1 | who can explain to me? | John 1:1 | JCrichton | 120182 | ||
Hi, eveready2004! I really don't follow you... Your English grammar knowledge told you that it was impossible? You mean you have a problem with God's definition of who He is: "I Am"? (Exodus 3:14) You are your mother's son/daughter... when you lived with your mother were you not part of your mother and yet apart from your mother?: The Word was God and yet the Word was with God! God Bless! Angel |

2 | who can explain to me? | John 1:1 | eveready2004 | 120190 | ||
I do not understand your answer clearly . My understanding of this topic is listed below. 1. God is only one Almighty God, creator of the world. 2. The name of Almighty God is JEHOVAH, and I do not think his name or his title is Word. 3.'Word' was the pre-human existence of Jesus Christ. 4. According to your answer, I got two different points which listed below: 1)The relationship between 'the Word' and God is just like mother and son/daughter. 2)The Word was God and it is just like mother was son/daughter. Am I correct? by faith. |

"Am I correct?" Hi, eveready2004! I think that our misunderstanding comes from our defenition of God. You seek to find an Almighty God who is just as you picture Him. I seek to learn from God what He wishes me to understand. I do not divide God into demigods and super-god: I simply believe that when He says I AM--He is! When He says I am the Alpha and Omega--He is! When He says there's no other Savior beside me--there isn't! When He says I and the Father are One--They are! When He says I and the Father will dwell in you--He does, not as seperate units but as One! When He says that the Holy Spirit will dwell in you (not in the world because the world knows Him not)--He does, not as separate units of God but as One! You seemed to renounce God on the merit of your "grammar knowledge"--don't forget that the Jews are still waiting for a sign and that the Greeks--Gentiles--(immersed in their science) kept wanting to discover God in their math and philosophy; through neither way will humanity ever find God! Since you based your lack of acceptance on "grammar knowledge" I attempted to use an analogy that could be easily understood with grammar: you existed with your mother as a child and you also existed apart from your mother as a child. Though in the essence of divinity you and your mother cannot be one, the anology still stand: one can be with someone while still being part of that someone. Since God is Omnipotent and Omnipresent, He has the power to be God as Himself and with Himself. I know this is difficult to grasp, specially when one subscribes to denominational beliefs that are contrary to God's Word! Renew your mind and spirit, allow the Holy Spirit, who is God, to guide you into the Fold of the only Shepherd, who is God, and the only Lord, who is God, and the only Savior, who is God: If you love me you will keep my commandments. I shall ask the Father, and he will give you another Paraclete to be with you for ever, the Spirit of truth whom the world can never accept since it neither sees nor knows him; but you know him, because he is with you, he is in you. (John 14:15-17) Jesus replied: Anyone who loves me will keep my word, and my Father will love him, and we shall come to him and make a home in him. (John 14:23) These two passages are very precise; there is no room for error, misinterpretation, grammatical notation or theological babbling. God dwells in those who love Jesus! Not God and some demigods! Not God and His generals! Not God and His secretaries! Understanding the Bible is not a matter of science, grammar or human wisdom! (1 Corinthians 2:6-16) Understanding the Bible is a matter of Faith! Jesus says: you believe in God, the Father, believe also in Me! God is Spirit and true worshippers must worship in Spirit and in Truth!--these, of course, I paraphrased! Now, being that God is Spirit and completely Holy, and being that Yahweh has, in numerous occasions, stated that He will not share His Glory, how do you suppose that Jesus and the Holy Spirit could dwell with Yahweh in us? Humble yourself to God and He will exalt you! Ask Him for wisdom (spiritual wisdom) and the Holy Spirit can bestow upon you one grace upon another! God Bless! Angel |
