We cant expose error where there is no perceived error, this has been the theological battle raging since before the Nicene Creed was established. Arius still went on, even Constantines best efforts had little impact and he imposed death penalties on anyone still harbouring any shred of his...

In order for me to have come up with my conclusions, of course I had to wonder if it was conceivable, im not mindless bud. :) But look at just about anything Christ said and then try and imagine that he meant something slightly different, is it conceivable? Of course, the translation can be...

Thanks bud, I love the things you say, you have a very special gift of affirmation may you never be disheartened but always blessed and a blessing to others as you were with me today. amen Thank you for the question Honestly mate I think it stems from my young teen days when my Mother used to...

Nice brother, amen to that.

Sorry of course your right, Hell is not in the Old Testament. I was meaning Gehenna and referring to its overflow in to New Testament teachings.

Now I love Jesus, I repent, I feel a hunger a desire to study and learn and grow the likes of which I have never experienced before. So why this fear, I have never done a lot of research into the subject, well not to any major extent, I know the origins of hell (Gehenna) from the Old...

Well you started this thread on the 3rd of April where you promised to turn everyone on their heads. Here it is the 26th of May and only one reply made the same day. The irony is the funniest part.

Im sorry but I don’t see how "I am he" does anything to credit Jhn8:56 with the sheer outrage they experience in Jhn8:57. It seems to do very little in clarifying his divinity, the question would still come "He who?" I fail to see why the questioning would stop there in outrage. It would prompt...

I think the relevance of age is in relation to his being persecuted and despised this was foretold in Scriptures like Isaiah 50:6, 53:7 and Psalm 68:5. in relation to the mum and dad comment it falls along side the same rejections and into the well known prophet without honour categories. he...

Yeah sorry bud, I was gonna post but I didnt want to make my earlier mistakes of not reading your guys posts properly, I work nights so im half asleep most the time. Thanks for asking though bro :) In reply to the 50 years of age conundrum "No inference can be drawn from this as to the age...

Oh sorry bro I just got up, I was still thinking about the last conversation I was having with nothead. My apologies :wacko:

εἶπεν αὐτοῖς Ἰησοῦς ἀμὴν ἀμὴν λέγω ὑμῖν πρὶν Ἀβραὰμ I said, to, for, Jesus truly truly I say to, for you before, Abraham I spoke by with them...

Thanks Bruv, But I already understand how to translate Greek into english. I did the course and I have my copy of Dobsons :D

LoL i can see it now They say to Jesus "'Thou art not yet fifty years old, and Abraham hast thou seen? Jesus replies 'Verily, verily, I say to you, Before Abraham's coming .....I am.....He;' The jews are so upset and they go to tear their clothes, but then they stop, and look at each other a...

The "ego" in "ego eimi" is the emphasis "I". the "ego" refers to himself specifically. In the context of the conversation that's going on at the time it is only natural that the translator will use the most common rendering of the greek to create a smooth translation. In the context and in...

Exodus 3:14 God said to Moses, "I AM WHO I AM. This is what you are to say to the Israelites: 'I AM has sent me to you.'" Isaiah 42:8 "I am the LORD; that is my name! I will not yield my glory to another or my praise to idols. John 8:58 "Very truly I tell you," Jesus answered, "before Abraham...
