1 | THE CROSS | John 3:16 | Morant61 | 88015 | ||
Greetings JibbyJee! I agree with everything you say my friend until you get to the part about Christ not dying for all! ;-) You asked: " Now as far as a verse that specifically uses the exact phrase you demand, you're right is saying it doesn't exist. But that doesn't mean the doctrine is not implied by the whole text of Scripture. For example, the word "Trinity" is not found in the Bible. Do you believe in the Trinity? Why?" The word 'Trinity' is a label identifying a particular belief. The belief is that there is only One God, but three distinct Person who are that one God. There are plenty of verses which specifically say that there is only one God. There are also plenty of verses which say that Jesus is God and that the Holy Spirit is God. That is why I believe in the Trinity. So, the comparison doesn't work. There isn't any verse which says that Christ did not die for all men, but there are plenty of verses which say that He did. So, I'll stand on them my friend! Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |

2 | THE CROSS | John 3:16 | Truthfinder | 88022 | ||
Hi Tim, Yes, Tim I agree if Christ died for Manasseh (guilty of shedding innocent blood in great quantity) which he did, (2Ki 21:10-16) then he did indeed die for "all". I agree with you on your arguement here. But show me please a verse that says that God's active force or holy spirit is specifically Jesus. I thought Jesus' second coming was much later than pennecost of 33 C.E. John 14:26, "But the helper, the holy spirit, which the Father will send in my name, that one will teach YOU all things and bring back to YOUR minds all the things I told YOU. Honestly, I have never read/argued the point of the Holy Spirit being Jesus as God, but I believe I have a sound basis for believing the way I do, and certainly agree that any time and every time Almighty God Jehovah accomplishes/ed something, his active force had to have been involved. Sincerly. Truthfinder |

Greetings Truthfinder! Thanks for the kudo's on the other thread! :-) As you are probably well aware, I don't believe that the Holy Spirit is Jesus, nor do I believe that the Holy Spirit is simply God's active force. I believe that the Holy Spirit is the Third Person of the Trinty, and very God. As to the reasons why, I have posted on this topic many times before. Since I am very pressed for time, I would ask that you use the search feature my friend. Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |
