Re: Jesus is God
Jesus said: "I say to you that likewise there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine just persons who need no repentance." Luke 15:7 How is it possible that Jesus knows whats going on in heaven when a sinner repents? He didn't say, "Thus says the Lord", so it wa...

Re: Jesus is God
The gospel means "good news". In the New Testament "the gospel of God" and the "the gospel of Jesus" are used interchangeably. Because the good news of Jesus IS the good news of God. And because Jesus IS God. Mark 1:1 gospel of God; 1:14 gospel of God Acts 20:24 gospel of the grace of God Romans 1:1...

Re: Dual Natures
To justify nonsense is itself nonsense. Our minds are not "handicapped by material reality". Our words are not "carnal baggage". Paul and all the writers of scripture did not talk like you. Jesus Himself did not talk like you. Our "instruction manual" is the Bible. If your words do not sound like wh...

Re: Paul., Jesus, Lord & Yahweh
Romans 10:8-13 8 But what does it say? “The word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart”—that is, the word of faith which we are preaching, 9 that if you confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved; 10 for with the hear...

Re: Jesus is God
Luke 12:5 Jesus is telling them not to fear the one who kills the body. "But I will show you whom you should fear: fear Him who, after He has killed, has power to cast into hell; yes, I say to you, fear Him!" But who has authority to cast into hell? Because He is the one that we should fear. Jesus t...

Re: Dual Natures
Hi Dwight, Since you replied to my post I'll respect your “interest” with a reply, but I do want, as much as it lies with me, to avoid saying anything to stir up, unnecessarily, your “displeasure.” Neither one of us wants a repeat of the fallout of our last attempt at a “meeting of the minds.” DWIG...

Re: Dual Natures
Curious what thoughts those might have on the so-called dual nature of Christ - those who hold to this, do you see the dual nature of Christ as having two persons within Christ in the same way Christ is one of the three persons of the Trinity? If not, why not? I don't think that the Bible says that...

Re: Dual Natures
Otherness, no offense is meant, but "wading" through your post is like walking through a blizzard where you can't see three feet ahead of you - except for the bitter cold! I've said this to you before - but you need to learn to speak the same language as the rest of us "earthlings". Are you married ...

Re: Jesus is God
Could anyone explain why the Lamb of God (Jesus) in Revelation 5 DOES NOT bow down and worship the One who sits on the throne (God the Father)? Millions of angels, the four living creatures, the twenty-four elders, and every created thing in heaven and on the earth and under the earth, and all that ...

Re: Jesus is God
You're simply wrong about that - all usage doesn't imply that. Okay, since there's a wide range, maybe you could show me, let's say, half a dozen that don't mean that. I'll leave that to you - it's a simple exercise with a concordance - don't neglect forms like exelthon - the basic idea is proceedi...
