Jesus was not born on December 25th, as the churches teach and celebrate. It should be noted that when Jesus was born, the "shepherds (were) living out of doors and keeping watches in the night over their flocks.."(Luke 2:8) Around the middle of October, the shepherds take their flocks inside...

Genesis 1:26 does not support Jesus as God, for it does not say that Jesus is God, but rather it says: "And God went on to say: “Let us make man in our image, according to our likeness, and let them have in subjection the fish of the sea and the flying creatures of the heavens and the domestic...

You just said a non-sensical statement, by saying that the "one God" is plural. It is either God as singular or "gods" as plural, but not "one God" as plural. It is like saying "the broom" is plural, or "the car" is plural. People, such as yourself, will go to great lengths to twist or distort...

Moses told the nation of Israel, in 1473 B.C.E., just before their entrance into the land of Canaan: "Listen, O Israel: Jehovah our God is one Jehovah."(Deut 6:4) Some 1500 years later, upon being asked "Which commandment is first of all ?", Jesus restated this: "The first is, ‘Hear, O Israel...

There is no triune God position. In fact, the word Godhead is not in the original reading. Rather, the three places where it is found in the King James Bible, the Greek words theios at Acts 17:29, theiotes at Romans 1:20, and theotes at Colossians 2:9 are all rendered by Strong's Exhaustive...

The words spirit and soul are interconnected, for life cannot exist one without the other. The word "spirit" comes from the Hebrew word ru´ach and the Greek pneu´ma, which comes from pne´o, meaning to “breathe or blow". The Hebrew and Greek words for spirit have the basic meaning of “breath”...

Despite the fact that Jesus himself said that he is God's "only-begotten Son" at John 3:16, that he was ' taught by the Father' at John 8:28, that he was granted "all authority...in heaven and on earth" by his Father at Matthew 28:18, that he is unaware of the "day and hour" as to the time when...

The churches of Christendom have taught that Jesus is God since the Council of Nicaea in 325 C.E. and at the Council of Constantinople in 381 C.E. that the holy spirit was called "Lord" and "life-giver" One year later, in 382 C.E., another synod met in Constantinople and affirmed the full...

The idea of a "hellfire" is indeed pagan ideology, originating in ancient Babylon many centuries before Christendom came into existence. About 2,000 years before the birth of Jesus, the Sumerians and the Babylonians believed in an underworld that they called the Land of No Return. This ancient...

You say that "if everything Christians need (which includes God's death) is in Christ then it requires that Christ was God." Does it ? First off, God does not die, for Habakukk 1:12 says: "Are you not from long ago, O Jehovah? O my God, my Holy One, you do not die." Psalms 90:2 says: "Before the...

You have not carefully read Colossians 1:15, for it says that Jesus "is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation", not God. Is an image of a person the same as the person ? Is a picture of a person the same as the person ? No. When you have taken a picture of a friend, that...

If Jesus is God, then this poses a problem, for (1) that the apostle Paul did not say that he was equal to God, but that "although he was existing in God’s form, gave no consideration to a seizure, namely, that he should be equal to God."(Phil 2:6) (2) Jesus himself said that "the Father is...

The apostle John wrote in about 98 C.E., that "these have been written down that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ the Son of God."(John 20:31) The apostle Peter, in answering Jesus question as to whom he thought he was, said: "You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.” (Matt 16:16)...

During the course of his 3 1/2 year ministry, Jesus gave many parables or illustrations to teach his audience vital Scriptural truths. Being known as "teacher"(Matt 17:24; 19:16), he fulfilled Psalms 78:2, which says: "In a proverbial saying I will open my mouth; I will cause riddles of long ago...

You still dodged the questions, just as the religious leaders of Jesus day.(Matt 21:23-27) All you have done is try to force a square peg in a round hole. God has already displayed his hate for the Israelites " burning their sons and daughters in the fire" (Jer 7:31)and yet you are so...

If you had done your "homework" concerning Mark 9:43-48, you could of seen that verses 44 and 46, which read in the King James Bible: "Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched" do not exist, but were added by another hand apparently after the fifth century C.E. The Montgomery...

Duckybill, Are you now saying that fire has nothing to do with "hell" when you're the one who quoted Matthew 7:15-19, and highlighted "THROWN INTO THE FIRE." ? You're the one who attached all the meaning of "fire" to "hell".

On the other hand, how much exacting scriptural information is needed to convince one of God's love and how he deals with people. The reference to "fire" does not necessarily mean literal fire, for John the Baptist told the Pharisees: "You offspring of vipers, who has intimated to you to flee...

The creation account at Genesis 1 needs to seen from the point of view of a person standing on the earth. Genesis 1:1 says: "In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth." The sources of it, of course, existed before that first day but were invisible from the surface of the earth...

Duckybill, This is not necessarily for you, but for anyone willing to be unbiased, willing to look at the Bible with an open mind, putting aside what the churches teach. There are three Greek words that are rendered as "hell" and "hellfire" in the King James Bible, Gehenna, which is the Greek...
