Aften1 Yes he did, he understood authority and believed Jesus had the authority to heal his servant. EdB |

You have spoken true EdB. What is remarkable is that Jesus gave the Centurion such a great compliment on the issue of Faith. Christianity is one good road to Father (the Truth) but not the only road (journey) to Father. All the great religions of the world say the same thing - it is better to be a good person than a bad one. All of the great religions of the world have an end times story - judgement day. |

So, all the great religions of the world say the same thing (you say). But that's hardly what the Lord Jesus Christ said: "I am THE way, THE truth, and THE life. No one comes to the Father except through Me." [John 14:6]. You wrote: "Christianity is one good road to Father, but not the only road." So who speaks with more authority and whom shall we believe: You or Christ? --Hank | ||||||

OH Hank I forgot Jesus said Christianity was the only way. You know Jesus incarnated as man once. He has the ability to incarnate as man more than once. Take a look at the Seven Angels of the churches in Revelations - they to walk as man upon the Earth in service to Father for your benefit. I do not ask for your believe. The words Jesus spoke (as you wrote them) say what the say - show me the verse in the Bible. Any way I see no commdenation of other religions by Jesus. And the Son would not - because he is not a bigot (one who is not intolerant of others). Like the Jews for instance. Hows that fer proof? HUH:) |

Aften1, Here is the bible verse that Hank gave you: John 14 6Jesus said to him, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me. Christ and His disciples were all Jews. But read what Paul said of his former jewish religion of Pharisis: Philippians 3 3For we are the circumcision, who worship God in the Spirit,[1] rejoice in Christ Jesus, and have no confidence in the flesh, 4though I also might have confidence in the flesh. If anyone else thinks he may have confidence in the flesh, I more so: 5circumcised the eighth day, of the stock of Israel, of the tribe of Benjamin, a Hebrew of the Hebrews; concerning the law, a Pharisee; 6concerning zeal, persecuting the church; concerning the righteousness which is in the law, blameless. 7But what things were gain to me, these I have counted loss for Christ. 8Yet indeed I also count all things loss for the excellence of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord, for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and count them as rubbish, that I may gain Christ Aften1, are you a Christian?

Well done Pastor Glenn: Notice in Revelation 21:22 the Lord God Almighty is spoken of , also the Lamb. These are two different personalities. Immanuel and Jesus are spoken of here. Revelation 21:22 And I saw no temple therein: for the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are the temple of it. Also as an after thought notice in Rev15 song of Moses, song of the Lamb and the Praise given to the Lord God Almighty. Revelation 15 3 And they sing the song of Moses the servant of God, and the song of the Lamb, saying, Great and marvellous are thy works, Lord God Almighty; just and true are thy ways, thou King of saints. There is only on verse in the KJV of the Bible where the word Omnipotent appears. This would be the Creator Father - Father of Immanuel and by extension Jesus for all are one. And that verse is Rev 19:6 Revelation 19:6 And I heard as it were the voice of a great multitude, and as the voice of many waters, and as the voice of mighty thunderings, saying, Alleluia: for the Lord God omnipotent reigneth. As to your question: Am I Christian? I stand in service to Father and the honor is mine. |

Aften1, You said, "Am I Christian? I stand in service to Father and the honor is mine." Well, you must accept Christ before you serve the Father. God requires total perfection. This can be achieved only by receiving the rightiousness of Christ: Ezekiel 33:13 When I say to the righteous that he shall surely live, but he trusts in his own righteousness and commits iniquity, none of his righteous works shall be remembered; but because of the iniquity that he has committed, he shall die. Luke 18 9 Also He spoke this parable to some who trusted in themselves that they were righteous, and despised others: 10"Two men went up to the temple to pray, one a Pharisee and the other a tax collector. 11The Pharisee stood and prayed thus with himself, "God, I thank You that I am not like other men--extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even as this tax collector. 12I fast twice a week; I give tithes of all that I possess.' 13And the tax collector, standing afar off, would not so much as raise his eyes to heaven, but beat his breast, saying, "God, be merciful to me a sinner!' 14I tell you, this man went down to his house justified rather than the other; for everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted." We need the pardon that only comes from Jesus: Isaiah 55 7Let the wicked forsake his way, And the unrighteous man his thoughts; Let him return to the LORD, And He will have mercy on him; And to our God, For He will abundantly pardon.

Pastor Glenn, I will take a look at the word Christ in the Bible. You have not provided a verse in the Bible that says one must accept Christ before they can serve Father. I suspect the word Christ is a title and a licence of some sort given by God to the Son. Also Jesus the Christ never lays claim to being God. Jesus says that he is the Son of God. Now show me a verse were Jesus lays claim to be God? You will not because he is Immanuels Son ... Son of God. Not to worry because Immanuel came unto his own (incarnate Angels on Earth) and his own received him not, but has many that did receive him he gave them the power to be Sons of God (Paraphrased verse because I did not look it up). However as I have tried to inform you Immanuels name (God is with us) is the only begotten of Father. Look at the verses below - I told you I am here to speak the truth. John 1:14 And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth. John 1:18 No man hath seen God at any time, the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, he hath declared him. John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. (Whole Chapter: John 3 In context: John 3:15-17) John 3:18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. (Whole Chapter: John 3 In context: John 3:15-17) John 3:18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. (Whole Chapter: John 3 In context: John 3:17-19) |

Aften1, You said, "You have not provided a verse in the Bible that says one must accept Christ before they can serve Father." 1 John 2 22Who is a liar but he who denies that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist who denies the Father and the Son. 23Whoever denies the Son does not have the Father either; he who acknowledges the Son has the Father also. 1 John 4 1 Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits, whether they are of God; because many false prophets have gone out into the world. 2By this you know the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is of God, 3and every spirit that does not confess that[1] Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is not of God. And this is the spirit of the Antichrist, which you have heard was coming, and is now already in the world. You said, "Now show me a verse were Jesus lays claim to be God? You will not because he is Immanuels Son ... Son of God. Not to worry because Immanuel came unto his own (incarnate Angels on Earth)..." Immanuel is Jesus. The Father is not Immanuel. I already posted scriptures where Jesus claimed to be God. Here they are again: Mark 14 61But He kept silent and answered nothing. Again the high priest asked Him, saying to Him, "Are You the Christ, the Son of the Blessed?" 62Jesus said, "I am. And you will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of the Power, and coming with the clouds of heaven." 63Then the high priest tore his clothes and said, "What further need do we have of witnesses? 64You have heard the blasphemy! What do you think?" You do indeed need to understand "Christ" the Massiah, the promised One of Israel. Hebrews 11 13 These all died in faith, not having received the promises, but having seen them afar off were assured of them,[3] embraced them and confessed that they were strangers and pilgrims on the earth. John 8:56 Your father Abraham rejoiced to see My day, and he saw it and was glad." Pastor Glenn |
