This seems to be the problem here.....how do you know that you have the Holy Spirit guiding your thinking and interpretation?
The first century disciples and apostles had the gifts of the spirit to identify them.....what do you have apart from words that contradict what the Bible says in so many ways.
Do you understand the mechanics of Christ's ransom? If you do, the you would understand why your two lines of descent from Adam are nonsense. This is your interpretation of scripture.
First thanks for the reply, second, if what I say is not true is will fail. But if what I speak is true it will stand. Anyone’s doctoral beliefs if not test, are you then sure in your belief?. remember “the gates of hell cannot prevail against the church, which are you and I, the church.
Now as for having the Spirit, as as well as the first century disciples and apostles, Paul said, 1 Corinthians 7:40 "But she is happier if she so abide, after my judgment: and I think also that I have the Spirit of God."
And I think the problem is this, “ye have not because ye ask not”.
As for the fallen line from Adam, who by the way is a son of God, just fallen, we need to be born again. Because the children in the garden was born alive to God vs. The children born in sin, dead (spiritually) to God, hence the redemption.
Who said it's coded and that you alone have been given this knowledge to crack the code? I think perhaps you have watched too many Hollywood versions of events.
The original language words are now better understood than they were when the older archaic English versions were printed. The KJV itself has revisions you know. Knowledge grows, it does not stagnate.
When we say “coded” …
sealed, not known, hidden. scripture,Isaiah 29:10 "For the LORD hath poured out upon you the spirit of deep sleep, and hath closed your eyes: the prophets and your rulers, the seers hath he covered." Isaiah 29:11 "And the vision of all is become unto you as the
words of a book that is sealed, which men deliver to one that is learned, saying, Read this, I pray thee: and he saith, I cannot; for it is sealed:" Isaiah 29:12 "And the book is delivered to him that is not learned, saying, Read this, I pray thee: and he saith, I am not learned."
See, the educated, as well as the uneducated is in the same boat. We all need the Holy Spirit for guidance to unlock the scriptures..1 Corinthians 2:13 "Which things also we speak, not in the words which man's wisdom teacheth,
but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual." 1 Corinthians 2:14 "But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned."
as for new translations, I'll pass....
Again, ask God for the revelation. For we have not because we ask not.
What is the soul in the Hebrew Scriptures?
a LIVING CREATURE, just look in the mirror
Ah so you believe that Jesus is God then? Existing in God's "form" simply means being of the same substance as the Creator, like all spirit beings are. The pre-human Jesus is a creation of his Father who is his 'begetter'. (Colossians 1:15-17; Revelation 3:14) There is only one true God...the Father. (John 17:3)
without a doubt, he's the one. but if you have any doubt, please reconcile John 1:3 and Isaiah 44:24 as to who “
MADE ALL THINGS”. (Please Note, in Isaiah 44:24, the one who
made all things is “
Alone”, and
by himself, so he didn’t go through anyone. And also remember God is everywhere, and this “ONE” person was alone….
So you have a twisted version of the trinity by making Jesus the holy spirit? Interesting....
Now that's a whole discussion all by itself.
Again you betray no knowledge of the mechanics of Christ's ransom. God becoming a man is overkill on the meaning of redemption. Like using a thousand cans of bug spray on one mosquito.....it was the other way around....one perfect life was offered for millions of humans sold into sin through no fault on their part.
Who said that?.
Why would God need to become manifest as a human? He has servants to carry out his will....Jesus is the foremost one of them.
ANSWER: Isaiah 63:5 "And I looked, and there was none to help; and I wondered that there was none to uphold: therefore mine own arm brought salvation unto me; and my fury, it upheld me." new testament, Revelation 5:3 "And no man in heaven, nor in earth, neither under the earth, was able to open the book, neither to look thereon." you might want to add these as cross references.
Now if no man was found, God himself came, MINE “OWN” arm brought salvation unto me. And who , yes that’s right who is God’s OWN arm, read Isaiah 53, especially verses 1-4, but the entire chapter and book is worth your read.
How is it that on his return to heaven, Jesus can still speak about his God? He refers to "my God" 4 times in one verse. (
Revelation 3:12) Can God worship himself?
his God is HIM in Spirit form, without flesh and blood, glorified God. John 20:28 "And Thomas answered and said unto him, My Lord and my God." Now if JESUS is not God, then you have two Gods…
that's another topic too.
