Dueling threads

Projecting. Speaking of the Cross, I never got a rational explanation on how you dismiss the very words of Christ on point at Matthew 7:21.

Found a powerful verse undermining OSAS: This is what the Lord says: “Do not go to funerals to mourn and show sympathy for these people, for I have removed my protection and peace from them. I have taken away my unfailing love and my mercy. Jeremiah 16:5 The LORD giveth, the LORD taketh away.

Interesting question. My answer is no. I believe the point is to strengthen Christian fellowship. A modern day application is AA. Sure, the alcoholics may commit other sins but the sin they have in common is the one they struggle with and will greatly benefit by sharing their struggles with it.

Agreed. Sounds better when you say it. The VOICE translation uses the word Eternal to emphasize that the LORD God alone does not die and always was, not created - unlike the begotten Son.

The problem with your rants is your opponents do not accept your terms or categorization. That is, I accept the atonement of Christ AND reject OSAS. Using language like the Devils Gospel is inflammatory and I did notice you just ignored my Scriptural question. Poor form. Taking the risk of...

We surely do need each other. That is God’s plan. How long have you known Ed & Linda? I pray the medical teams and equipment perform at divine levels, even better than the team members though possible in bringing relief to our brother and sister. I ask this in Jesus name. Amen.

Strong statement. Where does Scripture say if you don’t accept OSAS, you yourself cannot be saved?

My prayers are with them.

Jesus NEVER said he was God. He performed miracles and forgave sins for the same reason the Apostles. God delegated power. We know Jesus was not God for many reasons. One is he said he was GIVEN all authority. Another way we know Jesus is not God is that Jesus died.

It’s amazing how you recite this nonsense not in Scripture. What does it mean ‘Today I am your Father?’ It means Jesus - like all of us later - are chosen children of God, adopted, not God of God.

Right. Same with Jesus. In harmony with God but not God. That’s what John 17:22 means.

Great point!

The only mystery is the Godhead does not exist in Scripture but people talk as if it does.

You forgot to complete the analysis. God and we are in one Spirit per John 17:22. Proving we too are God OR Jesus is not God.

Not cannot. He alone is God. We are not talking about titles. There is no other God but the LORD - who alone is God and there is no other. This is stated repeatedly in Scripture.

Proving my point! God, in his unitarian nature, is our Father. God is the Father of Jesus and our Father. Every reference you made confirms this, which proves Jesus is not God.

See my thread on explicit teachings in the Bible.

Doesn’t seem very Godly to me.
