Hi T8,

Still getting confused about the abilities of the prophetic Spirit?

Carnal men do.

Hi Carmel,

Acts 2.22

Men of Israel, listen to these words; Jesus the Nazarene, a man attested to you by God

with miracles and wonders and signs which God performed through him in your midst,

just as you yourselves know..

Wake up and ascribe the glory to his Father.

Hi Ed,

Your question is for philosophers and godless theologians.

John was a prophet and he recognised the future appointment of Jesus.

1peter1.11f

Hi t8,

Where did you get the idea that to be greater Jesus needed to be anointed first?

Just part of your confusion issue?

The Spirit of Christ was before John, from eternity.

Hi T8,

You may  feel clever to make scripture argue with scripture but it is not wise.

Listen to the Spirit.

Hi T8,

Lk 1.15

For he will be great in the sight of the Lord, and he will drink no wine or liquor;

and he will be filled with the Holy Spirit while yet in his mother’s womb.

Scripture says this about John but not about Jesus.

Hi t8,

Should we be grateful for your fatherly concern?

No you should rather watch yourself and watch your teaching.

We have a Father.

Hi T8,

Well done.

Scripture is the source.

Do you rely on logic and inference instead?

Hi T8,

Do you worry about others when you should worry about your situation?

Hi T8,

Do you recognise those who love and are you among them?

Hi T8,

John was born anointed as scripture tells us he was.

It is not a measure of greatness.

Find it written.

Hi T8,

Be careful that we do not preach that this man was not born anointed?

Nonsense.

Hi T8,

You make a few assumptions of your own.

You assume the Word always was the Son of God.

You assume Jesus is the Word that was with God in the beginning

You assume the sending of the Son into the world proves he existed before birth.

There is only thin and unspiritual evidence for these assumptions.

Hi TC,

Baptism is just symbolic?

No it is a plea to God for a clean conscience.1peter 3  It is asking God for forgiveness..Acts 2

What is important to God becomes mere throwaway symbolism in the minds of wayward men.

Hi TC,

Several times God declared that Jesus Christ was His Son.

Why would you imagine that Jesus became His Son every time men were told?

Hi TC,

Perspective.

Earthly perspective-

‘Jesus of Nazareth was anointed with the Holy Spirit and went about doing good and healing all who were oppressed by the devil, for God was with him’

Heavenly perspective-

’The Word was made flesh and dwelt amongst us’

Flesh contributes nothing. It is all about the Spirit of God.

’Jesus Christ is…[Read more]

Hi T8,

Accused..Condemned?

Get over yourself. It is not about YOU.

Hi T8,

No YOU are involved.

YOU have offered us YOUR interpretation and claim it is infallible.

Why not grow up and listen to the Spirit of Truth and you may get closer to being always correct?

Hi T8,

Lk 2.10

Do not be afraid; for Behold I bring you good news of great joy which will be for all the people.

For today in the city of David there has been born for you a saviour who is Christ the Lord.

This will be a sign for you: you will find a baby wrapped in cloths and lying in a manger.

Yes the appointed Saviour, the Lord and…[Read more]

Hi Princess,

You need air to breathe but the air is not the spiritual wind.

You need water to live but the water is not the spiritual river.

1peter 1.24

All flesh is like grass, and it’s glory like the flower of grass.

The grass withers, and the flower falls off,

but the word of the Lord endures forever.
