    Jesus proclaims to pray to the Father.

    Sounds like you're having a melt down...and you are not listening. So be it.

    Jesus proclaims to pray to the Father.

    In John's gospel, the Word being with God and God...is the revelation of Jesus Christ, by John's witness. Again, One and the same. One God.

    Jesus proclaims to pray to the Father.

    What missing piece? All you did is attempt to rationalize polytheism, that the Father and the Son share the same throne. To the contrary, I have explained what is actually true--that God's creation is just that, a mere creation--wherein there is a created character playing the part of Himself...

    So you think it's FAIR that some people don't carry their own weight, but should be served by others who do?

    h Hallelujah! What you were given was the keys to the kingdom--first given to Peter in "knowing" that Jesus was the Christ. Thank you! Where that leaves us...is at the end of the reign of false teachers--though there are still many who linger, at that place where Jesus promised the Holy...

    Jesus proclaims to pray to the Father.

    The problem here, is that you make it seem as if it all began at the beginning of creation...which is simply not true. On the contrary, it is only the revelation of these events that began at the beginning of creation. The actual events themselves occurred (past tense) "before the foundation of...

    Jesus proclaims to pray to the Father.

    Okay. It is not that Jesus "became" One with the Father, but rather that He became a man after already being One with the Father. But our perspective and our disadvantage viewpoint has cause Jesus' identity to appear almost opposite of what is actually true. In reality, "He was, and is, and is...

    Who is the Word of God, the Word of Life?

    Thank you Matthew, I will definitely check it out!

    Because things don't just appear every morning as if by magic. Do you not understand that in order for something to be "free" for one person, another person has to work and pay for it in addition to working and paying for their own needs?

    Transitioning from BELIEVING to KNOWING.

    Hmmm, it would appear you have not understood my question. You have been kind and loving, so I am going to do what I said I would not: The question is: God has a method of communicating and giving revelation that He has established. What is that method? The answer, is: Other than the...

    Jesus proclaims to pray to the Father.

    Jesus was not God per se while He was a mere image of God. Not unlike any of us also. In fact, we call this life--and it's not life at all until we pass from being a mere created image to be as God--that is of the same spirit, and One because He is one. As for giving everything back to God...

    Jesus proclaims to pray to the Father.

    These are big questions/matters, so one at a time: Jesus did not "become" One with the Father, but was One before--for eternity. Then He "became" the "image" of God like all other men, and when God's concept of extending His tent to include mankind was "finished", Jesus was no longer an "image"...

    There are "necessities" and then there are "rights." Most people understand that they are different, and there are not guarantees or rights when it comes to basic personal needs that one would normally assume to be personal care and responsibility. There are many measures taken to care for those...

    Transitioning from BELIEVING to KNOWING.

    For sure, but what would you say is His method--basically His part is, in communicating with us? We communicate with each other by talking or writing, and a multitude of gestures. But how would you describe His communication method(s) with humanity?

    Transitioning from BELIEVING to KNOWING.

    It seems like a good time to ask the question: What are God's main established method(s) of communication and revelation with us? How would you answer? It would be good to hear where people are at--what your understanding of God's method(s) actually are. This would appear to be an essential...

    Other than the typical human issues of living in a body of flesh and a fallen world--doing great! RHS Thanks for your comments!

    You will indeed be with God.

    Jesus proclaims to pray to the Father.

    That is great advice. It does not, however, properly define who Jesus is. The issue of who Jesus is, is only to be understood properly from God's perspective, rather than our own. In other words, putting ourselves in God's position, it would be like one of us sending images online to explain...

    Jesus proclaims to pray to the Father.

    I have not been saying what I merely "believe."
