Quote (942767 @ June 29 2012,17:12)Hi Mike:The scripture states that God is invisible.  I do not know a scripture which states that angels are invisible.Look at Col 1:16 and John 3:8.  Are you going to seriously claim that angels, as spirit beings, are not invisible to human beings?Why then would God have to open the eyes of Balaam and Elisha's s…[Read more]

Marty,Is it scriptural that John the Baptist called Jesus “the Lamb of God” – even though Jesus wasn't literally a lamb? YES or NO?

Quote (942767 @ June 29 2012,16:30)He says and “Now glorify me”, and NOT “and now glorify me again with the glory which I had with thee before the world was”.And you don't think the words “with the glory I HAD” indicates a previous glory? Isn't “again” implied if Jesus is asking to be glorified NOW with the glory HE HAD before the world began? Ma…[Read more]

Quote (kerwin @ June 29 2012,00:39)Mike,Quote Does scripture tell us when or why Jesus started being called the Word of God?  If it does, that is news to me.Anyway, your response was irrelevant to my question.  I only want to know if God meant Jesus when he spoke of putting His word in His people's inward parts in Jer 31:33.  Do you think God wa…[Read more]

Gene,Surely God did not say to Himself, “What do you think of my servant Job?”, and then answer Himself saying, “Stretch out your hand and strike everything he has, and he will surely curse you to your face.”, and then say to Himself, ““Very well, then, everything he has is in your hands, but on the man himself do not lay a finger.”.

What's up with that, Gene?

Kathi, Your posts do not add up to the scripture.  When was Simon given the name “Cephas” by Jesus?  At his conception?    When was Abram given the name Abraham by God?  At his birth?   Read the context:  Jesus provided purification for sins, then sat down at God's right hand, and BECAME as much superior to the angels as the name he INHERITED (not…[Read more]

Quote (Lightenup @ June 28 2012,17:42)Mike,The context of Heb 1 says nothing about a new name but it does call Him 'the Son of God' in the context. The literal Son of God would be superior to the angels. I think that the point is that He is far superior to the angels.It is scriptural that Jesus INHERITED a NEW name when his God exalted him to His…[Read more]

No he can't, because if “The Most High God” is a unity, then it would be that unity who has a Son named Jesus. If only ONE has a Son named Jesus, then only ONE is “The Most High God”.

Quote (kerwin @ June 27 2012,21:45)T;Those few passages teach us certain things but the rest of Hebrews still teach us more and reinforce those things we already know.Chapter 1 is clearly making the point that the Son is not an angel for to which angel did God state “Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee?”.  Instead he commanded the…[Read more]

Quote (Gene Balthrop @ June 28 2012,11:11)Your error is you are making Spirit a Person or “BEING”  (IT) is NOT> As through the eye of your understanding , God can not be physically seen now or ever will be either.

Quote (Lightenup @ June 28 2012,10:58)According to my understanding, “Son of God” would be the name the Son 'inherited' as opposed to 'received' by a means other than being a literal son.Obviously, the Son had to be put in a lower position than the angels when He became flesh which would make Him in an inferior position according to His…[Read more]
