Well you are onto somthing there. However, it's been 2,000 years since the events in Matthew and Mark. Since Satan was bound for 1,000 years (Rev 20:3), that would mean he was released in the 11th century. So between the 1st and 11th century Satan was bound? What changed during those thousand...

In some sense you may be right about that. But I don't see any reason to spiritualize the millennial kingdom in Rev 20. From reading Isaiah and other prophets it would appear that the kingdom will be a very real, concrete kingdom. There will be real people who will build houses, plant gardens...

Don't you think the millennial kingdom comes after Satan is bound? Rev 20:1-3, 1 And I saw an angel come down from heaven, having the key of the bottomless pit and a great chain in his hand. 2 And he laid hold on the dragon, that old serpent, which is the Devil, and Satan, and bound him a...

I'm sure ready for Jesus to come back. It'd be nice if you are right about that. You got me to thinking and I remember reading this: Rev 9:18, By these three was the third part of men killed, by the fire, and by the smoke, and by the brimstone, which issued out of their mouths. It says only...

Rev 20:7-9, 7 And when the thousand years are expired, Satan shall be loosed out of his prison, 8 And shall go out to deceive the nations which are in the four quarters of the earth, Gog and Magog, to gather them together to battle: the number of whom [is] as the sand of the sea. 9 And they...

Scripture? :) Why do you ask?

I looked through the whole thread and was surprised not to see a few verses from Romans, Corinthians, and Thessalonians that are very relevant to the discussion. It should be noted that these three books are specifically written to born again Christians. Paul is explaining what will happen to...

You're right about that. Got you mixed up with someone else. But I did say this to you for sure: "Honestly, I don't know what more to say to you about this. Maybe some other subject, some other time." Instead of accepting my desire to graciously end this conversation, you use those words in a...

Yes, it is better to handle a couple of verses at a time. Good idea! :) That Greek word is also used in a couple of verses where one man "worships" another man. Matt 18:26, The servant therefore fell down, and worshiped him, saying, Lord, have patience with me, and I will pay thee all. Rev...

I guess you missed my post asking for explainations of the many verses I gave you instead of just throwing more verses at me?

As opposed to several "hard quotes" that say Jesus is a man as well as a "hard quote" that says God is not a man? That doesn't mean anything to you? Honestly, I don't know what more to say to you about this. Maybe some other subject, some other time.

Sorry for the confusion. The baseless accusation I referred to was, "No, YOU are wrong." No. I just study the Bible. Do a study on what "worship" means in the Bible. You need to look at the Greek word. If you do that, you will find several examples of one man "worshiping" another man. Do...

So Jesus is "God the Father" who, as per 1 Cor 8:6, is the only true God? And no explanation for how God will be subject to God? Maybe come up with something of substance instead of baseless accusations.

If Philippians said: "Who, being God, thought it not robbery to be God:" you would have something onto which you could grasp. But it doesn't say that. It it actually says, "Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God:" Maybe we could see what it means to be in the...

Thus making the following verses wrong: 1 Cor 8:6, But to us [there is but] one God, the Father, of whom [are] all things, and we in him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom [are] all things, and we by him. John 17:3, And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God...

Since you really can't can't come up with any scripture that clearly say Jesus is God, nor can you explain all the clear verses that make such an assertion quite impossible (and I've only given you a fraction of such verses), I think the only reason you keep saying Jesus is God is because you...

But no actual verses for me? Need I remind you yet again that Jesus is expressly called a man some 6 times? That hieis not once is he expressly called God? That God is expressly said to not be a man? So where does it say both were god-men? Please, just one declaration as those I've given you...

If you're referring to Philippians, notice it says we should think and be the same way (Phil 2:5). Trinitarians yank verse 6 totally out of context so as to "prove" a preconceived idea.

Do you realize I merely quoted a verse. And you want to argue? Well, since I didn't write the verse, find out who did and take up with him.

No. Most scholarly trinitarians would say that there is no clear cut decleartions of the trinity (the actual word, nor any of the other words used to describe it are MIA for starters) in the scriptures. Mostly because there isn't. But they claim the trinity can be "derived" from the scriptures...
