But Nick,You and I agree that the Spirit is never a separate thing from God. That is not the case with the literal words of God, nor with Jesus, who is called “The Word of God”.There are some similarities – but those only take you so far. In the end, it is clear that while the Holy Spirit remains endlessly connected to God Himself, the Word did…[Read more]

Quote (Gene Balthrop @ Mar. 02 2014,12:13)…..it was the same thing with Jesus, God the FATHER was speaking “THROUGH” HIM, and that never made Him those Words himself, or a God of any kind either.I've never thought that Jesus was any of the literal words God spoke, Gene.Do you realize that the King of Abyssinian had a spokesman called “The Word…[Read more]

Quote (Nick Hassan @ Mar. 03 2014,16:42)Hi MB, God sends His Spirit. He pours out His Spirit. But His Spirit is never separate from Him.Agreed. That is why Jehovah's Spirit cannot “come back to Him” – because it was never separate from Him in the first place.That is also why God cannot be WITH His Spirit at any time.His Spirit is a part of His…[Read more]

Quote (Gene Balthrop @ Mar. 02 2014,11:29)Mike…………None of those is talking about the WILL itself being FREE , it is describing the Liberty to express and exercising our Wills without restraint>  Think about it.Gene,If we have the liberty to express our will without restraint, then we have a free will.
