Quote (Nick Hassan @ Feb. 09 2012,19:15)Hi MB, Are logic and human wisdom the best tools for us to use?Surely scripture interprets scripture?Joel 1:6A nation has invaded my land, powerful and without number; it has the teeth of a lion, the fangs of a lioness.Nick, does this nation (as a whole) really have sharp teeth? Will they bite the…[Read more]

Gene doesn't believe there is such a thing as “free will”.

Quote (Nick Hassan @ Feb. 09 2012,21:07)Hi T,Why go beyond what is written?Nick,It is not written that “the Word of God” in Rev 19:13 refers to Jesus Christ. Do you believe it does?

Quote (terraricca @ Feb. 09 2012,21:01)Nickthat is not an answer, I know what scriptures says but it seems you are saying one thing and with your other hand you say something different ;so give a strait answer pleaseWait until he's done that to you for 47 consecutive posts, Pierre.

Quote (Nick Hassan @ Feb. 09 2012,20:36)Hi MB, Sounds like you have finished learning on this point anyway.As long as you're still willing to learn on this point, we'll be just fine.You said:Quote Hi MB,The WORD spoke through the vessel of Jesus.No surprises there.Is the WORD an individual being, that is alive separately from God?

Was anyone going to disagree with the three grammatically correct possibilities of translating John 1:1c? (Top post on page 6)I'll move forward with that point tomorrow.

Hi Kerwin,There is a reason that Jesus is not only the Branch of David, but also the Root.Matthew 2245 If then David calls him ‘Lord,’ how can he be his son?” 46 No one could say a word in reply, and from that day on no one dared to ask him any more questions.Jesus was teaching something here that some of us understand, and others don't.  The…[Read more]

Quote (Nick Hassan @ Feb. 10 2012,15:11)Hi MB, So called gods and other lords are not of real relevance to those in Christ.There is no scripture in the whole of the Bible that mentions such a thing as a “so-called god”.

Quote (Nick Hassan @ Feb. 10 2012,16:12)Hi MB, To draw from Gal 1 that Jesus is not a man is to argue those verses against the many that say he is. That is not our role but rather to align them and find truthThat's where you're wrong, Nick.  And that's precisely what I started this thread to show people.  1 Timothy 25 For there is one God and o…[Read more]

Quote (t8 @ Feb. 10 2012,16:01)But it does say this:Just as we have borne the image of the man of dust, we shall also bear the image of the man of heaven.The second “man” is added in some translations, but the Greek does not have that word in 15:49.It actually says, “just as we have borne the image of the earthly, we shall also bear the image of…[Read more]

Quote (Nick Hassan @ Feb. 10 2012,15:03)Hi MB,You have pet peeves about folk saying things that are not written Does scripture say God and angels are persons?Scripture describes God and angels as persons, Nick. Persons with feelings, intelligence, their own wills, etc.

Quote (Nick Hassan @ Feb. 10 2012,14:53)Hi MB, The role of Mediator still is that of the man Jesus Christ.Nick,I disagree. I understand 1 Tim 2:5-6 to be saying that the (used to be) man who died for us, is (now) the mediator between man and God.Would the mediator BETWEEN the French and German nations be a member of one of those nations?Would the…[Read more]

Quote (Marlin1 @ Feb. 10 2012,00:21)Strongs says, Definition: not even one (man, woman, or thing) i.e none, nobody, nothing.So the truth is that KJV got it correct, the meaning being no body. And being that Jesus was able to open the 7 seals and He is a PERSON confirms this.Hi Marlin,My point is that it is talking about a PERSON, like you…[Read more]

Quote (Nick Hassan @ Feb. 10 2012,14:46)Hi MB,1Tim2.5″For there is one God and one mediator also between God and men, the MAN Jesus Christ”Read the OP of this thread, Nick. I've addressed that scripture.

Quote (Nick Hassan @ Feb. 09 2012,21:13)Hi MB,True These matters are not of deep importance are they?Probably not, Nick.  In due time, we'll all know the current makeup of Jesus.I guess it is a pet peave of mine when the whole world agrees on some grandfathered in doctrine that the scriptures don't even teach.I've believed some myself in the…[Read more]

Quote (t8 @ Feb. 09 2012,21:36)So it appears that Jesus is not adam in Heaven, but anthropos in Heaven.Hi t8,The Greek word “anthropos” refers to a “human being”. There is another Greek word that distinguishes male from female. Jesus is called by that word after he was raised, but never by “anthropos”.Don't forget that 1 Cor 15 says “the…[Read more]

Quote (Pastry @ Feb. 10 2012,11:50)Hey MikeYou have to learn to ignore Nick, he's the same as before, annoying.GeorgYou are right, Georg. I shouldn't let someone else have control of my emotions like that.Shame on me for losing my temper. I apologize to all.

Quote (Nick Hassan @ Feb. 09 2012,19:25)Hi MB, I am sure you can review recent posts as well as anyone.Just an impression, perhaps a wrong one.Nick,Show me what exact words I spoke that made you conclude I had stopped learning.You cannot, can you? I only took this as far as I did to shove your flippant remark right back down your own…[Read more]

So when the God OF gods (that means there are more than one of them, Ed) said “ye are gods”, He was lying?
