    Did Jesus claim to be God?

    It seems it would have been clearly stated in the Bible and in the earliest Christian creeds if the doctrine of the Trinity was genuine and central to Christian belief and especially if belief in it was necessary for salvation as many Trinitarians teach. God gave the Scriptures to the Jewish...

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

    You say if I don't believe your take then I don't understand. Or if I don't respond to your view then you say I don't understand Romans 7. I disagree with you. Paul is talking about the Jewish Law throughout the entire chapter mentioning a few times how it's different from the Christians. I...

    Did Jesus claim to be God?

    And yet people all over the world call this "I and my Father are one" strong evidence.

    Did Jesus claim to be God?

    There has never 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 that they have to piece together from statements that are...

    Did Jesus claim to be God?

    John 10:30 There is no reason to take this verse to mean that Christ was saying that he and the Father make up "one God." The phrase was a common one, and even today if someone used it, people would know exactly what they meant... he and his Father are very much alike. When Paul wrote to the...

    Did Jesus claim to be God?

    Deity you say. I never found that word in Scripture. Trinity neither. 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...

    Did Jesus claim to be God?

    I like your post. Even more so if you spell it Epistles. We will leave the spelling of Begotten for another day.

    Did Jesus claim to be God?

    Do you have a verse that says the Messiah is a divine being?

    Did Jesus claim to be God?

    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 they are...

    Did Jesus claim to be God?

    There is no strong evidence. Not even weak evidence that Jesus is God. Only if you twist the Scripture and pull the verses out of context can you come up with this kind of nonsense.

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

    We are taught "to be in the spirit" means to walk upright in our flesh or to have our flesh in fellowship with God. So we read right over the many verses such as Peter and John were filled with the spirit. Or "that we might be made the righteousness of God in him" 2 Corinthians 5:21. Romans...

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

    How do we establish the Law? Here's a couple of verses from that same chapter that are not taken out of context... 20 Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified in his sight: for by the law is the knowledge of sin. 21 But now the righteousness of God without the law...

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

    I gave you my take on Romans 7. You can call it analogy or anything else that you want to see there. I don't see a comparison between things that have similar features. I only see the spirit of Christ. Paul put it this way... I live by the faith of the Son of God... If Paul in Galatians 2:20...

    The Gospel and the Spirit of Anti-Christ.

    King James Version... Romans 6 How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein? our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin. For he that is dead is freed from sin. he died unto sin once: but in that he...

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

    O wretched man that I am! who shall deliver me from the body of this death? The next verse will... I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord. So then with the mind I myself serve the law of God; but with the flesh the law of sin. I serve God in the renewed mind. Victory in the Christian life...

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

    He came to fulfill the Law to Israel. Not to the Christian. What is written directly to the Jews, belongs to and is for the Jews. What is written directly to the Gentiles, belongs to and is for the Gentiles. What is written directly to the Church of God, belongs to and is for the Church of God...

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

    There is nothing I can't explain about the New Testament. Paul did all this self talk while he was thinking of himself under the Law before he received the spirit of Christ. Because after he became a Christian he had no sin within him that God could see... Colossians 2:14 Blotting out the...

    Romans 7: Sin and the Christian

    And he Paul did all this self talk while he was thinking of himself under the Law before he received the spirit of Christ. Because after he became a Christian he had no sin within him that God could see... Colossians 2:14 Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was...
