@Taken, What do you think it means that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh, if it does not mean that He came to earth as a Human Being to dwell among us? It is my understanding of the Christian faith that to deny the Humanity of Christ is heresy, along the lines of what the gnostics believed.

Look carefully at what I said and how I said it. I did not say that any "sperm of God" was involved in the conception of our Lord. Also, a conception always has to do with an egg and a seed for that egg. That it was a conception is clear from Isaiah 7:14. That the seed of the woman was...

@Taken... Do you see in the top left corner how it says, justbyfaith said? All you have to do is pay attention to this in order to know who I am talking to in any given situation. In one of the situations above I was not even talking to you but to @Dave L. But if the shoe fits, then of...

We are created in the womb when the sperm unites with an egg and the union of them both is called a zygote. The zygote then begins to multiply into what eventually becomes a fully-developed human baby. This is the process by which the Lord creates each and every one of us when we are formed in...

Really? So it wasn't Christ who was speaking there? Give your biblical strong reasons why you believe that this passage in Hebrews is not speaking of Christ.

Jhn 1:11, He came unto his own, and his own received him not. Jhn 1:12, But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: Jhn 1:13, Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God...

Heading off to church, and will be back in a little while.

#1, the Holy Spirit is not Christ's creator in the womb. He took on an added human nature in the conception of Christ and became the Son of God and the Son of man. Secondly, if you are going to charge me with pantheism, I think you had better bring forth your strong logical reasons as to why...

You can keep lying about what I believe in, but just remember that you will be held accountable by Revelation 21:8. Jesus, In His Deity, was not created in the womb by the Holy Spirit. He was the Holy Spirit (even the Father) before He took on an added nature of human flesh. Also, did I not...

Certainly (in context) those who are born of God are not born of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, but of God. Jesus also, in that Mary was overshadowed by the Holy Ghost and that Jesus who was conceived in her womb is both the Son of God and the Son of man.

@Taken, You may have to read between the lines of Luke 1:35 and Matthew 1:18-20 to come up with the true concept that the Holy Ghost became one with the egg in the womb of the virgin Mary; but is is a biblical doctrine. Maybe jump over to Genesis 3:15 and/or Isaiah 7:14 to gain added insight.

If that is the case, then scripture denies that Jesus is God, for it says plainly that Jesus was "made of the seed of David according to the flesh" (Romans 1:3) and that the LORD has a Maker (Isaiah 45:11). But I don't think that the scripture does deny that Jesus is God; and neither am I...

I agree. Scripture? I think that the prophets of old, for the most part, did not minister to their contemporaries, but wrote down their prophecies knowing that they would be ministering to us who would live many years after them. 1Pe 1:10, Of which salvation the prophets have enquired and...

Zep 1:14, The great day of the LORD is near, it is near, and hasteth greatly, even the voice of the day of the LORD: the mighty man shall cry there bitterly. Zep 1:15, That day is a day of wrath, a day of trouble and distress, a day of wasteness and desolation, a day of darkness and gloominess...

It is not so much about any kind of veneration of Paul; but rather it is about whether you hold it to be true that all scripture is given by inspiration of God. 2 Timothy 3:16.

How do you figure? The doctrine of the rapture is scriptural... 1Th 4:13, But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope. 1Th 4:14, For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also...

I would say however, that if a Christian has been given a revelation of a more concrete understanding of what the Trinity is all about, so that he is no longer in the dark about the nuances of who God is within the doctrine, that it no longer needs to be merely "accepted by faith" but that it...

What makes a person right is whether they have an unction from the Holy One or not. 1Jo 2:20, But ye have an unction from the Holy One, and ye know all things.

A Christian is someone who believes in the gospel as it is given to us in 1 Corinthians 15:1-4: 1Co 15:1, Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; 1Co 15:2, By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory...

1 and 2 Timothy were written by Paul...they were written to Timothy.
