How do you see these scriptures?
John 1:1-3 & 14
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was with God in the beginning. Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made….The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory o…[Read more]

@sonofgod Welcome SOG,
You misunderstand Romans 10. The book of Romans, like all the apostolic letters, was written to the saved,
and not the to the unsaved telling them the way of salvation, as Romans 1 shows.
Like Galatians, Romans was specifically targeted to the new Jewish converts and Romans 10 tells them how to
put their faith into action…[Read more]Proclaimer replied to the topic The mystery of Melchizedek in the forum Truth or Tradition 7 years, 1 month ago

Some people like to link Jesus as a man, the son of God to being a “mere man”
However, man was not designed to be mere, he was designed to have dominion over the earth.
But mere man compared to God right?

So you agree then that all those in the bible called sons of God are sons of God?
bodhitharta replied to the topic God has no son/God has no gender to be a Father/God is GOD in the forum Faith 9 years, 8 months ago
God knows what He is talking about.
Since God is referred to as Father in His word, He is the Father to all those who are His sons and daughters.
The OT sons and daughters were not sons by seed but by adoption.
The angels are referred to as sons of God because God created them.
Then everything being is God’s son because he…[Read more]

I tend to think of God as a mind or personality and his spirit is his essence.
So while the Father may be in Heaven, by his Spirit, he can dwell in all creation including us.So yes God is the Spirit as you say.

Where in scripture does it say that
He can make a man from an already existing spirit being.
Why would he?God created Eve from Adam. Eve is part of man. Eve was adam/man. So while man is the head of woman, Christ is the head of the man.
However, I am not sure of the point. Who is saying that God created Jesus from another person?…[Read more]

Good post @sonofGod.
We have a body, soul, and spirit. The whole is our being I suppose.
And our spirits bear witness with God’s Spirit that we are the sons of God.
Thus, the Spirit of God is what gives us life eternal. It is this eternal connection with God that gives us eternal life.
