Of course Albert Barnes and many others will say this simply because they are Trinitarian.

Here’s a question. How do you get vinegar from a sponge? Easy. First soak the Sponge in vinegar. This is how the Trinity is derived from scripture. Soak the mind with the doctrine of the Trinity. Now all verses are read through that lense.…[Read more]

Does 1 John 5:20 call Jesus the true God?
@heavenlyson

Praise, glory and honour be to Christ Jesus, “the brightness of God’s glory, and the express image of his person”, “the Word of Life”, that “eternal life, which was with the Father, and was manifested“ in flesh and blood and was “seen and heard” and “looked upon” and was “touched”, the “Son o…

Proclaimer. ….another what ? If Jesus said “that they might know “YOU” the “Only” true GOD” , it’s “obvious” he was not talking about himself being a “GOD” of anykind.

“ONLY” “TRUE” ……means “NO” OTHER IS A “TRUE” GOD.

“YOU”……..is alway directing the attintion toward someone else, other then the person speaking.

I can believe that this…

That’s right Proclaimer…now proclaim how many of those called “theos” in the Bible, do we need to know and follow and believe in for eternal life.

Now this is eternal life: that they know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent.

The one true God and another which is Jesus Christ.

New Zealand could have done so much better. We actually could have stopped the virus entering our country altogether and then not suffered such a strict lock-down and economic hit.

If Jesus says ‘ye are theos’, then so be it.

YOU: He is now in the glory that he (ME: JESUS CHRIST GODMAN) had before he came to Earth.

Are you claiming to be the one?

Proclaimer. …Jesus said clearly ” the words he was telling us was “not” his words, BUT, the words of him who sent him. So if the words he was telling us weren’t “his” words, how do you say he “is” the word of God “himself”?

A good reason to be called the Word of God don’t you think?

Your understanding seems blurred when it comes to a person vs…[Read more]

Further, he emptied himself and came as a man in the flesh and humbled himself and died for our sins. In this, the son learned obedience which is not to say that he was not obedient to begin with, but that he had to trust God for everything as he was a helpless human. Now he is with the Father in the glory that he had with him before the cosmos.…[Read more]

Let’s combine a few passages,

And ignore the more difficult scriptures.

Antichrist = denying Jesus Christ came in the flesh or that he is the Son of God. Two doctrines do this:

1. The Trinity teaches that Jesus is God and God came in the flesh. It does away with him being the Son and makes him God.
2. Saying that Jesus is a man only denies his origin as the Word and Son that God created all things through.

The truth…[Read more]

Coming from the only level 4 lab in China doesn’t rule out the virus came from an animal. These labs have many dangerous and deadly strains of viruses that came from animals. For example, if Ebola broke out in China, that would likely come from a lab, even though the original Ebola was likely animal borne.

Thanks Ed J. I’ll take a look tonight.

I just can’t get over the coincidence that Wuhan is the only place in China with a level 4 biosecurity lab.

New Zealand free of Covid-19

Yes, a lot of interesting points brought up in the video. Was quiet shocked to learn that only the top 1% really pay tax when we consider the benefits that lower income brackets get back from those taxes.

We can speculate till the cows come home about that.

Another option would be that man was destined to eat from that tree, but needed to be more spiritually mature. Eating it too early would result in death because it would wield us too much power in our immature state. Like giving a kid a car.

Of course there is also the option that God…[Read more]
