Actually Gene,If I view it the way you do, many scriptures will be adversely affected.  Luke 24:37 is one of them.Unless you think the disciples were seeing an intellect inside someone, then you have to realize that sometimes the word “spirit” refers to a spirit being.Once you accept this scriptural fact, then certain scriptures will start making…[Read more]

Quote (Gene Balthrop @ Mar. 17 2012,08:47)Spirits do not have BODIES at all. Can you at least agree with this MIKE> if so we can make some head way here Brother.But Gene,You agree that angels DO have bodies, right?

Quote (kerwin @ Mar. 16 2012,22:38)Do you believe the prophets of old came from God?All things come from God.  (1 Cor 8:6)But Jesus is the only prophet of God who ever said, “I came down from heaven.”(Note:  He did NOT say, “THE SPIRIT INSIDE OF ME came down from heaven.”)Jesus is the only prophet of God who ever said he had glory alongside his G…[Read more]

Quote (kerwin @ Mar. 15 2012,23:28)Be like Jesus Christ in your attitude, who being in the form of God, does not regard equality with God a thing to be grasped, but empties himself,  having taken the form of a bond-servant, having been made in the likeness of mankind.Kerwin,Do you see how the transition from present to past tense in your…[Read more]

Quote (Nick Hassan @ Mar. 16 2012,22:09)Hi MB, So you prefer two gods, one called Jesus,the two being at a higher echelon than many other gods. They had separate natures and wills and abilities and the greater sent the lesser one?Where did all the others originate from and why was there such individuality?From the One who created all things.Some…[Read more]

Quote (Ed J @ Mar. 16 2012,22:26)I believe that verse was added to some very early copies.And copied and copied until it was in the Majority of the Greek texts being passed around.My source says that ONLY four or five of the VERY LATEST mss contain those words, Ed. That doesn't add up to a “majority” – as you put it.The words are in NONE of the…[Read more]

Quote (toby @ Mar. 17 2012,06:34)God could have created the Sinful Corrupt Earthly Flesh and Blood Body (and all) of Jesus from his (you say) Glorious Spiritual Heavenly Body.Not only could, but did.  God created you, Toby – body and all.  The sin is inherited from Adam, but God forms each and every one of us in the womb.  He is the One who cr…[Read more]

Quote (Gene Balthrop @ Mar. 17 2012,08:21)That is why it say GOD can gives us a New Heart be cause he can simply remove a aspect of our thinking and give us a new one, this causes a transforming of our Mind in the way we think, and act.So then “preparing a new heart for us” doesn't necessarily mean that God LITERALLY had to physically remove our…[Read more]

Quote (toby @ Mar. 17 2012,06:23)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.

Quote (kerwin @ Mar. 16 2012,22:03)Even if Paul stated what you say, how do you know what a spiritual body is composed of, except it is not flesh and blood.Kerwin,The question of this thread is whether or not spirit beings, such as angels and Jesus, have bodies in heaven. It seems we agree they do.

Quote (kerwin @ Mar. 16 2012,21:17)You do not believe that Jesus Anointed comes from heaven because if you did you would understand his words.What scripture says “Jesus ANOINTED” came down from heaven?  The one I know of says “JESUS said he came down from heaven”.Nor does my source imply that “once in a rare while” the aorist tense is translated…[Read more]

Good one, Ed.  I think he is saying that the anointed one OF God IS the God who anointed him.  But then again, he does offer this proof:Christ is truly GOD! the thread has been answered

My truth doesn't require my God to have two opposing wills – or a Father of His own.I'll stick with what the scriptures actually teach, instead of believing in an unscriptural “concept” that “came to” Nick Hassan at an advanced age.

Quote (Ed J @ Mar. 16 2012,03:26)PIERRE,What you consider good is irrelevant!Ed,Couldn't we say the same thing about your love of the KJV?How do you deal with 1 John 5:7, Ed?This is the footnote from the NIV:1 John 5:8 NU-Text and M-Text omit the words from in heaven (verse 7) through on earth (verse 8). Only four or five very late manuscripts…[Read more]

Quote (Nick Hassan @ Mar. 16 2012,20:43)Hi MB,The anointed Jesus did.His unity with the Word is utter.His history now is of the Spirit of ChristAnd amused I am. Thanks Nick. I don't ever want to hear you correcting anyone by saying “CHRIST Jesus” again, okay? Because we can apparently say all things were created through JESUS and be correct,…[Read more]

Quote (Nick Hassan @ Mar. 16 2012,20:48)Hi MB, Prophecy. No anointing by the Holy Spirit is recorded till the Jordan.And no anointing by the Holy Spirit was recorded for Saul until AFTER he was ALREADY the anointed one of God.

Luke 210 Then the angel said to them, “Do not be afraid, for behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy which will be to all people. 11 For there is born to you this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord.David, just focus on that one passage for a while.  This was spoken by an angel of God the very day Jesus was born.  I…[Read more]

No Ed.  I don't watch the videos you post – sorry.David, when do you think Cyrus became the christ of God?  Do you think he was born as God's foretold christ?  Or do you think there was a day in his life where he transformed from regular dude to “Christ of God”?Personally, I think he was God's christ from the time God prophesied about his co…[Read more]

Nick,Thanks for reminding me. I was waiting for an answer to my last question to you.If the person “JESUS” had nothing at all to do with being in the form of God and then being made into the likeness of a man, why do you suppose Paul says it was “JESUS CHRIST” who did these things?Isn't that an “inaccuracy” on his part – the same thing you harp…[Read more]
