    Ephesians 3. Paul vs The Other Apostles & Prophets

    Although I do not think that Christianity is lacking anything that would suggest a need to look at the Old Testament for any religious our cultural beliefs or attitudes, it still stands as to what brought us here. Christ did not only save us from our sins but also saved us from the Mosaic Law...

    Ephesians 3. Paul vs The Other Apostles & Prophets

    Great insight. I will add that everything that Paul was as far as his commission as an Apostle and His level of revelation comes from his conversion in chapter 9 of Acts....How does a person react to a God saying to you, Saul Saul why are you persecuting Me? Then the Lord said to Ananias, Go...

    What sort of assumption makes one think.......

    Testament is a funny word because of how far it goes back through the languages. Ever heard of.... last will and testament... In our modern language it still carries a meaning of an agreement. But in the biblical era going into the Middle Ages its main definition meant significant covenant or...

    What sort of assumption makes one think.......

    No I do not think He would have killed them. And neither one of us know what they were thinking...just feeling fear. The frame work of Yahweh's Law showed no indication that the Mosaic Law was a suggestion. Intolerance to sin was the rule. He could not be in the congregation of men. It does not...

    Silly question, but a thought provoking one:

    All being full-fledged Gods. Yahweh, God the Father Almighty, Creator of Heaven and Earth. Yeshua, God the Son, Messiah, and Savior. God the Holy Spirit, the unnamed God, that teaches us, strengthens us, and helps us. Christ said, The Father is greater than I. All full-fledged Gods but there...

    Silly question, but a thought provoking one:

    Against God...as with which one....Yahweh? Well I disagree because it is a God pointing the offense to another God. Now I have theories on this, as to why it was unforgiveable. But I do believe it has to be an intent that is specific. In context the Pharisees were accusing Christ of using the...

    Silly question, but a thought provoking one:

    Since I believe that they have their own minds, wills, and presence...I believe that Christ has His own will but does the will of the Father....another case for positional authority. Of course and then, you have the concept of perfection in motion, which is another form of unity and solidarity...

    Silly question, but a thought provoking one:

    I have a very long explanation for the Trinity in Grailhunter's Corner and I pointed this scripture out as the best explanation for the Trinity. The type of "oneness" that the Trinity has will be the type of "oneness" we will have with God in the end. That does not mean we will all be one...

    Silly question, but a thought provoking one:

    That part of Psalms has a theme. And my initial read is not going to be an effort to take the scripture out of context. But I also believe in the Living Word of God....the Trinity. And what I mean by that is exponential readings from the perspective of a person that has a connection with the...

    Silly question, but a thought provoking one:

    Don't take the time to quote scriptures...I think we got that. All things are possible, somethings are not probable. How could they limit an all powerful God other than by holding Him to His own Word... even though they hurt themselves by doing it. וַיָּשׁ֣וּבוּ וַיְנַסּ֣וּ אֵ֑ל וּקְד֖וֹשׁ...
  11. Grailhunter

    Silly question, but a thought provoking one:

    As a whole terms....slogans......chiché that are not in the Bible, are advertisements for false beliefs. The word Trinity is not in the Bible and the phrase Original Sin is not in the Bible. The Trinity was a doctrine developed by the Roman Catholic Church, the belief of which was not originally...

    Silly question, but a thought provoking one:

    It not a salvation issue. You and I have talked about that before. It is a belief issue. Christianity makes sense, it is not a religion of non-sense. People that are paying attention maybe asking.... How can one God beget Himself? How does that work? God the Father loves His Son. Does God the...

    Silly question, but a thought provoking one:

    How you feeling with this thing? Stress I understand but is it getting you down? International forum....you got a lot of people praying for you. As far as the Trinity...so many questions are answered and understandings that come into focus if the one God Formula is dropped.

    Silly question, but a thought provoking one:

    All good Amadeus. I am addressing the fact that the Roman Catholic doctrine of the Trinity is way off and skews the meaning of not only the scriptures but as a concept and the storyline of the Gospels. Yahweh, God the Father, Almighty, creator of Heaven earth. Yeshua, God the Son, Messiah and...
  15. Grailhunter

    Silly question, but a thought provoking one:

    Who is able to make sense out of it all? Who is able to open up those things which have been sealed? You guys do it to yourselves....really and honestly. The one God formula for the Trinity pretty much makes a kaleidoscope out of the scriptures. You can work and work and you will never get a...

    Tongues

    The History of the charismatic movement is interesting and it has some twist and turns. Charismatic beliefs go back several centuries but was more or less "popularized" became more common with the The Great Awakenings. 1700's when these groups began to show up in congregations an then specific...

    What sort of assumption makes one think.......

    God does not change. Why would Yahweh God the Father change? Why would Yeshua the Son of God change? Why would the Holy Spirit change? How many Covenants in the OT. The Covenants changed but Yahweh, God the Father did not change. Yahweh, God the Father gave the authority to Yeshua, God the Son...

    What sort of assumption makes one think.......

    Who is using concessions against God? Justify what? and What is...what God never intended? It is simple, do not mix Judaism with Christianity.

    Tongues

    Nice is not going to get you to Heaven. But there is something to be said about the nature that a denomination projects into the people that follow it. Up to this point I have never met a Mormon I didn't like. And the character and politeness of their young is a pleasant surprise. Now I am not...

    What sort of assumption makes one think.......

    In order to understand the scriptures, you have to at least understand what words mean. Murder is unjustified killing. 613 Mosaic Laws quite a few when broken commanded execution...plain and simple. That did not constitute murder. The Mosaic Law that said when God gave them a land....and when He...
