John 1:1- the CONTEXT and Christ!

[QuestionIt]

Joh 14:9 Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip? he that hath seen me hath seen the Father; and how sayest thou then, Shew us the Father?

So I take this to mean you believe Jesus is his OWN father?

 

[Curtis]

There is an even BIGGER difference to "God-the-Son'!

There is no difference between the "Son of God" to "God the Son."
Nobody can be "a son of God" without first having "the Son of God" living in them.

 

[Curtis]

So I take this to mean you believe Jesus is his OWN father?

The Father lives inside his Son, and the Son lives inside his Father. What did the scripture say?

Joh 14:9 Jesus said to him, “Have I been with you so long, and you still do not know me, Philip? Whoever has seen me has seen the Father. How can you say, ‘Show us the Father’?

 

[Samson2020]

There is a BIG difference between being "The Son of God" to be being "a son of God."

I would agree. But yet we are told that we will be like Him when we see Him. We are told that nothing shall be impossible to us. We are told that at some point He will no longer
pray the Father for us for we shall pray the Father directly. We are told that we will be alive unto God forever. We are told that we shall be priests and kings unto God. We are also
told that He is not ashamed to call us brothers. How much difference should there be in brothers?

Funny thing is there is no respect of persons with God but He does have His favorites. Makes one wonder just how little the difference may be.

PS original Greek texts were written only in upper case, S included. The revisionists have changed the original from all uppers to in some cases lower.

Yet decades later John writes that no man hath ever seen God. Even Jesus states that fact as well. He was referring to the miracles that were done as evidence that the Father
was with Him.

John 1:18 Jesus' words
1 John 4:12 Johns words years later.

Now if looking at Jesus you would be saying you are looking actually at God that just doesn't fit the scriptures.

We shall inherit the EARTH, only a small number will be Kings.

 

[QuestionIt]

Curtis you never answered the questions- WHY?

 

[QuestionIt]

John 7:16- My teaching is not mine, but his who sent me;
17- if any man’s will is to do his will, he shall know whether the teaching is from God or whether I am speaking on my own authority.
18- He who speaks on his own authority seeks his own glory; but he who seeks the glory of Him who sent him is true, and in Him there is no falsehood.

Do you Trinitarians stick by church dogmuck that goes AGAINST Christ's words- and say that God came 'Themselves'?

 

[QuestionIt]

John 8:18- I bear witness to myself, and the Father who sent me bears witness to me.

And Trinitarians think Jesus is his own father!

Matthew 24:35 Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away.

 

[QuestionIt]

Matthew 24:35 Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away.

Only meant as an expression; in other words, his words will not pass away.
Want me to look up the scriptures that say the Earth will last forever?

 

[QuestionIt]

John 8:23- He said to them, “You are from below, I am from above; you are of this world, I am not of this world.
24- I told you that you would die in your sins, for you will die in your sins unless you believe that I am he.”
25- They said to him, “Who are you?” Jesus said to them, “Even what I have told you from the beginning.
26- I have much to say about you and much to judge; but He who sent me is true, and I declare to the world what I have heard from Him.”
27- They did not understand that he spoke to them of the Father.
28- So Jesus said, “When you have lifted up the son of man, then you will know that I am he, and that I do nothing on my own authority but speak thus as the Father taught me.
29- And He who sent me is with me; He has not left me alone, for I always do what is pleasing to him.”

Sure, go for it. But I believe it would be a contradiction of Matt 24:35 which indeed are the words of Jesus.

 

[Samson2020]

As the words He spoke were Spirit and life. "The meek shall inherit the earth" is spiritual, thus the meek in spirit will inherit the earth they exist in, their mortal flesh. They, the meek,
will not suffer the war between the flesh and the spirit like those who are not meek. Meek=submissive, in this case to the new born spirit within.

No, it's where you don't want to know what the scriptures say when it violates what you've been taught.

2 Pet 3:11- Since all these things are thus to be dissolved, what sort of persons ought you to be in lives of holiness and godliness, 12- waiting for and hastening the coming of the day of God, because of which the heavens will be kindled and dissolved, and the elements will melt with fire! 13- But according to his promise we wait for new heavens and a new earth in which righteousness dwells.

 

[QuestionIt]

John 8:38- I speak of what I have seen with my Father, and you do what you have heard FROM YOUR father.”

I wonder which father he referred to THEN!

 

[QuestionIt]

John 8:57- The Jews then said to him, “You are not yet fifty years old, and have you seen Abraham?”
58- Jesus said to them, “Truly, truly, I say to you, before Abraham was, I am. (A mistranslation. It should read "existed")

How could that be if God ALWAYS was, is and will be. He has no beginning or end.

I am sorry for the need to say this but that is a thoughtless question. YWH created everything we see, touch, feel, and reach for to our benefit. As unfathomably huge as our Time/Space Continuum appears to us, our Elohim is larger and there is no escape from Him anywhere.

Just how large is YHWH? Flip me over and call me Done... I do not know and I might never know or care. He created everything there is and that makes Him so powerful that I, a died in the wool Pro-military nut, do bow down to humble myself before Him in worship and to offer my service to Him without limit.

There are a number of things that deny all answers. YHWH is the force, God if one chooses, that is constant throughout all time recorded or otherwise. The argument by the idiots claiming The Big Bang holds the answer are more thoughtless that the plastic bottle Soda Waters are sold in.

Empirical Science demands this is untrue, a lie! Nothing in the Scientific Method hints at this being true. No, it is not true and yet something, unknown to our natural senses, started this mess, and the answer is Our Elohim, Him that speaks to the heart of men when they seek to find Him.

I have heard so many answer this thought with so many thoughtless answers that at my age, it's tiring. But the truth is that when I humbled myself, the first time, He let me know He was there with me. It really is that simple.

That is an interesting corkscrew but it is a lie.
