No, Paul was not like that. Paul discusses a priesthood "not in the manner of Aaron," suggesting that the individual mentioned might have been another person outside of that lineage, not levitical (which didn't exist at that time), like Heb. 7 explains. Paul clearly knew that although the...

We can see the God of Jesus during his baptism by John. At that significant moment, Jehovah endowed Jesus with the holy spirit from above. According to the Bible, it appeared as though a dove descended from heaven to rest upon Jesus: Matt. 3:16 After being baptized, Jesus immediately came up...

God's killing machine ... Wait! What? hlf I meant Satan's killing machine. God is caring for people while the other one is trying to accuse Christians. Rev. 12:10 I heard a loud voice in heaven say: “Now have come to pass the salvation and the power and the Kingdom of our God and the authority...

Same as yours: Jesus was elevated to a higher position after his resurrection, when he was exalted in heavens, firstly when he received the holy spirit from God and sent it to his followers: Acts 2:33 Therefore, because he was exalted to the right hand of God and received the promised holy...

Not only Isaiah 53:11 but also here: Isaiah 42:1 Look! My servant, whom I support! My chosen one, whom I have approved! I have put my spirit in him; He will bring justice to the nations. Isaiah 52:13 Look! My servant will act with insight. He will be raised up high, He will be elevated and...

Did you know that in the Christian Scriptures it is said that Jesus is a servant of God? Acts 3:13 The God of Abraham and of Isaac and of Jacob, the God of our forefathers, has glorified his Servant, Jesus, whom you handed over and disowned before Pilate, even though he had decided to release...

:rolleyes: Where is the fruit of the holy spirit in that forum member? James 3:13 Who is wise and understanding among you? Let him by his fine conduct demonstrate works performed with a mildness that comes from wisdom. 14 But if you have bitter jealousy and contentiousness in your hearts, do...

:rolleyes: Why do some forum members remind me of the Pharisees persecuting and trying to damage the public image of Christians?

I'm not particularly concerned with your viewpoint; it's completely insignificant, mainly because you tend to focus on dismissing forum members rather than addressing the posts you reference. I'm curious why so many pointless comments are permitted on this forum, which merely aim to undermine...

The Bible mentions being "born again" only in the dialogue between Jesus and Nicodemus. Jesus clarifies the necessity of being "born of water" and "born of the spirit," suggesting that those who haven't undergone water baptism cannot receive the holy spirit. Though there were a few rare...

When John mentioned the group of anointed ones whom Jesus selected to reign with him in heaven, he said: Rev. 1:5 (...) Jesus Christ, “the Faithful Witness,” “the firstborn from the dead,” and “the Ruler of the kings of the earth.” To him who loves us and who set us free from our sins by means...

Jesus' apostles had heard him say several times that he was going to a place where they could not follow him at that time. However, he told them not to be sad about it, because the person he was going to meet, his Father and God (John 20:17), had more power than they saw in him: John 14:28 You...

So, what is your answer to the question: When was Jesus elevated to "a higher position": in heaven before his earthly birth, during his life on Earth, or following his resurrection?

While some believers reject the notion that Jesus existed before his earthly life, others, including myself, affirm that Jesus was alongside God in heaven prior to the creation of the Universe. The belief in Jesus' pre-existence stands separate from the debate regarding whether Jesus (the Logos)...

I don't know what you're trying to express, but I do know it has nothing to do with what I just asked according to what the Scripture I quoted is saying: The question is: Who is THE MAJESTY in heaven, next to whom Jesus is?

The difference between Jesus (the Messiah, the Christ, the Son of God), and Jehovah, the God of the first Christian-Jews, was clear to the early Christians: 1) Jesus was anointed by Jehovah (Is. 61:1,2; Acts 4:27) 2) Jesus was the prophet "Moses-like" that Jehovah had promised (Dt. 18:15-18...

Can anyone deny that Jesus has a God whom he still considers his own God (Rev. 3:12)? The truth is amazing!!! A few seconds before taking his last breath, Jesus cried out to God with a loud voice. Matt. 27:46 About the ninth hour, Jesus called out with a loud voice, saying: “Eʹli, Eʹli, laʹma...

The Bible does mention that God's anointed ones have to be "born again," "born from above"... For that, they have to receive the Holy Spirit that marks them as heirs of the promise of going to heaven to reign with Jesus. Luke 22:28 “However, you are the ones who have stuck with me in my...

If Jesus has a God (Rev. 3:12; John 20:17), it is evident he is not the God of gods nor the Supreme, the Most High or the Majesty. Heb. 1:3 (...) after he had made a purification for our sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high. ... 8:1 Now this is the main point of what we...

First: 2 Thess. 2:2 in older manuscripts doesn't include the word "Christ" in the text, but "the Lord". Check here Center for New Testament Restoration Second: Even if there are some texts talking about "the day of Jesus Christ", like others talking about "the day of Jehovah" doesn't mean...
