The short answer to your question is a resounding "NO." Your asking me to prove a negative and in logic this is known as an argument from silence which is an irrational question. I cannot demonstrate what God has "NOT DONE," No one can. For example, can you tell where in the book of Acts...

Let me make this whole issue of your understanding simple. Genesis 3:9 states, "Then the Lord God called to the man, and said where are you?" Now, don't you think the Lord knew where Adam was hiding because Adam realized he and Eve had sinned against God? In fact look at verse 7, "For the eyes...

And what I see is someone not really understanding God. So I will try it this way. Do you believe God is completely omniscient? That is He knows absolutely everything having perfect knowledge? This is a "yes or no" question? BTW, God has loved me for past 63 years of being a Christian. IN GOD...

I gave you the answer in in my very first sentence. Or to put it another way Abraham by asking him to sacrifice his son Isaac to demonstrate and strengthen Abraham's faith, not to gain new knowledge about him. Also, the test was meant to reveal the depth of Abraham's trust in God, proving his...

I think your making more out of this than is necessary! The simple answer is that God tested Abraham to see if he would take God's word over his own reason, thus proving that the sacrifice was already satisfied in Abraham's heart. Now I have a question for you? Genesis 22:11 says, "But the angel...

When I click on the ratings icon "like" it post like. However, a long white box opens up with the various icons and it immediately disappears when I want to post any of the other icons. What am I missing? IN GOD THE SON, bluto

You said this regarding the Roman Catholic Church: "They rejected the biblical mandate to water baptize individuals in the name of Jesus. And opted rather to insist on using the phrase Father, Son and Holy Ghost. " And for good reason. Matthew 28:19, "God therefore and make disciples of all...

I know all about sanctification etc. When you said, "But, it is not within my power to glorify or sanctify them." Your saying you do not have the "POWER" to glorify or sanctify them. In other words, that's not your job and I agree with you. IN GOD THE SON, bluto

For the most part I agree with you. That is praying with them and tell them to confess there sins and call upon the Lord Jesus Christ. I don't understand what you mean about these words of yours. "But, it is not within my power to glorify or sanctify them." Btw, I am not minister, just a layman...

You know, I don't know how old you are but what I do know is that your "Biblically" ignorant and I can prove it. Go to Acts 10:44-48. Vs44, "While Peter was still speaking these words, the Holy Spirit fell upon all those who were listening to the message. vs45, "And all the circumcised believers...

Ok, let's do this by the numbers. First, were only dealing with the thief who said he deserved his punishment. Forget the other thief. He was the one who "mocked" Jesus while the first thief rebuked him. Now, let's go to Acts 2:37-38 and at vs37 the crowed out to Peter and the other Apostles...

Now your getting into the area of knowing the operation of one's mind, you don't know it. The thief was convinced that what he did was wrong and he deserved the punishment he was given. I doubt very much he had some sort of benefit in mind. I base that assumption on the fact that Jesus knew...

Before! Please read the account of one of the thieves on the cross with Jesus at Luke 23:39-43. Matthew 27:38, and Mark 15:27. IN GOD THE SON, bluto

Hebrews 6:13-20 are some of my favorite verses, especially vs13. Why? Because it was Him who said those words at Genesis 22:16. First, the context starts at vs15, "Then the angel of the Lord called out to Abraham a second time from heaven, vs16, and said, "By Myself I have sworn, declares the...

After reading all that you wrote, and btw I am aware of most of it, I have a couple of questions? If Jesus and the Father are one in union and concord, metaphorically, purpose or even in gender, how do these words justify the Jews wanting to kill Jesus for blasphemy? Or to put it another way...

According to the context starting at John 10:30 Jesus says, "I and the Father are one." So how are they one? Some say and teach that the Father and the Son are one in purpose. It is true that they are one in purpose but that is not what Jesus was saying. At vs31, "The Jews took up stones again...

Since the subject of "gods" has been brought up I thought it would be instructive that Jesus Himself brought it up at John 10:30-38. Specifically, at vs34-36. "Jesus answered them/the Jews, "Has it not been written in your Law, "I said you are Gods.?" (Jesus is quoting Psalm 82:6) Vs35, "If he...

"I c." So, instead of focusing or isolating on the words/1:c, "and the Word was God" how about considering the context of John 1:1/ Genesis 1:1 states, "In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth." The definite article "in" is supplied, just like it is supplied at John 1:1. In other...

Are you a Jehovah's Witness that believes that Jesus Christ is "a god" and that Jesus is also Michael the archangel? Just asking so I know who I'm dealing with. IN GOD THE SON, bluto

I've been dealing with the JW's for over 60 years now and I will give you a short of version cutting to the chase so to speak. You need to control the conversation. So, say to them that in their NWT at John 1:1 Jesus is identified as "a god." Then quote them Isaiah 44:24. In fact have them read...
