I agree with everything in that last post, Wakeup.  But that means that I was right, and Jesus, as the Word of God on earth, had HIS OWN will, right?

Quote (Gene Balthrop @ Mar. 12 2014,09:44)Mike…….. the LORD and His Spirit make up ONE Living being.

Quote (jammin @ Mar. 12 2014,07:52)wallace said Christ is God and you dont agree with that.Wallace sensibly taught us that the construction of John 1:1 keeps us from identifying the Word with God.

Quote (Nick Hassan @ Mar. 11 2014,20:45)Hi MB, Jesus was conceived. God was never conceivedAgreed. But here's what I asked you:Do you believe that John 1:1 teaches us that the ENTIRE BEING OF GOD ALMIGHTY was with THE ENTIRE BEING OF GOD ALMIGHTY? YES or NO?What is your answer?

Before creation, there was only the soon-to-be Creator.There was only Jehovah God at first.

It is Christ who is meant in John 12. Christ is also one of the people who have been called “the arm of the Lord”. (Cyrus, for example, was another one.)Nick, your idea that John was talking about the Holy Spirit doesn't even fit the context. Have you considered that?

If you think “and the Word was God” is the only viable translation of the Greek words in John 1:1, perhaps you should do a little more research.Even the Trinitarian scholars will tell you that it's absurd to think the Word was “the person of God” in John 1:1. First of all, John's selective use of the definite article prohibits it. And secondly,…[Read more]

Okay, “NO” and “NO” answer the second and third question.What about the first one? Who does the word “thou” refer to in Psalm 104:30? Because if you can answer that question, then you'll know who exactly did the creating. The means by which He did it is not quite as important as knowing WHO did it.

Quote (WorshippingJesus @ Mar. 11 2014,10:14)Mike I noticed you did not meet my challenge and show me one of the over 150 scriptures I posted that do not show Jesus as our source of all things.

Quote (WorshippingJesus @ Mar. 11 2014,09:10)Why would Paul use such language? He was a Hebrew of the Hebrew and yet considered Jesus as his source for all.
