    Adam / Christ….

    RE-CREATION To his apostles Jesus spoke of a “re-creation” and associated it with the time “when the Son of man sits down upon his glorious throne.” (Matthew 19:28; Luke 22:28-30) The Greek word translated “re-creation” is "palingenesia", which is composed of elements that mean “again; anew...

    When Jesus said, “there is none good but one, that is, God.” did He mean nobody could be good?

    I know you truly believe yourself confident in what you you believe to be true. You think the rest of us are not just as confident as you are? I know that the scriptures tell me that there will be people in this world that we're living in who will confidently believe themselves to be Christians...

    When Jesus said, “there is none good but one, that is, God.” did He mean nobody could be good?

    Bible Highlighter said, No, no. Read John 1:1 again. It says the Word WAS God. The Word was WITH God.[/QUOTE\] What is first said at John 1:1 is, "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God." Then in many Bibles, the second part of John 1:1 it's translated, "and the Word was...

    When Jesus said, “there is none good but one, that is, God.” did He mean nobody could be good?

    Their is no Godhead that you speak of in the scriptures, no trinity, and when you speak about the word god be accurate about it. The scriptures say that there are many that are called God's in heaven and on earth but we know there is only one true God, he is the Father and God of Jesus, his name...

    When Jesus said, “there is none good but one, that is, God.” did He mean nobody could be good?

    Yeah I understand that you believe Jesus to be a liar when he said at John 20:17 that he had a Father and God that was his apostles and disciples Father and God. Thomas knew what Jesus said at John 20:17 so Thomas wasn't calling Jesus a liar when he stated to Jesus at John 20:28 "My lord and My...

    In our image..

    We know that God Isn't begotten, the word begotten means, to produce, to bring into existence. Humans produce by procreation God produces or brings into existence by creating. The angels are spirit beings and God begot them by creating each one into existence. We also know that no one produced...

    do you belive in psalm 139:16

    The psalmist David wrote: “O Jehovah, you have searched through me, and you know me.” (Psalm 139:1) David was confident that YHWH God knowledge of him was not superficial. God did not see David as humans might, noting only his physical stature, his speaking ability, or his skill in playing the...

    In our image..

    It reasonable to me that humans were created in God’s image, with the ability to cultivate and manifest qualities that God possesses, such as love, empathy, and justice. That explains why humans can actually imitate God’s personality. When scripture says let us make man in our image the True...

    When Jesus said, “there is none good but one, that is, God.” did He mean nobody could be good?

    When Jesus asked, why do you call me good?” Jesus replies. “Nobody is good except one, God.” Likely the young man used “good” as a formalistic title, which is what the rabbis do. Although Jesus is good at teaching, he lets the man know that as a title, “Good” belongs only to God. Jesus...

    Live Forever?

    They announce that we would receive it in November. I've checked jw.org to make sure I hadn't received it early but I know I'll receive it in November.

    Live Forever?

    Well actually I don't think I can honestly say I understand the experience of actually being one of those that are chosen to be kings, priests, and judges with Jesus in that heavenly Messianic Kingdom. I can understand what the scriptures say about it, but since I'm not one of those chosen I...

    What Are we Getting Saved From?

    I'm sorry but it sounded to me that what you were saying at post #683 was that the kind of evil, meaning rebellion, had to exist in order for good to exist, so that their would be balance. It sounded to me like you were saying a rebellious angel, that kind of evil, had to exist for good to...

    What Are we Getting Saved From?

    You're avoiding reasoning on Genesis 2:7 and saying what this scripture is teaching us.

    What Are we Getting Saved From?

    You didn't tell me what the scripture at Genesis 2:7 is saying.

    What Are we Getting Saved From?

    let's see who truly believes scripture. You tell me what Genesis 2:7 is saying. I don't mean quote scripture, anybody can quote scripture. Tell me what Genesis 2:7 is saying. Reason on the scriptures as the scriptures themselves tell you to do. What is Genesis 2:7 saying.

    What Are we Getting Saved From?

    I know you believe that, but like I said Genesis 2:7 is clear. You can huff and puff all you want but Genesis 2:7 isn't saying God gave man a soul. Genesis 2:7 says that man is a soul. That means that the doctrine of immortality of the soul, and the Hellfire doctrine are false. People saying...

    What Are we Getting Saved From?

    I don't, twist YHWH God word, I agree with it, but you believe what you want. I however know that YHWH God shows us clearly that when the breath of life(spirit) leaves the flesh and blood human body, human beings cease to exist as living souls or living persons. You have been deceived by Satan...

    What Are we Getting Saved From?

    When have I denied that I'm a Jehovah's Witness?

    What Are we Getting Saved From?

    YHWH God is the only true God, he's the Father and God of Jesus. His word is truth.
