Bible Note: Greetings Sisterkath! Well, I tried to show you the truth about Jesus. Yet, you can't even begin to acknowledge the truth about Jesus if you won't even accept the clear statement of Jehovah that there are no other gods but Him (Is. 43:10) and others. Nothing you mentioned in your posts rules out Jesus being part of the Godhead. As I've already explained, during the incarnation, Jesus became a man. As a man, He was subject to His father, born, limited in space and time, ect.... However, John 1:1 (and other verses) indicates that this was not His eternal nature. In His eternal nature, He was God, Savior, and Creator. You never did answer me my friend how Jesus could be described as God, Savior, and Creator, when Jehovah Himself said that there is: No other god, no other Savior, and that He created all things. So, you can accept Jehovah's statements as true, or you can accept the false teachings of the so-called Jehovah's Witnesses. But, both cannot be true! Unfortunately, it sounds like you have totally bought into the lies of the JW's and have called Jehovah a lier. :-( Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |
