    "Before Abraham Was, I AM"

    Err, you clearly didn't correctly read what I wrote! I hope you pay better attention when you read the Bible. I don't know what "quote the same verse the same" means, but you didn't provide a verse reference, but there is only one verse in the Bible which has the phrase "Christ in you", which...

    "Before Abraham Was, I AM"

    That is a misquote. It is not "the hope of God", it is, Colossians 1:27 WEB: (27) to whom God was pleased to make known what are the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory; Colossians 3:4 WEB (4) When Christ, our life, is revealed...

    "Before Abraham Was, I AM"

    No, I believe only God existed originally, and later God created His Son. God's Son was not immortal, so he was not exactly like God. When God resurrected Jesus, after Jesus had proved himself loyal to God and learned obedience, He gave him immortality, so now Jesus may have identical nature...

    "Before Abraham Was, I AM"

    God is immortal, which means that it is impossible for him to die or be killed. That means that He can't change His own nature to become a mortal human. He could, like the angels, appear to humans by creating and animating a human body, and then dissolving it away, but that would not be a...

    "Before Abraham Was, I AM"

    It is impossible for God to die - He is immortal (which means that it is impossible to die; a dictionary definition is 'not liable or subject to death'; Strong's says 'deathlessness') - 1 Timothy 6:13,16 WEB (13) I command you before God, ... (16) who alone has immortality, dwelling in...

    "Before Abraham Was, I AM"

    No, I am not. I know that eternal torment/torture is a lie. Romans 6:23 WEB (23) For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord. You clearly misunderstand and make wrong assumptions. A disctionary says, "speech, writing, etc, displaying...

    "Before Abraham Was, I AM"

    I have never done that. No I don't. That's more lies from you. How do you know what I have done? Yet more insults. You have still not shown me where, in which posts in this thread, I have written anything that matches your accusations. What have I written that diminishes "the True God, the...

    "Before Abraham Was, I AM"

    What have I written that is irrational? Be specific. For example, you wrote "you think the holy Spirit is a third person of a mysteriously three part god", so tell me where I wrote that. I'm 100% sure that I have not written anything in this thread (or any other thread) that implies that...

    "Before Abraham Was, I AM"

    You're wrong, I don't believe that. You've made the wrong assumption. Stop guessing what I believe or think! Good. I believe that too. Good. I believe that too. You're wrong about that. God's name is YHVH (Yahavah), translated as Yahweh in the WEB: Exodus 3:15 WEB (15) God said...

    "Before Abraham Was, I AM"

    If you can't support your view with relevant Bible verses, then I will not believe anything you write! Resorting to libel is not showing a correct Christian spirit.

    "Before Abraham Was, I AM"

    The English Bibles that we have are translations of the original writing's of God's Word. We can't fully trust all translations. Comparing different translations helps us to better understand the true meaning. For example, which is easier to understand - Genesis 25:29: KJV (29) And Jacob...

    "Before Abraham Was, I AM"

    Despite being in the form of God (a spirit being of high rank, above the angels), he didn't think that he should try to be equal to God, but instead he gave up all he had, his rank, authority and dignity, and in humility became a like a servant (he gave up his form of God and took the form of a...

    "Before Abraham Was, I AM"

    I had replied to 'amigo de christo' writing: The verses you quote from Revelation 1 do not mention "all them" throwing crowns at Jesus' feet. It just says that John fell at Jesus' feet. Revelation 1 is therefore unrelated to what he wrote!

    "Before Abraham Was, I AM"

    What have I written that is directly against almighty God YHVH or His beloved Son Yeshua? If you think I have said something you disagree with, then show me from the Bible why you think I am mistaken. As I said, this is a Bible Study forum! 2 Peter 1:17-18 WEB (17) For he received from God...

    "Before Abraham Was, I AM"

    What are you trying to say? This is a Bible Study forum, not a place to share ambiguous poetry.

    "Before Abraham Was, I AM"

    Why do you say that? There was no mention of Moses in the recorded discussion - Jesus spoke only about his Father and the Jews mentioned Abraham. Jesus simply declared that he had been in existence from before Abraham existed. There was nothing in what Jesus said that would lead the Jews to...

    "Before Abraham Was, I AM"

    (Continuing...) You don't say what translation you're quoting from, but the KJV has: (18) No man hath seen God at any time; the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, he hath declared him. Translation problem again! Other translations: KJV: (5) Whose are the fathers, and...

    "Before Abraham Was, I AM"

    No, he was only a man. Philippians 2:7-8 WEB (7) but emptied himself, taking the form of a servant, being made in the likeness of men. (8) And being found in human form, he humbled himself, becoming obedient to the point of death, yes, the death of the cross. ISV (7) Instead, poured out in...

    "Before Abraham Was, I AM"

    You need more clarification?! This is like teaching an infant! I was talking about just one verse - the expression "Consider 2 Corinthians 4:4" tells you that. It contains two occurrences of the Greek word theos, both of which are translated as god. The first occurrence is all lowercase and...

    "Before Abraham Was, I AM"

    I don't know why you are asking that! Why didn't you just read what I wrote, as it answers your question! I wrote: The "god of this world" is referring to Satan. That's the same Greek word that's translated as god (theos) that's used to refer to almighty God YHVH later in the verse, which is...
