    What books are you currently reading?

    I’ll get to some of them after I finish reading the Epistles of Cyprian. (67 down, 15 to go.)

    Reasons Jews Reject Jesus

    I don’t read or respond to long posts on forums @Johann. If you want a conversation with me, keep it short. * I believe Jesus is God, but not in the same way that you do.

    And gone is @Johann. :) (Maybe he has something to do away from this forum, like I did. Mine was lawn work. Now it’s lunch, then another commitment that will take me away and occupy my time and attention for a few hours.) He’ll be back. Write it down.

    Reasons Jews Reject Jesus

    See all scripture which speaks about the messiah promised by his God. You haven’t seemed to have grasped yet that the issue isn’t scripture. The issue is the interpretation of scripture. You have a Hellenic mindset. I don’t.

    Not hardly.

    No. That’s exactly what I believe. 2.

    Reasons Jews Reject Jesus

    See the prologue of John’s gospel in the Geneva Bible, for example.

    In the mind of his God.

    Reasons Jews Reject Jesus

    It is because you don’t acknowledge notional / ideal preexistence.

    Reasons Jews Reject Jesus

    Begin first by asking, what is the logos? Jesus of Nazareth is that logos made flesh.
  12. Matthias

    Reasons Jews Reject Jesus

    Yes. No, you are not correct.
  13. Matthias

    Reasons Jews Reject Jesus

    I use the same scripture that you use.

    Reasons Jews Reject Jesus

    Everything preexisted in the Father’s logos before he created it. Yours.

    Reasons Jews Reject Jesus

    Then neither you nor I am into kabbalah. The two of us can set it aside in our conversation. I believe Christ Jesus preexisted in the logos of his God and mine. The technical term for it is notional preexistence, also called ideal preexistence.

    Reasons Jews Reject Jesus

    No. I’m directing people to a Jew, Jesus of Nazareth.
  17. Matthias

    Reasons Jews Reject Jesus

    My belief is not like the belief of the JW’s. They believe in literal preexistence (as do you); I believe in non-literal preexistence.
  18. Matthias

    Reasons Jews Reject Jesus

    I’m not deflecting. Christ Jesus is a begotten / created being; begotten / created by His God and my God, by his Father and my Father.
  19. Matthias

    Reasons Jews Reject Jesus

    The Kabbalah is Jewish mysticism.

    Reasons Jews Reject Jesus

    The refutation of Shamoun is Jesus of Nazareth. Jesus is the son of man, the messiah; promised, raised up and sent into the world by his God and Mine. To be begotten is to be created. I worship both God and the messianic king. For reference, see 1 Chronicles 29:20.
