    There is no evidence for God, so why do you believe?

    That’s not it: ““Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only the one who does the will of my Father in heaven. On that day many will say to me, ‘Lord, Lord, didn’t we prophesy in your name, drive out demons in your name, and do many miracles in your...

    There is no evidence for God, so why do you believe?

    There are no Christians in the Bible? Criteria for being a follower is belief, and cast out devils These signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils. Mark 16:17 Also - baptize Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of...

    Why Would Christians Worship a God Who Clearly Wouldn't Lift A Finger For Them?

    You're not reading the verses. Here they are again. Please explain to me how there is any equivocation in Jesus' and Paul's words: I can guarantee this truth: If you ask the Father for anything in my name, he will give it to you. Now read with me, Musing: I can guarantee this truth In other...

    Why Would Christians Worship a God Who Clearly Wouldn't Lift A Finger For Them?

    That’s how it was remembered but obviously not true. Jesus would have never said ask for anything you want and you will get it. That defies common sense.

    Why Would Christians Worship a God Who Clearly Wouldn't Lift A Finger For Them?

    That's not the way my Bible reads, cOLTER: I can guarantee this truth: If you ask the Father for anything in my name, he will give it to you. And Matthew 21:22 And all things you ask in prayer, believing, you will receive.” John 16:24 Until now you have asked for nothing in My name; ask...

    The Artist Magistra Q that hopefully can shed some light

    LOL... I need to ask Him! I think we get hung up on a law-type of mentality too many times. I remember someone who said, "The God that made that sun" and was delivered from his situation (have tried to find it on the internet with no success yet). People who don't know what to call Him do the...

    A dialogue about Prophecy & doctrines between the WTS/JW & Seventh-day Adventist

    1 John 5:7-8 (continued) The doctrine of Godhead, as taught in Matthew 28:19 KJB, is revealed all throughout the King James Bible, a small sampling: Matthew 28:19 KJB - Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy...

    Anti-immigration People are Sodomites.

    Bob, you can take whatever texts you’d like and interpret them however you’d like, make whichever equivalences you want with them, use them to try and control/guilt trip others but the fact won’t change that Jesus and God would be in a much more powerful position to act than inferior humans...

    Anti-immigration People are Sodomites.

    Yeah. Because what Jesus loves the most is lukewarmness and mediocrity. Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord and not for men, knowing that from the Lord you will receive the inheritance as your reward. You are serving the Lord Christ. Colossians 3:23-24 And whatever you do, in word...

    Genesis 1:26

    What I wrote. ^ My Answer to that. I didn't say that there weren't different aspects. You somehow read that into the comments, even though it isn't there. Jesus being the 'pater', Shepherd, for example, doesn't mean that Jesus is the same aspsct as JeHoVaH, it means that Jesus is 'our...

    Genesis 1:26

    Of course there is only one God. But why can't there be more than one "person" in that God? One football team has eleven players. One family can have from two to many members. And don't you see how some of the Bible verses you listed above agree with this? Col 3:17 says give thanks to God and...

    Genesis 1:26

    Colossians 3:17 Matthew 3:3 Matthew 2:4 Matthew 16:16 Matthew 16:20 Matthew 23:8 1 Corinthians 8:6 I believe that God is 1, as the Bible says, and that is the real belief, as far as I'm concerned. Jesus is called Christ Lord God 'Our God'.

    Works vs Doctrine

    This is works: Romans 2:6-10 2 Corinthians 5:10 John 14:15 what would happen if you didn't keep his commandments? Would you get a free ride to heaven?) Colossians 3:17 if you arent doing for Christ and others by what reason should you be saved? What in you does god see to where your salvation...

    Jesus is not God Almighty Himself

    Jesus is addressed as God in some locations in the New Testament. We all agree to this. The question is: in what sense is he called God? The challenge for Trinitarians is to establish that the term should be interpreted literally rather than using the existing precedent in scripture as when...

    Jesus is not God Almighty Himself

    * Then Jesus is being called God. Revelation 1:6 Colossians 3:17 Colossians 3:23 Colossians 3:24 * Note the contradiction, of how you are using the name, God, saying that it is vague, and, and also arguing that it isn't vague. The general problem with your argument, besides the contradictory...

    Jesus is not God Almighty Himself

    Incorrect - I fully accept that Jesus is addressed as God - just as angels, Moses, and the Jewish People have been called God and gods. In all these cases it is clear from the context that it is not literally God Almighty. This position disarms many/most Trinitarian arguments - since they like...

    Jesus is not God Almighty Himself

    ☆Actually, in the New Testament, Jesus is called God. In other words, if you are trying to present an argument that Jesus isn't called God, it's wrong. This leaves, what is your argument. You haven't presented an argument, that would make Jesus, not God. I mean, it's a really bad argument. That...

    God talking

    *I agree religion has always been a deed/belief thing, but Jesus brings us something different than what came before. *I agree that doctrine shouldn't build on isolated verses, and that parts should work together. *I agree that I have a saving relationship with Christ, not a book. *I agree...
