    Shall we discuss this?

    Better than that. You will begin to pray to God THROUGH Jesus, and have a perfect understanding of whom you are speaking with. The alternative is kinda like talking to one's spouse and thinking they are not that person....can get hostile. I have learned to speak only to Jesus, knowing full...

    Shall we discuss this?

    Hey, I knew a minister that kissed other ministers on the cheek in the early 80'2. That (elder)man was a real Apostolic. Unthinkable 40 years later...

    Shall we discuss this?

    Because we don't agree with these verses, and they are dotted through the OT and the NT. The idea of Jesus having a God is preposterous to the incarnationist(oops, I let the cat out).

    Shall we discuss this?

    Folks disagree with the 3 verses of the OP. They cannot imagine greeting folks like Paul did in Eph 1:3. Have you ever heard anyone greet a congregation etc., with "the God and Father of our Lord Jesus...". No, they run from such first century language.

    Shall we discuss this?

    You are right. After the Apostles died, it started and became the mess we see. Still getting messier too....

    The relationship between faith and works.

    I can see God accepting mankind(Grace). But man accepting God? That means God is on the same level as man....like God groveling on our level hoping that wicked men would accept Him.

    Shall we discuss this?

    God's human nature spoke of His God? Please elaborate. So, in Ephesians 1:3 Paul was speaking about the God of our Lord Jesus as the God of His own human nature? Please elaborate. This is interesting. Thanks.

    Shall we discuss this?

    I agree with Jesus is God, but the scriptures per the OP says Jesus has a God as we speak. So, can you make this work? I figured it out already, but I will hold back so you can give me your thoughts on whether to incorporate or dismiss the verses from the OP.

    With So Many Denominations...

    It all starts from whether someone obeys Acts 2:38 or not. If one disobeys Acts 2:38, they are not in the Acts church, but a denomination. If one obeys Acts 2:38, they are in the Acts church, which is not a denomination.

    Shall we discuss this?

    I guess it is this easy....folks don't agree with many verses in their Bible. Jesus and the apostles taught Jesus has a God right now as we speak. We disagree wth the Apostles and Jesus, but I know exactly why. If you want to know what causes this phenomenon, just ask....

    Shall we discuss this?

    In several years, there have never been takers. Something is super fishy....

    The relationship between faith and works.

    That works....as long as we don't say we "accept Jesus as our personal savior". Who do we think we are saying "accept Jesus"?

    Shall we discuss this?

    I am just posting Bible verses. What do you think this is saying? Just respond to the OP verses...thanks. Why don't we greet each other like Paul did in verse 3? Does it make us cringe?

    How could the Messiah be sinless?

    Jesus was sinless because he had the Holy Ghost without measure and was led by it. It assisted him to refrain from sinning and to the cross, left him to die then resurrected him from the dead. He was the example of walking in the Spirit for all to observe.

    Shall we discuss this?

    17 Jesus saith unto her, Touch me not; for I am not yet ascended to my Father: but go to my brethren, and say unto them, I ascend unto my Father, and your Father; and to my God, and your God.... 3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual...

    How God teaches

    Amen. We may need someone to explain things to us(generally at first), but after years of reading it, it seems to suddenly come together without outside explanation. This is becoming a first century disciple, rather than a modern disciple.

    How God teaches

    Nothing but the Lord's book, really.

    The relationship between faith and works.

    I had a public debate with some Hebrew roots friends. We went over the 613(I printed a copy for everyone in the room). We ended up checking them off one at a time with a yes, no or maybe, as per if they could still be kept or not. At the end, I quoted the verse, "if we offend in one Law, we...
