Hmm... Just like in the Bible. Jesus answered and said to him, “If anyone loves Me, he will keep My word" (John 14:23). “Now therefore, if you will indeed obey My voice and keep My covenant, then you shall be a special treasure to Me above all people; for all the earth is Mine” (Exodus 19:5)...

The Talmud served to explain how Jews in the diaspora practiced what the BIBLE explicitly said to do, pray toward the Temple. Christians worshiped in Temples daily. Every mountain Jesus was on to meet His Father was a rural Temple. He cleansed his Father's house with violence. Would you have...

It seems you recently "learned" from liars, you certainly didn't read the Quran. "Allah loves the doers of good" (Surah Al-Baqarah Ayat 195) "Allah loves those who are constantly repentant and loves those who purify themselves." (Surah Al-Baqarah Ayat 222) "Allah will love you and forgive you...

I love my KJV, in spite of its many errors, it's the key text by which I orient my study with the Strong's, I'm familiar with its unique vocabulary, making it easy to remember and mark in foot notes the errors. It's not perfect at all. With the tampering of the Deuteronomists, Masoretic Jews...

Indeed, God may have answered you with what you were ready for today. Have you ever heard of the Dual-Prophecies of Isaiah? The best example is the Immanuel prophecy in Isaiah 7 is clearly not about Jesus, but the birth of his own son. That doesn't mean it's not also a prophesy of Jesus.

Flawed retort. As a so-called Christian, its either not idolatry or else Jesus was an idolater when he purged the temple, commanded others to do religious works and prayed not to himself.

... No, just... no. You really need to read other books outside your gossipy social circle. Jews pray towards the Temple: “they shall pray toward this place and praise Your name, and repent of their sin, so that You may answer them.” (I Kings 8:35) Talmud says that Jews in the diaspora...

Oh, you meant "The Governing Body of Jehovah’s Witnesses", I misunderstood. I think individuals, not groups, go to hell. I think people will be in hell for their own sins, but sins are relative, those with the greater light receive the greater condemnation. God is a God of sinners, from...

Individual people are just as liable to personal apostacy as a governing body, if not more so with no one holding that person accountable. One thing the Bible says not to do is to separate from the body of Christ. It's one thing to reject all sects you know as false, it's another to be...

If one plans to take the Quran seriously, as Christians who believe the sonship of Christ means going against Muslim interpretations. If Muhammad was a prophet, then as Christians, Muslims are in Apostacy, the Quran went from an oral tradition to a book 200 years after Muhammad, in the middle of...

To the OP, nothing, in fact if a Non-Roman Gentile who hasn't converted to Judaism in ancient Jerusalem tried to observe the Sabbath would be deemed in violation the Noahide Law and risked a death sentence for violating the Commandments. As fundamental to the Bible the covenants are, few today...

Yes, sir, y Apologies, I'm trying to figure out how to start a new thread, I just haven't figured it out yet.

You don't understand what I'm saying by "God". You don't know what the "Logos" is. There are two Biblical meanings for God, there is the proper nouns and titles like the Most High, the Father, and what the Hebrews calls a "god" or an "el", is any being for whom El was their Father, this word...

But if the Catholic churches were in apostasy for 800 years or more, how are Protestants not apostates along with them? If the Roman Catholic Church doesn't have authority, Protestants certainly cannot claim authority inherited from them. The Catholics at least have the chutzpah to make an...

Its important to understand where someone stands to avoid misunderstanding. It is simple but complicated. The answer is yes, depending on context and perspective. I believe the New Testament's Letter to the Hebrews, Jesus is the being called Yahweh in the Old Testament's narrative, the one the...

The one Angel of Yahweh in the burning bush speaking as though he were El, is the Word or preincarnate Christ, an agent of God, not God himself.

That might be because I think God isn't three per se, El Elyon is one being, and Yahweh and the Ruah are not parts of one God but possess an investure of authority by which the Father allows them to speak in his name. Like how Moses was made "god to Pharoh". They are permanent royal vassals...

Psalm 82:1, Elohim can't be standing in the midst of one elohim. Depends on how we define the distinction and unity of these other beings. Lets say God had a wife, Asherah exists. Is she then one with God the same way as the three to make her God? Generally, Trinitarians require members of the...

It could be that "Elohim" which literally means "The Gods" (-im is a plural suffix) and is a unified lot of gods. Elyon, the Most High God had adopted 70 angels as his sons over the 70 nations, the gods of the council of God, the watchers make decrees, the "us" in Genesis who went down to...

Hear, hear! Apostolic Succession! The origin church either perpetuated for 2000 years or it didn't! Any branch cut from a dead tree is also dead. The Bible never disbanded the priests, bishops or the Apostles, unless one is a Restorationist and claim to have restored the Apostleship, Protestants...
