LOL! "the Word became flesh" what does that mean? He was with the Father before the foundation of the world. He was in the form of God/ Spirit. He conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of a virgin. And you say He did not "become" man! Christ had to become man in order to pay the sin debt for...

A monumental moment in history where the Protestant and the Catholic agree!

Well said, atpollard! I see nothing to be added to that, well done!

Sounds like a bunch of human reasoning to me! What is that worth? Add $3 to it and you can get a cup of coffee at Starbucks. But what did Paul say? Co. 1:16-20 "For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or...

How is it that you can't understand that Jesus Christ became a man, and at the same time became the Son of God in that humanity? In His humanity we are His brothers and sisters, heirs of the Kingdom of Father, that Christ earned in His death, burial, and resurrection to redeem man. Through His...

I won't argue that I'm ignorant, that would fit me perfectly. But I will argue the identity of the One True God. The One True God is the Creator among many other things. And the Scripture tells us repeatedly that Jesus Christ is that Creator. So when Scripture says, the One True God and...

Well it looks like you and Ahab wouldn't have cared much for Jesus or Paul. They didn't just step on toes, they kicked you around a bit when it came to sin. The average church today doesn't want to offend anyone with sin, let's see how that turns out at the judgement. I think it was Paul who...

This is the same as I have read from various theologians, the nations will send representatives. They cite this from Zech. 8:23 "Thus saith the LORD of hosts; In those days it shall come to pass, that ten men shall take hold out of all languages of the nations, even shall take hold of the...

So what you are saying is that God will not accept us until all sin is gone and we are living a perfect life?

Paul said that sin will not have dominion over us. Sin has dominion over us by way of the sin nature we inherited from the fall. It is the "sin that so easily besets us" as Paul said. Through faith in what Christ did on the Cross, we have been set free from that sin nature, it will not have...

I would say that makes Christ exclusive, unlike anything man has ever known. I like that, my Saviour is for sure unlike anything or anyone I have ever known. Your argument could be used as a case for the Trinity!

It's amazing how that the history after the Scripture is picked on and the rest discarded according to ones belief. If we choose to go with history there will always be doubt, so in reality we are both guessing with the emphasis on what we already believe, we simply fit that history into our way.

What do you suppose happened when Christ who was with the Father before the foundation of the world, from His own words, made Himself of no reputation, but humbled Himself to the will of the Father and became man? I thought so, you have no idea! And neither does any other man who has ever lived...

Yes, I read the link and it's all theory! Long before the 4th century there was record of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. But you believe what you will, it really doesn't matter to me, we will all know who Christ is soon enough.

Tertullian was born around 160 AD, and there is absolute proof that he spoke of "the baptism in the name of the Father, the Son, the Holy Spirit. There are many after him who spoke of it. You have no proof of what you say, and I ask you, who is the heretic? The one who supposedly added the...

Jesus became literally the Son of God the instant He was born. It is in His humanity that He is the Son of God. He was God before He became man, and now He is both God and Man. His is the Son of God in His humanity/God in the flesh, and He is God in the Spirit, in one existence. He is the God Man!

He plainly said it in Matt. 28:19, unless you believe some heretic added that into Scripture. "Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:"

Christ was declared the Son of God in His humanity. Before He became man he was in the form of the Father, before the foundation of the world. He was in fact God. The Triune God that no man can understand. He will forever more be both Man and God in His existence.

We certainly do disagree! Vs. 9 makes it clear what Peter is speaking of, it may seem that God is delaying the fulfillment of His promises, but it is for the purpose as Peter told us, vs. 9, "not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance." This is what Peter is...

This is of the spiritual realm, man can't understand this. I can show you where it originated, and I can explain it to you, but I can convince you of nothing, that is the work of the Lord to open your eyes, if it is possible for your eyes to be opened! Phil. 2:5-11 "Let this mind be in you...
