    I and the father are one.

    Soapy, are you aware that @YoursTrue is not a trinitarian? She is one of Jehovah’s Witnesses, like I am. Jesus worshipped his Father. As followers of Jesus, ie., Christian, so do we. At John 17:6, Jesus prayed, “....Father, glorify me with the glory I had alongside You before the world was.”...

    I and the father are one.

    Read Ephesians 4:9-10. ‘He descended … then ascended’ Check this: At no time did Jesus or scriptures say he was ‘going back’ to where he was. He nor scriptures ever says that he is ‘going Back to the Father [who sent him]’. Jesus only says: ‘I was sent by the Father’ ‘I came from the...

    Did Christianity Start with Jesus?

    The Saoshyant born of a virgin idea does not appear at all in Zoroastrianism until Book 10 of the Denkard. See verses 15-18. Book 7 of the Denkard refers to historical events in the history of the Persian people including the 7th century invasion of Persia by the Muslims See item 7 in the list...

    Can you go to heaven after you die a nonbeliever?

    You and I are also manifestations of God, everything is a manifestation of God, it could not be otherwise when God is all there is, because if there's something outside God, then God and this "something" are contained in something greater than God. The difference between me, you and Jesus, the...

    Can you go to heaven after you die a nonbeliever?

    The idea that the Christ went to a place that doesn't exist is unfounded, except by some bible translators, who believed in the concept of a hell…This is exemplified by the verses in Ephesians 4:9-10 being in parenthesis, in several bible translations. Which, should only be a clarification of...

    If the only way to the father is through Jesus, then what about the Prophets in the OT?

    Well, he mentions those living "earthly lives," those who would have heard the gospel while they were in the flesh, and he follows with "the gospel was preached also to those who are dead." To me, the contrast alone indicates that he means the physically dead here, not just the spiritually dead...

    Do you understand the New Testament

    I agree. Those verses in Matthew are an enigma. These--- Matt. 27:52 and the graves were opened* Matt. 27: 53 and went* have made it on a list of spurious passages of the NT. They dont appear in the oldest complete manuscripts.

    Do you understand the New Testament

    AK4 you do have a powerful argument, but my spirit cannot accept that God is the evil, the good and the indifferent all wrapped up into a holy loving God; except in the special circumstance of making his sons (or first fruits perfect.) later I will show you who I believe the first fruits are...

    (Baptism) What it is and what it does.

    Thanks for your insight and clarity regarding this issue. :)

    (Baptism) What it is and what it does.

    Blueman, I firstly must say that I agree with you that baptism is not necessary for salvation and I believe that we get baptised to show outwardly of what has occurred in our life and that we believe in the death and resurrection of Christ. The scriptures that seem to indicate that baptism...
