No, I said there is no mention of begotten in the text of John 1:1-2 SonJudgment said: The principle verses are from John 1, though indeed there are others, some of which have already been posted, praise Jesus. John 1:1-2 1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word...

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. Jon wrote this after Jesu had been resurrected and glorified, and and they beheld His glory as He appeared to the disciples for forty...

Yes. The Person who became Jesus of Nazareth (a liitle lower than the angels) has been ever-existing. He had no beginning, so cannot have been begotten in eternity past. The human being Jesus of Nazareth died and was begotten from the dead, and is the only one so far begotten from the dead, and...

There is no mention of the Word being begotten in that text.

Acts 13:33 also agrees with this - "God hath fulfilled the same unto us their children, in that he hath raised up Jesus again; as it is also written in the second psalm, Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee."

There seems to be no Biblical evidence that Jesus is eternally begotten. "This day I have begotten you" means there was a day/ a time. when Jesus was begotten. Rev. 1 says Jesus was first-begotten out from the dead. Ps. 2 links "This day I have begotten you" to the time Jesus was set as King...

This seems to be a pointless debate. How does any deduced answer make its propounder more Christ-like, which is the purpose of the Gospel. My own theory is that in the millenium resurrected descendants of Jacob will be given dominion over the geographical area defined by Ezekiel, and King David...

No, Israel is still blind in part.

The word the prophet used is Hebrew: "DaViD". It is not necessarily used as a name, but can be an adjective. You are assuming it was meant as a name in every case you listed.

No. But Paul's meaning is ambiguous. He could be saying that the fullness of the Jews will be come in at the same time as the fulness of the Gentiles are come in. Or he could be saying that the fullness of the Jews will not be come in until after the fulness of the Gentiles are come in. I don't...

David means beloved, There are are two different people mentioned. David, the servant of Yahweh and son of Jesse, God's beloved servant ( Ez. 34:24) And a beloved one (david/daviyd), who is Jesus the Son of Yahweh and Son of Mary, God's "beloved Son" ( Jer. 30:9; Hos. 3:5; Ez. 34:23; Ez. 37:22...

That's partly what Matthew 10 and 28 seem to be saying: that the twelve were to teach converts to do that, among many other things that Jesus also commanded them to do.

A light came on recently as I was reading Matt. 10. We should meditate on Jesus' instructions to the twelve. What was their message? "The kingdom of heaven is at hand, repent and believe the good news. The king of the kingdom is already among us." Who did they share that message with? Sons...

On what basis have you concluded that "Christ was unconcerned with the political system He lived under"? Before incarnating, the Son was very concerned about and involved in politics, raising up rulers and bringing down rulers. Jesus used his right to free speech to scathingly criticised the...

The Greek word for "that which is perfect" is "to teleion". It is a neuter substantive adjective (the perfect) referring to either some neuter gender word gleaned from context, or some phrase or idea implied by the context. What does the adjective "teleios -on" refer to in 1 Corinthians? 1...

What's two years in an endless life?

Do you see Jesus face to face, now that you claim that that which is perfect has already come?

The Holy Spirit through Paul says th Corinthian Christians were carnal. In order to defend your religion, you are accusing the Holy Spirit of inspiring Paul to spout oxymorons, i.e. contradictions. I have good news for you. You can agree with scripture and have a deep abiding communion with...

No. You can have unity without agreeing on one interpretation of scripture. It is largely the quest to settle on one interpretation of scripture that causes disunity. Epistemic humility , acknowledging that we know only in part (1 Cor. 13:9, 12) , and that if anyone thinks he knows anything he...

Paul told his brethren they were carnal. What is the mark of a carnal Christian, Rufus?
