I like it. I can see that it could be useful when you're struggling to find a particular verse, when the words used differ in different translations, e.g. I was trying to remember where it mentions excluding someone from the church (excommunicating) but I couldn't remember the phrase used, so I...

That's wrong! To be immortal means that it is impossible for you to die - nothing can kill you. A dictionary definition of the word immortal is "Not subject to death". If you are a human then you can easily be killed, e.g. you could be struck by lightening, fall over a cliff edge and be...

For me this settles it that God created heaven and earth in six 24 hour days. All the words translated as "day" or "days" is the same Hebrew word yome: Exodus 20 (WEB): (1) God spoke all these words, saying, (8) “Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy. (9) You shall labor six days, and...

They were angels; fallen angels: Job 1:6 (MKJV): (6) And a day came when the sons of God came to present themselves before Jehovah. And Satan also came among them. Job 38:4-7 (WEB): (4) “Where were you when I laid the foundations of the earth? Declare, if you have understanding. (5) Who...

It makes sense to use the forum tools for quoting posts, which is what you have just done. It clearly displays quoted text; I don't see the need to add to it. You didn't do that! It's not normally necessary to embolden text that you're quoting, as long as you don't quote more text than is...

That's what I did. :rolleyes: Both of the sentences that I quoted I believe are wrong, for the reasons that I stated. Particularly the latter sentence, in which you wrote "As far as the gospel is concerned, aliens on another planet are no different from indigenous people in ancient Australia...

Wrong. The Gospel message is that Jesus' sacrifice of his pefect human life pays the redemption price for all of mankind, so that all of mankind may have eternal life. Jesus' sacrifice applies only to humans that are descended from Adam, for he is paying Adam's penalty for sin - the death of a...

The angel is speaking to John, and it is unclear whether he is speaking the words of Jesus or of our Father, God. The expression is only used in Revelation 3 times (the reference Revelation 1:11 of the KJV is not genuine; more modern translations omit it). The first two references are clearly...

No verses in modern translations have Jesus claiming to be "the living God". It would be in conflict with John 6:68-69 (WEB): (68) Simon Peter answered him, “Lord, to whom would we go? You have the words of eternal life. (69) We have come to believe and know that you are the Christ, the Son...

No. You stated "Jesus knew he was God" in your post in this thread, so I expect you to give a reference in this thread. You frequently ask other posters to give a reference; I am asking you for a reference to support what you wrote. As you also often write, this is the second time I have asked.

Reference?

That's still no reason to suppose that the promised Messiah had to be God! What lousy reasoning! Romans 8:3 (WEB): (3) For what the law couldn’t do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God did, sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh and for sin, he condemned sin in the flesh...

He can't do that - he's dead! He died in 1999. The video is only 4m 27s long - surely you can spare that amount of time to seek more knowledge about Jesus! I think the end of the video will make you emotional. joy:

I don't think so. See the short video Ron Wyatt talking about JESUS blood sample for his explanation.

Why are you assuming only YHVH could "overcome the world". The Scriptures clearly state that YHVH's only begotten Son, Jesus, did that - Jesus said, John 16:33 (WEB): (33) I have told you these things, that in me you may have peace. In the world you have trouble; but cheer up! I have overcome...

You didn't say which translation you were quoting from, but it's interesting to note a difference in this verse depending on which translation you use. The Cambridge Bible notes says: to the only wise God our Saviour …] The form of the doxology in the Received Text presents a parallelism to...

I would call him/her "a person who has repented of their sins". If they also believe the Gospel and then are baptized, then I would call them a Christian. Christians are human beings, not angels. Jesus said, Mark 1:15 (WEB): (15) and saying, “The time is fulfilled, and God’s Kingdom is at...

Regardless, there is no path available for humans to take so that they can become angels. Your "suspicion" that humans become angels when they repent of all their sin is unscriptural nonsense.

Where the judgement takes place is totally irrelevant to what happens before the judgement!

It's science, not an assumption. Sound is vibrations and pressure waves in the air. A falling tree will still make a sound whether or not we are there to hear it. If you say "Good night" to your wife as you go to bed and I don't hear it because I am thousands of miles away, that doesn't mean...
