Correct Jesus, God, and the personal pronoun ἡμῶν that refers to us in 1 Peter 1:1 is in the genitive case. BUT IT IS TALKING ABOUT THE RIGHTEOUSNESS BEING GOD'S AND JESUS'. The Genitive case in grammar, expresses primarily the thing from which something else proceeds, possessive in a sense. And...

No Faith and Righteousness do not need to be plural since there is only one faith and righteousness, God's. Which Jesus had through God and made available to us. As Jesus said of Himself in John 14, He (God) doeth the work. And Paul confirms in Philippians 2, It is God that works in us both to...

Titus and your interpretation was the topic of the post you replied to. Here is the post again. However, in reference to your post. I also notice that you did not bother to address the opening sentence either from the post you responded to. The premise being, Jesus had no power in and of himself.

And God was the Word. And the Word was made flesh and dwelt among us. Amen, that he be the firstborn among many brethren. Bringing many sons to glory, sons of God through God and His Spirit through Christ. The Mediator between God and Man. That we be one as they are one that the world might...

I love 2 Peter. Great letter. I see you quote from the Greek. Did you notice the use of the definite article τοῦ in reference to the God and Jesus being, the Lord. And how they are separated by the Greek conjunctive particle καὶ. Clearly by this we see that Peter did not call Jesus God but Lord...

Jesus was powerless without the Father as we all our. As Jesus said in John 14 of himself, He (God) doeth the work. I like Titus. The letter is outstanding. Chapter 1 debunks your theorem. Paul was a servant of God and an apostle of the Jesus Christ. Two different entities being spoken of here...

You are right Christ is God. Just like John 1:1 saying, "and God was the Word". And later on in the very same chapter it says, "and the Word was made flesh". But Jesus was Jesus, a man. Not God, but a man filled with God through God's Spirit.

To often to many think they can prove a text says one thing by another text, when the text states what it says all by itself. This bad exegesis a lot of times. Context and grammar within the passage in question is where answers are found, so yeah he is serious. And for the record I am not...

The issue is not understanding who we are meant to be and the how and why. Here are a few verses. Prayers and blessings that we be enlightened by Him and His Word. (John 10:32 [KJV]) Jesus answered them, Many good works have I shewed you from my Father; for which of those works do ye stone me...

Or we can read it for what it says. Keep in mind the definite article is being used throughout the text, so contextually it is speaking of "the" God not a God. And God was the word. Not, and the word was a god. And please be careful. Jesus wasn't a fan of the Scholars of His day, and neither...

There is no perfect translation of the Bible. But most will do. Including the KJV. The fact that you say in relation to yourself that a person who studied Paul will bond with what you teach instantly is a big red flag. In regards to studying the Bible there is no one box that applies to all. God...

Was God not one of three gods.

Yes Can't stand the idea of God manifested in the flesh? Can we avoid Such dramatics and putting words in one another's mouths? John 1 says the Word was God not the Word was one of three gods that are one God thee God. And John 14 states from the very testimony of Jesus, He that is in me...

Trinity? Hmmm labels.... Jesus was dependent upon the Father as we are to be. He said, Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? the words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself: but the Father that dwelleth in me, he doeth the works, For without Him I can do...

To be made in His image and likeness means we need to be in Him to exist. All exists through His image and likeness. For in Him we live, move and have our being. To step out of this means death if it were not for His grace.

He that does righteous is righteous even as He is righteous. He that sins is of the Devil. For the Devil sinned from the beginning. For this purpose was the Son of God manifested. That He destroy the works of the Devil. And We know that he was manifested to take away our sins; and in him is no...

The thing is what is being shown to you here is what the verses say when the grammar and context is considered as a whole, So regardless of any preconceived notion or idea in respect to DOCTRINE we must take the text to mean what it says. These are facts being shown to you not conjecture. He is...

In verse 23, He says he does the things mentioned before for the Gospel's sake that he might be a partaker, a sharer, a co-participant with them. In speaking about being a co-participate he begins to parallel it with running a race in vs.24 Then in vs. 25 he says run all, give it everything you...

Yes verse 23, He says he does the things mentioned before for the Gospel's sake that he might be a partaker, a sharer, a co-participant with them. In speaking about being a co-participate he begins to parallel it with running a race in vs.24 Then in vs. 25 he says run all, give it everything...
