1 | God and gods? | Matt 11:11 | Morant61 | 123211 | ||
Greetings Ralph2! From your post, I take it that you are a Jehovah's witness. The entire doctrine of the JW's specifically contradicts Jehovah's own words. Consider this quote from another of my posts: ************************************ Because Jehovah's Witnesses are so set on avoiding the Biblical teaching that Jesus is God in the flesh, they have mistranslated John 1:1. But, in doing so, they have created a false doctrine which says that there is more than one God. Is. 43:10 is a clear statement. There isn't anything unclear about it. There isn't any controversy about it. It simply says that there are not any other gods. Jehovah is the only God. Now, John 1:1 says that Jesus is God. Therefore, Jesus must be Jehovah. Just out of curiosity, how does the NWT translate Is. 43:10? I also found it interesting the Is. 43:11 also says that there is no other savior. Yet, consider the following verses where Jesus is called our savior. Luke 2:11 - "Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is Christ the Lord." John 4:42 - "They said to the woman, ??We no longer believe just because of what you said; now we have heard for ourselves, and we know that this man really is the Savior of the world.?" Acts 5:31 - "God exalted him to his own right hand as Prince and Savior that he might give repentance and forgiveness of sins to Israel." There are more, but especially Titus 2:13 where we are informed that Jesus is both God and Savior. "while we wait for the blessed hope?the glorious appearing of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ," We can discuss later the relationship between God the Father and God the Son. But, the first step is to confront the fact that the NWT is teaching a false doctrine in John 1:1. Jesus cannot be another god in addition to Jehovah because Jehovah Himself said in Is. 43:10 that there are no other gods besides Him. So, my simple question to you my friend is this: Did He or did He not say in Is. 43:10 that there is no other god besides Him? If He did, then how can Jesus be another god? ************************************* I would urge you to get away from these false teachings my friend! Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran Those on this forum do not accept the teachings of this cult. |

Faith is not a possession of all men. The nation of Israel, as a whole, lacked faith by putting their trust in nobles, alliances with pagan nations, and even false gods. Christendom today was aptly prefigured by faithless Jews that abandoned the very God that bought them with a price from bondage to Egypt. The price God has paid with the blood of his son far outweighs his prior generosity, and I hope you will not follow the path of the majority that say "Lord, Lord" but do not do the will of the Father. You must have faith that God's Kingdom will come, His will is going to be done on earth soon. Sincerely. |

So now my curiostiy is aroused by reading all these posts, yours, Tim's and others. Do you or do you not acknowledge and confirm the full deity of Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior of this world in whom is the ONLY way of getting out of this world and go Home to Heaven? Simple question? Simple answer needed? I pray that you can answer and come on Home to your Father in Heaven. God bless. --Rowdy |

I believe just as the inspired word of God states, Jesus reflected the glory of the invisible God to the fullest extent that a perfect man could, the way that Adam was created to do. Jesus proved Satan a liar, vindicated God's sovereignty, and shared in the sanctification of his holy name by his sinless life. Secondarily, he bought us back from the slavery to sin that Adam sold us, so that all those following his steps closely can have the life God purposed for Adam and his offspring. Of course, now Jesus sits at the right hand of God and has been given all authority on heaven and earth until the Messianic Kingdom brings to nothing all of God's enemies. Then he will give that authority back to its rightful owner, the Almighty Jehovah God, and continue subject to his Creator as the perfect example of faith and love through his perfect obedience. I hope this doesn't offend anyone. I know my head Jesus would approve as he takes the lead by his submission to his head, God. |
