This is too simplistic. You have avoided the Thayer's lexicon, and that the word is passive. It means to be sent; no number of KJV/Strong errors will change it. I say this only because I don't believe in deponent verbs, or Strong's "lexicon".

Fragment 4: Annihilation of the Realm of Death I find it interesting how Valentinus is pre-Origen and pre-Orthodox with this statement. The belief that you are save while not in the afterlife is utterly gnostic in origin. Valentinus believed Mankind had immortal godlike sparks in him, but this...

What tortoise does he ride to his second coming? [Rev 3:11 KJV] 11 Behold, I come quickly: hold that fast which thou hast, that no man take thy crown. [Rev 22:7, 12, 20 KJV] 7 Behold, I come quickly: blessed [is] he that keepeth the sayings of the prophecy of this book. ... 12 And, behold, I...

You are delusional. Just like the watchtower loves them. These are all lie, but a group without college degrees is trying to teach me otherwise. Neo luddite baloney. Perhaps you should go get vaccinated with a Covid shot. If you don't die, you will understand the business side of medicine...

@TheHC Blood transfusions aren't the cause of death. Surgery is. Perhaps it is better that JWs die then spread their lame brand of unitarianism.

We can say God rescued Israel from Egypt, but we cannot rescue the dead, because they are already dead. And everything dies.

Not according to the Greek definition of σῴζω which means to rescue from death. God save[d] the children of Israel from Egypt. Do find one verse where it is talking about the afterlife instead of permanent life which was given to Enoch.

Yes, I am not a JW, nor a James White.

Salvation of the living, and waking the dead are 2 different things; nor am I a JW, and I don't mean a James White.

The role for Jesus doesn't provide divine status, though he is demigod.

You are now implying the Father isn't God, because he doesn't judge. The reverse would have to be true, since the Father is more than the messiah.

There are many lords and many gods, but only Jesus was considered to be lord, and only YHWH is the God who made the universe. English Standard Version (ESV) 12 “Behold, I am coming soon, bringing my recompense with me, to repay each one for what he has done. 13 I am the Alpha and the Omega...

It may be less than what you think. Both the Father and Jesus are the Alpha and Omega.

It most certainly is not. That would mean God is the person called "salvation" every time he wakes the dead.

And the Jews who think otherwise? Jesus doesn't wake people from the dead. And concerning James 2:10: For whoever keeps the whole law but fails in one point, [he]has become guilty G1777 of all the liability[G1777]. - James 2:10 ἔνοχος Vine's Expository Dictionary: View Entry TDNT...

The word is idol, and I do know it is just an idol. Imagine that.

Begotten not made is the story of human reproduction, not the Incarnation.

Yes, per God it was. God doesn't want you to be a fool. Miracles are not caused by faith. God decides if it is necessary. Only if God is actually helping is that wise advice. It isn't wise advice. How is he "God incarnate" other than through idolatry?

It applies only if you have God backing you up with miracles. Enemies are not necessarily peers. Jesus said, not Jesus says; there is a difference. He didn't become a man.
