Quote (david @ Mar. 30 2014,19:52)I think perhaps the enlightenment you speak of has gotten to you.Notice how I put “enlightenment” in quotes every time I used it.I don't consider what we humans have become to be an “enlightened” version of our ancestors. I believe most things are much worse today – and wish I could have lived back then.

Ahhh…….. It seems you and I agree, David.  You can notice a little “standoffishness” in my last post – because I was under the impression that YOU were here to preach to us about how “bad” slavery is!My ambiguous statement was supposed to convey:  EVEN IF I personally found slavery appalling, I sure wouldn't condemn God for condoning that p…[Read more]

Quote (david @ Mar. 30 2014,19:40)And that is why in the hot seat on this with t8 (who doesn't yet know it exists) I am arguing that forced slavery is good.  He stated that forced slavery is bad.I also haven't seen the thread, David.  I'll try to follow the discussion.  Between you and t8, they are always at least enjoyable – and usually very co…[Read more]

Quote (Nick Hassan @ Mar. 31 2014,18:50)Hi MB, The Son of God is Jesus Christ, reborn as God alone's son at the JordanSo the “Son” in verse 8 is JESUS CHRIST, right? And his own God, Jehovah, called him “O God”, right?Yet you insist there literally exists only ONE God, Nick. So if Jesus isn't that ONE God, how do you explain that he is called “O…[Read more]

Quote (Wakeup @ Mar. 31 2014,18:44)Mike b.Your word is yours alone Mike.Blah, blah, blah, diversion, Wakeup.YOU told me that God called the being next to him “O God”.Now, if that “being next to him” isn't HIMSELF, then God was calling a DIFFERENT BEING “O God”, right?

Quote (Nick Hassan @ Mar. 31 2014,18:46)Hi MB,As Heb 1 says it is spoken to the SON of God.What's his name, Nick?

Quote (carmel @ Mar. 31 2014,13:05)GOD NEITHER COULD BE SEEN BY HIS HUMAN CREATURES, NOR COULD LIVE WITHIN HUMAN CREATURES WITHOUT A MEDIATOR SPIRIT THE WORDSO IT IS THROUGH THE WORD THAT GOD LIVES WITHIN YOU!So then “The Word” isn't actually “God Himself”, right Charles?If “God” cannot be seen by human creatures, then the mediator God sent must…[Read more]

Quote (Wakeup @ Mar. 31 2014,18:38)MikeB.God was speaking to the being next to him.Calling him GOD.So God (Jehovah) was not calling HIMSELF “O God”, but instead calling a DIFFERENT BEING “O God”?  Is that correct, Wakeup?  Who is this DIFFERENT BEING?  What's his NAME?

Quote (Nick Hassan @ Mar. 31 2014,18:30)Hi MB, Our God can speak of others as gods.I can glean from your answer that you know the “O God” in verse 8 is NOT the God OF Jesus.So who is it then?

Quote (jammin @ Mar. 31 2014,06:20)i did not say that jesus was not God on earth.Of course you did, jammin.You told me that God doesn't have any limitations, and that anyone who DOES have limitations is not God.Then you told me that Jesus DID have limitations on earth.So all I have to do is add the things YOU SAID together to come up with a…[Read more]

Quote (Nick Hassan @ Mar. 31 2014,18:20)Hi MB,Heb 1″ Jesus spoke of Him in Jn 20 God, thy God “refers to the God of JesusJn 20 17, ‘…I ascend to My Father and your Father, and My God and your God.’Very good, Nick! You get a gold star!You are correct that “thy God” refers to the God OF Jesus.Now, who does the phrase “O God” refer to in verse 8?…[Read more]

Quote (Nick Hassan @ Mar. 30 2014,23:21)Hi MB, Should we comb the bible looking for gods when we have one God?Nick,Gods are mentioned all throughout the scriptures. The Most High of them all is Jehovah. But Jehovah couldn't possibly be the MOST HIGH god if there didn't exist other less high gods as well.Jehovah couldn't be the God OF gods if…[Read more]

Since there wasn't an answer in that last post, here is the question once again, Wakeup:WAS that Word of God ALREADY a different being BEFORE God spoke him out of His mouth?

Quote (Nick Hassan @ Mar. 30 2014,15:51)Hi MB, God did not send another god.But Isaiah 9:6 and Hebrews 1:8 DIRECTLY CONTRADICT the words you say, Nick.Is that okay with you? Are you okay preaching things that are a DIRECT CONTRADICTION to what the scriptures say?

Quote (Nick Hassan @ Mar. 30 2014,15:44)Hi MB,For us there is one God. But you wish to speak of the other so called gods such as men and angels and lumps of wood and stone?Why should we focus on your distractions.You are the one trying to distract, Nick.They are simple questions that anyone with a Bible can answer. So why can't you answer them?…[Read more]

Quote (Nick Hassan @ Mar. 30 2014,14:47)Jesus was never another godCould you tell me WHO was called “god” in Isaiah 9:6 and Hebrews 1:8, Nick? (This one was also called “son” in both of those scriptures. Who is it?)
