Mankind Ed.God put emnity between serpents and human beings from that day forward. Men step on vipers, bruising their heads. And vipers bite men as they're walking along, bruising their heels.It has been an ongoing life and death battle between men and snakes. They kill some of us, we kill some of them.peace,mike

Quote (SimplyForgiven @ Aug. 09 2011,14:48)It is clear this is Jesus, for He says He died, and “behold, I am alive for evermore.” He also says He has the keys to hell and death. Now, Who other than God can say that? “He that is our God is the God of salvation, and unto God the LORD belong the issues from death” (Psalms 68:20).Romans 6:9For we know…[Read more]

Quote (kerwin @ Aug. 08 2011,23:24)That is not what the letter of John 1:14 teaches as John 1:14 compares the glory of the Word made flesh to the glory of the only begotten of God.I believe the Word was made human by the Spirit of God uniting with the human human being Jesus.Okay Kerwin,So if the Word made flesh is the unity of God's Spirit and…[Read more]

Quote (shimmer @ Aug. 08 2011,22:36)I HAVE answered your questions, I'm sure Mike. It's just you don't know or understand my answers. Just like the one I gave you above. To you, it won't directly answer your question. However, you have to understand what I'm meaning or trying to say. What I'm saying is that you complicate things too much.Hi…[Read more]

Quote (kerwin @ Aug. 09 2011,05:23)If you mean a unity that is composed of interrelated parts then that describes the unity of the Spirit as put forth in Ephesians 4:3-7 which is composed of one God, One Lord, One Spirit, and one body. The Spirit of God is what connects them all together which is why it is called the unity of the spirit.And the…[Read more]

Quote (kerwin @ Aug. 09 2011,05:23)I chose to avoid any speculationsOkay then. Don't speculate. Just answer the question from Jesus that the Pharisees couldn't:Kerwin, if then David calls him ‘Lord,’ how can he be his son?I can answer the question, Kerwin. Can you?

Jack,Who were the sons of God that shouted for joy when God laid the foundations of the earth?

Hi Ed,YES, Satan is most definitely a god to me. He holds much sway over nature, and the affairs of human beings, not to mention the third of God's angels who followed him in his rebellion.He is not MY god, nor would I ever worship him. But he is, nevertheless, a god, in every sense of the word.And since I don't know who all the other gods are,…[Read more]

Quote (Paladin @ Aug. 09 2011,13:18)Christ was firstborn from the dead, therefore, firstborn of the new creation.Hey Gene,It seems that your Pal doesn't agree that “firstborn” is a position of power for Jesus. He seems to think that “firstborn” literally means “the one born first” of the new creation.I also agree that “firstborn”, in the case of…[Read more]

No Ed,Actually that is MY question to YOU in the other thread. Since there is no doubt that Jehovah is the God OF gods, exactly who are these gods that Jehovah is the God OF?I know that Jesus is one of them, being the “only begotten god” (John 1:18) and the god who was with THE God in the beginning. (John 1:1)And I know that Satan is one of them,…[Read more]

Quote (kerwin @ Aug. 08 2011,22:49)So Jesus had a 100% spirit body and a 100% human body when he walked this earth so long ago?Jesus was made flesh, Kerwin.  I assume he had 100% flesh body while on earth.But who was his REAL Father, Kerwin?  It was God, who impregnated Mary via His Holy Spirit, right?And since Mary is a descendant of David, t…[Read more]

Quote (kerwin @ Aug. 08 2011,11:36)Mike,You wrote to Pierre,Quote Luke 24:39Look at my hands and my feet. It is I myself!

Quote (terraricca @ Aug. 07 2011,20:12)MikeI agree ,and this also changed my mind;the priest shall have to himself the skin of the burnt offering which he hath offered.Good point Pierre,In fact, the way I understand it, the whole sheep or goat or ram or bull was sacrificed to God, but only a small portion went up in smoke.  The rest was used for…[Read more]

Quote (shimmer @ Aug. 08 2011,19:58)The question you are asking Gene does not make sense, and does not prove anything. Just because the Disciples “thought they say a Ghost” does not prove spirits or God has a body.But the fact that Jesus corrected them, NOT BY TELLING THEM THAT SPIRITS DON'T HAVE BODIES AT ALL, but by telling them that spirits…[Read more]
