    Did the disciples know that Jesus was God before his resurrection?

    This, too, is inaccurate…. Please read their prayer at Acts 4:24-30… Jesus wasn't the “Sovereign Lord”…. Jesus was God’s “holy servant”. I didn’t say it, they did.

    Did Jesus claim to be God?

    (“Robbery” is from the KJV) This statement contradicts itself. “Robbery” indicates nothing to “be held on to”; rather, it indicates something “grabbed” or “seized”. And that, is what the Greek word ‘harpagmon’, employed at Philippians 2:6, rendered “robbery” in the KJV, means…. “something to...

    Did Jesus claim to be God?

    Yes you are right. Why is the indefinite article “a” added? Because the Koine Greek language has no indefinite articles (“a” or “an”). They have to be added in English, for us to understand the text. Take John 6:70 in the ASV…”Jesus answered them, Did not I choose you the twelve, and one of you...

    Did Jesus claim to be God?

    When Jesus said His followers must be “*not of* / *no part of* this world” (John 15:19), what do you think? Would it be ok to support one side over another side when one country fights another? What actually could be more…. worldly ….than getting involved in killing other people? Now, ask...

    Did Jesus claim to be God?

    If they knew that… then why didn’t they accuse him of saying that at his Sanhedrin trial? That trial was recorded in all 4 Gospels, but none say that Jesus was accused of implying he was God! This proves the “I AM = God” interpretation is erroneous. Ego eimi implies existence, nothing more. So...

    Did Jesus claim to be God?

    Lol. Excellent! You have a great way with words. You remind me of a couple sisters in our congregation… they have a great teaching ability, getting the point across. I’d love to hear one of your demonstrations at our meeting! Now don’t get the BigHead… stay humble. lol. PS: If I make it to...

    Is the "eternal fire" of Sodom still burning? - Nope

    No, that’s what dogma teaches…. not the Bible.

    If you think that Noah's flood was global, then bet on it

    Thanks, I read the Wikipedia article, but really, you can’t rely on science to answer some questions….modern scientific organizations are too wedded to naturalism to accept the supernatural as a cause for anything. It wasn’t always that way — Newton, Kepler, Boyle, et. al., had no issue...

    If you think that Noah's flood was global, then bet on it

    First of all, who’s covering my bet? You? I’ve got $3M. Exactly how, and from whom, do I collect my $30M when I win? From you? I see you’ve posted a lot of ’bets.’

    If you think that Noah's flood was global, then bet on it

    P1. From 0 to 10, a 10. But how do you “scientifically measure” an event that is specifically stated as a Divine occurrence? Does not the Genesis account say that God was behind it, thus it was a miracle? Miracles suspend the laws of Physics; therefore, science can’t measure the parts that were...

    Was Noah's flood global?

    Yes, a global Food. If it had been local, would Noah & his family have been in the Ark for a year? The waters would have drained off, if it were local. Also, if it were local, Noah & his fam could have just moved to another area. Here is a thread from another website...

    Which denomination do I belong to?

    Hey, I’ve enjoyed reading your posts… About getting a “second chance”: Keep in mind, God’s greatest quality, love. He knows just how much of an influence Satan has had / is having on this world! So does Jesus. The price paid to redeem mankind — the life of God’s own firstborn Son Jesus — was...

    The Garden

    Yes, I agree. When this happens, then most of the time, Occam’s Razor will usually apply. The basic teachings / tenets of God’s Word, when He reveals them (no one else can, Luke 10:21), really are simple & easy to understand.

    Born Again or Christian? Is there a difference and what is your biblical support ?

    I’m not sure what you mean by “ “saved” in Christ’s future Kingdom” … if you mean ‘being part of it’, then I’d agree. But I have not been chosen to be ‘part’ of it as a king. I hope to be with the “meek / mild-tempered” group who will live on Earth (Matthew 5:5), under Christ’s - and his...

    Born Again or Christian? Is there a difference and what is your biblical support ?

    “Christian” means “follower of Christ”. It’s really about obeying His commands (John 15:10,14), and ‘following his steps closely.’ (1 Peter 1:21) Jesus said many would claim to be, but they wouldn’t be genuine. — Matthew 7:21-23 Now, being “born again” is a special designation. Those who are...

    What a great mindset! You will be ok… Ezekiel 18:4…God says, “Look! All the souls, TO ME they belong”! When it comes, you will R.I.P.

    ♪♫Merry Christmas Christianity Board Family! Happy Birthday Jesus! 2023

    Interesting information…. But unfortunately, most people don’t care. Many will rant & rave against false teachings, but when it comes to the origins of their celebrations, most of them are willing to overlook such unholy things.

    What Old Covenant Laws are the New Covenant believer to obey?

    First of all, let’s keep in mind Jesus’ own words @ Matthew 5:17… “Do not think I came to destroy the Law or the Prophets. I came, not to destroy, but to fulfill.” Of the 5 choices you posted, the one where love is required. Romans 13:9,10…. For the law code, “You must not commit adultery...
