    What do you think about gender equality in Christianity?

    Well assuming I equate holy with unholy is not a clarification but an accusation! But I await your definition of equal and equality and why women have NO equality anywhere or in anything with men Telling me what you believe equal and equality mean should not be this hard for you to do.

    Biblical Support v Explicit Biblical Teaching

    Your error here is that doctrine is established by many many verses both explicit and implied. John 1:1 is an example. Yes thte verse does not tell us who the Word is. So if this was the only passage about this word then it is subject to debate! But we have this passage which makes this an...

    The Absolute Equality of Jesus With The Father

    As for inequality of position and exaltation? I agree! The Father is above all as Scripture declares. but as to their divinity? they are both equally divine or deity! The Father is not more God than the Son. As I showed in another thread: 1 Cor. 15: 24 Then cometh the end, when he shall...

    The Absolute Equality of Jesus With The Father

    Yhwh has been around a long long time-- Yahweh or Jehoivah are just teh anglicized pronunications- so you are being noit picky there. Jesus is Called god in John 1 Jesus is testified as being equal to God in John 2! God the Father did not die- God the Son did! God is a generic term meaning...

    What do you think about gender equality in Christianity?

    Well I do not equate holy with unhholy and all that other verbage you blathered about so that is moot! I say men and women are equal, but I do not believe in equality as I have repeatedly said. I asked yo0u to define the difference you understand between equal and equality and you have failed...

    The Absolute Equality of Jesus With The Father

    The shema shows Jehovah is plural. Shma' Is-rael Jehovah (singular) your Elohim 9plural) is one (echad ordinal not cardinal) Echad is the term for a compound one! John 1:1 King James Version 1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 persons called...

    The Absolute Equality of Jesus With The Father

    So Jesus is not God to you. Nor is He separate from His Father. The Holy Spirit is not a separate "entity" nor God to you.

    CHRISTMAS TREE

    Love the story and your song. but you are terrified of shadows and not reality. You gave the right word when you said "worship". Let me give you the appropriate verse here: 1 Corinthians 8 King James Version 8 Now as touching things offered unto idols, we know that we all have knowledge...

    "He who practices righteousness is righteous" (1 John 3:7)

    Well many times we receive a no for we pray amiss or we pray for something ultimately harmful. I know you don't get everything you pray for. You know that as well. Well you believe in sinlessness and not perfection while the bible teaches we are perfected but not sinless. The flesh is...

    What do you think about gender equality in Christianity?

    Well with all your faux spiritual vocabulary here, I am not even sure what you are trying to say. Men and woman have equal access to God, are equally saved and equally human, but woman are subordinate to their husbands. They are limited in equality with men, but I hold to scripture as I have...

    Drugs And Religion?

    Being closer to God is an awesome thing, but you won't get there with drugs. Under the care and guidance of physicians, psychotropics are a useful tool, but any other use is dangerous. Truman was right-- sorcery in the bible is pharamkea. Getting high, getting drunk produce an altered state...

    The Absolute Equality of Jesus With The Father

    Now you speak truth. A triad is different than a triune god. that is why the early Fathers in reading the Scriptures and seeing three seperate "persons" are all called God but there is one God! Even the Shma hints at this: "Hear O Israel, the Lord our God, the Lord is One". Foolish...

    Entire Sanctification

    Well how wonderfully arrogant of you. It is so nioce that so many people on this thread pretend to know what I think. For all you know we may be saying the same thing in different ways. I prefer the KJV way "He hath perfected forever, those being sanctified". Once again Sanctification is...

    Born again Christians do not use caffeine, nicotine, alcohol, OR ANY OTHER PSYCHOTROPIC DRUGS...

    You are a pharisee and know nothing of who Jesus is! Jesus drank wine and drank tea and coffee! Stop being lied to by demons who wish nothing more than to ruin your testimony before God, the world and the body of Christ!

    Entire Sanctification

    Right 100% Our new man cannot sin. Our old man cannot be holy. We choose sometime moment by moment which we give authority to in our heart. I teach my classes with a stick figure in a square. I say it is a block of marble. People see the block of marble slowly being chipped away to become...

    What do you think about gender equality in Christianity?

    Well you should get your definition out to the world then so they can argue about being equal and not equality! A 6' person has no equality with a 5' person as you seem to define i for they have a difference. They may be equal persons but do not have equality. e·qual /ˈēkwəl/ adjective 1...

    The Absolute Equality of Jesus With The Father

    Because Jesus is God with His Father. He is not an inferior deity or less divine than His Father in nature. But He is subordinate to His Father is authority and position without being less God than His Father in nature. that is the bible!

    The Absolute Equality of Jesus With The Father

    Well post the verse and explain how I am banging that drum wrong! Saying I am wrong is easy. Showing me takes willingness and a heart to instruct! So I await you showing me how I am misunderstanding 29 translations. How Jesus placing HImself under the autrhority of the Father is not a...

    Entire Sanctification

    Sorry, but spiritual growth is growing sanctification. Jesus is my sanctification, and He is now making me conformed to His image. This is what is known as positional and experiential truth. In my posiiton before God I am 100% sanctified. In my experience before God I am growing into what...
