    Are there prophets today?

    The measure of a prophet’s success is the measure of faithfulness before God as God’s spokesperson, and never measured by the degree their testimony, witnessing, or speaking of God’s Word is received by others. Because they reverence and respect God’s Word, they do not shrink in the face of...

    Where does the Pope get his authority?

    You can't understand any of it because you are taught to walk in your flesh.

    The one and only Son, who is Himself God

    Romans 5:15 says “For if many died through one man’s trespass, much more have the grace of God and the free gift by the grace of that one man Jesus Christ abounded for many.” Some theologians teach that only God could pay for the sins of mankind, but the Bible specifically says that a man must...

    The one and only Son, who is Himself God

    John 8:58 At the last super, the disciples were trying to find out who would deny the Christ. They said literally, "Not I am, Lord" Matthew 26:22, 25. No one would say the disciples were trying to deny they were God because they were using the phrase "Not I am." "I am" was a common way of...

    The one and only Son, who is Himself God

    John 1:1 Jesus Christ is not a lexical definition of logos. The verse does not say "In the beginning was Jesus." The "Word" is not synonymous with Jesus, or even the "Messiah." The word logos in John 1:1 refers to God's creative self-expression... His reason, purpose and plans, especially as...

    The one and only Son, who is Himself God

    That's because the Monks were all Catholic.

    The one and only Son, who is Himself God

    There is not one verse that says Jesus is God the Son. Nor has there ever been a teaching on it anywhere in the Bible. The Jews never saw it anywhere in the entire Old Testament nor anyone in the New Testament ever taught it. The Catholics who invented this nonsense have used only about 8 verses...

    Am I the only one on the planet who understands Romans 7?

    To whom is it addressed seems to be a huge problem for you. You are always reading what is written to other people and thinking it is written to you. A belief system called Gnosticism was taking root in Christianity at the time the book of John was being written that taught there was a supreme...

    Did Jesus claim to be God?

    If Christ is the image of God, then he cannot be God because a person cannot be himself and an image of himself at the same time. Jesus can be called the “image” of God because he always did the will of God, and because he was the image of God is why he could say you had seen the Father if you...

    Where does the Pope get his authority?

    Well, let's look at your Galatians 5:19-26 19 Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, 20 Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, 21 Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings...

    Did Jesus claim to be God?

    Well, you want to believe Jesus is God so you spin it your way. I know Jesus is not God so there's no way he could have done what you say.

    Am I the only one on the planet who understands Romans 7?

    The reason I cannot lust in the flesh when following after the spirit is because it's impossible to do so since the spirit of Christ does not lust after the flesh. The difference between us is I walk in the spirit and you probably walk in your flesh if you're having lust. Victory in the...

    Where does the Pope get his authority?

    John 1:14 The "Word" is the wisdom, plan or purpose of God and the Word became flesh as Jesus Christ. Thus, Jesus Christ was the Word in the flesh, which is shortened to the Word for ease of speaking. Scripture is also the Word in writing. Everyone agrees that the Word in writing had a...

    Where does the Pope get his authority?

    I have had a number of Christians tell me about Romans 7 when I tell them I do not believe Paul taught about a "sin nature" for the Christian. Romans 7 tells us right up at the top of the chapter that Paul is talking to those who are into or know the law. And then the context of the whole...

    Where does the Pope get his authority?

    Again, your evidence is God's Word and my evidence is my opinion.

    Where does the Pope get his authority?

    The gospels are not part of the New Testament. Here maybe this will help... The Legal administration is suited only to Israel under the Law, and is sometimes called the Mosaic Law that terminated when Jesus Christ died. The Christ administration overlapped and functioned within the Law...

    Did Jesus claim to be God?

    For by him were ALL THINGS created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him: The all things are thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: All...
