1 | Why not Baptize as Jesus said to? | Acts 19:5 | Taleb | 108156 | ||
Natasha, THERE IS One God, not three IS WHAT we who believe what Scripture says about “the One God”. You stated “I know who the father is I know who the son is and I know who the Holy Ghost” is.” Then you added, “IT IS JESUS”. You declared “this verse says he was given a name above every name” (Phil 2:10). Jesus was highly exalted and given a name which is above all names, BY WHOM? Himself? It plainly and matter-of-factly declares – “GOD exalted Him (Jesus) and gave Him (Jesus) a name above all names.: Why did GOD highly exalt His Son is explained in the verses before. Phil 2:6-9 “Though Jesus possessed the nature of God, He did not grasp at EQUALITY WITH GOD, but laid it aside to take on the nature of a slave and became like other men. When He had assumed human form, Jesus still humbled Himself and carried His obedience so far as to die, and to die upon the cross. THAT IS WHY GOD has so greatly exalted Him”. Now you have an answer to your question. (Why would "the father" exalt his "son" above himself???? or above the "Holy Ghost"??????) It was RIGHT in front of your eyes, had you only searched for the truth. IT DOESN”T say what you wished it said – “Because Jesus obeyed Himself and went to the cross to die as a man, He rewarded Himself by exalting Himself and giving Himself a name above all names.” Numerous Scriptures explain what you are failing to accept. To borrow another quote of yours – “As we learned today in church that when you begin to disprove something that people have believed for a long time, alot of them don't like it”. True. Very true. A test of what you really learned - can you receive the truth of His word. John 16:5-7 “But now I am going back TO THE FATHER WHO SENT ME, and none of you asks me where I am going. You are very sad from hearing all of this. But I tell you that I am going to do what is best for you. That is why I am going away. The HOLY SPIRIT CANNOT COME TO YOU UNTIL I LEAVE. But after I AM GONE, I will send the Spirit to you.” You apparently think this states – “I came here on my own initiative. Now I am going away, so I can send Myself back to you. I can’t come until I’m not here anymore.” It gets better, the deeper into chapter 16 you read. Such as, “The Holy Spirit will show you what is true, and will come and guide you into full truth. The Spirit doesn’t speak of Himself. He will only tell you what He heard from Me”. It really isn’t what you think, or hope. It really IS what THEIR word declares. The one true God really is – ONE. Perhaps it will help you to understand by recalling the verse: “And the two shall become ONE” - like my wife and I are one. Like my wife, daughter, grandchildren and I are one. And this is our prayer for you too. Taleb P.S. John 14:28b “…you should be glad I (Jesus) am going back to my Father, because He IS GREATER THAN I AM.” The Father IS greater. Jesus, His Son is exalted! |

2 | Why not Baptize as Jesus said to? | Acts 19:5 | punkiedo | 108452 | ||
Taleb, I apologize for not responding in a timely maner as I have not been feeling well since Sunday. I do have an answer for you. First of all I would like to write you a check for 50,000,000.00. And I am going to sign it Grandaughter, daughter, and sister. According to your belief the bank should cash it for you because I have signed what I am, but that's not the case is it??? That is not my name those are titles. Secondly, you and your wife are 1 person? Interesting. So she can sign your name anytime she feels like it? Or you can sign her name? hmm...you are still 2 people. Jesus said I AND MY FATHER ARE ONE. then followed it up by saying he came in his fathers name and even took it a step farther when he said the comforter (being the holy ghost) would be sent in HIS NAME. JESUS IS THE FATHER AND THE SON AND THE HOLY GHOST. Isa 42:8 I am the LORD: that is my name: and my glory will I not give to another, neither my praise to graven images. Isa 48:11 For mine own sake, even for mine own sake, will I do it: for how should my name be polluted? and I will not give my glory unto another. Why would God allow someone else to have his glory?Mat 11:27 All things are delivered unto me of my Father: and no man knoweth the Son, but the Father; neither knoweth any man the Father, save the Son, and he to whomsoever the Son will reveal him. In other words no matter what I say or do you will never know the truth unless God reveals it to you. And John 1:3 All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. John 1:4 In him was life; and the life was the light of men. John 1:5 And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not. So I will pray for the divine revelation to you and all on this website. Jesus is God. And my final PROOF. Isa 52:10 The LORD hath made bare his holy arm in the eyes of all the nations; and all the ends of the earth shall see the salvation of our God. Isa 43:11 I, even I, am the LORD; and beside me there is no saviour. Isa 43:12 I have declared, and have saved, and I have showed, when there was no strange god among you: therefore ye are my witnesses, saith the LORD, that I am God. Isa 43:13 Yea, before the day was I am he; and there is none that can deliver out of my hand: I will work, and who shall let it? Hosea 13:4 Yet I am the LORD thy God from the land of Egypt, and thou shalt know no god but me: for there is no saviour beside me.James 2:19 Thou believest that there is one God; thou doest well: the devils also believe, and tremble. 2 Pet 3:18 But grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and for ever. Amen. 1 John 4:14 And we have seen and do testify that the Father sent the Son to be the Saviour of the world. Jesus Was called the SAVIOUR of the world. And God said beside me there is no saviour. When we first began this discussion you people said there was three different beings. Then you say there is one but three. Well Jesus is God. I heard it explained in a wonderful way he was the father in creation, the son in redemption and the holy ghost in regeneration. Jesus is the ONE TRUE AND ONLY GOD. Col 2:8 Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ. Col 2:9 For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily. Col 2:10 And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power: So on that note, my friends, I REST MY CASE. If you still have a problem with it take it to the creator. The one true living God whose name is JESUS. BTW Taleb that scripture Phil 2:6 Who, being in the form (Greek definitiion form- morph or nature)of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: Phil 2:7 But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form (Greek definitiion form- morph or nature)of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: Phil 2:8 And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross. Phil 2:9 Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: Phil 2:10 That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; Phil 2:11 And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord(Greek definition- Lord-Theos- GOD), to the glory of God the Father. If you chose to remain in darkness, that is up to you. I have done all that I can to show you. The bible says that God has to reveal it. So...Good luck. |
