Quote (SimplyForgiven @ April 07 2011,13:22)What if T8, that You and Mike disagree on an issue. Are you stilll walking in truth?SF.Walking in truth doesn't equate to having truth in all things. This is something that God possesses and we try to possess truth as God gives it to us through his son.

Quote (Kangaroo Jack Jr. @ April 08 2011,03:22)t8:Quote Now read carefully the NIV 1 John 5:20 20 We know also that the Son of God has come and has given us understanding, so that we may know him who is true. And we are in him who is true by being in his Son Jesus Christ. He is the true God and eternal life.We are in him who is true, (God) by…[Read more]

Quote (Kangaroo Jack Jr. @ April 08 2011,03:22)t8:Quote John 17:3 Now this is eternal life: that they may know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent.John 17:3 gives you a key in unlocking the true meaning of 1 John 5:20John 17:3 is NOT the “key” to unlocking 1 John 5:20. The “key” is Philippians 2. Paul essentially said that…[Read more]

Quote (Kangaroo Jack Jr. @ April 08 2011,03:22)Why are you making me repeat this stuff t8? The “laws of exegesis” require that the appellations “the true God” and “the eternal life” be applied to Christ because (1) There is only ONE person who is called by both appellations and (2) it was Jesus Christ John had just mentioned and (3) the second…[Read more]

Quote (Kangaroo Jack Jr. @ April 08 2011,03:22)t8 said:Quote “I pray that they will know the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom you have sent”.Jesus said this BEFORE He had returned to the glory He had with the Father before the world began.Jesus called the Father “his God” after his resurrection and while in glory and you will see that it is…[Read more]

OK before I reply to your points in your last post, I need to ask 2 questions again, that you appear to be dodging.I require that they are answered in this debate. Please just the answer, I don't need an essay. This is not a burdensome request and should take about 1 minute of your time.1) Who is the son mentioned in 1 John 5:20 ?2) Who is the one…[Read more]

I think Kathi's post/PM is good and what she said is fair and true.As a moderator I do have to chastise someone for divulging a PM as they are meant to be personal, but Kathi only showed the content that she wrote which she has every right to make public and so she hasn't erred here either from what I can see.Also, I have to agree that I too…[Read more]

I should also say that there are scriptures or events that are quoted more than once in the bible and one says angel/angels and in another biblical book it says man/men.

Quote (kerwin @ April 07 2011,20:57)I am not seeing where we are disagreeing.Are you instead just providing further examples?I just assumed that you believed that angels were exclusively Seraphs and Cherubs given this statement of yours.Quote Prophets of God are messengers of God and are not angels.I was pointing out that many are called angels…[Read more]

Quote (SimplyForgiven @ April 04 2011,05:00)Mike, You said yourself that the word angel simply means “Messenger”. So therefore Gal 4:14 only emphasizes that point of importance but doesnt mention that Jesus, the Son of God is a “angelic being”Where in scripture does it say, “angelic being”?Angels are not a race or species.

Quote (kerwin @ April 07 2011,15:49)You first point has nothing to do with proving or disproving that Jesus is an angel of God since there are some angels given other duties but serving as messengers for God.  We simply do not have many dealing with them.  The angels guarding the Garden of Eden are an example of such.  Prophets of God are me…[Read more]

Quote (SimplyForgiven @ April 07 2011,14:51)lol what a coward.You need to prove that Jesus is an “angelic being” and you have only posted one scripture.Even if one scripture says that he is an angel, then that is enough.Also, when you look up the word angel, and look at its usage, then you can see that an angel is not always a small baby being who…[Read more]

Quote (TimothyVI @ Mar. 19 2011,21:19)Hi T8Does the fact that all of these scientists lived in the 1800s have any significance?Here are just a couple of quotes from Albert Einstein.It was, of course, a lie what you read about my religious convictions, a lie which is being systematically repeated. I do not believe in a personal God and I have never…[Read more]

Mike, if these guys are hard of hearing, then it is their choice.Our obligation is to stay on the true path.We are not responsible for those who err from truth.That said, we are obliged to speak the truth and hopefully the truth falls into good soil.Praise God for his truth.

Quote (Kangaroo Jack Jr. @ April 06 2011,09:35)Keith,Exactly! The distinction in 1 Corinthians 8:6 is one of function and nothing more. The fact that it cannot be inferred that the Father is not Lord proves it.JackThe true confession is that Jesus is Lord and the Father is God.and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God…[Read more]

Hi SF.Covering all bases.There is usually more than one possible reason for something, and if one explanation is given, then I like to balance that with another possible explanation.

Oh yeah, I should say that I have reopened the debate.Thanks for letting me know your intentions.

People are uptight because too many times people ignore good questions and arguments that prove people wrong.We are just trying to get people to be responsible for their teachings.Also, we are now getting tougher with making people responsible for what they teach. Back then, it was more relaxed, but that led to abuse which BTW, I do not consider…[Read more]

Quote (SimplyForgiven @ April 06 2011,12:56)Hahahaha! WJ, You should see my other posts where im callling him the “Godfather” lol!thats so funny that we came up with the same idea about mike.Maybe its just a spiritual truth that was revealed here, through two wittnesses at different times haha.But if the witnesses were Pharisees, then you could…[Read more]

Quote (Kangaroo Jack Jr. @ April 07 2011,09:29)I have had enough of formal debates anyway. I just want to post freely without any obligations.My opinion as to why you said this is because you are not winning any or most of the debates. I bet if you were winning your debates that you would never have said this.It looks to me like this is your way…[Read more]
