    Nation born in a day in 1948?

    i see; so you don't agree with Daniel 2 or Romans 13. you see mankind as sovereign. i presume you're also Pelagian? have you read much of Habakkuk? given it any thought?

    Nation born in a day in 1948?

    what???? if you agree China is ordained by God then who exactly do you think created and brought the Chinese people together and appointed them to be a nation? the only way you can eat your cake and have it too is to vomit it out bro. so it hardly counts as eating, IMO - and not really what...

    Nation born in a day in 1948?

    You don't believe it is God who appoints times or seasons, or God who raises up and knocks down kings? OK here is a second witness: Romans 13:1 There is no power but of God: the powers that be are ordained of God.

    Nation born in a day in 1948?

    Daniel 2:21 He changes the times and the seasons; He removes kings and raises up kings; He gives wisdom to the wise and knowledge to those who have understanding.

    The Teacher and students

    John 2:24-25 Jesus did not commit Himself to them, because He knew all and had no need that anyone should testify of man, for He knew what was in man.

    One of the Best Explanations I've seen on Satan's sin.

    i agree. @Aunty Jane you are so far off i don't know where to begin, i know you won't listen ((as demonstrated in this thread)) no matter where i begin, and it would take so much effort to try to correct you -- so much probably wasted effort -- that i have hardly the strength to even bother...

    One of the Best Explanations I've seen on Satan's sin.

    i'm stuck on, why does 'in the image of God' have to mean man necessarily has to have a freedom to hate his Creator? this, to me, is a very humanist-centric view. to me, this needs to be qualified & supported, not just stated. it is an ubiquitous view nowadays, but i have never once seen a...

    One of the Best Explanations I've seen on Satan's sin.

    But to the wicked God says: What have you to declare My statutes, Or take My covenant in your mouth, Seeing you hate instruction And cast My words behind you? When you saw a thief, you consented with him, And have been a partaker with adulterers. You give your mouth to evil, And your tongue...

    One of the Best Explanations I've seen on Satan's sin.

    More specifically, @Pythagorean12 mentioned God knowing us before the womb. You took that to mean 'before we existed' - - so i have the question, why do you think you didn't exist before your physical body was formed? - - but specifically as to why should we believe that omniscient God knew us...

    It's called "omniscience"

    yes; she prefers modern liberal Judaism to the Truth. if she at least argued from the Talmud she might be reasoned with.

    It is exactly what you asked for. John 8:24: ean gar me pistuesete hoti Ego Eimi John 8:28: tote gnosesthe hoti Ego Eimi John 8:58: prin Abraam genethai Ego Eimi John 13:19: hina pisteusete hotan genetai Ego Eimi John 18:5: legei autois Ego Eimi John 18:6: hos oun eipen autois Ego Eimi John...

    One of the Best Explanations I've seen on Satan's sin.

    i gave you 7 passages. John 6:48-51 are Ego Eimi - and they are very unique. there are 7 of these in John, each presenting Himself as uniquely divine. The Door. The Way. The Life. The Resurrection. The Truth. The Vine. The Bread. The Good Shepherd. these aren't the claims of an angel or a mere...

    One of the Best Explanations I've seen on Satan's sin.

    it is exactly what you asked for and denied existed. look at the Greek. there is no direct object to Ego Eimi in any of those. i mean you can be dishonest if you want and try to change these, corrupting the Word but the truth stands.

    One of the Best Explanations I've seen on Satan's sin.

    no, this is the context: The Pharisees therefore said to Him, “You bear witness of Yourself; Your witness is not true.” (John 8:13) everything that follows down to v. 59 is in that context, answering that specific objection. Jesus is telling them why His testimony is true even if it isn't...

    One of the Best Explanations I've seen on Satan's sin.

    is He speaking in Greek or is He speaking in Aramaic or Hebrew? if He is speaking Hebrew what did He actually say instead of Ego Eimi? Ani Hu? ((Isaiah 41:4, 43:10, 43:25, 45:18, 46:4, 51:12 and 52:6)) all of these in Septuagint are rendered "Ego Eimi" in Greek, exactly like Exodus 3:14 is also...

    With men, impossible, but not with God; for with God all things are possible. (Mark 10:27) No one takes it from Me, but I lay it down of Myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again. (John 10:18)

    One of the Best Explanations I've seen on Satan's sin.

    why do you keep talking about The Living One in 'past tense' ??? do you imagine He's dead? another priest arises in the likeness of Melchizedek, Who has become a priest, not on the basis of a legal requirement concerning bodily descent, but by the power of an indestructible life. (Hebrews 7:15-16)

    Moreover, brethren, I would not that ye should be ignorant, how that all our fathers were under the cloud, and all passed through the sea; and were all baptized unto Moses in the cloud and in the sea; and did all eat the same spiritual meat; and did all drink the same spiritual drink: for they...
