Too many religions

[kjw47]

Let us make man in our own image (Genesis 1:26) represents a reference to more than one Spiritual being (not angels by the way). The New Testament clearly makes reference to the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Let's not get caught up in the word "trinity" in which there is no reference of this word in Scripture. But the spiritual reality of God manifested in three personalities is clearly articulated. Since you quote Paul, what does he make reference to in regards to Jesus in Phillipians 2:5-11?

When one understands that the greeks didnt use a,an, or the in their written language, the translator from greek to the language of the day, one had to know where to place those--an a belongs in the last line of John 1:1--- catholicism translators left it out to fit council false teachings-- also the greek word for worship to God also had 4 other meanings--one was obesiance to a king--so in reference to our king Jesus, obesiance was the right translation not worship-- That is why Jesus has a God rev 3:12-- because he is Gods son, not God.
Make man in our image--yes Jehovah was speaking to Michael( came to earth and was called Jesus as a mortal) God created Michael directly( first and last) all other things were created through him. Jesus goes on to tell you this at rev 3:14.
Phillipians is mistranslated in certain bibles as well--- see in vs 9 it says Jesus was exalted to a superior position( than one before he came) ( that position is King for 1000 years) then Jesus must hand back the kingdom( kingship) to his God and Father and become a subject once again( 1 cor 15:24-28), there is no equality when one is in subjection.

This is not even factually accurate and I'm a masters student in OT and NT Commentary and theology.

Sounds like New World Translation (18th Century) Jehovah Witnesses propaganda. Does not align with 1st and early century Christology and doctrine regarding the person and divine nature of Jesus Christ. You cannot flip the script some 1800 years later and take Jesus diety away from Him. I would be more inclined to trust the integrity of the early biblical writings written within a generation of the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ rather a distorted translation of scripture penned some 1800 years later.

What exactly makes biblical writings any more credible than other religous writings and stories? Are we to believe every religion on earth except christianity is nonsense? What amazing evidence to you have to give your belief more credibility than anyone else's beliefs?

 

[paarsurrey]

So, are you saying that you agree that all the major religions are from the same God, and we know these religions came at different time, and when their Messenger came, said to people; follow the New revelation from God. So, if you agreed these these Messengers are from the same God, why not find out which religion is the most recent, and follow that one?

Islam, its interpretation by Ahmadiyya, as expressed in Quran is the latest religion, in my opinion; and I believe in it.

 

[paarsurrey]

Science dominates the real world.

Science is only a recent product; and of itself it is deaf and dumb, in my opinion. It is the one true attributive creator God who dominates the Universe, since its inception; my religion tells me this correctly:

[2:108] Dost thou not know that the kingdom* of the heavens and the earth belongs to Allah alone? And there is no protector or helper for you beside Allah.

To understand religion correctly there is no requirement to have a masters degree; Jesus and Moses did not have one.

Then why is there like five thousand different interpretations/denominations of christianity?

Yes 5000 different religions-- 4999 went to schools of men-- 1 gets taught by the HS. Through the FDS.( Faithful and discreet slave whom Jesus appointed over all of his belongings)

You know this how?

 

[paarsurrey]

You know this how?

Jesus and Moses did not have any degree from the college or university.
Did they have?

"Faithful and discreet slave" ... this is a Jehovah's Witness term, correct?

 

[waitasec]

i don't get it.

for the sake of argument, they didn't need to verify with anyone else that they themselves existed.

Its in the bible. Matt 24:45-47

What is it you claim these terms:
( Faithful and discreet slave whom Jesus appointed over all of his belongings)
are to mean?

Or rather what do claim these verses mean?
New International Version (©1984)
"Who then is the faithful and wise servant, whom the master has put in charge of the servants in his household to give them their food at the proper time?
New Living Translation (©2007)
"A faithful, sensible servant is one to whom the master can give the responsibility of managing his other household servants and feeding them.
English Standard Version (©2001)
“Who then is the faithful and wise servant, whom his master has set over his household, to give them their food at the proper time?
New American Standard Bible (©1995)
"Who then is the faithful and sensible slave whom his master put in charge of his household to give them their food at the proper time?
http://bible.cc/matthew/24-45.htm

By the way I agree that understanding the bible is not guranteed by a degree. However it usually does help unless you are at one of the Godless liberal propaganda machine universities.

Christianity is just another religion (out of many) used by men to acheive their own purposes and agendas. If christianity were the "true" religion, imo, It would not be so easy to misinterpret. Since its supposed to be the inspired word of god and all.
