Re: Jesus is God
Darin, Could you 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 t...

Re: Jesus is God
Sure there are other usages of exerchomai, but the meaning of the word is still the same - "to come out of". I never suggested otherwise. The only difference in the usages is what thing or person is coming out of what other thing or person. So that's a moot point. You're simply wrong about that - a...

Re: Jesus is God
John 17:2 - Notice that Jesus was given authority over all flesh EVEN BEFORE He was raised from the dead. - Matthew 28:18 John 17:8 - " ...they (the disciples) ... have known surely that I CAME FORTH FROM (or literally came out of) YOU. The Greek word is "exerchomai" (1831 in the Strong's Concordan...

Re: Jesus is God
Jesus is so pure, so loving, so kind, so merciful, so unselfish, so humble, so generous, so patient, so meek, so gracious, so peaceful, so good, so faithful, so unblemished, so Holy, that it is impossible that He could not be God. ONLY God could be all of those - but Jesus is even more besides all o...

Re: Jesus is God
Try your ice and cup comparison with a different verse: Jesus said, "I am in the Father and the Father is in Me." Would you say "The ice is in the cup and the cup is in the ice."? You can't actually say that, going by the laws of science. Obviously the Godhead or the Trinity is not bound by the law...

Re: Jesus is God
Dwight - No, I don't see that there is a distinction between the two. It's just grammar - you truly don't see any distinction at all? If I fill a cup with ice, that's different than saying I have a cup made from ice (that just "is" ice). You can't accurately compare ice and a cup to the Godhead and...

Re: Jesus is God
Are you not capable of a rational discussion without a personal attack? I have said no such thing. I'm sorry if you took it that way. I did not mean that as a personal attack, just my opinion, given that you don't believe Jesus is God. The "ALL CAPS" does not mean I'm angry or yelling or anything l...
