    The Absolute Equality of Jesus With The Father

    Is 9:6 For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.

    "The word was a god"?

    John 14 8 Philip saith unto him, Lord, show us the Father, and it sufficeth us. 9 Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip? he that hath seen me hath seen the Father; and how sayest thou then, Show us the Father? 10 Believest thou not that...

    "The word was a god"?

    Matthew 28 8 And they left the tomb quickly with fear and great joy, and ran to report to His disciples. 9 And behold, Jesus met them and said, “Rejoice!” And they came up and took hold of His feet, and worshiped Him. 10 Then Jesus *said to them, “Do not be afraid; go, bring word to My brothers...

    "The word was a god"?

    He is called Emmanuel and Jesus and the Everlasting Father and the I AM - Father, Son and Holy Spirit are One in Nature and Name.

    "The word was a god"?

    I haven't missed the point - I am dismissing it. There is no subordination in the Godhead - the three are one and act in unity.

    "The word was a god"?

    Thanks for your input, much appreciated. How do we know the name Jesus was not divinely inspired? Matt 1 20 But when he had thought this over, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, “Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary as your wife; for the Child who...

    "The word was a god"?

    Caution... the term 'father' is used to describe a relationship much more profound than what we know of human relationships. It should also be noted that in John 17, Jesus was given the Father's name - so the Fathers name is Jesus also. 11 I am no longer going to be in the world; and yet they...

    "The word was a god"?

    I believe theology should flow from revelation, but that is a no go area because it is fraught with the fear of personal interpretation. I defend the personal aspect of the Godhead because of my personal encounters with Him. I have also immersed myself in nothing but Scripture for long periods...

    "The word was a god"?

    Frankly - Yes... Referring to part of the Godhead as impersonal is in-accurate and disrespectful.

    "The word was a god"?

    NIV John 16:13 But when he, the Spirit of truth, comes, he will guide you into all the truth. He will not speak on his own; he will speak only what he hears, and he will tell you what is yet to come. 1599 Geneva Bible... John 16:13 Howbeit, when he is come which is the spirit of truth, he...

    "The word was a god"?

    Mmmm... that's weird - I can't remember saying that, but the my memory is not what it used to be I guess...

    "The word was a god"?

    To say that part of the Godhead is an it rather than a He is disrespectful.

    "The word was a god"?

    So God has not watched over the process of preserving the accuracy of His Word and has allowed error to prevail such that the majority of translations are rubbish and only a little cult founded by false prophets have the truth and everyone else goes to Hell I don't think so.

    "The word was a god"?

    Yes.

    "The word was a god"?

    The Word is Jesus - not an 'it' - please be respectful.

    "The word was a god"?

    John 1 3 All things came into being through Him, and apart from Him nothing came into being that has come into being. This speaks of Jesus the Word. Jesus, the Father and the Spirit act together.

    Acts 2:38 has been abandoned by Christianity

    Well you guys are still at it... I wonder if you are praying for your neighbours to come to Jesus ??? With 73 posts that is between five and ten hours of disputing over words rather than seeking to bring the good news to the lost.
