Reading comprehension. Jesus said God is greater. The Pharisees made another claim. Pretending the Pharisees claim of equality is Jesus’ claim of equality reeks of desperation. The point of Jesus’ divinity is moot according to the Bible for nowhere does it say belief in the trinity or divinity...

His humanity is all Jesus has - without the divinity of OUR Father, God.

No. I have no idea how you could wonder that based on what I wrote.

Willing to die for your beliefs is the only standard that matters if you are a Christ follower. Otherwise, you are luke warm. Our society today falsely equate words with action. Talk is cheap. Real commitment is to the death. Why do you ask this question?

Aren't the rest of us ALSO begotten of God's Spirit? Isn't that what it means to be born again? Jesus calls us brothers, not some lower rank than he, but brothers. God calls us his children. It's so funny that trinitarians suppose there is equality of God and Jesus, when Jesus, Himself, says...

You mean like proclaiming the trinity is in the Bible when it is not?

You CANNOT believe Jesus said BOTH God is greater than he BUT equal?!

IMO, the need for supernatural gifts does not diminish with time. I can share my many supernatural experiences at a later time. For now, the profound question is why do churches tend to shy away from it? The answer is harsh. Many charlatans have been exposed over time, shaming and demoralizing...

I’ve learned to liberally use the ignore feature.

No. Your complex question has an implied premise which I reject. It was figurative language (and an example of God lying among many examples. See 1 Kings 22:20-23.) When I tell my teenager to be home by 11 PM and she inserts an adjective, claiming she did by coming home at 11 PM - PST instead...

For some reason, only the America Standard seems available to me on this site. Am I missing something?

Amen The truth does not depend on who wants to go where. The integration of the 2 points are simple. First, we are all sinners and all need the saving grace of Christ. Second, Jesus loves us too much not to be transformed by the experience of receiving the Spirit of God through him. A...

This is where Christians get into trouble, losing discernment. It is simply incorrect to ever say only judge can judge because there are 8 billion humans, all of whom can judge. Best to say what can be eternally defended: God is the ultimate or final judge. It is incorrect to say only he can...

Is there a way to change the translation of the Bible when I hover over it or is only one translation available? Not too fond of ye's and thou's, etc, of middle English.

I'm sorry but I did not see this thread until just now. What makes a Christian is exactly following the teachings of and model the grace-filled life of Jesus, Anointed by God. Not sure what you mean by any of this.

Is English your first language? Can you admit there are any figurative expressions in the Bible?

I have an odd situation at my new job. There is this bipolar guy who is allowed by management to mistreat people. He's been at the center of many strong arguments, some nearly getting physical. I've been told by coworkers that how I react to him is off-putting, not giving him the satisfaction...

To me, this is one of the most attractive aspect of Christianity, power and Spirit. It's coupled in numerous passages, all of which grab me. God has beautifully chosen to work through others. In this work, is not only power but the Spirit of Grace. A powerful scene in Les Miserables is when...

They did die but what you put in parentheses is not in the text. It is so typical of trinitarians to read what is not there. I honestly believe they do not even realize it. What you put in parentheses is what makes the text figurative. Isn't that what we are talking about here, literal versus...

What does, "You are my son. Today, I have become your father" mean if not adoption? You do not know the Good News of Jesus, Anointed by God. It saddens me how ignorant Christians are of their own faith, not grasping what Paul wrote about our inheritance. Thank You, Father, as You have made us...
