Hi T8,

You suggest others need to love while you indulge in judgement?

Leave it to God.

Hi Ed,

The Spirit is as the finger of God.

Hi t8,

Those in Christ are one with him as he is with the Father.

No division.

Hi t8,

F rom your position of self appointed expert you have again misjudged the situation.

Christ means the anointed one.

He was anointed at the Jordan.

Scripture chooses to identify him as the Christ from birth.

There are no competing claims but it does not imply that he had previously been anointed as I am sure you understand.

Hi ED,

The answers do not fit your boxes.

Do you have any others?

Hi ED,

Your boxes do not work.

God is not His own Spirit.

Compare Mt 12.25 with Lk 11.20 and you will see the Spirit is as the finger of God.

And the Holy Spirit is the Spirit of the Father and the Son

Hi t8,

Get over yourself.

It is the truth that is important.

If you take on a teaching role watch your words.

Hi Ed,

Why are you confused?

God manifests in creation by His Spirit.

Hi KW,

You have to search for exceptions to justify your idea?

Hi KW ,

The context is the NT.

Only when the OT is quoted could there be confusion.

No one can say Jesus is Lord except by the Holy Spirit.

Hi KW,

Jesus Christ is Lord.

No confusion.

Hi KW,

You must be reborn of the Spirit before you can walk in the Spirit.

The Lord is Jesus Christ.

Hi KW,

Now the Lord is the Spirit and where the Spirit of the Lord is there is liberty

2cor 3.17

We will come to him

Jn 14.23

What do you believe?

Hi,

Before speaking of the foundation rock Jesus said to Simon Peter

Mt 16

Blessed are you, Simon Barjona, because flesh and blood did not reveal this to you, but my Father Who is in heaven

That is the context

And much of what he said next was repeated to the other disciples in Mt 18.18 f

Hi KW,

So both Jn 14 , Jn 15 and 16 speak of the Holy Spirit as the Spirit of truth and Jn 14 Jn 15 specify that it is the Spirit of the Father.

The Lord is now the Spirit and he too will come in that one Spirit.

Hi t8,

Despite claiming heavenly origins for this man you do not hear his spiritual language.

If a man was anointed by the Spirit to work for God why would he need a heavenly origin?

Did the prophets and apostles need a heavenly origin to do their work for God?

Hi t8,

Jn 8

You are not yet 50 years old and have you seen Abraham?

They saw and heard just a man.

So do you.

Hi T8,

Jesus came from God?

No you confuse the man with the Spirit of Christ that anointed him.

False teaching.

Hi T8,

Let me state it for you again.

Jesus is the Christ, the Son of the living God.

But you demand that I believe he was anointed prior to birth and that would deny what is written about the Jordan.

So kindly do not try to show me a liar and a deceiver.

Just because astrologers who read of his arrival in the stars recognised him proves n…[Read more]

Hi KW,

Self does not seem to be there.

Folks imagine it should be.
