He might have. What is your opinion about it? And who pray tell teaches what Jesus taught -- in modern times?lforrest said:Didn't Jesus already answer this question?
Who was Jesus instructing in John 14 ??TheWordOfKnowledge said:John, Chapter 14, 21: He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him.
John, Chapter 14, 12: Verily, verily, I say unto you,
He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also;
and greater works than these shall he do;
because I go unto my Father.
I will take on all comers.
Let's debate!
It is revealed in scripture, that people who love Jesus should obey his commandments. The most important commandment is to love God, and the second is to love neighbor, but there are other commandments Jesus has given. Jesus has revealed that acts of love towards your neighbor can be counted towards your Love for God. Love of God must come first though, especially when forced to choose between him and others.nothead said:He might have. What is your opinion about it?

And what excuse do we have when we do not? And what does Trinity have to do with the One True God?
Forest you missed the first premise of the First Command. Mark 12:lforrest said:It is revealed in scripture, that people who love Jesus should obey his commandments. The most important commandment is to love God, and the second is to love neighbor, but there are other commandments Jesus has given. Jesus has revealed that acts of love towards your neighbor can be counted towards your Love for God. Love of God must come first though, especially when forced to choose between him and others.
He asks that we do the will of his father in heaven, which is to obey the commandments of Jesus for one, and the leading of the Holy Spirit. People have many excuses when they fail to do the will of God, lets allow Jesus to be the Judge.
What does the Holy Trinity have to do with this topic?
Wong again Meestah Wong. You wong alot, maybe you Chinese?lforrest said:You were asking for commandments, not statutes. The difference is statutes include declarations, which is what Jesus was making there in the 29th verse.
Do you think the orthodox Christians believe there is more than one God, and ignore the commandment? We do not ignore the commandment, but take it at it's full meaning.
"For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one."
Were your own meditations on the nature of God equally serious?nothead said:Wong again Meestah Wong. You wong alot, maybe you Chinese?
I got a million of 'em. My Chinese wife tells them to me.
Jesus called it a command when he listed it and the other command of Shema as the first command. Hint: The Word was originally FOR COMMAND when it started, even regarding the stories it told in Jewish history. God's communication to us STARTED as Command, not a bunch of sweet nothings, sir.
Two Wongs don't make a White. Originally said to his wife regarding the Caucasian mailman. But also applicable to our situation sir.lforrest said:Were your own meditations on the nature of God equally serious?

with Him at all times. The Holy Ghost dwells with in me.
Wong. He speaking of people, not commandments. A speck will never be a log, dear.TheWordOfKnowledge said:Matthew, Chapter 19, 30:
But many that are first shall be last; and the last shall be first.

We cannot hear you no-head; as you are discredited by your heretical Trinity views!!!nothead said:Wong. He speaking of people, not commandments. A speck will never be a log, dear.
Can somebody interpret that for meTheWordOfKnowledge said:I did not take them to raise.
I think Arnie that is "mystic speak"; which many women in particular in the Pentecostal / Charismatic movement use to get attention!Arnie Manitoba said:Can somebody interpret that for me
Sounded cool to me. Kind of woodsey. Kind of old-timey. "I did not take them to raise."Floyd said:I think Arnie that is "mystic speak"; which many women in particular in the Pentecostal / Charismatic movement use to get attention!
Floyd.
Ahh; a self appointed shaman!TheWordOfKnowledge said:Thank you for pointing this out to me.
You have the faith to make a mountain out of a mole hill?
I am afraid anytime I answer a question for you, it will only lead you to another one.
Somewhere along the way you are going to have to find a place on the specrtum of knoledge and
start from there building on the foundation of truth.
If you must ask me a question. Ask one that will make you more wise than you were,
before I gave you the answer.
Thank you for pointing this out to me.

Now I know it.TheWordOfKnowledge said:My God, make all my adversaries as wise and Holy as this one. amen
If being disrespectful is the only way you can contend.
You will have to find someone that is more disrespectful than you to ever win.
I would have said this to Floyd but I know he would not comprehend it.
