    After effects

    How do you mean? Do you mean, food, possessions, love, truth, what exactly? But, do remember, according to my illness analogy, only certain of those offer a cure. Only some of those would get to the root of what is actually the problem. You see...and to answer your question...we don't...

    After effects

    Guilty as charged. However, that all speaks of this physical world...like symptoms speak of illness. There is no cure in that approach. Yes, we've run short of band aids, but they were never going to heal us. First aid is good, and it does help, but that is not the real need.

    Transitioning from BELIEVING to KNOWING.

    Unfortunately, even faith can be shaken. But, yes, we have been warned. But the point is, as a church, as children of God, as students of the scriptures, as those upon whom the light of God has been cast--we have not learned how each revelation comes to us. And when pressed, most act like they...

    Jesus proclaims to pray to the Father.

    You are trying to rationalize and promote what you yourself believe as if Jesus was only a man--by your own understanding, against the counsel of God. You are simply wrong. He was before the foundation of the world, and defined by God Himself as His own image, His own word, His own right...

    Jesus proclaims to pray to the Father.

    Did any of us--did you, have your own right hand create the universe? Did you give identity and voice to Him to speak your word? Did you choose a people to be your own, to set as a light upon a hill, that all may see and believe? Did you send your servants ahead with your word, only to have...

    Transitioning from BELIEVING to KNOWING.

    It is the strangest thing! After two thousand years and the establishing of the Christian Bible (to say nothing of Judaism or other beliefs), everyone seems to be set in their ways. I mean like a petrified forest--pillars of stone! Before that, before this Christian age, there were all kinds of...

    The one who is still to come

    My only response to your comment was sadness, because in spite of me, I only explained what is not mine, but what is written...and you did not see it and blamed me for being open and transparent about it, when though I may appear to be vague out of humility, I have every reason to be more than bold.

    OSAS from the Gnostics

    I turned you accusation against me back on you, because it was you who were not taking all scripture into account. Now you continue to speak against what you yourself are guilty of.

    What did "we" do to you?

    The one who is still to come

    What did you think this was? I just--being transparent--explained one of the great mysteries of God...a fulfillment of promise and prophecy.

    The one who is still to come

    God has given us an image in creation, called it an image, then came Himself as an image, and said He was an image of God, saying they were the same. That is the issue here. But if you stop looking at it, it doesn't change anything.

    The one who is still to come

    Good, that's a start. However, we have been discussing matters regarding both heaven and earth, where exists a divide. Which, whatever ism position you prescribe to, doesn't mean you can deny the hand of God is actually God...that is without denying God. But it goes so much deeper than that--

    The one who is still to come

    First off, I am not a "trinitarian." But what I have been addressing, explains why those who have believed in a Trinity, have not been wrong, but rather only shortsighted. Meaning, they have only considered things according to this world where all is divided out of God--even Christ, just as Eve...

    The one who is still to come

    That is because what was One was divided and then is reunited in the end. That is the full trajectory. One putting His own right hand to a task for a time, does not make for two--except among men, who themselves are divided out of God as Eve was divided out of Adam. Do you understand and know...

    The one who is still to come

    The Trinity is not wrong for a time, but only for eternity.

    The one who is still to come

    I have explained the matter for you: such divisions (even as One God being two persons) only exist in this world.

    After effects

    Because if you have another option you are thinking of, you either "believe" it, or "know" it to be true. Again, only two options. But what are you really trying to say here, that you once believed that life was something more than meets the eye, but it failed you somehow?
  18. ScottA

    The one who is still to come

    The is the thinking of men, world talk. If you are not open to thinking differently, we're finished, you're finished. But why would you stop following the full trajectory? Many have, just as it is written.

    The one who is still to come

    Across the great chasm between heaven and earth there is only One God. It is only when communicating beyond that dividing point that "us", and terms like "Father" and "Son" exist. The divide is the divide of many things revealed of God that are not otherwise divided--like (for example)...

    The one who is still to come

    This is one of those matters that "rightly dividing the word of truth" is all about. If we mix the terms of men, history, timing, and this world, with much of what is revealed within that context, but is not of that context...there will be confusion. In this case, Revelation 1:8 does not apply...
