If your mind is in captivity then freely choose to read the scriptures which can renew your mind. The truth can set you free Gene. But you must love the truth.

Gene, it is nice to see you exercising your free will by choosing to post here once again.

I will make it simple for you. The universe is likely deterministic in that if you knew the the position of every particle then you could calculate the state of the universe at any given time according to the laws of physics. But consciousness is not…[Read more]

God makes choices possible and you choose.

There were two trees in the garden. God made these possible, but free choice remains.

The Australian media doesn’t seem as biased. Here is a good look from a distance.

Where have I ever said we don’t have freedom to excerise our wills’

Lol, you just said freewill in a round about way.

What topic would you like to discuss next Gene?

And of course it is good to see you demonstrate your free will once again by choosing to post here. Lol.

Yes of course. But there is still the battle between the spirit and flesh is there not?

And this is one example of free will. The flesh influencing you vs the Spirit leading a person with a renewed mind.

Prolaimer….. Jesus was the “firstborn”  to be given eternal life and enter the kingdom of God “from mankind”.

He came from the Father, and has ascended up to where he was before. He emptied himself, came in the flesh, to live as one of us so that he could save us. He even died and was taken up and we who listen to his voice will also be taken up.…[Read more]

Good work Berean. He was declared the son of God many times.

And we know that God created the universe through the son.

And if we take the meaning of son, then the one who was first to be with God would have come from God directly and be like him. And an apt title would be the son of God for the first.

Georgia is crucial

Free will is the choice among the influences.

God’s Spirit influences mankind as does the flesh. God enables you to choose despite desires and influences.

“When the enemy shall come in like a flood, the Spirit of the Lord shall lift up a standard against him.”

No excuses Gene.

Good scripture Carmel.

Jesus is clearly stating here that he came from above since he eventually ascended into Heaven to be at the right-hand of God.

Some more verses that show this is a mainstream teaching in scripture.

John 6:38-40
For I have come down from heaven, not to do my own will, but the will of him who sent me; and this is the will…[Read more]

Proclaimer,

29 For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren.

What is the image of the Son of God at this moment?

A HEAVENLY MAN is the image of God’s Son, a man born of the eternal Spirit is God’s Son.

A Son of Man sits right now at God’s right…

Yes Gene. Get with the program. Your rebuttals are completely missing the mark once again. Your argument has posed zero threat to what we believe regarding the scriptures. We are here to learn and open. But your repetitive arguments that miss the mark are having no impact on us learning anything new. Might be time to try something new perhaps.

THE Word was WITH God.

THE Word became FLESH.

HE was WITH God in the BEGINNING

THROUGH HIM all things were made

THROUGH THE SON, all things were made

HIS NAME IS The Word of God.

The Son is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. For in Him all things were created, things in heaven and on earth, visible and…[Read more]

You are hard of hearing Jodi.

Aware of their conversation, Jesus asked them, “Why are you debating about having no bread? Do you still not see or understand? Do you have such hard hearts? ‘Having eyes, do you not see? And having ears, do you not hear?’ And do you not remember?

We have said many times, that Jesus came as a man. He emptied himse…[Read more]

We all came in the flesh, except Adam and Eve. How does taking a preexisting being and killing him and cause he to be born through the flesh womb of a women

Is that why it says in scripture that all the prophets, kings, and others came in the flesh in scripture? Oh wait, it doesn’t say that. Only Jesus Christ.

Is that why it says that when…[Read more]
