    What benefit does it produce to make Jesus God

    If Jesus were God. Then the Scriptures would come right out and say it and there would be loads of reasons why. There would be no guessing about words and logos and wondering for 400 years before the Catholics introduced it.

    Who Created or Made a Sin Nature?

    Years ago I told my Catholic friend that if I don't have the spirit of God. Then nobody does.

    Who Created or Made a Sin Nature?

    I believe it was some good person who wrote me yesterday saying that I was talking to a JW and I believe they were referring to you. They went on to say that folks like you do not believe in the holy spirit.

    It's the first one right now on the same first page that this thread is on. This may be the link... What does Colossians 1:16 mean when it says "For by him were all things created..."

    They are not real Christians if they do not have the spirit of Christ.

    What does Colossians 1:16 mean when it says "For by him were all things created..."

    I I have a thread on this John 1 that should be on the same first page as this post is. John 1 is talking about the logos and that is not Jesus.

    I have a thread on Colossians 1:16. It should be easy to find on this forum just halfway down the same page this post is on.

    What benefit does it produce to make Jesus God

    One of the ways we know that “pneuma hagion” often refers to the gift of God’s nature is that it “belongs” to God, who calls it “my” spirit. The spirit is called “God’s” spirit in many verses and King David understood the holy spirit belonged to God because he wrote “…do not take your holy...

    What benefit does it produce to make Jesus God

    I call the comforter a he because I think in terms of Christ being in fellowship with me. But it's not Christ inside of me. It's what the Bible calls the spirit of Christ or the spirit of God. It's called either spirit of Christ or spirit of God because it's God in Christ in me. And that spirit...

    Who Created or Made a Sin Nature?

    But I can mention the spirit of truth since you brought it up... Almost every English version translates John 14:17 similarly to “even the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees him nor knows him.” Translators capitalize “Spirit” and use “he” and “him” because...

    What benefit does it produce to make Jesus God

    Almost every English version translates John 14:17 similarly to “even the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees him nor knows him.” Translators capitalize “Spirit” and use “he” and “him” because of their theology. The Greek word “spirit” is neuter and the text...

    Who Created or Made a Sin Nature?

    No errors from me on this subject since I'm an expert on this subject. I don't believe I said anything about the spirit of truth. And all Christians have the spirit of God.

    What benefit does it produce to make Jesus God

    The "Holy Spirit” as an independent “Person” cannot be found in the Old Testament. The Jews to whom the Old Testament was given did not recognize any such being. It's a well-known historical fact that “Hear, O Israel! Yahweh is our God, Yahweh alone,” was the cry of Israel. No verse or context...

    Who Created or Made a Sin Nature?

    God put the holy spirit upon Jesus immediately after he was baptized by John the Baptist because Jesus himself needed God’s gift of the holy spirit to have supernatural power just as the leaders and prophets of the Old Testament did. This fulfilled the Old Testament prophecies that God would put...

    Who Created or Made a Sin Nature?

    I never said God put Himself in anybody. I said he gives His spirit to men and has all through out history.

    Who Created or Made a Sin Nature?

    Just keep in mind... 1 John 3 & 5 Whosoever abideth in him sinneth not: whosoever sinneth hath not seen him, neither known him. Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin, for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God. We know that whosoever is born of God...

    2 Corinthians 5:21 ...that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.

    What benefit does it produce to make Jesus God

    Are my lungs filled with air? Where in the Bible does it say there is air? There must be a reason why God had to come and be a man.

    You ask... Provide a quote that demonstrated man was given "divine essence" From the New Testament or the Old?
