I was asked a question.
A good one.
Please allow the Spirit to take us where He wills.
He will always keep us in a right order.

The question may have been good in a way, but it was off topic for this thread,
and there is no good reason to attribute it to the HS, so it is also good that you
promise to guide the asker to a different thread if he persists.
Relaxing is good, too.
:D

It's over.

Did you notice?

This has become a bigger distraction.
 
You better defer if we're considering discernment.

Here is an interesting point that came out of that momentary diversion...

Those who deny the Rapture?
They are out to DISCOURAGE Christians.
Mark them if they do.
Even if they have a smiley face!

Well, actually, I posted because I sympathize with Aaron's request for posters to stay on topic,
and I wish that were true for all of these CC threads, so trollers would be weeded out.
 
The grammar is unusual. It means that His standing with God, being the same, was not something He used to His advantage.

At any rate is is equal with God because He is God

Some of these newer translations make it sound as though He is not equal with God

Those using newer translations are easily deceived.


"I am one with my wife, therefore we cannot be in different places at the same time."

See how that sounds?

These deceived would not understand what the Lord is saying when He says a man will become one with His wife.

It matters not "how it sounds" to the world and to those not accepting the Word of the Lord.

The goal is to keep it at a minimum.

For, it is not yet the millennium.

The Lord's ways are not mysterious to those that accept His Word and have received the Holy Spirit to lead them in to all Truth
----------------------------------------------

Got a couple questions for you??

On the night Jesus was arrested why did he keep coming back to the disciples asking them to watch? ( 3 times )

On the Day of Pentecost when Apostle Peter stood up and spoke about 3000 souls were saved! Why about 3000?????????????

God's Word provides it's own commentary

Matthew 26:41 - Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation: the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.



On the Day of Pentecost when Apostle Peter stood up and spoke about 3000 souls were saved! Why about 3000?????????????

Keep ready the rest of God's Word - a lot more got saved going forward!!!!!!!!!!!!

Totally agree.

There is an elevated standard for "one"; a standard that cannot be perceived by the 5 senses unless it is demonstrated.

I think of an ambassador (the word Paul used to describe the essence of his ministry). An ambassador carries the full weight of authority of the king YET, to be one with the king, he or she can express no self-made opinion.

Further more, the most an ambassador can give to the king is his own life. By that example, dying for the ruler, we can attest that he and the ruler were of one mind, one life and one motivation. By examining the ambassador we may understand the ruler who sent him.
 
Hey buddy. Still can't keep on topic.


And you are still here hiding under the radar with denying the Millennium reign of Christ, and saying there is no Rapture we are waiting for.

Keep smiling. You're making friends with the unsuspecting.
 
Back to the so called Trinity

Holy Spirit

Matthew 1:18
Now the birth of Jesus Christ[a] took place in this way. When his mother Mary had been betrothed to Joseph, before they came together she was found to be with child of the Holy Spirit;

Luke 1:
35 And the angel said to her,
“The Holy Spirit will come upon you,
and the power of the Most High will overshadow you;
therefore the child to be born will be called holy,
the Son of God.

John 20:22
22 And when he had said this, he breathed on them, and said to them, “Receive the Holy Spirit.

No third person here
 
And you are still here hiding under the radar with denying the Millennium reign of Christ, and saying there is no Rapture we are waiting for.

Keep smiling. You're making friends with the unsuspecting.
Still deceitful as you are dishonest. You know I believe in the rapture, as well as the millennial reign of Christ.

1 John 5:7
For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are One.

Concerning the trinity... the Father, the Son, and the Spirit... are One!

Pretty hard to explain away something scripture clearly tells us which is... One is Three, and the Three are One.

In fact.... you and I are three that is one (we are a spirit, we possess a soul, and we live in a body)

1 Thessalonians 5:23
And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray God your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.

After all... the Lord did create man in His Own Image.

Genesis 1:26
God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness

That's the Father, the Word, and the Spirit saying "Let us make man in our image, after our likeness"
Correct, and we also see it in the rest of creation - ie:

Time, Space, and Matter (3) = (1) Universe

Electron, Proton, Neutron (3) = (1) Atom

Amen.
