John 20:28 (part 3) Obviously, neither Jesus’ response, nor Thomas’ responses (before and after his statement at John 20:28), nor John’s summation of the event at 20:31 recognizes Thomas’ statement to mean that Jesus is the only true God! So it is clear from context that neither Jesus, nor...

John 20:28 (part 2) What about the rest of the context? (1) Thomas did not bow down, worship, etc. upon learning that it was really Jesus and saying 'my lord and my god.' He could not have just discovered that he was in the presence of God and acted the way he did! (2) It’s also obvious that...

John 20:28 (part 1) Notice that the disciples who had seen Jesus earlier did not tell Thomas that Jesus was God (v.25)! This is an incredible oversight if they had really believed they had seen God! Certainly, if they had discovered that Jesus was really God when they saw him resurrected, they...

Heb. 1:8 (the OP, Remember?) Here is a smattering of my study of this scripture: Literal word-for-word translation of Heb. 1:8: “Toward but the son the throne of you the god into the age of the age” - Notice that there is no verb here. Translators are free to insert the verb (probably “is”)...

The way modern man has chosen to classify certain things does not make them basic, important elements of the creation known to all men from the　very beginning.　 Time does not have to be classified as past, present and future.　 It can be classified in many ways: Pre-flood and Post-flood;　 B.C and...

What did Thomas Mean? - Part 2 What about the rest of the context? (1) As noted before, Thomas did not bow down, worship, etc. upon learning that it was really Jesus and saying 'my lord and my god.' He could not have just discovered that he was in the presence of God and acted the way he did...

What did Thomas mean at John 20:28? - Part 1 Thomas had said (verse :25) that unless something happened he would “not believe.” What was it that Thomas refused to believe? Was it that he refused to believe that Jesus was equally God with the Father? There is certainly no hint of this before or...

Ro. 1:20, NASB - "For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes, His eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly seen, being understood through what has been made, so that they are without excuse." We need to see some important thing that everyone could see from the...

Ro. 1:20, NASB - "For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes, His eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly seen, being understood through what has been made, so that they are without excuse." Please show where in nature mankind would clearly see the three-in-oneness...

Is. 48:16 - Come ye near unto me, hear ye this; I have not spoken in secret from the beginning; from the time that it was, there am I: and now the Lord GOD [Jehovah], and his spirit, hath sent me. - KJV. Commenting on this scripture some trinitarians will say: "The speaker of Is. 48:16 is...

In English we use “rise” and “raise” with two distinctly different meanings. “Rise” is what a person or thing does by itself to itself: “I rise every morning at dawn;” “the sun will rise soon.” “Raise,” on the other hand, is what a person does to some other object or person: “He raised the...

Is Jesus ‘Alpha and Omega’ in Rev. 22:13? Now look at Rev. 22:8-16. John is identified as the speaker in 22:8. The angel speaks in v. 9). The angel apparently continues speaking in v. 10). The angel may be still speaking in v. 11) --- or it could be John or even someone else (as implied in...

Where in Isaiah (proper references, please)? Proof that Jesus is saying he is the Alpha and Omega in Revelation?
