But it is equally as plausible Jesus was quoting it. I use those words because they fit my position, not that I need to justify my position to you or anyone. If you read and interpret my response correctly you would understand I do accept the words Here you are making an argument based on the...

Paul's preference is directed to, "at home with the Lord". Paul is talking about death. Because he prefers it has no bering on the content of his subject. To be away from the body is to be present with the Lord. Paul knows when one is not present in the body, it immediately goes to the Lord...

Concerning impassibility and the OP and my brief exploration of it: This subject is concerning the First person of the Trinity, God the Father; theology proper. God is not subject to anything involuntary, yet He is capable of experiencing genuine relation to His creation. All of His active...

A few things concerning heaven. First the concept of Abraham's bosom is from a parable. Jesus is not telling of an actual event, rather He is using language people can understand to explain a specific point. We need to understand the point that was made as opposed to being dogmatic about the...

John 10:30 "I and the Father are one." Jesus is the Logos of God. (John 1:14) Divine of the Divine, God above all gods, Jesus is the second person of the Trinity, and the Trinity is one God in three persons. God is One; Jesus is God. There is only one God. John 1 1In the beginning was the...

Let's look to the phrase first. It seems Jesus is quoting from Psalm 22:1. This is a Psalm that goes on to proclaim, "From the horns of the wild oxen you have rescued me … in the midst of the congregation I will praise you” (vv. 21–22) It can be argued that Jesus always had redemption in mind...

You state Jesus stopped being God. This is your heretical mind confusing you. For Jesus to be God He remains being God, always. There can be no pause else He is not God but something lesser. Fully God, fully man. You can talk about me, and Calvin, and the Pharisees all you like. That is...

I completely understand what you are proclaiming, and it is heretical. Heresy is heresy. You are proclaiming heresy. Jesus never stopped being divine. God can not cease being God, else He is not God but something lesser. Jesus answered them, "Destroy this temple, and in three days I will...

If you can not see denying the divinity of Christ is heresy to orthodoxy I can't help you in you. God is responsible for the hypostatic union. John 1 supports the hypostatic union. God, the Logos, took on flesh (humanity). Jesus took on the sin of the world. This put a separation between...

Jesus never ceased being God. You speak heresy here. Hypostatic union states Jesus is fully God and fully human. God, in the person of Jesus Christ, paid the penalty for sin; that being death. It is not that God ceased in being taking on death, the divine nature is eternal, yet the God-man...

Are we speaking only of the Father and not of the Son? The Son was fully human, so his potentiality was not limited in emotions. It is not a sin to feel emotions, the sin steps in through thought and action. This must be only theology proper... How do we explain wrath or the many times the...

Amen.

An act of God.

Therefore I want you to understand that no one speaking in the Spirit of God ever says "Jesus is accursed!" and no one can say "Jesus is Lord" except in the Holy Spirit. - 1 Corinthians 12:3 The natural person does not accept the things of the Spirit of God, for they are folly to him, and he is...

63 It is the Spirit who gives life; the flesh is no help at all. The words that I have spoken to you are spirit and life. 64 But there are some of you who do not believe." (For Jesus knew from the beginning who those were who did not believe, and who it was who would betray him.) 65 And he said...

There are others that also believe there must be a water baptism for salvation confusing the work of the Spirt with the hands of men. Good observation concerning: For in one Spirit we were all baptized into one body-Jews or Greeks, slaves or free-and all were made to drink of one Spirit. - 1...

This is not a topic about The Law rather about our new residency in Christ. Rest in this context is speaking about assurance and remaining. The axiom you present is not contained in the OP. Feel free to start your own thread. Thanks!

We have a thread about keeping the shabot. Please take up this discussion there.

Here your own argument style works against you. Then why are you trying to teach me? Why are you trying to "lord it over" me? Because you believe the Holy Spirit is teaching you the truth, yet from your position you should never share that truth with anyone...impractical. The Holy Spirit can...

The argument about Titus is absurd. The older teach the younger. Are you arguing the younger should be taught to flee the older's teaching and solace? How about the Hebrews passage...should young believers forsake assembly then? Part of the assembly purpose is for edifying the body, for...
