No he doesn't! Why would Jesus talk nonsense? For example, if a person named John was older than a person called Abraham, John wouldn't say to another person, "Before Abraham was born, John". It wouldn't make any sense. What Jesus was saying is, "Most certainly, I tell you, since before...

It sounds like you don't understand how Charles Taze Russell and the Bible Students came up with the year 1914. Obviously the year 1914 does not appear in the Bible, nor is any other year mentioned using our dating system. From Wikipedia: This calendar era is based on the traditionally...

I was just trying to be humorous - hence the winking smiley.

I'm sorry, I was mistaken about that. I was under the impression that you had claimed that, based on other posters' comments. I should have checked more carefully. However, you did say, "All love honor reverence or devotion given to Mary is given to God who created her, ...", and Deuteronomy...

Matthew 4:10 (WEB): (10) Then Jesus said to him, “Get behind me, Satan! For it is written, ‘You shall worship the Lord your God, and you shall serve him only.’” which is quoting Deuteronomy 6 (WEB): (13) You shall fear Yahweh your God; and you shall serve him, and shall swear by his name...

Ok, I'll take that as an admission that you were wrong to state that "Christ will reign forever and ever in the Kingdom which contrasts against your interpretation of 1 Corinthians 15:24-28", seeing as you don't seem to want to admit that you got it wrong. I won't comment on it further.

Check what Jesus said about calling nobody your father: Matthew 23 (WEB): (1) Then Jesus spoke to the multitudes and to his disciples, (2) saying, “The scribes and the Pharisees sat on Moses’ seat. (3) All things therefore whatever they tell you to observe, observe and do, but don’t do their...

May I point out that the word Babylon means 'confusion (by mixing)'.

I also did not write that God had only temporarily exalted Jesus to the position of ruler of God's Kingdom. Why would you assume that?! I plainly stated in posts #424 and #464 that "I have never claimed that Jesus will not reign forever", so why won't you accept that? You seem to be being...

My post that you were commenting on was post #390. In it I said "God will rule forever, but God has chosen Jesus to rule for Him". I never said Jesus would cease to be the King of God's Kingdom. I pointed out that you had misinterpreted 1 Cor. 15:27 as implying Jersus was excepted from being...

I think you'll find that the day of Pentecost that you're referring to was after Jesus started his ministry. I don't see how that indicates that what I stated was incorrect!

You are confusing me with another poster. I have never claimed that Jesus will not reign forever.

Revelation 1:18 is not Jesus speaking, it is God: (8) “I am the Alpha and the Omega, ” says the Lord God, “who is and who was and who is to come, the Almighty.”

Correct. He is God Almighty Correct, His name remains the same forever (although it was YHVH, pronounced Yahavah): Exodus 3:15 (WEB): God said moreover to Moses, "You shall tell the children of Israel this, ‘Yahweh, the God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of...

Yes, I'm fine, thanks. My words were simply pointing to the simple fact that he felt that his intelligence was being insulted, yet the post he was replying to did not include any insults, only a recommendation that he should follow the teachings of the apostle Paul. I thought I had explained...

My post had nothing to do with the New World Translation (and I am not a Jehovah's Witness). I was quoting the 'Cambridge Bible for Schools and Colleges', a commentary on the KJV, published between 1882 - 1921 (before the creation of the JWs). Indeed, like the Trinity doctrine that was added...

Note that Rev. 11:15 says "the kingdom of our Lord, and of his Christ", that is, of God and of His anointed (Jesus). Clearly, once again, the Scriptures distinguish between God and His Son Jesus. It says "he" will rule forever, that is, God will rule forever, but God has chosen Jesus to rule...

The WEB translates it as: (2) But you, Bethlehem Ephrathah, being small among the clans of Judah, out of you one will come out to me that is to be ruler in Israel; whose goings out are from of old, from ancient times. The Cambridge Bible Notes says: The passage will then become a statement...

Where in Acts does it say that? You could not become a member of the Church, and be a Christian, until Jesus had started his ministry. As Jesus said, Matthew 11:11-13 (WEB): (11) Most certainly I tell you, among those who are born of women there has not arisen anyone greater than John the...

I do not worship God in ignorance. YHVH is not Jesus. You're just agreeing with the quote from Chuck Missler ("the Old Testament is in the New Testament revealed")! I do not reject Jesus and I do believe the Old and New Testaments. You are being libelous. He was the founder (with his wife)...
