That I do in your eyes. One is a spirit like the Father, the other is a Man like us. Both are creations, Get out of the box your in and study with an open mind, do not assume anything.
Christ means anointed, what was Jesus anointed with?
Heb 10:5 Wherefore when he cometh into the world, he saith, Sacrifice and offering thou wouldest not, but a body hast thou prepared me:
Joh 17:5 KJV And now, O Father, glorify thou me with thine own self with the glory which I had with thee before the world was.
True JR, we finely found something to agree on.
But scripture itself has been changed by the early translators.
They had different thoughts and added them to the originals.
I believe in Jesus. That's enough for Him and it's enough for me. That is how Christianity came to be called such. Christians were called just that: little Christs. We are living epistles. Your phony church was invented centuries later and has strayed from Truth from day one (IMHO). There's no reason in this day and age for men to bow to statues. None. There's no reason to wear the clown suits that cardinals or popes appear in. There's more than enough reasons to stop such archaic practices which merely chase sinners away from Christ. If you don't understand that then you're not just silly, you're also ignorant. God doesn't bless people with ignorance, He blesses with wisdom. Seek Him. He'll give it to you. All you'll ever get from men is their approval; which, in that case: is all the reward you'll EVER receive. He isn't looking for a church building, He's looking for a victorious bride, clothed in His Righteousness, having overcome all the enemies on this third rock. If you're not stomping on the enemy's head because you're too busy attempting to put your foot on the neck of those who actually believe His Word, you're less than a pagan, you're demonically inspired. If you have the ability to ask God to show you Truth, He will. Unless you do so, you will be lost, forever. Professing faith in Christ doesn't get you into Heaven, believing in Him does. You demonstrate that you don't believe in Him by ignoring Truth and attempting to cloud the issue with man-made nonsense that doesn't come from God's Holy Word. Your false religion has done a GREAT job of brainwashing you. Sorry, but that's the truth, the way I see it.You're, a pagan. You're a practitioner of a novel paganism invented sometime in the last few hundred years, basing itself on the Lord Jesus's Catholic Church, in order to avoid His pastorate the episcopacy that He and His Apostles including St. Paul instituted, established, and administrated. You're not "going to hell" if you believe in Him, but you are in the wrong "church". Your view is distorted, and you're arrogant about it.
No idea what you're talking about.
No, Keypurr, it hasn't, not in the way you are trying to assert.
No, Keypurr, they didn't.
For in Him dwells all the fullness of the Godhead bodily; and you are complete in Him, who is the head of all principality and power.
Note: there is NOTHING left out if The Fullness of The Godhead dwells in Him. We are anointed with His Presence, but Jesus, being God, in The Flesh, carried the fullness: everything that God is was always, is and always will be in Him.
Disagree all you wish JR, but your wrong.
So you do not accept the scripture in post #82?
Christ was sent by his God, not on his own accord.
Col 1:15+ tells you IT
was given the power of his creator.
The first of all CREATION.
IT/HE is the FORM of God
in Phil 2.
A form of God is not God,
it is a creation.
There is only one God,
see John 17:3.
I will let you return to your class about milk.
Disagree all you wish JR, but your wrong.
I'm just making it clear so that all you Noncatholic Christians know your status. You are all pagans, one of a multitude of new paganisms invented since the 1500s, where your God is our God, He is God, you've got the right God, and that does set you apart from all the other paganisms who worship some other deity besides God. You're Christian pagans, Christian idolaters. You are our brethren, but we are separated.I believe in Jesus. That's enough for Him and it's enough for me.

Fact is that the Lord Jesus built a Church, one Church, and she is spoken of many times in the New Testament (not the "church in the wilderness" that trolls like to play like it's a card up their sleeve), and both secular and Church history records what has happened to this one Church in the intervening centuries between now and the Resurrection of Christ.
The Apostles were themselves and they created bishops, to oversee the Church. 1st and 2nd Timothy and Titus are NT books that were actually addressed to first generation bishops by the Apostle St. Paul, so we both read about bishops in books like Acts and in Peter's epistles where he addresses them, calling them there "elders", and we get to read what was written to just them, and not to the Church in general like other epistles. We know from Scripture that the consecration of a bishop was done by current bishops, through the imposition of their hands, and that the Apostles made bishops in this way. Timothy and Titus were made bishops by the imposition of Paul's hands. This process of bishops creating new bishops has gone on continually from the Apostolic era onward, and is still done today, by bishops who were created in the same tradition, by the same means, as those in the first century and in every century since then.
This pastorate of bishop, this office (cf. 1st Timothy 3:1), was instituted by the Apostles, and it exists to this day, in both Catholicism and in Orthodoxy, both traditions tracing their root to the Apostolic era. If you aren't under a bishop that was created in this same, biblical tradition, then you are a pagan, aka a Protestant in particular, you protest the office of a bishop that the Apostles instituted to oversee the one Church that the Lord Jesus built.
Upon Peter.
Just so you know where you stand. Your paganism may not allow it, but you are a sheep, and you have a Shepherd, and He has a fold for you, and you are outside the fold that He built for you.
All of you. Just so you know.
You're welcome.Excellent job of supporting false doctrine based on your pagan philosophy.
