,,oh boy! Racoons think they know everthing.,,he was born of Mary...and its a very common phase 4 Jesus.And Gen 6:6 It repented the lord that he made man
Mankind . And Jesus was born of David’s line which is where the phrase son of man originated David’s son would sit on the throne forever and rule forever from one end of earth to the other
Christ being born was the fulfillment of the ot prophecies regarding the son of man

“Sin” is an archery term. It’s a term of art. It literally means “to miss the mark”. God did not create “sin”, He establishes the standard by which the behaviors and hearts of men are judged. At one time the standard was the Law. Now, the standard is the Son who “only does what He sees His Father doing”. Any change in standard is clearly communicated to the spirits of men.
Hebrews 12:23,24 “..23 to the general assembly and church of the firstborn who are registered in heaven, to God the Judge of all, to the spirits of just men made perfect, 24 to Jesus the Mediator of the new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling that speaks better things than that of Abel.”

“And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth all men every where to repent:
Because he hath appointed a day, in the which he will judge the world in righteousness by that man whom he hath ordained; whereof he hath given assurance unto all men, in that he hath raised him from the dead.”
Acts 17:30-31

The truth must really hurt you. Well like they say if you can't stand the heat get out of the kitchen.
When you preach two Gods you preach heresy and should be shunned. You claim to preach the word of God then you will be judged by it and you are found wanting.
I would feel sorry for you except you have been shown the error of your ways and still refuse to repent. Your end has been foretold. Lest you think I am the one that judges you, no it is not me it is God. You have thrown His name under the bus and you feel no shame.
How dare you call yourself a preacher of Gods' word.

Must admit never had someone tell me that B4. Wonder what "TBH" means? But at the least I am good for something.
I looked it up...'to be honest'
to be honest, he sounds like some kind of 'holiness' adherent, perennially walking around with a dark cloud over his head and a scowl
grrrrrr......

who was the serpent ? And what was his motive derived from ?
“How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations!
For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north:
I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High.
Yet thou shalt be brought down to hell, to the sides of the pit.”
Isaiah 14:12-15 KJV
“And he said unto them, I beheld Satan as lightning fall from heaven.”
Luke 10:18 KJV
“And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.”
Revelation 12:9 KJV
It was pride that caused creations fall
His pride and why this was created for him who is himself the deceiver and not deceived
“Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels:”
Matthew 25:41 KJV
he wasn’t deceived by another he was given glory and became proud and deceived the angels and deceived men still today but his lot is already cast and his end is sure for his deception
“He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.”
1 John 3:8 KJV
he wasn’t deceived he is the deceiver and who we need salvation from

Thanks for sharing the scripture to back up your position. However I still do not understand how God did not create sin because nothing that exists does so that He did not create. Can this be something that the logical mind can actually understand or is this something that falls into the category of believing by faith only?
Perhaps this will help.
What you should understand is that sin is not a thing, it is an attitude. It is a state of mind.
I love my wife but I can not pack some of my love for her in a box as a gift but it is real none the less. We can say the same for your faith, you can not feel it or even give it away to help someone believe.
God did not create sin, it is an attitude of I will do it my own way, I know what's best for me.
Sin is the absence of the good.

this created sin
“And the Lord God commanded the man, saying, Of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat: But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die.”
Genesis 2:16-17 KJV
“And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die: For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil. And when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to make one wise, she took of the fruit thereof, and did eat, and gave also unto her husband with her; and he did eat.”
Genesis 3:4-6
you then from thier first born son see the entrance of sin into the world
“And the Lord said unto Cain, Why art thou wroth? and why is thy countenance fallen? If thou doest well, shalt thou not be accepted? and if thou doest not well, sin lieth at the door. And unto thee shall be his desire, and thou shalt rule over him.”
Genesis 4:6-7
remember man was created in Gods image and given dominion over all the earth ? Man created sin by transgressing what sin is rooted in is the conflict between good and evil now it has gotten into man Cain was approached by sin outside of him ot was seeking to overcome man at that point and it did now we’re stuck here in the snare the knowledge of good and evil caused this
“I find then a law, that, when I would do good, evil is present with me.
But I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin which is in my members.”
Romans 7:21, 23 KJV
it has infiltrated us changed us from what God created us for very good creations into those who are conflicted by good and evil within our hearts and minds and bodies.
man created sin , God gave us freedom And dominion and Satan exploited it to create the great divide between God and man so he could rule for a time on earth through mans evil inclinations
God created mankind , mankind then created sin through transgression and brought death to Man
“Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:”
Romans 5:12 KJV
( that’s why we need Christs passover)
the law came about 1500 years or more afterwards to reveal to Man thier sin and impute it upon man
“Now we know that what things soever the law saith, it saith to them who are under the law: that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may become guilty before God.
Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified in his sight: for by the law is the knowledge of sin.”
Romans 3:19-20 KJV
because we knew both good and evil we became ignorant of good without evil ( holiness) the image of God
sin began with Adam but the law didn’t come until much later as a response to sin it wasn’t imputed before the law so Cain wasn’t killed for his sin , Abraham wasn’t credited with his lies ect because where there was no law , sin cannot be imputed
“(For until the law sin was in the world: but sin is not imputed when there is no law.”
Romans 5:13 KJV
The law came to expose sin To mankind and impute it to us to prepare the world for repentance and remission of sins through Christ the only way of salvstion because all are plagued with the curse we created of sin and subsequent death
Gods work has always been to keep us from sin and death but being made free , and not slaves …..we keep transgressing his word of life like adam
And Eve did , like Cain did , like israel did , like men continue to do because we won’t accept the circumcision of Christ that does this
“Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death?
Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life.
Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin.
For he that is dead is freed from sin.
Now if we be dead with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with him: Likewise reckon ye also yourselves to be dead indeed unto sin, but alive unto God through Jesus Christ our Lord. Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body, that ye should obey it in the lusts thereof.”
Romans 6:3-4, 6-8, 11-12 KJV
It seems impossible until we believe but he is able to end sins dominion in us and over us not only take the punishment for our sins but free us from it so we can walk upright through faith created by the gospel
There was no attack on this thread or anyone. Simply put, I deemed most of the responses as superficial. Perhaps you don't know the definition of this word.
Superficial - Existing on the surface of something or to believe is true until proper examination.
My attempt was, to get others to think more deeply upon the subject. The fact that you took it personally, is interesting in itself. Perhaps when you mature, you will learn the art of conversation. Meaningful conversation is the exchange of ideas - not a childish tantrum, when one disagrees with your view.
