Quote (Lightenup @ Dec. 27 2011,21:10)If you are going to use a proper name in the first instance, then a proper name is fitting for the second instance.And using “God” as a proper name for the Omniscient Creator of all things means we use “Jesus” as the second name.  God (the PERSON) beget Jesus.  OR……………God (the PERSON) beget A g…[Read more]

Quote (Lightenup @ Dec. 27 2011,20:58)Quote (mikeboll64 @ Dec. 27 2011,20:17)What scholars mention “YHWH the Son” – just out of curiosity?Mike,John Gill is who I recall off the top of my head.KathiCan you post a BRIEF part of the writing in which he mentions “Jehovah the Son”?

And when Jesus prayed to God, Gene? Was it the “word/light/God Himself” inside of Jesus praying to Himself?Or do you just get to pick and choose which times it was God speaking directly, and which times it was Jesus speaking?

Hi Mark,I'm not trying to be unreasonable with you. But Gene and Ed have asked me this many times in many different ways before. And my answer remains the same: I am NOT my own word(s).

Ed, Is it possible that there are more than one meaning of “word” in the scriptures? Could it mean “Spokesman of God” in one verse, and refer to a word that God spoke in another?Or must every instance of “word” mean exactly the same thing in scripture?

Quote (mikeangel @ Dec. 28 2011,06:15)9 Jesus answered: “Don’t you know me, Philip, even after I have been among you such a long time? Anyone who has seen me has seen the Father.To us he is. He came straight from the Father,Wait a minute, Mark.The verse says “has seen THE FATHER“. Do you believe that Jesus is his own Father?BEING the Father and…[Read more]

Quote (bodhitharta @ Dec. 28 2011,18:41)unless perhaps you are referring to a different perspective such as to say “and was dead” in the context of thought to be dead but I am alive. But of course that is speculation on my part.At least you admit your speculation. Asana, if it said “thought to be dead”, then I would believe “thought to be dead”.…[Read more]

(Rev.19:13) What comes out of his mouth is a sword called “The Word” of God.Is it not plain for you to see that “The Word” is the spirit's sword?   <– Please answer; OK?I was sure that earlier you said that the Holy…[Read more]

Good posts t8 and Asana!Tim, Asana is right on point, for it was you who said, It would make perfect sense that as brain power became more important to survival than strength, strength would “devolve”.Perfect “sense” to WHOM? Evolution is not purpose driven, remember? And it seems to me that the one who increased in both muscular strength AND…[Read more]

Quote (Marlin1 @ Dec. 25 2011,17:52) I am glad that you can see that the Name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit is the Lord Jesus Christ.

Quote (carmel @ Dec. 28 2011,13:39)Mike, By saying that you agreed with me!you better define it,so we could understand each otherCharles,Which will you be to God? A brother? Or a son? Which one does the Bible say?And which will you be to Jesus? A brother? Or a son? Which one does the Bible say?I don't think we agree here.

Quote (carmel @ Dec. 28 2011,00:43)It is Hebrews 2:11,and Hebrews 2:13Now I excpect you to define it yourself, in order to find the truth.Heb 210 In bringing many sons to glory, it was fitting that God, for whom and through whom everything exists, should make the author of their salvation perfect through suffering. 11 Both the one who makes men…[Read more]

Quote (seekingtruth @ Dec. 28 2011,11:43)My two cents, spirits do not have bodies, spiritual beings do. My opinion – WmWm,Do you include angels and demons into “spiritual beings”? I call them “spirit beings”, although they are often simply called “spirits” in scripture. Just like we can either say “humans” or “human beings”.

Quote (toby @ Dec. 28 2011,16:04)And how did we suddenly arrive at Jesus in Heaven as Spirit from defining meanings of SpiritBecause you said spirits don't have bodies, and Jesus became a life-giving spirit. So, do you think Jesus has a body in heaven?

Don't you have a couple of questions waiting for you, jammin?1. Can you show a scripture where Jesus himself claims that he is God Almighty?2. Does God Almighty have a God of His own?
