Is there a sense in which you are your father? Absurdity upon absurdity is being presented by some.
carnal thinking, oh the carnal mind, listen, Romans 8:5 "For they that are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit the things of the Spirit."Is there a sense in which you are your father? Absurdity upon absurdity is being presented by some.
Theoretically I could go back in time and impregnate my own mother 9 mos before I was born.Is there a sense in which you are your father? Absurdity upon absurdity is being presented by some.
so we can take this as you cannot understand the TRUTH?...... :)I don't need to read your posts since you are an adversary to the truth. Another saboteur.
Never. He is called "the everlasting [Father]" in Isa 9:6, but that needs to be properly interpret.Where is the bible is Jesus called God the Father?
well, well, well, my, my, my, 1 Peter 1:10 "Of which salvation the prophets have enquired and searched diligently, who prophesied of the grace that should come unto you:"Never. He is called "the everlasting [Father]" in Isa 9:6, but that needs to be properly interpret.
כִּי־יֶ֣לֶד יֻלַּד־לָ֗נוּ בֵּ֚ן נִתַּן־לָ֔נוּ וַתְּהִ֥י הַמִּשְׂרָ֖ה עַל־שִׁכְמֹ֑ו וַיִּקְרָ֨א שְׁמֹ֜ו פֶּ֠לֶא יֹועֵץ֙ אֵ֣ל גִּבֹּ֔ור אֲבִיעַ֖ד שַׂר־שָׁלֹֽום
That Hebrew word abiyad or aviyad means perpetuity or everlasting. Christ is from everlasting to everlasting. Then in what sense is He a Father?
JOHN GILL'S COMMENTARY MAKE IT VERY CLEAR
'The everlasting Father;
CHRIST IS NOT GOD THE FATHER
which does not design any relation of Christ in the Godhead; and there is but one Father in the Godhead, and that is the first Person; indeed Christ and the Father are one, and the Father is in him, and he is in the Father, and he that has seen the one has seen the other, and yet they are distinct, Christ is not the Father; the Son and Spirit may be considered with the first Person as Father, in creation and regeneration, they being jointly concerned therein, but not in the Trinity: it is easy to make it appear Christ is not the Father, but is distinct from him, since he is said to be with the Father from eternity, to be the Son of the Father in truth and love, his own Son, his only begotten and beloved Son; Christ frequently calls the first Person his Father, prayed to him as such, and is our advocate with him, as well as the way unto him; he is said to be sent by the Father, to come from him, and to go to him; and many things are said of Christ that cannot be said of the Father, as his being made flesh, suffering and dying in the room of his people; and the Father is said to do many things unto him, as to anoint him, to seal him, to show him all he did, to commit all judgment to him, and give him to have life in himself as he had:...
CHRIST IS FATHER TO HIS REDEEMED BRETHREN (AS SHEPHERD OF HIS SHEEP)
...but Christ is a Father with respect to chosen men, who were given him as his children and offspring in covenant; who are adopted into that family that is named of him, and who are regenerated by his Spirit and grace: and to these he is an "everlasting Father";'
I believe this verse has a double application (to both Isaiah and Christ): Behold, I and the children whom the LORD hath given me are for signs and for wonders in Israel from the LORD of hosts, which dwelleth in mount Zion. (Isa 8:18)
...but Christ is a Father with respect to chosen men,
Isa 44:6
Thus says the Lord, the King of Israel
And his Redeemer, the Lord of hosts:
'I am the first and I am the last,
And there is no God besides Me.
Isa 48:12
"Listen to Me, O Jacob, even Israel whom I called;
I am He, I am the first, I am also the last.
John 8:24
I told you that you would die in your sins. Yes, if you don't believe that I AM(YHWH), you will die in your sins."
John 8:58
Jesus said to them, "Truly, truly, I say to you, before Abraham was born, I Am.(YHWH)"
John 1:1
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
John 20:28
Thomas answered and said to Him, "My Lord and my God!"
Rom 9:5
Theirs are the patriarchs, and from them is traced the human ancestry of Christ who is God over all forever praised! Amen.
Titus 2:13
looking for the blessed hope and the appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior Christ Jesus
1 Tim 3:16
And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory.
Heb 1:8
But of the Son He says,
"YOUR THRONE O GOD IS FOREVER AND EVER
Heb 1:10
He also says,
"In the beginning, O Lord, you laid the foundations of the earth,
and the heavens are the work of your hands.
2 Peter 1:1
Simon Peter a servant and apostle of Jesus Christ
To those who through the righteousness of our God and Savior Jesus Christ have received a faith as precious as ours
2 Peter 1:11
for in this way the entrance into the eternal kingdom of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ will be abundantly supplied to you.
