In the Gospel of Matthew we are told by Jesus that it was a vision. Do you not believe that other men also have been (in the past) and will be (in the future) resurrected from the dead? The spiritual body described in scripture which we will have is capable of doing remarkable things which...

I haven’t for a while. Those things seem to run in cycles. Do you remember the WWJD bracelets that were popular at one time? Maybe they still are but I haven’t seen anyone wearing one for quite a while. That’s interesting. Which of his writings is it found in?

What a mess. Where do you think it goes from here?

I’m not certain but I remember reading somewhere that a 19th century preacher, Charles Sheldon, is the person generally credited with coining the phrase. Who do you think it was? I don’t hear the acronym used as frequently now as it was in the past. What about W.W.J.S. (What Would Jesus Say)...

What is it, precisely, that you want me to explain about it? What, if anything, does your question have to do with his God and my God being the Father? A person whose God is only one person isn’t a trinitarian. Right?

That’s right. His God and my God.

Like I said … no surprise there. Who is the Messiah, the high priest of the order of Melchizedek, offering to?

I don’t think you can accept it or will be able to agree with it but the priesthood of all believers is the same order as the Messiah’s priesthood. That priesthood will reign and rule with him when he returns.

Thanks for confirming.

Thanks. I don’t see how anyone can look at these verses and conclude that Jesus, the apostles and the early church used instruments of torture on people whom they either suspected or knew to be heretics who wouldn’t repent and then turned them over to the state for imprisonment and execution...

I deny that there is a God besides the God of the OT prophets, Jesus and the apostles.

You already know that I don’t. If you’re wondering, I already knew that you do. I believe there is no God besides Jesus’ God; that Jesus is God only in a secondary sense.

That’s the primary sense.

Will Jesus be persuaded by those who say there is a God besides his God?

I believe Jesus is in some sense God. You believe Jesus is in some sense God. What you believe is impossible with God, I believe is both possible and true. We’ll all stand before Jesus one day. I think you’ll have an opportunity to explain to him why you don’t think it’s possible that there is...

What would you say to Jesus if he himself were ever to tell you that there is no God besides his God?

Do you believe in any sense what has been called “the priesthood of all believers” (1 Peter 2:5-9)?

Without a Roman Catholic priest.

I’m greatly surprised. Where do you see Jesus, the apostles and the early church using Inquisition techniques and then turning unrepentant people over to the state for imprisonment, punishment and execution expressed in scripture?

It’s? That brings to mind English translations of the prologue in John’s Gospel prior to 1611. See, for example, Tyndale’s translation.
