    Did Jesus Christ Actually Exist?

    Completely wrong. The Gospels don't even pretend to use sources. They literally say: " Gospels do not even explicitly claim Matthew, Mark, Luke, or John as their authors. Instead, the Gospels have an abnormal title convention, where they instead use the Greek preposition κατα, meaning...

    Why So Much Trinity Bashing?

    Within the confines of what was then the Roman Empire, long before and during the dawn of Christianity, there were many dying-and-rising gods. And yes, they were gods—some even half-god, half-human, being of divine or magical parentage, just like Jesus (John 1:1-18; Matthew 1:18-25; Luke...

    Jesus is not God

    What are you talking about… your responses are getting even more diabolical (and what is the base meaning of DIABOLICAL!!) each time. I asked you what you meant by ‘the nature of God’ (or similar relating to ‘Nature of God’). But, as usual, you cannot answer because you do not know!! What you...

    Jesus is not God

    You're twisting Scuba Pete's Bible quote. The Bible doesn't say "in the nature of God". It says "Who, being in very nature God, did not consider equality with God something to be used to his own advantage" Philippians 2:6 Your "simple common sense" is getting in the way of true understanding...

    What is God's highest priority?

    I do not deny that Jesus came in the flesh. I believe that. I do not believe that the physical body of Jesus rose from the dead. If Jesus rose, He rose in a spiritual body. John 20:27 New International Version Then he said to Thomas, “Put your finger here; see my hands. Reach out your hand...

    What is God's highest priority?

    I'm not sure how to answer this exactly, but I will always refer to scripture in doing so. The scriptures make it clear, that Jesus took on human form Philippians 2:6-11. I have already provided these scriptures. and in 2 John 1:7 John warns us to be careful of those who don't accept that...

    “The Son is equal to his Father”

    Hello Kenny! Remember who was saying this. It was the Jews. What they thought, didn’t & doesn’t make it so. They also said He had a demon. The Jews called God their Father, too. Does that make them equal to God, also? What is God’s form (Gr., mor*phe), Kenny? He is a spirit. So was Jesus...

    “The Son is equal to his Father”

    No, cousin. Trying to understand God with a finite mind, might make it a little difficult. The His Word didn’t imply… it stated: John 5:18 Therefore the Jews sought the more to kill him, because he not only had broken the sabbath, but said also that God was his Father, making himself equal...

    “The Son is equal to his Father”

    Paul's Jesus (like John's but not like the synoptic Jesuses) pre-existed in heaven with God. Since Paul (and the author of John) make it clear that Jesus denies he's God and makes no claim of that kind, I'd say this means, existed in heaven with God. Did not challenge God's authority. But put...

    Do you love God?

    Yes, that is what I believe. The Word became flesh and walked among us. Again, that is what I believe. I can certainly understand that.... I barely have time to breathe anymore!

    Do you love God?

    Very interesting… thanks for sharing. I’m not sure we differ here — perhaps it isn’t what we say but how we are saying. We follow the understanding of Paul and John in this sense: PHILLIPS Let Christ himself be your example as to what your attitude should be. For he, who had always been God...

    For trinity believers: Does your world come unravelled if Jesus is not God,but ONLY Gods Son?

    If this forum doesn't stop hanging up I'll be gone too. I don't have all of eternity to wait for every post I post! I think you need to look at John 16 in context in order to understand what it means. John 16 12 I have yet many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now. 13 Howbeit...

    “The Son is equal to his Father”

    Philippians 2:6 equates Jesus with God. In my religious/Christian training worshiping Jesus was equal to worshiping God as they were one in the same. It was all about Jesus since in the worship of Jesus nothing about God was excluded. Of course, how many thousands of versions of Christian belief...

    By the way -- if you claim to be a Christian...

    Taking the 'bible' here to mean the NT, it's a set of writings from, it's thought, the second half of the first century CE, about a person whom none of the authors had ever seen, let alone met. It appears that a cult within Judaism had formed around this person, who, judging from the early...

    WHO IS GOD'S TRUE ISRAEL IN THE NEW COVENANT?

    Again, you misunderstand the dual nature of Christ as prophesied (Isaiah 52:13-15) and which is highlighted again by the apostle Paul in Phillipians 2:6-8. 6Who, existing in the form of God, did not consider equality with God something to be grasped,a 7but emptied Himself, taking the form of a...

    The Lake of Fire is Reincarnation

    Yokefellow, i was going to reply to all of your original post on this thread, however, after reading through some of the posts above, its pointless. Whether or not you are willing to accept my criticism or not, your entire theology in this thread is deeply deficient in the presumptions that it...

    Did you know Jesus is considered as a different god according to scripture?

    It’s funny and strange how you profess a unity of God and Son of God as a TRINITY (an invented word in regards to a ONE GOD!) yet EXCLUDE the claimed THIRD ENTITY… a Holy Spirit!! You use, ‘Baptise [people of God?] in the name of … the unity … the trinity’ since you claim all three NAMES are...

    If there is a life after death.....

    I am not arguing for or against you. I am just stating what I believe, which is the same as what you believe although there are some differences. Christians believe that Jesus was God incarnated in the flesh and I believe that Jesus was God manifested in the flesh. The difference is that...

    If there is a life after death.....

    I am not really sure if you were arguing for me or against. You stated correctly that the Word is speaking of Jesus and we Christians all agree. You said he is God manifested in the flesh and this again is correct but then you say he is simply the appearance of God as if he was not real or...

    Did you know Jesus is considered as a different god according to scripture?

    In the above context, as seen before, “The Name” is in the neuter, so Jesus said, it is within the “Name”: “in (within) the name of my Father” (John 10:25). It fulfills the prophecy of Zechariah 14:9: “The LORD will be King over all the earth; in that day the LORD will be one, and His name...
