Wow, there is so much misinformation in your post (which I understand, you’ve been ingrained with) it wouldn’t matter how I addressed the points… But maybe this: What about those religions that have killed their brothers in warfare? In circumstances where showing love would be the most...

You are not being entirely honest here. Where’s the definite article? It’s there in the first instance of theos, but not the second. Your statement… “In Jn. 1:1 we read, "Ἐν (In) ἀρχῇ (beginning) ἦν (was) ὁ (the) λόγος (Word), καὶ (and) ὁ (the) λόγος (Word) ἦν (was) πρὸς τὸν (with) θεόν (God)...

Huh? You apparently missed these…. “When the persecution of Christians was foretold, I remember Jesus telling his disciples to flee to the mountains when they saw Jerusalem “surrounded by encamped armies”. They must have wondered how that would be possible if those armies were already there...

Are you aware how much of this post contradicts the Biblical context? You said: “Your argument implies that Paul deliberately avoided saying Jesus is God, but this overlooks both the immediate context and the broader Pauline corpus.” No, Paul’s context agrees with it… 1 Corinthians...

Hello, my cousin… Are you aware of the Greek words used here, especially the one you’re highlighting for “robbery”? First, let’s take the phrase “in the form of”… morphē, in Greek. It means just that: “form” or “shape”. What “shape”, or “form”, does God have? He is spirit. Angels have that...

We would genuinely live by - and display - the fruitages of His spirit, which are “love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faith, mildness, self-control.” - Galatians 5:22-24 And we certainly wouldn’t get involved with sexual immorality!

“Born again” became possible after Christ, right? (His sacrifice made that possible.) Did Abraham know God? Certainly. Did King David? Yes, he wrote about many of Jehovah God’s qualities. Noah….Moses….Daniel. On and on.

Yes, very good! Justice according to YHWH’s (Jehovah’s) Law to Israel was ‘tooth for tooth, eye for eye.’ IOW, if a tooth was lost / taken, a tooth had to be replaced / given. What Adam lost for his offspring - the entire human race - was perfect human life. Was Adam created perfect? Yes...

Hello, hope you are having a good day. In the LXX (Greek Septuagint), “proskyneo” is used at Genesis 23:7, describing Abraham bowing down to the sons of Heth. Do you think Abraham was “worshipping” them, or just showing them honor? These NT Scriptures you quoted, where Jews were “proskyneo”...

What?

Yes the entire context….why did you leave out vs18, “No one has ever seen God”? I think I know why: because the rendering you accept, “the Word was God”, is contradictory of the facts…. Thousands saw Jesus, yet the Bible states “no one has ever seen God”! Is there another way to render John...

Well, Babylon the Great is also called a “woman”. (Revelation 17:3-5) That’s symbolic. So is “city.” Revelation 18:24 says of Babylon the Great, “in her was found the blood of prophets and of holy ones and of all those who have been slaughtered on the earth.” There’s no one literal city that...

Yes, exactly! Good job! Who taught you this truth? (Rev.20 says “death is thrown into the lake of fire.” The very next chapter, 21 (verse four), explains “death will be no more.”) Of course, this death is death that humans experience, due to Adam’s sin. (Romans 5:12) It would not include the...

You are contradicting Scripture: John 1:18, “No one has ever seen God.” And 1 John 4:12, “No one has seen God at any time.” (Thousands saw Jesus.)

Now, @quietthinker did not say that! Everyone sees your strawman (twisted) responses. Would Jesus do that?

I noticed this reply a while back, and I was going to let it slide, but I decided to respond: Really, I don’t think you do, because then you proceeded to try and tear it down. Notice, I said try…. Actually, the dating techniques used wouldn’t be accurate… One source of the Flood’s waters were...

You did not answer my question… How do you burn death? Why is it “thrown into the Lake of Fire”? How does that work?

Like the vast majority of mankind, they will be given a resurrection. Acts 24:15. The “judgement” that is mentioned, is based on what they do, after their resurrection… not what they did before their death. — Romans 6:7.

Then. Prove. It. Oh, I think you’d push. “‘Death was thrown into the Lake of Fire.” (Revelation 20:13,14) How do you burn death? The Lake of Fire is not literal! Just another of Christendom’s misunderstandings & lies.

Hello, my cousin… Are you sure? But in that very account at Genesis 2:17, God told Adam, “But as for the tree of the knowledge of good and bad, you must not eat from it, for in the day you eat from it you will certainly die.” Adam died when he was 930 years of age. So going by the account...
