    Does John 1:1 say Jesus is God

    Now back to you. You want to talk about John 1:1. So I'm posting stuff about John 1:1. Behold... With all the definitions and ways logos can be translated, how can we decide which meaning of logos to choose for any one verse? How can it be determined what the logos in John 1:1 is? Any...

    Do We Still Have A Sin Nature...

    I see the "sin nature" as something that existed before Jesus Christ destroyed it when the spirit of Christ came within the believer. This spirit is indeed a life form that is in all Christians and it seems to me one cannot understand and therefore function or be in the spirit if our old nature...

    What benefit does it produce to make Jesus God

    It's imperative that the serious student of the Bible come to a basic understanding of logos, which is translated as "Word" in John 1:1. Most Trinitarians believe that the word logos refers directly to Jesus Christ, so in most versions of John logos is capitalized and translated "Word" (some...

    Does John 1:1 say Jesus is God

    Jesus never taught the Trinity even when he had good opportunities to do so, and we see this when Jesus met the Samaritan woman at the well (John 4:1-42) and told her he was the Messiah, but nothing more. Jesus did not take the opportunity to teach the Trinity when he asked the Apostles who they...

    What benefit does it produce to make Jesus God

    My Bible says they (the devils) killed him. I do hope you know who the prices of this world are... 1 Corinthians 2:8 Which none of the princes of this world knew: for had they known it, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory.

    What benefit does it produce to make Jesus God

    The devils knew he was the son of God. But they did not know what Jesus was going to accomplished and if they knew they would have never killed him. Do you want the verse on that?

    Does John 1:1 say Jesus is God

    Philippians 2:11 And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. The title "Lord" (Greek, Kurious) as Kittel's observes, means "one who has full authority." (7) In the Old Testament, God alone had "full authority" and filled both functions of...

    Is the holy spirit a living being Equal to God?

    God gave the Scriptures to the Jewish people, and the Jewish religion and worship that comes from that revelation does not contain any reference to or teachings about a triune God.
