    Jesus Christ The Only Wise God

    Origen actually taught: The agent of redemption as of all creation is the Divine Logos {‘the Word’} or Son of God, who is the perfect image or reflection of the eternal Father. Though a being distinct, derivative, and subordinate. - p. 551, An Encyclopedia of Religion, Ferm (ed.), 1945...

    Jesus Christ The Only Wise God

    After more than 1600 years of trinitarian dominance, redefinition, rewording, and selective translating, it should not be surprising that the trinitarian translations of the existing (mostly late) copies of the manuscripts of those early Christian writers will at times appear trinitarian. See...

    Jesus is Michael

    John 8:58 post continued: Another reason for the different renderings of John 8:58 by these trinitarian scholars is based on the NT Greek grammar. There are a number of reasons why a present tense verb in NT Greek (such as ego eimi) may be rendered properly in a different tense in English (see...

    Jesus is Michael

    ....... You do know that NT Greek IS koine Greek, do you not? (See the titles of the the quoted sources) Do you not see John 8:58 specifically cited in most of the quoted references? Perhaps if you read my post again with a little care you would find the errors in your response: John 8:58...

    Is Jesus Good?

    Jesus made it very clear that NO ONE is GOOD (agathos) EXCEPT GOD. - Mark 10:18. But see how one of the members of his body is described at Acts 11:24. Barnabas is a GOOD (agathos) person! If Jesus can say, when he was called a GOOD teacher, "Don't call me good (agathos) [unless you recognize me...

    Does God want us to use His name?

    Earlier Hebrew used the waw ('w' sound) whereas modern Hebrew has changed it to the vav ('v' sound). So it was YHWH or Yehowah.

    Does God want us to use His name?

    So do Joshua and Isaiah (and many others) names. I quit my job (retired) 32 years ago.

    Does God want us to use His name?

    I'm sorry I haven't been able to keep up as well as I would like in this and other threads. Has anyone pointed out that hallelujah is used 4 times referring to God in Revelation 19?

    Jesus is Michael

    These translations (most by trinitarians) render ego eimi at John 8:58 as: (1) “I HAVE BEEN” - alternate reading in 1960 thru 1973 reference editions of NASB (2) “I HAVE BEEN” - The New Testament, G. R. Noyes (3) “I HAVE BEEN” - “The Four Gospels” According to the Sinaitic Palimpsest, A...

    Jesus is Michael

    John 8:58 Those Jews had asked how Jesus could have possibly known Abraham who had died nearly 2000 years before. Jesus’ reply was obviously an explanation that he had been in existence even before Abraham had been born and was not merely an explanation of identity. It is ludicrous to...

    Jesus is Michael

    Read the text for John 9:9. The blind man is identifying himself. This is unlike John 8:58 where Jesus is asked, not who he is, but to explain how could have seen Abraham.

    Does God want us to use His name?

    "'For to us a child is born, to us a Son is given, and the government will be on His shoulders. And He will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.' Isaiah 9:6 That's difficult to get your mind around - isn't it?" - post #2 above. Ignoring honest...

    What is the name of the son per Matt 28:19?

    Again, '(from post #6 above): New Testament language experts tell us that “name” (onoma) usually refers to a personal name (or proper noun for a thing). So why do even some very trinitarian NT language experts (who certainly want it to mean a single personal name for three “persons”!) say that...

    What is the name of the son per Matt 28:19?

    What is the name of the Son? #176 Joshua@21: “So essentially. In order for it to support your belief, words that aren't there have to be added to Isaiah 9:6 ”Let me ask you this. We know from Scripture that Jesus is God and God is Jesus (because Jesus says "before Abraham was I AM" and "I and...

    What is the name of the son per Matt 28:19?

    Isaiah 9:6 Personal names in the ancient Hebrew and Greek are often somewhat cryptic to us today. The English Bible translator must fill in the missing minor words (especially in names composed of two or more Hebrew words) such as “my,” “is,” “of,” etc. in whatever way he thinks best in...

    What is the "straight Gate"

    "Straight gate"? One of the problems with using the KJV is the changes in the English language since 1611. Matt. 7:13 speaks of the "strait" gate which means "narrow" gate. \

    What is the name of the son per Matt 28:19?

    ............................................. The name of the Son is Jesus. The name of Jesus' Father is YHWH (Yehowah). The name of the Holy Spirit is ....... Wait. The HS has no personal name. Probably because it is not a person. Its description (holy spirit) is in the neuter gender in...
