1 | "Jehovah Rophe - our Lord and Healer"??? | Ex 15:26 | srbaegon | 29018 | ||
Correction................................. You said "He is the Son of Man but also the Holy Spirit, God with us." That's not quite correct. Jesus Christ is not the Holy Spirit inasmuch as neither of them is the Father. Steve |

Hi srbaegon, I hear you, for this Trinity doctrine is difficult to express "correctly" or understand. However, this Luke 12 passage tells me that Jesus is God and I will not deny that truth. God is concerned with our spiritual inheritances and it is the Spirit that was approached by the man in regard to dividing the family inheritance. But Jesus (God) said to him "Man, who appointed Me a judge or arbiter over you?" In other words, Jesus is saying, "What has that got to do with Me? I am not your judge." Luke 12:5, "But I will warn you whom to fear: fear the One who after He has killed has authority to cast into hell; yes, I tell you, fear Him." So Jesus says to fear the one Spirit. Jesus is a Person of that one Spirit. And He says in verse 8, "...everyone who confesses Me before men, the Son of Man shall confess him also before the angels of God." I can not deny Him before men for then I would be blaspheming against the (Holy) Spirit. That would be blasphemy against God. The parentheses are mine for comparison and contrast of Persons but also to show Oneness. Matthew 12:32 talks about "speaking against the (Holy) Spirit" also. That is against this Son of David, this Man who casts out demons by the spirit of God. Mark 3:28, "Truly I say to you, all sins shall be forgiven the sons of men, and whatever blasphemies they utter; but whoever blasphemies against the (Holy) Spirit never has forgiveness, but is guilty of an eternal sin---because they were saying, 'He has an unclean spirit.'" This is blasphemy against the Spirit Himself. So, Steve, I would rather blaspheme and say that Jesus was not a son of man than to deny that He is God, who is Spirit. Later, Ray |

Partial agreement..................... I understand, now, how you were using "Spirit." There is no disagreement that "God is spirit," however I would still shy away from using it the way you have for fear of confusion (mine being a case in point). Lastly, let's not blaspheme either direction. :-) We'll both stay on a better path. Steve |
