @ June 02 2010,09:26)Actually it is translated as Jehovah Our Righteousness and is the name that Jesus will be called. There does not seem to be the verb 'is' in the Hebrew so I do not know why some translations add it, maybe they are uncomfortable with it like you seem to be. You do know that Jesus is our righteousness, right?I…[Read more]

Quote (JustAskin @ June 04 2010,11:57)God has made them into bugs that not even a nuclear winter can dessimate (They think this is good)I think a cockroach is the only “bug” thought to be able to suvive a nuclear winter. Just kidding, pagans!peace and love,mike

Hi Ed,It is sad. “Can't we all just get along?” – Rodney King I have been discoursing with Simply Forgiven lately. Although he seems to lean towards the trinity, there are no harsh words. That proves that we can disagree without personal attacks.Oh well, people will be people, including me and you.peace and love to youmike

Quote (Nick Hassan @ June 04 2010,12:11)Hi MB, Those who promote catholic theology offer the teachings of men from 100 ad onwards. The apostasy came early so best stick to scripture.Hi Nick,Why can't I seem to make anyone understand?  I don't care what Eusebius' views were.  He batted for the trinitarians, albeit reluctantly.Can you not u…[Read more]

Quote (JustAskin @ June 04 2010,11:11)How do I say, I am in agreement with Jack over 'Begotten', and have been since the beginning…Even now, I can scarcely write it, but nonetheless, it has been hovering on the tip of my fingers and I have been holding off from posting hoping not to have to say it.Hi JA,That's old news to me, brother! But if…[Read more]
