Quote (jammin @ Jan. 28 2012,21:50)let the people know how tricky you are when it comes to the word of GOD.I'm sure the readers here know exactly who the “tricky” one is, jammin.  I do want to thank you for your contributions, though.  Thanks to you, I'm dealing a death blow to another “Jesus is God” believer using the point you made about H…[Read more]

Toby,Did Jesus exist as a sentient being before the creation of the world?

Quote (942767 @ Jan. 28 2012,21:11)Christ means “the anointed one”.  Is God who Fathered you  “the anointed one”?Marty,I ask about this all the time.  It seems odd to me that the name of Jack's God would be “Jesus, the anointed one OF God”.

Christ was the living (spiritual) Rock that went with them:“For they drank of that spiritual Rock that went with them, and that Rock was the Christ”. 1 Cor. 10:4God is called “rock”. So is Jesus.…[Read more]

Quote (Kangaroo Jack @ Jan. 28 2012,17:27)You're playing games with words. They went to SEE God and He spoke to them. Verse 4 says that God talked with them “face to face.”Deuteronomy 4:15You saw no form of any kind the day the LORD spoke to you at Horeb out of the fire.Enough said?

Quote (Lightenup @ Jan. 28 2012,22:48)Mike,Did your son exist the day before he was born? Yes or No?It depends on your definition of “exist”, Kathi.  At that time, my son was totally dependent on another being; and not just dependent, but actually physically hooked to that other being though an umbilical cord.  He was not an individual being y…[Read more]

Quote (shimmer @ Jan. 28 2012,20:43)Mike you don't understand.  Paul was comparing the different types of “”bodies”” and stating that the dead would also be raised in a body, a new one.  Nothing to do with God and the Angels Mike.Yes Shimmer, Paul said they would be raised in a new, spiritual body, like those of heaven have.  God will not leave th…[Read more]

Quote (toby @ Jan. 28 2012,16:35)Mikeboll, yes.  Jesus was raised up from the dead in a flesh and bone body as a human being.Thank you Toby, for your direct answer.  (Again, if you said this before in one of your other posts and I missed it, my apologies.)In my understading, the body in which Jesus was raised was the same flesh and bone body in w…[Read more]

Quote (toby @ Jan. 29 2012,02:23)It is question 8 that lastly fascinates me, concerning the 'Spirit of Jesus'. You answered:Quote 8. It was originally in a spiritual body, then, when Jesus was made flesh, it was in a human body. Now it is in a spiritual body again.'So at All Times the 'Spirit of Jesus' was housed in one sort of Body or another…[Read more]

Quote (Gene Balthrop @ Jan. 28 2012,15:33)I really don't believe Mike want to post the dictionary definition it would only prove him wrong.Hi Gene,Can you tell us all the DEFINITION of the word “spirit” in Luke 24:37?

Quote (toby @ Jan. 28 2012,15:35)Hi Mikeboll.Why do you ask me if I agree that Jesus was raised in a flesh and bone body?  Is this not what Scripture says?  Toby, This is what I asked you:In other words, do we agree that Jesus was raised from the dead as a human being, and at that time had a human body made of flesh and bone?Address the bolded p…[Read more]

Quote (shimmer @ Jan. 28 2012,15:19)Mike, don't be silly.  There is no mention of God or Angels in thereSo Shimmer, do you think Paul was saying the elect will be raised with bodies that resemble “the sun, moon and stars”?  Or was he saying they will be raised with bodies that resemble “those of heaven”?  Which one makes more sense to you?Quote (s…[Read more]

Jack, your scripture is talking about HEARING God, not seeing Him.  So I don't know why you posted it.  Jacob wrestled with an angel of Jehovah – one of His vice regents who were often called “God” or “Jehovah”.Jehovah Himself told Moses, “you cannot see my face, for no one may see me and live.” (Ex 33:20)Yet many people saw the face of Jesus…[Read more]

Jack,Jesus is not God Almighty, but His Son. The sooner you accept this scriptural FACT, the better of you'll be.

Quote (Gene Balthrop @ Jan. 28 2012,10:31)ED J………that does not mean they never had bodies it simply mean that the Lad could not see them, His eyes were closed to them.And then God opened his eyes so that he could see the spirit beings, Gene. That was Ed's point.

Does the scripture say that Jehovah is the “God of false gods”?

No Gene,My argument is with your inability to understand simple concepts. Jehovah is ALWAYS EVERYONE'S God, Gene. He always has been since He created all things. So how does He then say, “I WILL BE your God”?

Yes Ed,I know that you meant verse 16, as if the subject of the sentence changed from verse 15 to verse 16. You do the same thing with John 1:14-15. Why do you keep thinking the subject of the sentence is changing when there is no grammatical or scriptural reason to think so? So don't put YOUR inability to understand simple sentences on me not…[Read more]
