Another of Christianity's mistakes.

Why would you think that Jesus is God the Father when verses such as John 1:1 make a distinction between the Word (the preincarnate Jesus) and the Father? Both of whom are called God.

You can't get any more direct than having the Holy Spirit living IN you. All believers have this.

The trinity is a basic teaching....3 distinct EQUAL members of the Godhead forming one God, all with the same nature.

It's actually ghostly and uncanny, rather spooky.
But of all people to have said that to, he is going to say it to the enlightened one?

I don't get it, he picks battles he can't win, nevermind, when it all gets too much, we still got shepherds pie, and O my Lord, I got a million ways.

Jesus (aka god) picks and chooses who gets the caret at the end of the stick.


Matthew 13:9-11 21st Century King James Version (KJ21)

9 Who hath ears to hear, let him hear.â€
10 And the disciples came and said unto Him, “Why speakest Thou unto them in parables?â€
11 He answered and said unto them, “Because it is given unto you to know the mysteries of the Kingdom of Heaven, but to them it is not given.



Hope I taught you something you didn’t know about that god thing you worship. Amen
The hearts of many during Jesus time had grown unreceptive. It was not unexpected. compare Isaiah 6:10, Jeremiah 5:21, Ezekiel 12:2

Jesus (aka god)? Read John 14:28 and John 20:17,18 What did he say about himself in relation to God?
God has delegated judging to Christ. "For the Father judges no one at all, but he has committed all the judging to the Son...."-John 5:22. Christ was born and lived as a man. He's not ignorant of the challenges we each face and proved his compassion.

We should put all the scriptures about the word in one basket.

I swear to God, don't say that again, I already asked for your address, tell me what I have to do???????????

You say,'' Come to me.''

HERE I AM.

The Holy spirit comes to teach the law and the prophets, he comes to teach a person that he is a temple, the kings of east come to teach the comings and goings of the temple, the truth.

The Holy Spirit comes to teach about an abomination of desolation standing in the temple, and this abomination stands against everything that is called of GOD or that is worshipped of God in his own worship system.

The Holy spirit comes to teach great astounding secrets and mysteries concerning the law and the prophets which are a marriage contract full of promises.

You say,'' Come to me.''

I am here, what do you have?

What do I say that makes His communication sound limited? Remembering, I know God has no limits.

While I'm at it there was a prince named Prahlad...(short version), his father for some reason
lit the palace on fire with him in it, on purpose! There was Prahlad surrounded by flames thinking he was going to die....when on a red hot pillar he sees a fly walking...''Thank you, Lord.'' ..and
Prahlad walked through the fire unharmed to the terrified crowd outside.
Thanks for replying! Is the Bible relevant today? Is it only the NT that is accepted? Does the OT have a place? if so, what would that be? Also curious how people came to believe what they believe.
