    Collosians 1:15-16

    What commentary? I quoted from Scripture. Perhaps you don't recognize that what I've said comes from the Bible because you are the one using commentaries or perhaps the NWT of Scripture, therefore you don't recognize the words from Scripture? The seven days of creation are certainly included...

    Collosians 1:15-16

    In the mind of God the Lamb's blood was shed from the foundation of the world! If not Christ would not have been the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world. That's why we read in Hebrews 4:3 says, "....the works were finished from the foundation of the world." And all ordained to eternal...

    Christians arent suppose to judge according to Jesus?

    It appears you're not properly discerning the words of Christ here. He says we will be judged according to how we judge others. Which is why He begins by saying we will be judged for the same things we judge of others. We aren't able to judge others unless we have first judged ourselves...

    Collosians 1:15-16

    The cross if fulfillment of the Covenant promise ordained in heaven from creation between God the Father, God the Son (Word), and God the Holy Spirit! 1 John 5:6-7 (KJV) This is he that came by water and blood, even Jesus Christ; not by water only, but by water and blood. And it is the Spirit...

    Collosians 1:15-16

    What good is there in having one JW's call Jesus heading your congregation if He (Jesus) is not THE God but a god according to your doctrine? It seems you have not a Saviour because only THE God can give life!

    Collosians 1:15-16

    What you call "active force" is the giver of life according to Scripture. Scripture also informs us that only God ALONE gives life. Without what you call an "active force" there would be NO life on earth. Therefore the Holy Spirit is indeed God! John 6:63 (KJV) It is the spirit that...

    Collosians 1:15-16

    Then why does Scripture tell us that Christ is the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world? (Rev 13:8; 17:8) Seems according to promise Christ would not fail to be the Savior of His people, since the Covenant was ordained in heaven at creation, and the promises of God in Him are "yes" and...

    Born of water

    I desire truth, of which I've given you, and you say "we disagree"! I have no desire to hear how JW's twist and manipulate the Scripture. Without the Spirit in you, you cannot have proper understanding of Scripture. And you have not the Spirit since you deny Almighty God alone saves man, and...

    Born of water

    It's the earth that shall be as John describes after God makes all things new. IOW after the spiritual Kingdom of God is complete, then Christ will return and all of His people will physically inhabit a new earth and the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as...

    Born of water

    Amen! When Christ returns all who have been born again by having partaken of the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead in this life, will be bodily resurrected immortal and incorruptible, once again complete living soul possessing both eternal spirit and immortal body, and fit to live with...

    "NOW" = made free from sin

    When we are born again we are no different than the Apostle Paul. Paul, and every believer alive on this earth are still clothed in mortal bodies destined to corruption and death. Natural man supernaturally saved is still warring against the old nature. We will not attain perfect...

    The Appearing of our Great God and Savior Jesus Christ

    Jesus is God! God became a man to save His people! There is ONE GOD, revealed to mankind in three persons, God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit = three, yet ONE!

    "NOW" = made free from sin

    Are you saying that in your body of mortality and corruption you have attained to a perfect sinless life? That you never sin? Do you walk so perfectly in the Light of Christ that you never get impatient, are never rude, always love your enemies, and give up your own life for the lives of...

    Born of water

    If that were true, there would be no more tears, no more death, nor sorrow, nor crying, no more pain, for the former things (these things belonging to this world before all is made new again) are passed away. If you desire to know the truth, separate yourself from JW's cult. As long as you...

    "NOW" = made free from sin

    Behold, even after we have been saved we struggle to overcome things of this world, as well as things of the flesh, and we will until we are resurrected to immortality and incorruptible. Yes, we have the mind of Christ that we are warned to be renewing daily, but we also have the mind that we...

    "NOW" = made free from sin

    Romans 7:14-25 (KJV) For we know that the law is spiritual: but I am carnal, sold under sin. For that which I do I allow not: for what I would, that do I not; but what I hate, that do I. If then I do that which I would not, I consent unto the law that it is good. Now then it is no more I that...

    "NOW" = made free from sin

    I understand the point you're making, but you cannot deny there is a struggle going on in our (believers) mind between the Spirit of Christ in us, and the carnal fleshly mind that we will always have with us until we breath our last. With this I agree! When we focus on the things of this...

    God's Friend.

    Luke 12:4 (KJV) And I say unto you my friends, Be not afraid of them that kill the body, and after that have no more that they can do. John 15:13-14 (KJV) Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends. Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever I command you...

    "NOW" = made free from sin

    How does knowing we have been made free from sin keep us from choosing sometimes to sin? While I agree when we have His Spirit in us we have the ability to walk by the Spirit and not by the flesh, but how, while still clothed in bodies of mortal, and corruptible flesh can we be perfectly...
