Which one does Phil 2:5 say, Nick?

Quote (Nick Hassan @ Mar. 17 2012,17:23)Hi MB,Jesus and the Word become Jesus Christ.But you insist that didn't happen until about 30 A.D., right?How then could “Jesus” have any part of being in the form of God, or having his own glory alongside of God before the world was created through him?Nick, the Word was with THE God, and the Word was also…[Read more]

Quote (Nick Hassan @ Mar. 17 2012,17:14)Hi MB,Does a servant have his own will?What use is a servant who follows his own will?Following your own will and having one of your own are two different things, Nick.The servant sent to the front line of the war might will that he be somewhere else, but at the same time follow the will of his commander.…[Read more]

Quote (Nick Hassan @ Mar. 17 2012,17:09)Let God teach you from scripture.How about you point out for me anything I ever say that is against what is written in scripture – okay?Right now we're trying to figure out which one of us is speaking according to scripture about Phil 2:5. Does the scripture say the spirit of Christ was existing in the form…[Read more]

Quote (Nick Hassan @ Mar. 17 2012,16:15)Hi MB,OPPOSING?The Spirit of Christ SERVES God.Follow closely here, Nick:If God and Jesus had the same exact will, then Jesus could never say he came down from heaven, NOT to do his will, but to do God's.If their wills were the same, then Jesus DID come down from heaven to do HIS OWN will, which just…[Read more]

Pierre,I'm kicking myself right now for getting sidetracked.  After my last post to Nick, I was about to make a following post asking how much anyone wanted to bet that Nick's answer would be some flippant remark about trying to understand God with human wisdom!  My son distracted me, and I forgot to make the follow-up post.  But I was sure ri…[Read more]

Which one does Phil 2:5 say, Nick?

Quote (toby @ Mar. 17 2012,15:56)Isn't everything you said to me based on your assumption that Jesus had(?) a Spiritual Body?I didn't assume that God gives to each seed a body to His liking – that is in the scriptures.I didn't assume that Jesus now has a new glorious body in heaven – that is also in the scriptures.I do assume that since Jesus NOW…[Read more]

Quote (toby @ Mar. 17 2012,15:45)Hi Mikeboll,You said: Quote Scriptures says that the Spirit is put into the Body made from the dust of the Earth (or from another earthly human female being through pregnancy) and when that occurs the two become a Living Soul.Show me that scripture.Genesis 2:7 'And the LORD God formed the man out of the dust of…[Read more]

Nick,Keep your riddles to yourself.  Instead, answer just one question:Does Phil 2:5 say, “the Spirit of Christ was existing in the form of God”?Or does it say, “JESUS Christ was existing in the form of God”?WHICH ONE, NICK?

Quote (abe @ Mar. 17 2012,13:12)Hi Pierre,Strongs #1722- en (a preposition ) – properly, in (inside, within ); (figuratively) ” in the realm (sphere) of “ as in the condition (state) in which something operates from the inside (within).I didn't write this, but I do understand it.Do you understand that one of the definitions means, “in the…[Read more]

Quote (Nick Hassan @ Mar. 17 2012,14:52)Hi MB, The Spirit of Christ is made as a servant to God.Phil2In and one with God's Spirit.No Nick,JESUS Christ was made as a servant to God.  Your flawed understanding doesn't allow for Paul to say “Jesus Christ” in Phil 2:5.Your understanding wouldn't use the name “Jesus” at all, since according to you,…[Read more]

Quote (Nick Hassan @ Mar. 17 2012,14:51)Hi MB, SONSHIP to God is by sharing His Spirit. That is what made Jesus the Christ.Nick,Go tell your unscriptural riddles to someone who cares. The SCRIPTURES say God created the universe through “HIS SON”.Deal with it.

Quote (Nick Hassan @ Mar. 17 2012,14:46)Hi MB, In what way does CHOSEN mean anointed?“Anointed” literally means to “smear with oil”. Figuratively, an anointed one of God is one that God has set aside or chosen for a particular purpose. Read about Cyrus, who was set aside (anointed) to help rebuild God's temple many years before he was even born.

Quote (Nick Hassan @ Mar. 17 2012,14:45)Hi MB, God does all his creating through His Spirit.Well, let's see what the scriptures say, and compare them to what YOU say:Heb 1:2 but in these last days he has spoken to us by his Son, whom he appointed heir of all things, and through whom he made the universe.Hmmmm………………Is God's Spirit also…[Read more]

Yes Nick. Therefore CHOSEN (anointed) by God BEFORE he was baptized. And therefore different from any one of us right from his conception.

Quote (Frank4YAHWEH @ Mar. 17 2012,14:36)Nick,Yahshua Messiah is never once recorded as proclaiming that he had created ANYTHING!Nor did he create anything. All things were created by God THROUGH Jesus.

Quote (Gene Balthrop @ Mar. 17 2012,13:18)………The angel was just relating to them that Jesus was the Messiah promised to come. He was not say Jesus was already anointed , that simply is not true Jesus was not anointed until he was anointed at the Jordan riverGene,If Jesus was just a regular old, non spirit-filled schmuck like the rest of us,…[Read more]
