When I state something followed by “my opinion” I''m saying that it is to the best of my understanding and I'm submitting it for discussion to better understand truth, if I state things as facts, then I'm teaching.Wm

Jerry,The word you show as evil is 'Ra' in Hebrew and is translated as – adversity, affliction, bad, calamity, displeasure, distress. Yes God truly does bring this on those who oppose Him. But that is far from creating evil.My opinion – Wm

Stu,As to the sun coming along on the 4th day some believe that refers to the clearing of the sky so it became visible from earth, but it was there from day one. Others believe that the light (possibly the Son not the sun) referred to on day 1 could sustain the plant life much as referred to in Revelation where it says we will have no need of the…[Read more]

Stu,I'm sure your asking, knowing that we will respond with the moon so you can then smugly point out that the moon is not a source of light but only reflects the sun. I would like to point out that the majority of the light from a flashlight is also reflected light but we refer to it as light.WmSorry if I misjudged you but it is obvious you take…[Read more]

So what! the second greatest threat is North Korea, chalk one up for atheism.

JustAskin,I agree no angel true to God would accept worship (never said they would) but neither should the Son of God if it also was inappropriateWorship to me, is obedience and an attitude of adoration and trust that can lead to singing, praising, and prayer, acknowledging the surpassing greatness of the Father for more then just who He is and…[Read more]

Quote (JustAskin @ Feb. 17 2010,17:49)SeekingTruth,Without going into to much expansion: Yes, Jesus spoke the words of his father 'of his own free will' BECAUSE that is the right thing for him to do and he always does the right thing.  There is no comflict – there is no issue.

Quote (Gene @ Feb. 16 2010,23:54)ST……….Thomas saw that GOD the FATHER was (IN) Jesus and He acknowledged it when He said My Lord (Jesus) (AND) My GOD, both were present in the vessel or temple of Jesus' Body.

I believe that when Thomas saw Jesus he realized that he was seeing the expression of the Father in bodily form (when you've seen me you've seen the Father). After the resurrection Jesus was no longer merely a man (made Him for a little while lower then the angels) but, having all power and authority given to Him by the Father, having the nature…[Read more]

Nick,Kathi has not added to scripture, only repeated it, is your problem with scripture? There are many verses that say Jesus is God, however none that say He was, or is, equal to the Father. It was the Father who gave Him all authority and power and is the source, so if one worships the Son it only passes through to the Father. As my practice I…[Read more]

Kathi,I agree, I believe that the “first born of all creation” comes from when the Father, having determined to create our corporeal reality, spoke it into existence. That is, from outside our reality He established the framework (namely time and 3D space) and at the point where our dimension first began to exist the essence of the Father…[Read more]

I think Georg deserves an atta-boy for putting his money down to further truth by providing his insights to others or if nothing else to provoke someone to search to prove him wrong. I applaud his efforts, it is not a money making venture the best he can do is contain his costs. However I do not have a problem with making money as the scriptures…[Read more]

3.14,I always thought of it along the lines of -Wisdom is how things relate -Knowledge is how things work -Understanding is a mixture of bothOr what we taught our kids: you can be wise but not smart, you can be smart but not wise, but a man with understanding has both.My opinion – Wm

The Lord will surely exalt those who humble themselves. I believe it is love that will make us aware of how we are dealing with others and of course love sums up a true Christians walk, be blessed brother, neither of us has all truth but the closer we draw to the Lord the more our differences will disappear.I appreciate your being here, Wm
