Good post...Both the Father AND the Son are Lord...YHVH...At one point the Father is referred to as "Elyon"...the Most High. This is to differentiate the Father and the Son. The great mystery is the the Lord becoming 2 persons...yet retaining the same name of the previous union....Yahweh or...

We are to be carriers of divinity.....in these human forms. 2 Cor. 4:7 But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, so that the surpassing greatness of the power will be of God and not from ourselves;

The fires of hell extinguish life. God is not cruel. This is the second DEATH...not second torment. The confusion comes with lumping all the outcomes into one. People can't read the bible without adding in simplistic notions they have previously been taught. Like this idea of heaven and hell...

We know things by comparison. Offer a dog a steak and it will let go of the bone it is chewing on. So then Adam would have known the good he had lost when his eternal sight was lost so as to become as the sight of any animal. There was a huge gap in the life he once had and what he was presently...

Take a year...break down your thoughts into small ideas that can be digested after discussion.... or just be impatient and print the whole thing and get little or no notice. If you don't try to engage people they will not respond or be affected.

The point here is that there is no good outside of what God deems as good. There is no learning to judge when it comes to life. The knowledge of good and evil comes after taking the fruit of the forbidden tree...in that you only learn what is evil...by experiencing evil. So then the evil is the...

The word for skin in Hebrew is "or" written like this... עור It is written with a silent letter at the beginning...the ayin...which means "to see" The word for light in Hebrew is also "or" written like this... אור It is written with the other silent letter at the beginning...the aleph. So...

Actually the knowledge of good....came by disobedience. We aren't supposed to judge the goodness of something, as if we were qualified to judge anything, but rather rely on God.

We get so used to relying on our own power to do things. We can get in the car and go places...and really control a lot of what we do in a day. How much do we rely on God for? Did Philip the evangelist rely on a human form of transportation? No, actually he was "raptured" by the Spirit from one...

For one...Philip was transported by the Spirit from one town to the next. And he wasn't God. I think you may have a difficult time with the humanity of Jesus. We can do all things through Christ.

That's right...Jesus said we would do greater things...

I thought to list a few things from the bible that we can contemplate as to the nature of the New Covenant. The whole thing is based on the impossible. We all know that Jesus did the impossible as if it was ordinary....but so did His followers. When Peter was imprisoned and the chains fell...

We are learning to walk in His grace by faith. How did Peter walk on water? By grace. What got him to step out of the boat? Faith. So then as long as He believed he walked in grace. But as soon as his faith slipped...the grace "left" him. So we stumble on the path to spiritual maturity. What is...

Actually...it doesn't exist until a man actually walks in it. It is only potential before that. Unless a man walks in the power of Christ...just as Jesus did...the NC doesn't work. But it only takes one to make it real. The NC is by faith. But so is moving mountains...by faith. Peter walked for...

We are the temple now. In Acts...the believers helped each other, sharing all they had with those in need. We need to INVEST in each other. We need to build each other up in the faith.

To walk in it.

Amen. Know NO man according to the flesh...Jesus included.

If we act from a carnal knowledge we do what we think is right in our own eyes. Every man's ways are good in his own eyes. We are just so limited in knowledge and understanding. But connection with God makes us as wise, in a sense, as God is. When we take on His life we can be exactly as He is...

True. What seems evil to us could in fact work for good...and what seems good to us could very well work out for evil. That's what happens when you work in spiritual darkness.
