Quote (journey42 @ Sep. 20 2012,01:48)Not every “In that day” refers to the coming of Christ or the millennium.Yes journey,I realize that.  I was addressing a question from Wake Up, and showing him the many uses of “in that day” in the scriptures. Our difference stems from my belief that many uses of “in that day” refer to AFTER the SECOND…[Read more]

Quote (Lightenup @ Sep. 19 2012,22:37)Mike,I think the only difference is that I do not call the Holy Spirit a person like the Father and Son are persons.Kathi,If YOU believe in TWO distinct Almighty Gods, and the Trinitarians only believe in ONE, then THAT is your main difference with them.But I agree that this is off-topic.

Quote (limjunus @ Sep. 19 2012,22:39)Quote (jammin @ Sep. 19 2012,21:42)limjunus,btw you are still not answering my question.if paul said the father is the only God and Christ is the only LORD.does it mean that the father is not LORD to you?? yes or no?Jammin,”that but i think your mind should be fixed by psychiatrist. you have a big problem…[Read more]

Quote (Lightenup @ Sep. 19 2012,22:17)Also, the earlier manuscript says “only begotten God.” The Peshitta has 'only begotten God' also.From NETNotes:The textual problem μονογενὴς θεός (monogenh” qeo”, “the only God”) versus ὁ μονογενὴς υἱός (Jo monogenh” Juio”, “the only son”) is a notoriously difficult one. Only one letter would have differe…[Read more]

Quote (journey42 @ Sep. 19 2012,08:07)Jesus called us brethren, and friends. Never once did he call us sons. Never once.The hope is to become true brothers and sisters of Jesus, and true sons and daughters of God.The hope was never to become brothers and sisters of God. When asked if they hope to become a brother or sister of God Almighty, the…[Read more]

Quote (kerwin @ Sep. 19 2012,03:19)Kathi,That passage is speaking of the Spirit by personifying it……………John 1:18 speaks about Jesus – just like the rest of John 1.

Quote (limjunus @ Sep. 19 2012,01:13)Except, the Father, there is no true God or true god.Then to you, Jesus is a “false god”? This MUST be the case, if you take the words “only true god” LITERALLY.

Quote (limjunus @ Sep. 19 2012,01:06)To make clear, mighty word is not meant God.You are in error on this point, limjunis.The Hebrew word “el”, the Greek word “theos”, and the English word “god” all mean “mighty one”.Can you tell me what the word “god” means in your own understanding?To me, it means “mighty one”. What does it mean to you?

Quote (Wakeup @ Sep. 18 2012,19:03)If you could show me scriptures revering  THAT DAY,and not mean the Lords day; his day of power.I would appreciate it.Here are 121 different mentions of “in that day”.  They are surely not all about the 1000 year reign.  And from what I can tell, it is not clear that any of them are about the 1000 year reign.

Quote (Lightenup @ Sep. 18 2012,23:24) Thus, in Rev 15:3-4, when John refers to God as “holy,” using the term ὅσιος in a context where the emphasis is on both God and Christ………Poppycock.  The song was either sung BY Moses AND the Lamb, or the song was sung TO Moses AND the Lamb.I understand that this one is a low blow to the Trin…[Read more]

Quote (Wakeup @ Sep. 18 2012,15:52)The second resurrection consist of all people, of all generations and of all religions,and believes.But the great multitude in Rev 7 is made up of all nations and tongues, right? And they are those who made it through the great tribulation, right? Surely these people made it through the great tribulation BEFORE…[Read more]

Quote (Wakeup @ Sep. 18 2012,15:40)When scripture says; THAT DAY it means the Lords day. His days of reigning on earth,starting from his coming,to the end of the 1000yrs.I'm not saying I disagree with you here, but is there a scripture that explicitely explains that “in that day” refers to the 1000 year reign?It seems to me that there have…[Read more]

journey,I really appreciate the time and effort you put into your posts. The use of different colors, italics, and bolds, etc. really make your posts things of beauty as well as easy to follow.

Frank,Perhaps you feel that using “Yeremyah” instead of the commonly accepted “Jeremiah”, and using “Isrylite” instead of “Israelite” somehow brings you closer to God.  But, according to the holy, inspired scriptures, Jehovah called Himself “el” and “elohim”.  We usually translate those words as “god” in English.  And while I agree that “god” is…[Read more]

Frank,Do you really need to quote all that information just to address the ONE little question limjunis asked?Don't you know how to quote only the part to which you are responding? If not, ask me, and I'll walk you through the process.

Quote (Ed J @ Sep. 18 2012,12:22)……..which have many variant readings and many omissions.Is it really an “omission” if the OLDER mss didn't have the words, and then they started showing up later in NEWER mss? Seems to me like the newer mss have ADDITIONS – rather than the older ones having OMISSIONS.

Quote (journey42 @ Sep. 15 2012,19:24)Quote (mikeboll64 @ Sep. 14 2012,03:29)I've always wondered which humans they'll be reigning over, since the “bad” ones are dead, and the “good” ones are the ones reigning.Exactly Mike!  That's why the theory of everyone being destroyed does not fit.Perhaps the “great multitude” in Rev 7 are the ones who will…[Read more]

Quote (Wakeup @ Sep. 15 2012,18:36)Rev.20:4.resurrected will reign with Christ for a 1000yrs.not in heaven,for we dont reign over the angels,but over the jews,and the gentiles.(flesh).1 Corinthians 6:3Do you not know that we will judge angels?I've read your scriptures, and recongize them as prophesies that “in that day”, people will again dwell in…[Read more]

Ed,The Creator and Ruler of the Universe is but ONE of the MANY gods, both in heaven and on earth.The word “god”, or more importantly, the word “el”, doesn't mean “Creator and Ruler of the Universe”.I have given you the meaning of “el”, Ed.  I don't have time to play games with you anymore.  You can either accept the truth of the matter, or c…[Read more]
