You have said a lot there, and I agree with all of it except the first part where you synthesize the two very different concepts of create and begotten.

Thank You Brother, can you please share your thoughts on the difference(s) - Thank You and Thank You again for your love

You said: "I believe the Jesus I worship was a literal Son, brought forth of the Father at same time in eternity,"

Please 'bring forth' any scripture that you see this in. Thank You Brother

@Backlit , should I kick down your door and demand you repent for believing the "wrong Jesus" and imply that you're going to Hell?
We are discussing theology. Not once have I ever demanded you are with my understanding of the issue. But I believe I am correct in that I worship the true Jesus. I believe I am also correct that if anyone is worshiping a different Jesus, they're in trouble. Now you should be saying the very same thing.

If you don't want other people implying that you worship a "false Jesus", then please don't do such to me or anyone else.

Dear Sister, we love you, do not take sharing of the Word against you - detach yourself from religion since God is not part of it.

Remember this, it was the religious leaders that wanted to stone Christ and eventually betrayed Him and had their Messiah murdered.

Let none of us do the same here in order to keep alive what God has condemned.

i see no offense by Brother Backlit towards you - you can blame me if you want to - i'm an easy target.

It is, and always has been, religion that divides. Religion started in the Garden from the Serpent - "did God really say..."

AMEN - i did when i left the doctrines of demons of RCC and JW and LDS and all doctrines that violate Deut 4:1-2, Proverbs 30:5-6 and Revelation 22:18-19

Christ is not part of LDS, JW, RCC or the rest of them. CHRIST is the WORD who was/is GOD from the beginning - John 1:1

OK, what evidence do you have of such a serious accusation - if, you cannot prove what you say, then what???
I’m doing this to prove a point: having such accusations lobbed against you do string and are usually done with little actual knowledge. It’s not being Christ-like, it’s being just being an Egotitical jerk. And this is exactly the type of thing you’re supporting other people doing to me.

Great point - but did you say that to me to make a point, or, do you believe it to be true??? Which one??? or Both???

Primarily to make the point.

Yes, there are difference in between yours, mine, Backlit's etc beliefs on here. Some of them on pretty major topics. But lobbing accusations around brings no one to Christ. And if anyone wants to egotistically condemn another for those difference, then by the same logic that accuser should likewise be condemned.

AMEN - so let us love one another in Christ and not in religion where there is only pointing of fingers.

Note: when you are yourself are pointing fingers endorse/"like" Backlit's or Truth7t7's doing so.

When we share truth about the false doctrines that come from man-made religions, we nourish our spirits with Truth.

We are ONLY Sanctified by TRUTH - John chapter 17

I feel like you've completely missed my point...
Do I need to accuse you of worshipping a false Christ for all the beliefs you hold that I find to be completely unbiblical and man-made? Should you thank me for accusing you and judging you as a cultist?

If not, then you should not do that exact same thing yourself, or endorse those that do.

Matthew 7:1-2: "Judge not, that ye be not judged. For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again."

What for? Do you intend to repent? I doubt that! Rather, I see you rushing to defend your beliefs, digging into the trenches, and trying to throw grenades at the 'enemy'. That's just how people work.

If you accuse, you yourself cannot recuse.
