Hi,

YLT

lk 7

47 therefore I say to thee, her many sins have been forgiven, because she did love much; but to whom little is forgiven, little he doth love.’

So there is a relationship between  forgiveness and the resultant gratitude expressed in love is well shown

The wording used is awkward for us.

Hi ,

In context

Lk7.41

” A moneylender had two debtors;one owed 500 denarii  and the other 50.

When they were unable to pay, he graciously forgave them both. So which of them will love him more?”

”for she loved much”

25 agapao from agape

Love

There is no use of this word for LUST

Hi T8,

So is your confession about Jesus that he was a godly being before his conception?

Hi GB,

Spirit=intellect according to you.

Where are the scriptures?

Hi,

Acts 2.26f

“Therefore my heart was glad and my tongue exulted;moreover my flesh will also live in hope because you will not abandon my soul to Hades nor allow your holy one to undergo decay”

Acts 2.31

“He was neither abandoned to Hades nor did his flesh decay”

Hi KW,

Stopping sinning is the inevitable result of being led by the Spirit.

The sons of God are led by the Spirit of God.

Hi C,

My words are Spirit and life.

Nothing is hidden from the Spirit of creation.

The testimony of Jesus is the Spirit of prophecy-the word.

Hi t8,

Have this attitude in yourselves which was also in Christ Jesus, who, although He existed in the form of God, did not regard equality with God a thing to be grasped, but emptied Himself, taking the form of a bond-servant, and being made in the likeness of men. Being found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself by becoming obedient to…[Read more]

Hi t8,

Yes the Word was God.

Hi t8,

Yes the Word was God.

hi davidl,

Scripture repeats the concept of God being IN Christ.

God was IN CHRIST reconciling the world to himself. 2cor 5.19

So does that make Christ GOD?

Again

God is at work IN YOU to will and to do.

Does that make YOU GOD?

It was the Father’s good pleasure for all the fullness to DWELL IN HIM and through him to reconcile all…[Read more]

Hi davidl,

It seems you are the one into self deception.

IN Jesus means just that.

And I do not deny the son of God.

Perhaps you do when you elevate him to be his own god?

Hi Andrew,

Seek ye first the kingdom of God and everything else will be added to you.

You are in the audience listening to Peter in Acts 2.38f

Nothing has changed

Hi ,

The Word was God.

God is Spirit.

The Word is the Spirit of Christ

hi Hazz,

Welcome.

Put aside what trinitarians have taught you about the Spirit. They try to divide God from His Spirit.

They originally decided God was a binity and then thought the Spirit should be added in.

You have a spirit. Without your spirit you would be dead. james 2.26

God has a Spirit too.

God is never separate from His…[Read more]

Hi davidh,

So the fullness of Deity was in Jesus.

I agree.

A wonderful vessel for God to use for His purposes.

The flesh contributes nothing.

So leave the folly of trinity behind.

hi ED,

It is a religion of man.

Governed by the fear of man.

Hi Andrew,

Remember is was the Spirit in Jesus, the Word, that was speaking when Jesus preached and taught.

So what Jesus said about his origins actually applies to the Word that was with God.

Hi ED,

The serpent was already in the garden before the arrival of Adam.

What happened is a clear indication that in his natural state man is unable to deal with the god of this world.

Adam submitted to that god and rebelled against the True God cutting all his descendants off  from the simple communion with God that he had enjoyed.

Sin in…[Read more]

Hi ED,

That would be impossibly frightening for them.
