Re: New Christian

You did not show me any
scriptures where it was written, Jesus is God.

You quoted me an abundance of Bible passages
you claim are talking about Jesus being God.

We've shown you where the Bible says that Jesus and the Father are one. We've shown you where the Bible says that the Word is God and that the Word is Jesus; how much exegesis does it take to realize what that means? We've shown you where the Bible says that Thomas addressed Jesus as "my God"; why didn't Jesus correct him?

I showed you a
scripture were it is written
that Jesus is the Son of the Living God.

Then clearly, He's both.

And I showed you were the bible says that God is greater than Jesus. Therefore being one with someone else, does not mean you are them.

Re: New Christian

You showed me where the bible says the Word is God.
You did not show me a scripture were it is
written the Word is Jesus.

Yes, I did.

And who is the Word? That's right: The Word is Jesus Christ:

[John 1:14-17 KJV] 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. 15 John bare witness of him, and cried, saying, This was he of whom I spake, He that cometh after me is preferred before me: for he was before me. 16 And of his fulness have all we received, and grace for grace. 17 For the law was given by Moses, [but] grace and truth came by Jesus Christ.

Re: New Christian

Yes, I did.

No where in what you quoted me is it written, the Word is Jesus Christ. It is written, grace and truth came by Jesus Christ. Therefore Jesus Christ is not the Word and the Word is not Jesus Christ. If grace and truth had come by the Word, then it would have been written grace and truth came by the Word. But it was not. I read the scriptures word for word as it is written and believe it word for word as it is written. You read into the scriptures that which you believe is written.

Then to whom does this refer?

[John 1:15-16 KJV] 15 John bare witness of him, and cried, saying, This was he of whom I spake, He that cometh after me is preferred before me: for he was before me. 16 And of his fulness have all we received, and grace for grace.

No, he did not. Jesus told him to
Reach hither thy finger, and behold my hands; and reach hither thy hand, and thrust it into my side: and be not faithless, but believing.

And he was so amazed he exclaimed " My Lord and my God".

Have we not all done that?

So Thomas took the Lord's name in vain, and Jesus had nothing to say about it?

Jesus had this to say about it.

Jesus saith unto him, Thomas, because thou hast seen me,
thou hast believed: blessed are they that have not seen,
and yet have believed.

Re: New Christian

That's not what the verse immediately before that passage says.

Jesus had this to say about it.

Jesus saith unto him, Thomas, because thou hast seen me,
thou hast believed: blessed are they that have not seen,
and yet have believed.

That is completely nonresponsive to my question.

That's amazing! That's my favorite scripture! I have it in my signature. My nephew, who knows about computers, helped me put it there. I also have a sister but she never visits.

Do you also know Matthew 12:32 and Mark 3:29? I find those the scariest of the entire Bible. It says that if you say bad things about the Holy Spirit you will be damned forever. That is a long time. And Jesus will never forgive you for doing that. So I am always scared that I will do that by accident. Because Jesus forgives rape and murder, but not insulting the Holy Spirit. Have you ever done that?

I was wondering, are you a moderator on the forum called Rapture forums?

Why are you accusing me of ducking your questions?
