Matthew 6:9″This, then, is how you should pray: “‘Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name…………Where is our Father, Abe? Do a word search of “father in heaven”, and see how many times Jesus referred to our Father, who is IN HEAVEN.Also, how can the earth be God's footstool if the earth resides WITHIN the being of God?

I never said God isn't present in His creation, Gene. What I've said is that God's creation doesn't exist WITHIN the being of God.I realize that the spirit we have on loan from God is what animates us. I also realize that spirit goes back to Him who gave it upon our deaths.In fact, I used this example as ONE of the MANY meanings of “spirit” in a…[Read more]

Quote (2besee @ June 05 2013,20:37)Mike,Psalm 96″For the LORD is great, and greatly to be praised: he is to be feared above all gods. 5 For all the gods of the nations are idols………The Hebrew word translated as “idols” in the version you used really means “worthless”, or “worthless thing”.Does this help you at all, 2B?In the other passage you…[Read more]

Quote (4Thomas @ June 05 2013,19:25)Mike,are you a speed reader?Did you see the note he will be called the Son of the most highDaniel,So your rebuttal is that Jesus has not ALWAYS been the Son of God, but BECAME the Son of God when he was made flesh?

It's 6:30 in the evening where I'm at! You're having lunch while I'm having dinner.

Quote (4Thomas @ June 05 2013,19:19)Mike, can I please ask you some questions now?Hi Daniel,You can ask me ONE question at a time………. right after you DIRECTLY address my ONE question in the 2nd post on this page.

John 19:15 But they shouted, “Take him away! Take him away! Crucify him!” “Shall I crucify your king?” Pilate asked. “We have no king but Caesar,” the chief priests answered.Do you suppose these Jews suddenly decided to disown their God Jehovah, who they'd been calling their King for centuries? Or were they speaking EMPHATICALLY in the mome…

And I assume there are many other lords who are under the Prime lord, who himself has the King as his own lord.So if I said, “For us, there is but one lord, the King”, would I be speaking LITERALLY? Or EMPHATICALLY?

BTW Kerwin, I have no “internal conflicts” with my doctrine.

Matthew 11:27…….no one knows the Father except the Son and those to whom the Son chooses to reveal him.John 17:6I have revealed you to those whom you gave me out of the world.Now how many people know the Father?  Kerwin, can you show me a scripture that says the Holy Spirit revealed anything about the Father to Jesus?  I know of a few s…[Read more]

Quote (kerwin @ June 05 2013,12:48)Quote (mikeboll64 @ June 05 2013,06:38)Take it up with Enoch then, Kerwin.  His book implies that mankind was never originally intended to live forever in the first place, hence the gift of wives.I assume God could have let them live INDEFINITELY – depending on how things went.  But mankind wasn't created i…[Read more]

Quote (2besee @ June 05 2013,17:15)Yes Mike,You and terraricca have a lot in common.Thank you, 2B.

Quote (2besee @ June 04 2013,04:33)Mike 1.  How do you understand Jesus as Lord?2.  Do you communicate with Jesus as you would a trusted, loved, and very close person?1.  Jesus is the highest master I have, next to his own master, Jehovah.2.  Yes.Now, can you DIRECTLY answer some of the points in my posts?  

Quote (abe @ June 04 2013,21:57)Quote (mikeboll64 @ June 03 2013,18:09)How do you personally DEFINE those words?  What is YOUR definition of “el”, “elohim”, “theos”, and “god”?Hi Mike,God of all flesh.    Father of the Spirits.Okay. Let's see if that definition fits some scriptures:2 Corinthians 4:4The god of this age has blinded the minds of un…[Read more]

Quote (2besee @ June 04 2013,20:25)Mike,I see the word that was with God and was God as being the ONLY ONE God as I am certain John also knew.So you believe it makes sense for John to say the ONLY ONE God was WITH the ONLY ONE God in the beginning?   Hmmmmm……………  Well, that explains a lot about you, 2B.BTW, I am exactly as polytheistic a…[Read more]

Quote (942767 @ June 04 2013,19:50)Hi Mike:I do not call my boss at work “lord”……When we obey his Word, we will be obeying our masters after the flesh.No Marty,I don't believe many of us today call our boss “lord”. But in Paul's day, many Christians DID have earthly lords along with their heavenly lords Jesus and Jehovah, right?So if I was a…[Read more]

Should we be surprised, Pierre?  After all, we are dealing with four people who believe so many of the same unscriptural things, right?  So why then would we be surprised that all four of them also agree that all of creation exists INSIDE OF the God who created it?Abe keeps posting scriptures that say how God can metaphorically be “in” us, and a…[Read more]