1 John 5:20
We know also that the Son of God has come and has given us understanding, so that we may know him who is true. And we are in him who is true even in His Son Jesus Christ. He is the true God and eternal life.
These passages in Revelation make it clear that Jesus is God. Remember it is Jesus in the NT who is Coming back to earth that every eye will see. It was Jesus who was pierced on the cross for our sins. John is clearly once again calling Jesus God!!!!!!! The Coming and the coming in the clouds never refers to the Father in the NT but always to Jesus.
Rev 1:7-8
7 BEHOLD, HE IS COMING WITH THE CLOUDS, and every eye will see Him, even those who pierced Him; and all the tribes of the earth will mourn over Him. So it is to be. Amen.
8 "I Am the Alpha and the Omega," says the Lord God, "who is and who was and who is to come, the Almighty."
We know from Revelation 1:8 that Alpha and Omega is the Almighty. So we can see that Christ is the Almighty
Revelation 1:17
17And when I saw Him, I fell at his feet as dead. And He laid his right hand upon me, saying unto me, Fear not; I Am the first and the last:
We know from Revelation 1:17-18 that the first and the last is He that liveth, was dead, but is alive forevermore is Christ.
Rev 22:12-13
12 "Behold, I Am coming quickly, and My reward is with Me, to render to every man according to what he has done. 13 "I Am the Alpha and the Omega, the first and the last, the beginning and the end."
We know from Revelation 22:13 that the first and the last is the Alpha and Omega.
Rev 22:16,20
16 "I, Jesus, have sent My angel to testify to you these things for the churches. I am the root and the descendant of David, the bright morning star."
20 He who testifies to these things says, "Yes, I Am coming quickly." Amen. Come, Lord Jesus.
So we can see that the One who comes/is coming in the NT always refers to Jesus the Son of Man and NEVER refers to the Father. Therefore we can conclude it is Jesus who is coming whom John calls God the Alpha and Omega, the First and the Last.. This is sound biblical exegesis based on the context of the passage as well as the principle established in both Testaments on the One who is Coming in/with the Clouds- The Son of Man not the Father !!!!!!
hope this helps !!!
@justbyfaith, he is carnal, and think carnal, so you have to used carnal thinking for to be understood. so lets use this scripture, Acts 17:26 "And hath made of one blood all nations of men for to dwell on all the face of the earth, and hath determined the times before appointed, and the bounds of their habitation;" NOW HE MIGHT RESPOND TO THAT.....
see he has no clue that "Father" is a title of the Lord Jesus. ... oh well...........

Hi VIJ...Do not know if 1 Corinthians 15:24-28 has been brought up yet or discussed. 1 Corinthians 15:24-28 Then cometh the end, when he shall have delivered up the kingdom to God, even the Father; when he shall have put down all rule and all authority and power. [25] For he must reign, till he hath put all enemies under his feet. [26] The last enemy that shall be destroyed is death. [27] For he hath put all things under his feet. But when he saith all things are put under him, it is manifest that he is excepted which did put all things under him. [28] And when all things shall be subdued unto him, then shall the Son also himself be subject unto him that put all things under him, that God may be all in all.
@VictoryinJesus This in my humble opinion would be well after the Rapture of the church.Do not know if 1 Corinthians 15:24-28 has been brought up yet or discussed. 1 Corinthians 15:24-28 Then cometh the end, when he shall have delivered up the kingdom to God, even the Father; when he shall have put down all rule and all authority and power. [25] For he must reign, till he hath put all enemies under his feet. [26] The last enemy that shall be destroyed is death. [27] For he hath put all things under his feet. But when he saith all things are put under him, it is manifest that he is excepted which did put all things under him. [28] And when all things shall be subdued unto him, then shall the Son also himself be subject unto him that put all things under him, that God may be all in all.
When we do not know but Jesus did say in Matthew 24 there would be signs that His Coming soon approaches and to be ready for He will come like a thief in the night when its unexpected.Who is the One that is Coming ?
OP ^
When?
Totally incorrect. Christ has been the only begotten Son of God from eternity past. In the incarnation the only begotten Son (also called the Word of God) took human form as Jesus of Nazareth. Micah 5:2 includes both aspects of Christ -- His eternal existence as well as His birth in Bethlehem.He was begotten in the incarnation
One would think that no one could ever be confused about this matter. And yet here we are.The Coming and the coming in the clouds never refers to the Father in the NT but always to Jesus.
you add to Scripture, and you dont have a clue how far off you are, and no one will be able to tell you bc you do not have the ears to hear. And i guess this wont help any either huh. So then keep speaking as if you know, so that the rest of may understand that you dont i guessIsa 44:6
