Thought I would add this scripture. Ezekiel 8:1-31 In the sixth year, in the sixth month on the fifth day, while I was sitting in my house and the elders of Judah were sitting before me, the hand of the Sovereign LORD came upon me there. 2 I looked, and I saw a figure like that of a man. From what appeared to be his waist down he was like fire,…[Read more]

Philippians 26 Who, being in very nature God, did not consider equality with God something to be grasped, 7 but made himself nothing, taking the very nature of a servant, being made in human likeness. 8 And being found in appearance as a man, he humbled himself and became obedient to death even death on a cross! 9 Therefore God exalted him to the…[Read more]

Hi Ramblinrose, Good to see you back again.Haven’t heard from you in a while.

Yes there are examples of the firstborn not always being the actual firstborn in a time sense, but sometimes the the second, third .. born could inherit the firstborn status. But as you are aware, this is the exception rather than the rule. The word firstborn is a self explanatory compound, but there are examples where the firstborn loses his…[Read more]

I think that the Angels are creatures and therefore are created. They have bodies that must have been created, but I assume that their spirits came from God, like us.Where God’s Angels are told to worship God’s firstborn it seems to reflect the scripture in Revelation 5:11-1311 Then I looked and heard the voice of many angels, numbering thousands…[Read more]

Q: Did Jesus pre-exist in the literal sense or as a thought that was emodied in the flesh later on?A: I personally believe that Jesus pre-existed in the literal sense and later was embodied in the flesh so he could live as a man in order to redeem man. I do appreciate the evidence given for the other view however. I believe that Jesus existed…[Read more]

Q: Was Jesus Divine or Human? or Both? A: Yes Jesus is divine, but we must remember that there are many divinties and God is the supreme divinity. Jesus came from God and has the same divine nature and btw so should we who are being saved have the nature of God. See 2 Peter 1:4Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that…[Read more]

Q: Was Christ Eternal? A: Look at the following verse which contains the word begotten. Hebrews 11:17By faith Abraham, when he was tried, offered up Isaac: and he that had received the promises offered up his only begotten son, Now Jesus is known as the only begotten of the Father in many verses. Here are some of those verses. John 1:14, John…[Read more]

Q: Was Christ born before creation? A:  Colossians 1:15-1615 He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. 16 For by him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things were created by him and for him. This verse is quite clear…[Read more]

Q: Everything has an origin, why doesn't God? A: God is eternal and eternity doesn't have an origin, only finite things have an origin. Eternity is the origin. This is very hard for many to accept because being finite we do not understand infinite. But infinite is a different reality to finite, so you cannot use finite thinking and apply it to…[Read more]

Would you be interested in stating your case as to why baptism is essential for salvation. If so, you can start a new topic in the Biblical Questions forum in the SCRIPTURE & DOCTRINE section

The following is what the Law of God rests on.Matthew 2236 “Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the Law?” 37 Jesus replied: ” 'Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.'38 This is the first and greatest commandment. 39 And the second is like it: 'Love your neighbor as yourself.' 40 All the…[Read more]

No I haven’t.In what way did it change your view?

Yes it sounds like you have an obligation.Maybe you can give the Pastor some scriptures as to why you do not believe the trinity doctrine and ask him to explain them or to ask God about them.eg: 1 Corinthians 8:5-6 (English-NIV) 5 For even if there are so-called gods, whether in heaven or on earth (as indeed there are many gods and many lords), 6…[Read more]
