The bible does not speak, it has no voice, you all insist it is Gods word, if that where the case we would only have one, it would be true and we would all be walking in it, and as you can see, there are multiple versions of the bible, yet we only have one God so either He has a split personalty or we have many Gods, which is it...

Teh words that I speak,

My sheep hear my voice

So many trying to prove to God they can read a book and work Him out, God who created teh universe and saw all that is to come, diminshed to ink on a page, as if we mankind can contain God in a book, what arrogance.

mjrhealth, just answer me this, John 14:21 "He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him.

when did the Lord Jesus manifest himself to his disciples. just answer this simple question.
Well I have seeing Him so I have no problem with that. Oh yes teh post about Thomas remember...

Joh 21:13 Jesus then cometh, and taketh bread, and giveth them, and fish likewise.
Joh 21:14 This is now the third time that Jesus shewed himself to his disciples, after that he was risen from the dead.

see mjrhealth, they could not see him, (I wonder why), he MANIFESTED himself. so when did that happen?. after his resurrection, he "appeared in another form". but he said, that he would "Manifest" himself, so when and how did he manifest himself to his disciples.

Joh 20:26 And after eight days again his disciples were within, and Thomas with them: then came Jesus, the doors being shut, and stood in the midst, and said, Peace be unto you.
Joh 20:27 Then saith he to Thomas, Reach hither thy finger, and behold my hands; and reach hither thy hand, and thrust it into my side: and be not faithless, but believing.

Well they saw Him where did you get this not seeing Him bit from???

Your running out of straws...

manifest; 3rd person present
is I third person? no, so that failed.

Just liek it says, showed Himself to them.
now read the scripture clearly, John 14:21 "He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him. Judas saith unto him, not Iscariot, Lord, how is it that thou wilt manifest thyself unto us, and not unto the world? Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him. mjrhealth, he is abiding in them, and if in them how is he "MANIFESTING" in them while he is in another form appearing to them. so, is he, while in flesh and bone abiding in them NO, see your mistake. flesh and bone cannot abode in another's flesh and bone, that's crazy. so your assessment is incorrect. now try again.... (smile). only the Spirit can abide in someone. knowing that only a Spirit can abode in some one, he said, I and my father. now once again, Romans 8:9 "But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his". and yes, Christ is Spirit, with flesh and bone. Luke 24:39 "Behold my hands and my feet, that it is I myself: handle me, and see; for a spirit hath not flesh and bones, as ye see me have".

now that we have eliminate your answer, so the question still stand. "how did the Lord Jesus "MANIFEST" himself to his disciple"... (smile).

LOL, LOL, John 14:17 "Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you".

John 14:19 "Yet a little while, and the world seeth me no more; but ye see me: because I live, ye shall live also.John 14:20 "At that day ye shall know that I am in my Father, and ye in me, and I in you". well do you now understand?. see you're caught in an error. and can't get out of it.

Oh thats still 3 seperate, Jesus God and the Holy Spirit, not one and teh same but all in agreement. You carry on as If I dont Know, as I have said, I a have seeing Jesus, now how Could I have He had not "manifested" Himself to me??? or all those who have seeing Him???

John 14:19 "Yet a little while, and the world seeth me no more; but ye see me: because I live, ye shall live also.John 14:20 "At that day ye shall know that I am in my Father, and ye in me, and I in you". well do you now understand?. see you're caught in an error. and can't get out of it
Well JEsus is in God but not as you read it, just as we are in Him, thats just means we are all as one, how can we be in Him if He is in us????

LOL, ERROR, if the Lord Jesus is a separate person, and is Spirit, then you have three Spirit, and that's anti bible. again, Romans 8:9 "But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his". if this is three separate Spirit, then you have three Gods, and that polytheism.

see mjrhealth there is no way of getting around it, in, dwelling or abiding is by the Spirit. and you have 3 Separate Spirits and that's 3 GODS. sorry that want work, so try again.

mjrhealth, no need to reply.
YEs im doing what the bible says we should not do...
Actually forgot what teh point of this whole discussion was about, but the enemy loves that arguing over teh bible and what is says. How many points did you score today. Proud??

Eph_2:18 For through him we both have access by one Spirit unto the Father.

So through the Holy Spirit we have access to God, so they are not one and teh same ??? Which is what you are arguing about...
