Quote (Lightenup @ Sep. 05 2012,19:46)…….according to his glorified humanity, I believe that I am considered a brethren…according to His divinity, He is my LORD.1.  Kathi, do you consider Jesus to be “God Almighty”?  YES or NO?2.  Do you think the elect will become brothers of Jesus?  YES or NO?3.  If “YES”, does this mean that you thin…[Read more]

Quote (Devolution @ Sep. 05 2012,23:50) Did I “not know” the other one?  No Mike. You didn't…..Hmmm………..I think I answered your first question accurately.  Can you honestly tell me that not one single Pharisee in the group to whom Jesus said those words understood what he meant?Of course not.  For all we know, five of them in that group co…[Read more]

Quote (Ed J @ Sep. 06 2012,03:47)Michael: who is like “the Almighty” or who is like 'a mighty one'?Ed,Why do YOU keep bringing up more points when you haven't even attempted to address MY points from my last few posts?Have you found a SUPPORTING dictionary to say “el” means “almighty” yet?  (Because the one you keep using surely doesn't say…[Read more]

Welcome to Heaven Net J-47,I enjoyed reading the info you posted, and look forward to reading the “meat and potatoes” when you post it.I am happy to hear that you are finally going to delve into the scriptures themselves.  Like you, I also study alone, having read the Bible for the first time about 3 years ago.  Since I started, I haven't s…[Read more]

Quote (kerwin @ Sep. 05 2012,22:14)Mike,That is not a literal translation as soulish body is the one that is buried.I have never heard of any such thing as a “soulish body”, Kerwin. Could you explain what it is you're talking about?

Quote (Gene Balthrop @ Sep. 06 2012,09:41)Paul was not dealing with a “TYPE” of BODY, except to the way it thinks, not a type of body, not being made up of Physical matter as you assume. But a type of MIND that is in that Physical BODY>1 Corinthians 15:35 But someone will ask, “How are the dead raised? With what kind of body will they c…[Read more]

Quote (kerwin @ Sep. 05 2012,17:54)Sheol/Hades are the common grave of the souls of humanity.I agree with that, Kerwin.NETBible translates Sheol as “grave”, and adds this footnote:Hebrew: “Sheol,” the dwelling place of the dead.Take that for what it's worth.  

Quote (Lightenup @ Sep. 05 2012,17:35)Mike,You just go ahead and pray to all your gods to save youI already told you that using the PC belief that there LITERALLY exists only ONE god against me is futile.I welcome this discussion so I can educate others on the true scriptural teaching of many gods, in heaven and on earth.  In fact, I've recently…[Read more]

Quote (Lightenup @ Sep. 05 2012,17:35)I do believe that I have the tradition of the early church on my side here…Matthew 15Thus you nullify the word of God for the sake of your tradition. 7 You hypocrites! Isaiah was right when he prophesied about you: 8 “‘These people honor me with their lips,    but their hearts are far from me.9 They worsh…[Read more]

Kathi,You mentioned the traditions of men in two of your three posts.  What did Jesus teach about the traditions of men?And it is YOU who doesn't have a single scripture to explain that the Jews secretly worshiped “our TWO Almighty Gods”.  Or that Jesus was eternally existent before his God begot him.  Or that he is ever called “YHWH”.You are ri…[Read more]

Quote (Stu @ Sep. 05 2012,03:12)Why do you call the author of Luke “Luke”?  Should we trust the word of someone whose name we don’t know?What would you like to call him?  It doesn't really matter, because we have someone claiming to have heard the things that are written in his book from EYEWITNESSES to the events described in his book.  Do you…[Read more]

Quote (Ed J @ Sep. 04 2012,20:08)Hi Mike,God's spirit is God.Trying to draw 'a wedge' between what Scriptures say and what I say (by attempting to change my words) is a fruitless endeavor.According to you, God's spirit is God.  And according to you, the Word in John 1:14 is God's spirit, right?1+1=2, Ed.  If the Word is God's spirit, and God's s…[Read more]

Quote (Devolution @ Sep. 05 2012,04:48)Mike, it has everything to do with our little debate!Funny…………. I thought this “little debate” was about whether or not God chose to preserve His unadulterated word in the KJV, so that all ENGLISH SPEAKING people who LIVED AFTER 1611 could have access to this perfect, unadulterated version of His…[Read more]

Quote (Lightenup @ Sep. 05 2012,06:46)begotten 'God' implies an eternal nature.The word “begotten”, in and of itself, most definitely argues AGAINST an eternal nature.If Jesus is the only begotten god, then he is a god (mighty one) who was at one time begotten (brought forth into existence from a state of non-existence).

Quote (Lightenup @ Sep. 05 2012,06:54)You think that YHWH is only the God of gods and not the Lord of lords.Wrong.  I KNOW that Jehovah is the God of all other gods, and the Lord of all other lords, INCLUDING Jesus, who was also appointed by his own God (and our God) to be a Lord over other lords.But unlike you, I don't nonsensically believe that…[Read more]

Quote (Lightenup @ Sep. 05 2012,11:35)Also, Adam was not God's firstborn son according to humanity. Adam was God's first created human not firstborn human.Now you are just straining the gnat and swallowing the camel, Kathi.Okay, if not Adam, then Cain. At any rate, there were MANY human sons of God before Jesus was sent to earth. Therefore,…[Read more]
