When will you ever get it that John 1:18 (ESV) is true: 'No one has ever seen God...', and your interpretation is wrong. The fact of the matter is that when it speaks of God's face, hand and back in relation to Moses, it is a theophany, using anthropomorphic language, i.e. 'The attribution of...

Actually, your view of God having a body does not come from the Scriptures, no matter how much you protest. It is a view of God that the Mormons promote, a view that originated with the Mormon's founder, Joseph Smith (Doctrine and Covenants 130:22). What the Mormons got wrong in their doctrine...

Yes, I have at #526. This is a false charge. I've also done it at #549 and #550.

I AM NOT accusing you of belonging to the Mormon cult. I asked you in another post if you were a Mormon or a Mormon sympathiser and you denied that. I accept this as an honest statement from you. However, your view that God has a body is an unorthodox view of God that synchronises with the...

I have not replied to the texts you posted in #511 for a couple of reasons: 1. As I've already demonstrated to you, you use a circular reasoning (question begging) logical fallacy. You start with your definition that God has a body and you set out to 'prove' he has a body with cherry picking...

I DO understand what John 4:24 states: 'God is spirit'. It is speaking about God's essence. He is completely spiritual - spirit! Ho theos (the God) is not a deity of stone, tree, or mountain where he has to be worshipped on a mountain like Mt Gerizim. Ho theos is the one and only true God and...

There's a simple method for you to report me or any person to moderators. It's the 'report' function at the bottom left of the screen. Report me and the report goes to moderators. What is it that you want to report about my post? Oz

If being orthodox in theology is meaningless to you, then you are promoting unorthodox theology, which you are with your requirement for God having a physical body. That is a Mormon view of God. I've demonstrated that to you. No matter how much you try to demonstrate that God has a body, you...

I agree with teaching about baptism, but not your version. A person is cleansed by God (Acts 15:9) when he/she bows in repentance and faith (2 Tim 2:25) to Christ alone for salvation (Acts 4:12). He/she then is ushered into the body of Christ (Col 1:21-23) and receives the Holy Spirit (Eph...

When was that and how did it happen? We know that it was not God you saw because this is what the Scriptures declare: 'No one has ever seen God, but the one and only Son, who is himself God and is in closest relationship with the Father, has made him known' (John 1:18 NIV). Jesus has made God...

From where did you obtain the definition of sin as 'aberration of desire'? That is not God's view according to 1 John 3:4, 'Everyone who makes a practice of sinning also practices lawlessness; sin is lawlessness'. God's view is that to sin is to break God's law. Sin is lawlessness and applies...

So do you see God face to face?

A view is being promoted on this forum by ewq1938 that God has a body. This document from a Mormon Handbook demonstrates the contrast between the Bible's teaching and that of Mormonism. 'God has a body' is Mormon false theology. That God has a body was taught by Mormon founder, Joseph Smith...

The Father has a body is well documented in Mormon theology. See 'The Nature of God / Corporeality of God', a Mormon promotional piece of literature. You are promoting a view of God that is way outside of orthodox Christianity and you should know that. Why are you promoting on this evangelical...

We CANNOT see God the Father, face to face. Oz

Your position is outside that of orthodox Christianity. What is your theological persuasion? From where do you gain these unorthodox views of the nature of God? You are promoting a Mormon view of God having a body of flesh and bones. See HERE. Your doctrine of God conforms with that of...

This is a creation out of your own mind. It is a self-fulfilling prophecy. It is a question begging logical fallacy. How does this fallacy work? This is how ewq uses the question begging fallacy: ewq: A person is composed of three things: body, soul, and spirit. Oz: How do I know that is...

This is what happens when you don't do your exegesis and exposition of a text such as Exodus 24:11. Gleason Archer has a sound explanation of the biblical position on these verses: We know that this Exodus 24:9-11 experience was not seeing God face to face. How do we know? Exodus 33:20 (ESV)...

It was nothing more than your rave that proved not a thing. It was creation out of nothing. You invented your interpretation of Scriptures. I don't fall into that kind of trap. If you invent like that again, I'll not bother with responding. You had no preconceived beliefs to defend??? What a joke!

ewq, Ever heard of creation out of nothing? That's exactly what you have done with your inventions in this post. You have distorted the meaning of imago dei (image of God) and you want me to think you know what you are talking about. Forget it! Bye, bye. Oz
