Greetings again Lonster, I do not endorse this view. My understanding is that Jesus did not exist before he was conceived and born. Normally when two parents have a child, we do not speak of the child being created. With Jesus he was conceived by the Holy Spirit and thus the One God, God the...

Greetings Lonster, I was interested in this thread, not because I support JWs and their teaching, but I do have some beliefs that are closer to the JWs than the Catholic Church teachings. I was also interested in what Trump Gurl would present. Could you please tell me what translation you are...

Greetings again Lonster, We could discuss many Scriptures, but I most probably have a different understanding of what you are suggesting and Colossians 1:15-20. I do not consider that these alter my perspective on the promise to David. I consider that I have a reasonable overall perspective and...

Greetings again Lonster, 2 Samuel 7:14 (KJV): I will be his father, and he shall be my son. It was not present position as the Trinitarian needs to claim. I read this passage and context as saying that David was in the future to have a son or descendant who would sit upon the Throne of...

Greetings again Lonster, The following from the promises to David indicate that it was to be a future event: 2 Samuel 7:14 (KJV): I will be his father, and he shall be my son. Yes, I am not very good at English and explanation. I am a technical person and enjoyed Maths and Physics. I am not...

Greetings again JudgeRightly, Yes, there is, Jesus is the Son of God. For a start he had so absorbed God’s words that they were completely his own thoughts and thus when he spoke they were both his words and God the Father’s thoughts and words. One example of this flow is given in the...

Greetings again Trump Gurl, I hope to answer JudgeRightly soon and he has given a thorough answer on this aspect. I am conscious of this part of the history of the Catholic Church. Perhaps the definitions found in wiki and Britannica are helpful. Quoting only two paragraphs from each: Wiki...

Greetings again Trump Gurl and JudgeRightly, I am very conscious of the history of the RCC and the gradual development of many of her doctrines. There has always or often been a minority who have believed differently to the RCC and at some times these have been severely persecuted by the RCC...

Greetings again JudgeRightly, Jesus spoke God the Father’s words, and these were given to him by God. Kind regards Trevor

Greetings again Trump Gur I do not agree with Arius, as I believe that Jesus was a man, and did not pre-exist Matthew 1:20-21, Luke 1:34-35, John 1:14. I also reject the JW perspectives. Kind regards Trevor

Greetings JudgeRightly, I am not sure if you want the members of this forum to simply read the article that you refer to, or you consider the article completely conclusive. Take for example the first major introductory statement: “Thus Saith the Lord: If we count how many times the Old...

Greetings again Trump Gurl and Lonster, No, I believe that Jesus is the Son of God, not God the Son. Yes, Yahweh, God the Father is one being. All I can say about this assessment is that those that formulated this must have had a vivid imagination. I cannot find your definition in the Bible...

Greetings Trump Girl, I suggest that those that believe that there is one God, Yahweh, God the Father and that our Lord Jesus Christ is the Son of God are truly Christians, but we may need to wait for Jesus to reveal this fully when he returns to judge who are the faithful. In the meantime it...

Greetings Bradley D, Some of the Psalms seem to talk to us at different times. My oldest sister who is 80 is coming home today from hospital after 8 weeks. Her condition came upon her suddenly and some of her new condition persists. As I am already in the 70-80 bracket, I can speak from...

A Few Thoughts on Psalm 1 This is an impressive Psalm and is an introduction to the Book of Psalms. Two sets of people and two ways are revealed, summed up in the last verse, the way of the ungodly and the way of the righteous. The righteous class are introduced in the first phrase, but it is...

The Land was Promised to Abraham, not Heaven The importance and connection of the Promises to Abraham to the One Gospel and the bearing of this upon the believer today is firstly stated in the following: Galatians 3:6–7 (KJV): 6 Even as Abraham believed God, and it was accounted to him for...

Greetings xfr, The following is in my Bible: Genesis 3:19 (KJV): In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, till thou return unto the ground; for out of it wast thou taken: for dust thou art, and unto dust shalt thou return. Daniel 12:2 (KJV): 2 And many of them that sleep in the dust of...

Greetings again Bradley D, I agree, but you distinctly said in your previous Post: “The Spirit and Soul is the breath of life”. The second part of your Post stated “When we how can the breath of life remain in us when the body is dead.” And you seemed to have dropped a word or two, or made a...

Greetings again Bradley D, The breath of life is the air which we breathe, and if we are submersed a long time in water, then we drown and we no longer have the breath of life in our lungs. Both man and beast were drowned in the time of Noah, and all of these had the breath of life: Genesis...

Greetings again Bradley D, I am not sure what the relevance of these two individuals is to the concept of immortals souls. and/or heaven going at death or in any way an answer to the Bible teaching from Genesis 2:7, 3:19 and Daniel 12:2.concerning the soul and death. I am not sure how you...
