122 | is jesus god? | John 1:1 | mbooker | 56446 | ||
This is how I look at the question: God, the Father is father. Jesus, the Son is son of the Father. If the father is God, does that make his son God? Well, if my father is a Booker, that makes me a Booker. I'm not the most high Booker but I am a Booker none the less. Likewise, if Jesus's father is God (and he is), that makes him a God. Not The Most High God, but still a God. Just how I see it. :) If my view needs correcting, just bring on the correcting tool (the Word of God). blessings to you all... :) |

Hi BradK Not sure what you mean by 'what background am I' but I grew up in what I guess you would call a traditional baptist church. At the age of 24 (I think it was 24 :) ), I made my confession that Jesus is Lord and that I believed in my heart that God raised him from the dead. Since then, I've been growing up in Him. I wasn't really asking a question. I guess I was trying to express to anyone who may be a JW, that I don't put Jesus above God the Father (after talking with some JWs, I was left with the impression that they believe we place Jesus in a higher place than God the Father). I do believe Jesus Christ is God. And I do believe that God the Father and God the Son are one (John 10:30) and thus I believe in the diety of Christ. I hope my post does not sound as if I am disputing that or the truth that Jesus is God. I guess I was trying to make a distinction between God the Father and God the Son. Hope I satisfied your curiosity :) Abba Father bless and keep you... |

Thanks Estelle :) I will read over the scriptures you site. And I do believe Jesus and the Father are one (John 10:30). Not long after talking with the JWs about this, Heb. 1:7-9 was brought back to my memory and I said 'wait a minute. Even God call the Son God'. I went back and read and read it in context and even went to read it in Psalms. So we are both on the same page :) 'Finally, when you said snip(if Jesus's father is God (and he is), that makes him a God. Not The Most High God, but still a God), you're stating that God does in fact allow other gods to be worshipped besides Him.' After reading this, I see your point. I also see I should not have said 'a God', but just 'God'. That little a does change the meaning :)(at least to me). Thanks again for your post Abba Father bless you... :) |

125 | thanks hank | John 1:1 | mbooker | 56473 | ||
Thanks Hank I acknowledged my err in my post to roviear (Estelle) about the 'a God' and see that I should have typed just 'God' instead. Thanks for the correction. Abba Father Bless you... :) |

126 | Corrected post! sorry for err! | John 1:1 | mbooker | 56474 | ||
Correction ALERT!!! 'Likewise, if Jesus's father is God (and he is), that makes him God. Not The Most High God, but still God.' the 'a God' is corrected to 'God'. |

"How can you find out what God Requires" section, paragraph #3, -- "God made sure that the Bible was accurately copied and preserved." 'Then why was the New World Translation Bible needed?' hum... Very good point kalos |

:) Thanks Hank for your words of encouragement about my attitude. I humbly say 'thank you' and as I'm sure you already know, all the glory belongs to GOD. His Word is 'growing me up' :) I Peter 2:2 I want to understand the truth of God's word and I want the body of Christ to 'come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ:' Eph 4:13. And if I've err from the truth, I want to know and be corrected. Correction(chastening) may hurt the pride, but 'nevertheless afterward it yieldeth the peaceable fruit of righteousness unto them which are exercised thereby'. You gave me a GOOD laugh with 'You must be Southern, too; you have such genteel manners'. A merry heart does good like a medicine! If Florida is considered the south, then I guess I am southern :). Now, to answer your question. Am I still Baptist? I guess you could say that. :) I still go to a Baptist church. One thing I'm not clear on is where the different demonination came from. But I guess that would be another subject entirely! :) I'll go to my profile and add a bit about myself. I tend to come and go on this site, but I do look forward to dialoguing with you and my other brothers and sisters in Christ. Abba Father bless you and keep you. |

132 | Corrected post! sorry for err! | John 1:1 | mbooker | 56574 | ||
Thank Estelle I see exactly what you are saying about Jesus. I was just thinking about it this morning. And the fact that Jesus said he and the Father are one help to clarify that if they are one and Father is the Most High then so is Jesus because they are one. I also thought about 'Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name' (Phil 2:9). Abba Father bless you :) |

133 | is jesus god? | John 1:1 | mbooker | 56698 | ||
Estelle I must tell you... I have been pondering your words and they have, I believe, helped me. I can honestly say I have never look at Jesus as 'the Most High God'. I look at God the Father as Most High but I had never seen the Son in that light. Your words have aided me in seeing my Savior, the Son, as the Most High. thanks and Abba Father bless and keep you... :) |

134 | a Muslim arguement | John 1:3 | mbooker | 64090 | ||
I agree meusing. They must not have read and/or believed: John 1:14 And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth. John 1:18 No man hath seen God at any time, the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, he hath declared him. John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. John 3:18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. 1 John 3:8 He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil. 1 John 4:15 Whosoever shall confess that Jesus is the Son of God, God dwelleth in him, and he in God. 1 John 5:5 Who is he that overcometh the world, but he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God? 1 John 5:10 He that believeth on the Son of God hath the witness in himself: he that believeth not God hath made him a liar; because he believeth not the record that God gave of his Son. 1 John 5:20 And we know that the Son of God is come, and hath given us an understanding, that we may know him that is true, and we are in him that is true, even in his Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God, and eternal life. |

135 | Saved vs. Works (John 5:24 and 5:28-29) | John 5:24 | mbooker | 60757 | ||
Good Morning Brother John! I appreciate your statement 'We are saved by faith alone, but not by a faith that is alone' Just yesterday, I was thinking about what Paul said ('For by grace are we saved thru faith... not of works' Eph 2:8-9) vs what James said in Jam 2:18-22 Yea, a man may say, Thou hast faith, and I have works: shew me thy faith without thy works, and I will shew thee my faith by my works. Thou believest that there is one God; thou doest well: the devils also believe, and tremble. But wilt thou know, O vain man, that faith without works is dead? Was not Abraham our father justified by works, when he had offered Isaac his son upon the altar? Seest thou how faith wrought with his works, and by works was faith made perfect? And I came to the conclusion that a work is simply external evidence of our faith/what we believe. Again, I appreciate your statement. It was beautifully said and I think I'm going to remember it for a long time :). Abba Father Bless you... Meredith |

136 | Love Jesus before the Father loves me? | John 14:21 | mbooker | 56960 | ||
'whoever [really] loves Me will be loved by My Father' Can anyone expound to this part of the verse? Whenever I read it, I think 'OK. I have to keep Jesus' commands, then the Father will love me'. I can't reconciled this passage with John 3:16. 'For God so loved the world...'. And I John 4:10. 'Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins' thanks in advance to those who respond... |

139 | What day is 'that day'? | John 16:23 | mbooker | 73486 | ||
When Jesus said 'In that day', was 'that day' the time after his death, burial, resurrection and ascension? |

140 | How Did Simon Know - What Did He See | Acts 8:18 | mbooker | 76489 | ||
Now when the apostles which were at Jerusalem heard that Samaria had received the word of God, they sent unto them Peter and John: Who, when they were come down, prayed for them, that they might receive the Holy Ghost: (For as yet he was fallen upon none of them: only they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.) Then laid they their hands on them, and they received the Holy Ghost. And when Simon saw that through laying on of the apostles' hands the Holy Ghost was given, he offered them money, Acts 8:14-18 How did Simon know that the Hoily Ghost was given? What did he see? |
