It means what it says, that Jesus existed before the world was created. God had no beginning so he existed for an eternity before he created the world. That Jesus existed before the founding of the world says nothing to prove he existed more than a moment before the creation of the world. It...

You quoted John 17:5. I was typing my response when you posted yours. You made the point about God’s glory better than I would have.

In English we capitalize names and titles. “I Am” is clearly a name or title at Exodus 3:14 and so is appropriately capitalized. However many of those same translations do not capitalize “I am” at John 8:58 and other I am verses. Clearly those translators did not see ego eimi as a name at John...

Jesus having glory in his pre-human life does not mean he was equal to his Father then. Jesus existing before the world existed does not mean he was co-eternal with his Father. It just means he is older than the world. John 17:3 remains clear. The Father is the only true God and Jesus is the...

You made this statement sir: Note that the word "he" is italicized meaning all italicized words in the KJV of the English Bible, is not in the original manuscript! IOW, Jesus is the "GREAT I AM" of the Old Testament! What is the "Great I Am" that you are speaking about? Here are 2 interesting...

I’m still waiting for you to reconcile Titus 1:2. Based on your thinking, God telling us he gave his only begotten Son so we can have everlasting life could be a lie and we really don’t have any hope.

The hope is not that God cannot lie. The hope is “of the everlasting life that God…. promised long ago. The reason we can be sure of that hope is that the one who made that promise, God, cannot lie. It just doesn’t get more “explicit” than that. So if you believe that “all scripture is inspired...

Titus 1:1, 2 Paul, a slave of God and an apostle of Jesus Christ according to the faith of God’s chosen ones and the accurate knowledge of the truth that is according to godly devotion and is based on a hope of the everlasting life that God, who cannot lie, promised long ago. Do you have any...

All that angel did was move those 400 false prophets to continue saying what they had been saying and what wicked King Ahab wanted to hear. God will turn people over to the lie. “But the lawless one’s presence is by the operation of Satan with every powerful work and lying signs and wonders...

Well said.

To me this is simple and you don’t even have to compare other verses. 1 John 5:20 “We know also that the Son of God has come and has given us understanding, so that we may know “him”(him who? God) who is true. And we are in “him” (him who? God) who is true — even in “his” Son (whose Son? God...

So tell me, can God lie?

Of course God is limited. He can’t lie. He can’t be unjust. He also can’t accept those who love lies.

We disagree Bread. How can anyone think you can be with someone and be the someone you are with. How mysterious!

That this is problematic to the trinity is likely the reason why the KJV drops “nor the Son” from Matthew.

This is not a question of God being all knowing. This is about Jesus not knowing things that God does know and clearly he does not. This is also made very clear when God gave the glorified Jesus the Revelation to give to John. Truth is usually very simple.

Setting aside the aspect of how marriage is established, (that was just an illustration of my question) do you believe that those practicing fornication will inherit the Kingdom of God? Your comments bring some questions to my mind. If a couple decides to live together and wants to define that...

Please elaborate.
