Charles,I too would like to see the scriptural support of many of the things you promote on this site.But I would like to read it in a short, to the point, coherent manner – not as huge manifestos of many eccentric teachings jumbled together – teachings that no one here has a clue where you came up with them.Just sayin'

Quote (Ed J @ Oct. 23 2012,13:00)Hi Mike,Try “HolySpirit” instead.God blessEd JSorry Ed,But we've been down this road a number of times already. Your theory only works if the Holy Spirit BECAME (not “came to be IN”) flesh and dwelled on earth. (John 1:14) It only works if the Holy Spirit is the only begotten son who God sent to explain Him.…[Read more]

Kathi,I read Exodus 24 in the NETBible today, and found this enlightening:This chapter is the climax of God’s bringing people into covenant with himself, the completion of his revelation to them, a completion that is authenticated with the miraculous. It ends with the mediator going up in the clouds to be with God, and the people down below e…[Read more]

The question was WHY would we need to come to the SECOND Almighty God?  If Jesus can do everything his own God can do, then why is the hope to be judged worthy by Jesus to approach God?Is the second Almighty God capable of doing something for us that the first one cannot do?  YES or NO?

Obviously, if the God the Word was with in John 1:1 was the Father, then the Word could not possibly be the Father, right?This analogy doesn't help…[Read more]

Quote (Richtuner @ Oct. 21 2012,18:20)Read my post, I said I did not believe in 3 separate Gods.Nor did I ever imply that you DID say that.  Quote (Richtuner @ Oct. 21 2012,18:20)Why is it so hard to believe that God created man as a spirit being that has a soul and lives in a body? Does this offend you? It isn't hard to believe, nor does it…[Read more]

Quote (Marlin1 @ Oct. 21 2012,18:22)Brother Mike,Can God the Father have a different will then God the Son or can God the Son have a different will then God the Holy Ghost. The answer is NO. For these are three titles of the same God.John 6:38 For I have come down from heaven not to do my will but to do the will of him who sent me.Luke 22:42…[Read more]

Quote (Lightenup @ Oct. 22 2012,17:19)Mike,Did you watch this video?No. Not yet. I may watch it at some time, but I'm not really too interested in the teachings of men, Kathi. If there are good, scriptural points made in that video, then post those points along with the scriptures that support them.I will address the points if they are based on…[Read more]

Quote (kerwin @ Oct. 22 2012,02:53)“I am with you always” is not equivalent to  “I have been with you always“Agreed.  Similarly, when Jehovah comissions Moses to go to Pharaoh, there is some discussion over whether Jehovah was saying, “Don't fear, for I AM with you”, or , “Don't fear, for I WILL BE with you”.But the same doesn't apply to John 1…[Read more]

Quote (terraricca @ Oct. 20 2012,20:36)From the mid 1950s onwards Branham began to publicly teach that neither Oneness theology nor Trinitarianism was correct, but that God was the same Person in three different offices – in the same way that a husband can also be a father and a grandfather.Hmmmm…………..Can Mike the father have a different w…[Read more]

Quote (Richtuner @ Oct. 20 2012,20:21)Paul says your spirit soul and body. Was he not right? Was he speaking by himself of himself or by Gods direction?Rich, it seems you're missing my point, which was:  SO WHAT if Paul speaks of a man's spirit, soul, and body?  Do each of these three things have a mind and will of their own?  If not, then that ex…[Read more]

Kathi,Please address the post at the bottom of the previous page for me.

Quote (Gene Balthrop @ Oct. 21 2012,09:30)Mike…….If my reasoning was flawed then show where it was………..1.  You said that since Abraham rejoiced to see the day of Jesus, it means Jesus couldn't have existed before that “day”.2.  I pointed out that the “day” of our Lord is not yet upon us, but that doesn't mean our Lord doesn't already e…[Read more]

Quote (SimplyForgiven @ Oct. 21 2012,02:18)I want to talk more about it, but I don't want to be rude? should I make a seperate thread?It seems like you and Charles want to talk more about it – so start the thread if you want to. Perhaps I'll join you there.
