Oh boy!!!! You are tedious! The age old “95% truth - 5% lie” trick!!!
Is not the high priest the one who mediated between God and Man? When did Jesus become the high priest of God? Was it not when he entered the inner sanctum of Heaven after he was resurrected from the dead, purified and...
What do you mean, WILL BE?!
Jesus Christ was a mediator on earth, dwelling amongst men. And, he continues to mediate.
Once again, you appear to miss the point. God the Father is unseen, but the Word/Christ is seen.
God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and power. This happened...
Oh dear, you are all over the place.
The spirit of God was not ‘Dwelling on earth’. It was in the heart and minds of those who are believers, strengthening them, encouraging them, reminding them, providing for them.
The spirit of God influences the spirit of individuals and it us up to the...
If you begin with the premise that God cannot dwell on earth as a man, then you will forever be perplexed by verses that clearly demonstrate that the Father's Spirit was in the Son, Jesus.
John 2:19. 'Jesus answered and said unto them, Destroy this temple, and in three days l will raise it up'...
Genesis 12:3 --- All peoples on earth will be blessed through Abraham.
Genesis 22:18 --- All nations on earth will be blessed through Abraham’s offspring.
Psalms 22:27 --- All the ends of the earth and all the families of the nations will acknowledge God.
Psalms 65:2 --- All men will come to...
My summary does not fail. I am completely aware that Jesus received the fullness of God (his Father) Spirit. This is also why it is evidence that Jesus is not God: if he were he would already have the same power and authority that his Father has and would have no need of receiving it from his...
This is where your summary fails to take account of scripture. When the Holy Spirit descended upon Jesus during baptism it descended in full, without measure [John 3:34]. But when the Holy Spirit descends upon the Church 'he divides severally as he wills' [1 Cor.12:11]. No one individual...
I looked at what Jesus said at John and see the expression "I always do what is pleasing to the Father." That is very sure evidence (to me) that Jesus is not the Father's equal, but beloved Son. Now I go a little further. Jesus was given great power. But as it says he will turn everything over...
Well it's a bit of a loaded question since it's hard to extrapolate from that single verse that Jesus is God. However, taken in the context of the rest of the book of John and with evidence from other books of the Bible; this verse does indicate the divine nature of Christ.
To be clear the...
Working together sounds like a good idea to me.
Coming with a blank slate we both know is impossible at this stage, but it is possible to look at what the Bible says without bringing in our ideas... I'm all for that.
In that case, I think to really do both of those, it's important to understand...
John 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2The same was in the beginning with God. 3All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. 4In him was life; and the life was the light of men. 5And the light shineth in...
I disagree with the notion that the Trinity is a mystory.
Trinity is an interpretation of the Godhead. That the three Persons, God the Father, the Son of God and the Holy Spirit (John 4:24) are the one and the same God, Deuteronomy 6:4.
Now the term translated "Godhead" in the KJV is translated...
I find Isaiah 53:10 corresponds with : Leviticus 16:11; Hebrews 7:26-27; 2 Corinthians 5:21; Hebrews 4:15; Isaiah 9:7; 1 Timothy 6:16; Colossians1:19-20
To me Jesus did see his ' seed ' and his days were prolonged because his God 'resurrected' the dead Jesus. Did Not leave Jesus dead.
His...
The sacrifice of Jesus satisfied perfect divine justice for us by providing the righteous-and-just basis for the pardoning of our sins - Romans 3:23-26; 5:12
Jesus' sacrifice made it favorable for us to seek and receive right relations with our Heavenly Father - Ephesians 1:7; Hebrews 2:17; 1...
That verse means the word was work Jesus, not God the Father or Holy Spirit.
Jesus, with the term thou, was referred to as a true God in that context.
Jesus and the Bible both being called the word of God doesn't mean that Jesus being called the word of God was a self contradiction. How can...
I understand that 'in him [Jesus] dwelleth all the fulness of Godhead bodily'. This tells us clearly that there's a distinction to be made between the vessel [Jesus the man] and the Godhead [Father, Word and Holy Spirit].
To confirm this distinction, look at Acts 10:38:
'How God [Gk. Theos]...
Yes the humanity of Jesus did pre-exist because God never changes (Malachi 3:6) and it also says Jesus never changes. (Hebrews 13:8) So since it was always in God's purpose to come in human form; (Romans 8:29) therefore it was already done since the beginning of the world. God finished all His...
