Quote (david @ April 03 2013,22:41)Jehovah– 42 times, unquestionably called “almighty.”Jesus–in revelation, he might be called this………..Can there be more than one “Almighty” god?  Doesn't “Almighty” mean “the mightiest of the mighty”?   How can there be two mightiests?

Quote (Colter @ April 04 2013,05:06)Quote (mikeboll64 @ April 04 2013,13:47)So in that one statement, Jesus accredited the scriptures while exposing the imperfections of the priests, right?Mike,True, you are correct that Jesus excoriated the Pharisees who were hiding behind the scripture.You mean:  True, you are correct that Jesus excoriated the…[Read more]

Quote (Lightenup @ April 04 2013,13:39)I asked you when did YHVH do the event listed in Isa 63, not when did He bring victory to a confrontation.I wasn't trying to be flippant, Kathi. I just don't know that the event described in Is 63 IS an “end of times” event.There is similar “IN THOSE DAYS” language all throughout the OT, and it usually…[Read more]

What is wrong with YHWH if that is his real name.I have shown you but…[Read more]

Quote (Lightenup @ April 04 2013,13:39)Edom and Bozrah represent Babylon and Babylon represents Rome, if I remember correctly.This is the first I'm hearing of such a thing. WHO SAYS Edom and Bozrah represent Babylon/Rome?

jammin,I worship the God OF Jesus as my God, since Jesus said that our God was also his God.You worship the God of Jesus PLUS other “persons”.Which one of us is aligned with what Jesus actually taught?

Quote (jammin @ April 03 2013,03:40)so im telling to you what is written in the bible.i can read word for word that Christ and his father have the same nature and that is nature God.Where can you read in the Bible that “God” is a nature?Having the nature OF “God” is not the same as saying “God” IS a “nature”.God is a person, jammin. He (not…[Read more]

Quote (kerwin @ April 04 2013,19:48)T,Mike has not shown a scripture. What?  I went through every verse in John 1, and made a BIG list that showed how the same things were said about Jesus in other scriptures.  How can you say I have not shown scripture?   (Pierre is talking about you putting your “the Word is the Holy Spirit Son of God” sc…[Read more]

Quote (kerwin @ April 04 2013,12:35)Mike,Quote Kerwin, are YOU one of Jesus' “children”?  YES or NO?I hope so but Jehovah is the Judge.I was going to say that you must also then be a child of David as well. And then I was going to ask you how that can be since you are not Jewish. But then I remembered that God made Abraham the father of many…[Read more]

Quote (4Thomas @ April 04 2013,18:02)So if all your understandings come from an honest understanding of scripture – where does the scripture teach that the *Word* was an angel…….Mike, how can I convince you with scripture – if you can’t convince me – that you use scripture to believe Jesus is an angel?Galatians 4:14Instead, you welcome…[Read more]

Quote (kerwin @ April 04 2013,18:32)Mike, LU, and all;Who or what is “the stump of Jesse”?I think “stump”, in this case, conveys the same idea as “roots”. The forthcoming “Branch” will come from the stump of Jesse, (in other words), from his roots.Both statements, IMO, are saying that this Branch will come from the family line that also bore…[Read more]

I believe this refers to the Father and the Son who are both involved in the creation of Jesse.Isaiah 11:1A shoot will come up from the stump of Jesse; from his roots a Branch will bear fruit.Kathi, a Branch will…[Read more]

Quote (Ed J @ April 04 2013,02:06)Hi Mike,I wasn't asking you to diminish the meaning of Isaiah 44:8.

THERE ARE NO OTHER GODS2. a ruler ………………………. there are other rulers3. a…[Read more]

Quote (Lightenup @ April 04 2013,12:49)Can you admit that the Shema statement alone as originally written, does not give you enough information to decide if YHVH is one person or one set?What?  Kathi, I thought you believed the Father and Son were two completely different Almighty God beings, who worked together as a unity.  Are you now s…[Read more]
