(Christina;68538) The angels are the sons of God read Job yes we are made 3 in 1 as the trinity but that doesnt disprove the angels look like us as they do throughout scripture They may well be sons of God and, at times, resemble us, but are they made in God's image? I can find that written...

That's so foolish... God also made the earth... is IT made in His image?The fact that you keep coming back to Lot... I thought I had explained my view.The reference to the angels in the story as "men", is only because the people come to Lot's house and demand he turn "the men" out, so they might...

God made the angels. I'm afraid I don't see your point. Did you think I did not believe He did?

My point is this: God, the Father, Jesus the Savior, and the Holy Spirit, are together in creation... So when the verse says, "created man in Our image," Genesis refers to the Trinity.The angels are NOT made in God's image. They are not men. Men are created in God's image, and that is...

And to you ONLY has God revealed the meaning of His word? Sounds a bit prideful to me.Besides, isn't this forum called "Christianity Board"? I'm sorry you've been so burned by the churches you've tried, but frankly, you act as though no one BUT you has ever thought deeply about scripture and...

I'm sorry... but no where does the Word overtly state that we are created in the image of the angels. God, yes clearly, definitively, but not the angels.In fact, it flies in the face of most biblical scholars teaching that we are MORE IMPORTANT to God THAN the angels, that He gave US the...

Wait... before we get lost in the mystery of the God Head... where does it say that we are made in the image of God AND the angels?

I understand what you're saying about the Trinity. It confuses many people because they can't understand how one God can have three distinct parts. I think of it as a pie... though it be composed of three pieces, it is still one pie. While we know that Jesus is God incarnate, he nonetheless...

Genesis 1:26 - And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. When God said let us make men...

Yes, there are many instances, it seems to me, of Angels taken on the appearance of men in order to disguise themselves... isn't that part of the narrative of the verses though? To tell US, the reader, that they're really angels in the disguise men?

I'm still confused though... where exactly does it say that angels are referred to as man? What I see from Isaiah 14:16 is that people will see the devil revealed and wonder essentially, "is this the same as the guy we've been following, who set himself up in the House of the Lord?"But I'm not...

Again though, even 2 Thessalonians 2:3-4, refers to a "man"... I understand that there have been many men throughout time who people of the day called the anti-Christ, and that only one would be, but won't he still be a man? Or, at least, satan disguised as one?

Question, Jordan, I was always under the impression that the anti-Christ referred to a man in close association with satan... I didn't really see anything in those verses to contradict that.What makes you think that the term "anti-Christ" refers strictly to satan himself?[edited because I found...

Speaking on his pro-abortion stance, I read a good blog about it before the election... One line that stands out is how the pro-abortion people prefer to call us "anti-choice", instead of pro-life, as if we're just taking away a woman's choice of bread for her sandwich... [added- that line is]...

I think, Christina, you missed my point. My pastor was giving us details about the natural world which are not mentioned in the Bible. These details are astounding to the average person, like myself, who wouldn't think to ask them... Astounding because they reinforce what the scripture says...

Is it not possible that the form of wisdom God sends is that of a book about the fish of the Galilee? Or in the shape of someone, like my pastor, who already read such a book?And who would have thought to ask that question? And even if you did wonder, all by yourself, what the fish were like...

No, I feel ya', guys... But may I suggest finding a Calvary Chapel and trying it out? I, obviously, can't speak for them all, but my pastor is the coolest, humblest, but most Bible-knowledgeable man I've ever met.I mean... talk about depth of the word... We were studying the story of Jesus...

Well, you certainly hit on the verse I was alluding to, but as I said in the last post, this isn't a gathering in a traditional sense of the word. Our Creator saw it all from the beginning, but I don't think the any reader of Matthew, until very recent history, could envision a way of...

Wow, Jordan... I'm really sorry. All I can offer you is to keep trying. Somewhere out there is a pastor who can feed you, with a congregation who'll love you. You know the recommendation of Matthew 18, and while I guess this can be considered a house of the Lord, what about corporal praise...

You're so right! I know that we're in God's hands and positive prayer is the right approach to the woes of our world, but man...I heard some ridiculous figure about the number of people in this country who call themselves "Evangelical Christians." It's huge! Where were they?Uh, er, sorry...
