Kathi, How could Jesus have “BECOME as much superior to the angels as the name he has INHERITED is superior to theirs”?

Quote (Lightenup @ June 25 2012,11:41)BD,If you see that LORD=Jehovah/YHVH and if you see that YHVH=the God of gods and the Lord of lordsand if you see that for us there is one God (Father) and one Lord (Son)and if you see that the Father and Son are one…it all comes together.Really?  You're STILL going to continue using this theory to force…[Read more]

Quote (Lightenup @ June 24 2012,20:00)Ok, Mike,Then you were made aware that a 1st century document indicates that Jesus was the creator and not the created. Even back then, that was taught, and by the apostle Peter who you agree has a position of authority in the body of Christ. Therefore, it wasn't something that the people of the third century…[Read more]

Quote (Gene Balthrop @ June 25 2012,08:37)Saying a Satan “BEING” is the cause of this all  is the same as saying that our sins are not our fault, and therefore God is an unjust Judge.None of us here believe the old “Devil made me do it” ploy, Gene.  None of us are trying to pass responsibility of our own sins over to someone else.I'm going to t…[Read more]

Hi Marty,I think you're focusing on the wrong point here.  You must first decide how God could have had an “outward appearence” in the first place, so that Jesus could be existing in that same form.I personally believe that God, like all spirit beings, has a spiritual body which can be seen by other spirit beings.The eyes of human beings can't…[Read more]

Nice song.  I love how God is the center of your entire anthem.  This is how all national anthems should be. Ours is about a freakin' flag.

Good post Wakeup.I doubt that it will change Gene's mind, but good use of scripture to prove your point.

The facts have always been the facts. But it would be nice to hear Nick acknowledge them for once.

Nick, We are eating up Doc's thread with this nonsense. If you have a scriptural reason for me to adjust my current understanding (as posted on the first page of this thread), then lay it on me and I will give it the utmost consideration.But you asking “under the altar” over and over is not enough for me to adjust what already aligns with all…[Read more]

John was a human messenger.Jesus has been a messenger of God in both human and spirit form. I believe the word “prophet” only applies to when he was in human form.

The only reply I saw was Acts 10. Read MY reply to your reply: It speaks of the HOLY SPIRIT, not some “spirit of anointing”.I await a NAME for my first question, and a SCRIPTURE that actually teaches me about “the spirit of the anointing” for my second.Ready, set, GO!

Nick,I await an answer:Here is Hebrews 1:4 translated as it should be:So he became as much superior to the angels MESSENGERS as the name he has inherited is superior to theirs.So tell me how Jesus, as a messenger, could be superior to “the messengers”?Do you want a hint?

No, most priests are not spirit messengers, which you like to call “angels”. But Jesus is.And I don't recall any spirit messenger of God being called a “prophet” off hand.

1. Nick, can you name the individual person John said dwelled among us with the glory of the only begotten from the Father?2. Will you list a scripture that will teach me of “the spirit of the anointing”, so I can read more about this spirit?

NickI still await your answers to the two questions on the 7th post on page 410. Btw, Acts 10 speaks of the Holy Spirit, not some “spirit of anointing”.

Yes. Priests deliver messages from God to others.

Hi Charity,I've read quite a few of your posts on this site, but have never commented because I'm never quite sure what you're talking about.I don't personally have any control over who is allowed to post in the Believer's section, nor do I control who gets editing rights.  Does that information address your point?peace,mike

Nick,Do you mean “Are priests MESSENGERS”? Yes they are. Aaron was a human messenger as priest, and Jesus is a spirit messenger as priest. So if you want to call spirit messengers “angels”, then Jesus IS one, and Aaron wasn't.

Exodus 27:8Make the altar hollow, out of boards. It is to be made just as you were shown on the mountain.Exodus 38:7They inserted the poles into the rings so they would be on the sides of the altar for carrying it. They made it hollow, out of boards.They also made a grating, which was to be placed under the LEDGE of the altar, which was half way…[Read more]
