Quote (seekingtruth @ Jan. 21 2012,05:41)Mike,You never answered my question “why did Jesus make a big deal out of “see it's me, flesh and bones” (why was Jesus deceiving them)”.That is my point exactly, Wm.We all know that Jesus BECAME A SPIRIT – because scripture says so, right?  (Well, all of us except for Gene agree on this.  Gene won't a…[Read more]

Quote (toby @ Jan. 21 2012,02:10)it appears that you misunderstand the word 'transform' – or dematerialisng? I am sure you have a credible dictionary that you can refer to for the meaning!Hi Toby,NETNotes describes the Greek word “metaschematizo” as:to change the figure of, to transformThe question is:  How are YOU reading it as…[Read more]

Quote (princess @ Jan. 21 2012,09:47)Quote So you see that there is only one set of commandments traditionally called “the ten commandments”.Mike why are you defending the traditions of man over the teachings of your God?They are traditionally called “the ten commandments”, Princess.  In Hebrew, they are called “the ten words”.  None of that c…[Read more]

Quote (WhatIsTrue @ Jan. 20 2012,21:37)That's the second version of the ten commandments.WIT, you and Princess are mistaken.   God originally spoke what we all know as “the ten commandments” to the whole congregation of people in Ex 20.  Then Moses alone approached, and God gave him many more laws that aren't to be confused with the ten c…[Read more]

Princess,If she ever calls back (she said “five minutes”), then I will take my 10 year old son with me (he is playing some online game with friends right now in his room).Nor do I give a rat's ass what YOU think of me.  Nor do I know why you would think so highly of yourself to imagine that your opinion of me is so important that I would lie to…[Read more]

Kathi,I couldn't care less about the word games associated with trying to make sense of the senseless trinity doctrine, so I'll walk away from that one.  You are wrong, and I know what you're trying to do.  Since YOU have come to the odd belief that we have Almighty Gods, instead of an Almighty God, you are trying to have “proof in numbers” by l…[Read more]

Quote (Jodi Lee @ Jan. 19 2012,23:01)The problem I see with your position Mike is that there are no scriptures that talk about Jesus transforming into a “spirit being”. The words “spirit being” doesn’t even appear in the bible.Hi Jodi,I haven't agreed with you on anything scriptural yet, so it doesn't surprise me we disagree on this as well.  Quote (princess @ Jan. 20 2012,20:47)Quote (mikeboll64 @ Jan. 21 2012,13:36)Princess,Your last two posts are nonsensical gibberish, and really unworthy of a response from me.No Mike, that is just your way of not facing the truth.

Princess, I am in the best mental and spiritual condition of my life. I do not “seek” any woman, because my God has filled any perceived hole I might have once thought I NEEDED a woman to fill.Nor would I ever seek help so I could be considered more acceptable to you or Stuart or WIT. The world is SUPPOSED to hate me if I'm doing it right. Go…[Read more]

We weren't married.  I was the one who left.  She has wanted to try again for years, but I convinced her that just simply wasn't going to happen.  There were years of anger and resentment on her part, but here I am, on HER kitchen table, typing this post – the place where I spend every weekend with my son and have a fairly healthy paternal re…[Read more]

Princess,Your last two posts are nonsensical gibberish, and really unworthy of a response from me.

WIT,You are calling me childish while YOU'RE the one throwing the tantrum.  If you cannot tell the difference between the 10 commandments that were for all time, and the covenant directed only at the Israelites who were coming into a nation of their own – short lived as it was – then how can I help you?When the man asked Jesus what he could do to…[Read more]

Quote (Ed J @ Jan. 20 2012,19:11)It is clearly explained, no need to read into the text as you suggest doing with John 1:1.So you are saying that if Paul didn't add the “disclaimer”, YOU would have been one of the nutjobs thinking that God WAS included as one of the “all things” under Jesus' feet?  Are you saying that without Paul's disclaimer,…[Read more]

Quote (Kangaroo Jack @ Jan. 16 2012,08:45)Satan never was, is not now and never will be a “God” in any sense of the term.2 Kings 1:6This is what the LORD says: Is it because there is no God in Israel that you are sending men to consult Baal-Zebub, the god of Ekron?That seems to be Jehovah Himself referring to Satan as the “god of Ekron”.Jack, I…[Read more]

I wasn't aware of any erroneous claims I was making about Jesus.But it's a good thing there are other translations that render 1 John 5:7 correctly, just in case anyone did want to use the KJV's faulty translation of that scripture to make erroneous claims, right?  

Hi Wakeup,It was the PERSON named “Jesus” who asked to be returned to the same glory he had ALONGSIDE his God before the world began, right?See, before the beginning, there was but One – God Almighty. Then in the beginning, God brought forth Jesus as the first of His works. After that, God created all things THROUGH the one He first brought…[Read more]

And how does the KJV translate 1 John 5:7, Ed?  They translate it from a more recent mss, in which a scribe added words.There's no longer even a conflict about the so-called “Johanine Comma”.  Even all the Trinitarian scholars recognize that it was added in later – and none of the newer Trinitarian translations have that phrase – because they K…[Read more]

Quote (Lightenup @ Jan. 20 2012,03:04)So, was the Son 'called into being, that which did not exist' or was He begotten/brought out from the Father where He existed beforehand-eternally?  If He existed beforehand-eternally, then He was not created, just begotten.Well, MY son was that which did not exist………….AND…………..was begotten.…[Read more]

Quote (Lightenup @ Jan. 20 2012,01:40)Mike,If it were worded “Give me the firstborn of the flock” that would mean every first offspring of every womb.That's correct, Kathi.  Which means that these firstborn are PART OF “the flock”, right?And it DOESN'T mean that these firstborn have “the flock” as their father, right?Quote (Lightenup @ Jan. 20…[Read more]
