Quote (terraricca @ Jan. 10 2013,19:34)MIKEyes but also in the mind of Eve do you think that they understood it that the day would be 1000 years??? or did they have the believe of being one 24 hours dayIt's hard to tell what they thought, Pierre. They may have been shaking all that day, expecting death to come at any minute.The point is that God…[Read more]

Quote (Ed J @ Jan. 11 2013,09:54)Hi Kerwin, there is no such thing as 'a begotten god'?Hi Ed,There goes your trademark question mark at the end of a STATEMENT (not a question).   It is noted that your preference for 1:18 is “monogenes huios” (only begotten son).

Quote (kerwin @ Jan. 11 2013,09:54)I believe “ho” and a number of other words depending on the function they serve is the sentence simply mean “who” as in this is the man, who is Mike Boll.“Who” is also a valid translation, Kerwin.  And since the only begotten god/son is definitely a person, “who” works the best.But in English, if we were to…[Read more]

Quote (kerwin @ Jan. 11 2013,09:35)I can see where the Greek may be translated as such though from what you write the word “Son” is not explicitly written.Hi Kerwin,You need to delve a little deeper.  In some Greek mss, the words are “monogenes theos” (only begotten god), and in other Greek mss, the words are “monogenes huios” (only begotten…[Read more]

Quote (Gene Balthrop @ Jan. 11 2013,09:26)My question to you how can you simply discard those scriptures as if they simply do not exist.Hi Gene,My question to you is the same one I've asked for over a year:  How in the world could Jehovah ever have the title “The God OF gods” if He is literally the ONLY god in existence?I have even set up a…[Read more]

I think that would be “PERSONAL selection”, Pierre.

Quote (kerwin @ Jan. 10 2013,06:32)So yes you did say that, though you seem not to see truth in that your teaching is broken in many places.Amen.

jammin,Is God a BEING? Or is God a NATURE?Which one?Is God the Father a nature, like “Mother Nature”? Do you pray to “Father Nature”, jammin?

Quote (Ed J @ Jan. 10 2013,02:40)Why don't you then apply the same definition to 1Cor.15:50? It is the very same word as in Rom 8:8.”Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God;” (1 Cor 15:50) Know with certainty that it is the same Greek word used three times here:And when Jesus speaks of us eating…[Read more]

Quote (Wakeup @ Jan. 10 2013,06:33)EDJ………… when the time comes for the reward,you will receive your reward.And if and when the time comes, you will be allowed to enter into heaven. Until that time, you will not enter heaven, nor have you ever entered into heaven before.

Quote (Ed J @ Jan. 09 2013,20:37)“ye are not in the flesh” means that the spirit is now piloting the vessel of your flesh.So then it DOESN'T mean that Paul was talking to spirit beings?  And therefore, the teaching is METAPHORICAL, and not LITERAL, right?Quote (Ed J @ Jan. 09 2013,20:37)The “Spirit of God” within them means that they have entered…[Read more]

Pierre,That is an excellent scriptural example!  In Gen 3:4, Satan lied, because they did surely die.  And if you consider that a day to God is like a thousand years to us, then they actually died “on that very day”, because no human has ever lived more than 1000 years.On the other hand, what Satan said in verse 5 was the truth, for their eyes W…[Read more]

Quote (2besee @ Jan. 10 2013,17:36)Mike, I agree with you, on this point.You SHOULD agree with me on all points, 2B, because I'm never wrong. I thought I was wrong once, but I was mistaken.
