1 | Question for you Both? | Bible general Archive 1 | Bro. Tom | 13560 | ||
Nolan, I appreciate your very freindly christian like response let me get one thing straight with you I believe that Jesus was the son of GOD. I also have to say with out Jesus I would not of had the chance to be saved.But, Jesus was not GOD eternal, no where in what you have stated to me thus far comes out and says Jesus was GOD. But, in plenty of areas it talks about his humanity. What I am trying to get across to you is Jesus had his own spirit. Do you believe there is a father and a son. Two! Iam not taking anything away from Jesus or GOD. All I am saying is we can live just like Jesus do you believe that? And, remember what I said GOD made Jesus God! So, I am not really sure what you are accusing me of. I would have to ask you to go back and answer my question's. Instead of sending me question's. I take it you don't believe Jesus had the same flesh you have? I am sorry Nolan we don't see eye to eye on this subject. But, a man that lack understanding let him ask GOD. I will not bother you an further. But, I pray that someone happens to stumble upon our conversation and GOD is able to remove the scales from their eyes! Love from above my brother, Bro. Tom |

2 | Question for you Both? | Bible general Archive 1 | Ray | 13585 | ||
Hi Bro. Tom, I would like to respond to some of the things that I hear and see you say, from the perspective of the "Capitalist" who is concerned with capitalization. The first thing that I see you say is that "I believe that Jesus was the son of God." Even the King James which I believe you use has Hebrews 4:14 speaking of Jesus the Son of God. This is the confession that we want to hold fast to as Christians. But using the NKJ and NASB versions that capitalize Deity, we can learn more of what Hebrews is saying. Hebrews 4:15, NKJ, "Seeing then that we have a great High Priest who has passed through the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our confession. For we do not have a High Priest who cannot sympathize with our weaknesses, but (One who, NASB)was in all points tempted as we are, yet without sin." By the time of the writing of Hebrews Jesus was known as the Son and His deity was believed in, and He was in a sense "perfected" in the same sense that capitalization shows His deity. Remember that Jesus is the only-begotten Son. He was begotten not made. Hebrews 1:5 says in part, "THOU ART MY SON, TODAY I HAVE BEGOTTEN THEE" And again, "I WILL BE A FATHER TO HIM AND HE SHALL BE A SON TO ME". The NKJ reads "You are My Son, Today I have begotten You" And again: "I will be to Him a Father, And He shall be to Me a Son." Please note the capitalization here of the Father and the Son. We as men are fathers and sons and I will never become a Son. Even as a believer I am an adopted son of God and I won't ever be perfect. I am just a man and I will never be the Man that Jesus was. Bro. Tom, you write that "Jesus had his own spirit." I believe that Jesus had His own spirit, but He gave it up on the cross." I have other thoughts to give you so I'll write them in your other post. Later, Ray |

Bro. Ray, I hope I did not come across as not giving honor to where honor is due. My dear Bro. "Ito believe that Jesus was the son of GOD" and hope that no one interpreted me saying any different than that. I just believe by what the bible says that we too can be perfected by GOD. Jesus himself said "Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in Heaven is perfect" (King James Version Matthew 5:48). My belief is the death, burial, and resurection, I believe in true holiness. I also believe what the bible says about being heirs and joint heirs with Christ (KJV Romans 8:17)"if so be that we suffer with him, that we may also be glorified together". I just believe that there is deeper depths and higher heights in GOD. I mean when I read in (KJV) Ephesians 5:27 I can envision that one day GOD's word will come to pass "That might present it to himself a glorious church,not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be HOLY and without blemish". You know Ray this might be just for me (but I doubt that very much because GOD's people are many). Iread over in Matthew 19:26 " But Jesus beheld them, aand said unto them, With men this is impossible; but with GOD ALL things are possible". Any references I make to scripture is straight out of the King James Version (this is the only bible I read, you know we used KJV for years so it still serves it's purpose for me). It's hard for me to read alot of the others because through the translation sometimes people put their own interpretation in it. I like the scripture in 1John2:27 reads "But the anointing which ye have recieved of him abideth in you, and ye need not that any man teach you: but as the same anointing teachethyou of all things,and is truth, and is no lie, and even as it hath taught you, ye shall abide in him". I enjoyed your e-mail Bro. Ray, hope to talk with you again soon. Your Brother in Christ, Bro. Tom |

Hi Bro. Tom, We are just getting to know each other so I have to tell you that my main interest is the Deity of Christ and getting to know the only true God. It is because of my interest in capitalization of the pronouns of Deity that I wondered about your belief in the son of God rather than the Son of God. I realize your preference for the King James and know that "it hath taught you" as 1John 2:27 says, but I would urge you to consider the NKJ and even more the NASB also so that you can receive more of His anointing which is "the same anointing." Even the anointing which "teaches you about all things, and is true, and is not a lie." I agree that we need repentance and the desire to lead holy lives for Him. Later, Ray |
