    Which text from the Christian Bible uniquely proves that Jesus is Almighty God?

    Did you read the reference you posted? It doesn’t say what you think it does. Rather, it is more in line with Scholar John McKenzie…. Highly respected scholar and Catholic priest John L. McKenzie, S.J., in his Dictionary of the Bible, says: “The trinity of persons within the unity of nature is...

    Is the evolutionary doctrine a racist doctrine?

    I think the word “educate” and the phrase “way to much” shouldn’t be in the same sentence together. Just saying….

    Jesus is not God

    Good point. What’s supposed to be better than that, huh? That’s exactly how that belief of ‘going to heaven’ got so engrained. (Although the Bible says little about it.)

    Jesus is not God

    *Sigh* Acts 24:15….” ….there is going to be a resurrection of both the righteous and the unrighteous.” I can understand why you would think that all the resurrected “righteous” would go to Heaven, but why do you think the “unrighteous” deserve to go there? Do you realize there are two...

    Jesus is not God

    Here’s another reason that’s supports the Bible as Divine: Would not God, as our Creator, have our best interests at heart? Wouldn’t He give us counsel on the best way to act? Of all the accepted writings that people consider holy, I haven’t come across any that speak against sexual...

    Jesus is not God

    Can I answer? When a person learns who the True God is, which is Jesus’ Father (John 17:3; John 4:23), the God of the ancient Israelites and the Jews, whom Jesus himself worshipped (John 20:17), the person begins to appreciate the Bible is Jesus’ Fathers’ Word. Jesus’ statement @ Luke 10:21 has...

    Exactly! That’s what I’m saying! Yes, and they are wrong! It is simply “the place of the dead”, “the common grave of mankind”! When a person dies, they go to hell = the Grave. There is no awareness of anything in Sheol, or hell, the Grave of mankind. Ecclesiastes tells us that everyone goes...

    Unfortunately, the ancient Hebrew writings / manuscripts that comprise the Bible, were written on perishable materials, like papyri, and vellum. (This was so that many copies could easily be made, for Israelites to read & keep in their homes. Chisel & stone, ie., longer-lasting material, just...

    The Greek word is not Hades, which is rendered hell. It does not say “Hell” or “Hades” there. The word Jesus used there, is “ge•enna”, “Gehenna” That is not what “destroy” means! I see you didn’t check an interlinear which would help you learn. I’m going to try again…. Did you know animals...

    He was being facetious. That’s a problem you seem to have: you reply to posts, without following the context. “He who responds to a matter before he hears the facts, that is foolish on his part and a humiliation.” Proverbs 18:13 Of course, in this case it could be you just don’t get sarcasm.

    Of course He is! It’s God’s purpose, no one else’s. Psalm 46:9 (which I quoted) says “He is bringing an end to wars…” He is Jehovah. Man can’t even “direct his step.” Jeremiah 10:23. How can you quote that, and say it doesn’t apply? It tells you right there, man is incapable of self-rule, and...

    What does this even mean? We are no part of this world…. storing “treasures on the Earth”? We don’t! It - this world - is going down! 1 John 2:15-17; James 4:4 There’s a big difference between this planet & the world on this planet! The vast majority of JW’s, including me, hope to be part of...

    Quite a few Jews became Christians, in one city after another, when Paul “according to his custom … reasoned with them from the scriptures, explaining and proving by references that it was necessary for the Christ to suffer and to rise from the dead…” — Acts 17:2,3. If it hadn’t made any sense...

    Hello blü2… No. Immortality means you can’t die by any means: so bullets couldn’t kill you. The “gift” of “everlasting life”(Romans 6:23) is different from immortality, in that the recipient could die if they ingested poison, got shot by a gun, etc. Jesus, as a perfect human and also a son of...
