The Messianic prophecy at Isaiah 9:6 foretold of several titles that would befit Jesus, but none would refer him to Almighty God. (Isaiah 9:7) God’s Adversary, Satan the Devil, is called a “god” (2 Corinthians 4:4) because of his dominance over men and demons (1 John 5:19; Luke 11:14-18), then...

Considering John 10:30-38, compare: John 17:22, 23; Philippians 2:6. These are two of many, many other scriptures related to this topic.

Giving respect to others is just and paramount; however, showing, agreeing, adapting, etcetera to “doctrinal diversity” is suspect and not supported scripturally. There are many scriptural references about this subject. I have identified, for consideration, a lengthy list. Consider: Matthew...

Jesus Christ was speaking to his disciples in the present of the Pharisees and scribes prior to the account at Luke 16:19-31; and, taught lessons by telling this story through the means of parables or illustrations.-Matthew 13:34, 35; Luke 8:10. In this illustration, the rich man depicts the...

The following scriptures are in suport of your post: Matthew 7:14, 21-23; 15:8, 9; 22:14; Luke 13:24-27.
