And you believe the error of the Jews rather than believing Jesus? Believe Jesus' reply! 34) Jesus answered them, “Isn’t it written in your law, ‘I said, you are gods?’ 35) If he called them gods, to whom the word of God came (and the Scripture can’t be broken), 36) do you say of him whom...

What make you say that it's not the same beginning? "Eternity past" is not a beginning. What is this beginning referring to if not the beginning of God's creation? The copy of the Diaglott that I have (1865, downloaded from onlinebible.net) reads, "In a beginning was the Word, and the Word...

I have never written a Bible translation. The translations that I have copies of do have John the Baptist saying the opposite of that. What's your point?

Romans 8:3 (WEB): For what the law couldn’t do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God did, sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh and for sin, he condemned sin in the flesh; The human body that God gave Jesus was in the "likeness" of sinful flesh, but it was not sinful flesh...

Err, I think that reference should be verse 18: (1Pe 3:8) Finally, be all like-minded, compassionate, loving as brothers, tender hearted, courteous, (1Pe 3:18) Because Christ also suffered for sins once, the righteous for the unrighteous, that he might bring you to God; being put to death in...

1769: "and the Word was God" - KJV Written by believers in the Trinity. Biased translation.

It does not say in Philipians 2 that Jesus was "from eternity" in the form of God. John 1:1 says he was in the form of God "in the beginning", which is not from eternity - it is the beginning of God's creation. The angel is refering to God (Yahweh, our Father). This is now Jesus speaking...

Unfallen.

That is a misquote, or deliberate falsifying of Scripture (I'd prefer to assume it was a mistake). You didn't give a Bible reference, so I'll do it for you: John 1:18 (WEB): No one has seen God at any time. The one and only Son, who is in the bosom of the Father, he has declared him. It does...

John 14:23) Jesus answered him, “If a man loves me, he will keep my word. My Father will love him, and we will come to him, and make our home with him. John 14:20) In that day you will know that I am in my Father, and you in me, and I in you. Colossians 1:27) to whom God was pleased to make...

Heb 5 (WEB): 1) For every high priest, being taken from among men, is appointed for men in things pertaining to God, that he may offer both gifts and sacrifices for sins. 2) The high priest can deal gently with those who are ignorant and going astray, because he himself is also surrounded with...

John 20:17 - Jesus said to her, “Don’t hold me, for I haven’t yet ascended to my Father; but go to my brothers, and tell them, ‘I am ascending to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God.’” Yep, still there! And here's me thinking that "All scripture is given by inspiration of God...

Similar logic - of course Jesus isn't God because he said "my Father" and "my God", and "my Father is greater than I", and "the Father hath sent me", etc.. This has been covered before (e.g. four replies ago - #757). That is a badly translated verse which gives the opposite meaning to what it...

This is a Bible study forum where people can discuss the Bible, with the aim of sharing their understanding of the Bible and of learning new things from the Bible, so that we may all grow in our knowledge and understanding of God's word to us. If you start dsallowing people to share their...

If you expecting to read a verse that simply says "Jesus is not God", then you won't find it. It also doesn't say "Paul is not God", "Isaiah is not God", etc.. You have to use common sense and logic, or as God puts it, "“Come now, and let’s reason together,” says Yahweh" (Isaiah 1:18). Yes...

No he didn't (I won't bother explaining it again!). Note Paul said: 1 Corinthians 15:10 (KJV): But by the grace of God I am what I am: Do you think Paul was claiming to be God (Yehovah/Yahweh) too? Jesus is never referred to as Jesus Jehovah in the Bible! Yes, Jesus, since his...

I don't deny that Jesus has the divine nature (since his resurrection), but if you want an example of Jesus lying, how about: John 11:11 (WEB): he said to them, “Our friend, Lazarus, has fallen asleep, but I am going so that I may awake him out of sleep.” I'm sure kcnalp would say that was a...

1 John 3:2 (WEB): "Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is." So that is saying that Christians will, after their resurrection, share the same spiritual nature...

It was something that no descendant of Adam and Eve could do, because everyone had inherited their corrupted sinful nature. That is whay Jesus was born of a virgin, with God supplying the uncorrupted DNA. This is why God said in Genesis 3:15, "And I will put enmity between thee and the woman...

You'll have to ask the Jehovah's Witnesses if they say that; I can't confirm it because I am not a member of the Jehovah's Witnesses. But, "Jesus came to them and spoke to them, saying, “All authority has been given to me in heaven and on earth”", (Matthew 28:18), in which case I'm sure many...
