Amen to that.

Proclaimer…….I guess MOSES was a Moslim then, because he said this, “the LORD your God shall raise up unto you from your brethern a “PROPHET” like unto me, unto him shall you heed”.

Gene, something is blocking your understanding because you always get the wrong end of the stick. You are forever getting the opposite meaning to something.…[Read more]

Danny. We are inferior to Jesus, yet he calls us brothers and we get a body and nature like his.

Clearly we cannot claim to be equal in rank to the son despite having the same nature right?

Likewise with God. You cannot claim that Jesus is equal in rank with the Most High God.

And in case you had any doubt, Jesus himself told us that the…[Read more]

Jesus has the same exact nature as his Father.

He is not an inferior being to his Father any more than we are inferior beings to our parents.

I really hope that you will understand. Thank you for your time and goodbye.

We know that the head of Christ is God. This alone shows that there is one greater than himself.  So what does Jesus himself…[Read more]

INSIDE JOE BIDEN’S CORRUPTION SCANDAL AND THE SOCIAL MEDIA COVER-UP

Very good Danny.

The Bible calls Jesus “only begotten“. I’ll stick with the Bible!

Good to hear. Great advice.

Proclaimer,  Jesus was not the “only” one that came from God,  “ADAM AND EVE” CAME “DIRECTLY” FROM GOD.

Eve came through Adam and Adam was created from things already created like the dust of the earth. The spirit that made him a living soul came from God.

Jesus was born through Mary because he came in the flesh. Before that, he was sent from…[Read more]

Gene. Nothing you have said in your previous post is relevant to the discussion here. We will continue to put our trust in the one God sent from Heaven, the firstborn of all creation and the image of the invisible God.

Who are you to demote and  redefine Jesus the son of God.

He is now with the Father in the glory he had with him before the…[Read more]

Yes Danny. He is the only one to come directly from the Father. While we are born into the family and become children of God by the new birth, Jesus will always be the first among us and the head.

The point is that we are one of him and he calls us brothers. He is not God.

Obviously he was the only one but because of him. we are now born from God ourselves and not by flesh and blood. He calls us brothers but he is and always will be the prototype son.

And yes, he will always be the only one to come directly from God.  I think we both agree with that. Whereas we came from Adam, but have abandoned that lineage by…[Read more]

Gene Gene Gene, how long shall we suffer you?

So true Ed J.

They put their trust in a man like Adam.

But we should put our trust in the son of the living God himself. The image of the invisible God and firstborn of all creation.

Well, Proclaimer,  I gess that’s better the being called a worm,  like Jacob was called,  Or Belsabob and a devil,  drunkard, gluttion , bastard,  like Jesus was called.

Gene. A beast has a nature and it does what that nature wants. But God and those born of him are higher than a beast. We can choose and this is no more exemplified than God puttin…[Read more]

This answers your questions Danny. In short, Jesus is our brother and we will have a body like his. If we are not divine and do not possess divine nature but remain in the flesh, we will die. So let’s be clear. We will have a resurrection body. Currently yes, we have divine nature, except with our body as we are present in the flesh. We will be…[Read more]

2 Peter 1:4…The Geneva Study Bible commentary says:
“By the divine nature he means not the substance of the Godhead, but the partaking of those qualities, by which the image of God is restored in us.”

Only Jesus shares the exact same nature as His Father. Because Jesus is the ONLY begotten of the Father. John 1:14

I am not so sure about that…[Read more]

But does this mean that the husband is a superior being to his wife?
The answer is obviously, “No.” The husband is greater than his wife by way of position but not by nature.
The same applies to the Father and the Son. The Father is greater by position, but not better by nature.

This was precisely the point I was making. Identity vs nat…[Read more]
