Topic: Where in the Genesis is Jesus - part 2 | |

The darkness is behind us. Look where you are going. Look only to the light. Do not dwell on bad things. Again, not dwelling on the bad things. But they happen. So I ask, if your actions are one with God automatically from birth, why is not another's the same automatically from birth? I said that God has always been within me but I did not say that I always REALIZED IT. Not judging your relation with God. Your comment had almost nothing to do with my question. But there is a lot of evil things that happen in "gods" name. So what makes your natural knowledge more sincere then another's that do "evil" actions but in their eyes/views it is what God has told them to do. Do as you wish. Judge me if you wish. I am not concerned about that, and I am not concerned about what other people do or claim. |

Merely asked a question in which you refuse to answer proclaiming me to be judging your relation with God. I know not if you have a relation with God. You say you do, so I have no reason to believe otherwise. Only asking a question if God speaks directly to you and lets you know what to do or not do, then why would he not for everyone? Including again but not limited to rapists, murderers, ect especially those that do it in "gods" name and believe it to be what God wishes. |

Cowboy,I already explained over and over that the Father and Jesus are 2 separate PERSONS within ONE GOD.....but, when you say "persons", I know you to mean it to be as 2 separate 'Gods" .....because you have already made it clear so many times ,that you do NOT believe that the Father and Jesus and The Holy Spirit are ONE GOD ALMIGHTY.......(but you keep twisting my words anyway,as you have always done before, to try and throw people off.....it is called deception). Cowboy, Until you are truly born again and accept the TRUTH about WHO JESUS REALLY IS( INCLUDING THE TRUTH ABOUT HIS DEITY ), all you will ever be able to do on here, is just to spread your "version" of what you THINK the bible means....nothing more...simply because God's Holy Spirit cannot and WILL NOT reside in a person who does NOT beleive in the TRUTH of WHO the REAL JESUS CHRIST IS!!!!!! Is this clear yet? I pray One Day God's Word will become clear to you . There is nothing more I can do now, to make His Word clear to you. Take care now.... |

State what you believe ...that is fine...but DON'T call it CHRISTIANITY!!!!! Cause it is NOT....... How can you make such a judgement and call yourself Christian? Not saying you or you aren't. Is it a Christian to believe Jesus is the only begotten son of God? Jahovas don't, at least some of them don't. Not sure if it's a Jahova belief in general or if they have different sects and different beliefs amongst them. But Jahovas don't even believe Jesus to be the only begotten son of God, they see him as a prophet. They don't even celebrate Christmas, as they do not see Jesus as the promised messiah in the old testament. Everything I say in these forums are backed by scriptures, and scriptures not taken out of context I may add. I usually include them in the post I make. I don't follow "Christianity" I follow what Jesus tells us. I don't follow a "religion", again I follow the teachings of Jesus Christ my lord and saviour. |

They are one "god". They all three have the same will, they all three work as one, they all three are one, yet separate "persons" as shown in many scriptures such as God the father saying "This is my son in whom I'm well pleased". "God" in itself is not an entity, it is a title showing to be the one in control. That is why it said "know ye not that ye are gods". We are gods, we are the top of the food chain, we are the ones that run this world in comparison to other creations of God. Jesus is our God, he is the one that leads us. He has authority over us. That is why Jesus referred to his father as "god". Because God the father had authority over Jesus and that is why Jesus did the will of God the father. |

Cowboy, Until you are truly born again and accept the TRUTH about WHO JESUS REALLY IS( INCLUDING THE TRUTH ABOUT HIS DEITY Again, I have never denied Jesus deity. Matthew 1:23 - “Behold, the virgin shall be with child, and bear a Son, and they shall call His name Immanuel,” which is translated, “God with us. John 1:1 - In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God... 1:14 - And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, Notice verses like John 1:1 The Word was WITH God, again showing two separate persons. He was with God, yet was God. It wouldn't have said "with" God if there wasn't two separate persons, for if there wasn't, there would be nothing to be "with". |

You SAY the same words TO FOOL OTHERS....but you DON'T BELIEVE IN WHAT YOU SAY!!!! JESUS IS NOT GOD ALMIGHTY TO YOU AT ALL....he is just a demi=god to you...just "our god"..nothing more....SO stop pretending and stop the deception on here!!! I am done now........cause only God can help you see. /color] JESUS IS NOT GOD ALMIGHTY TO YOU AT ALL....he is just a demi=god to You make a lot of false judgements. Jesus is not a demi-god. A demi-god is half God half mortal. We are not mortal beings, we are immortal. Mortality is placed on us as punishment. God has allowed death to come into the world because of our fall from grace in the garden of Eden. Jesus offers forgiveness for this. Once one has received forgiveness for this and any other sins/transgressions they have done, they are then immortal once again. No, we can no achieve immortality on our own, that only comes from Jesus Christ our God. Notice in verses as below, it says the lord THY God, the lord YOUR god. That is because Jesus has authority over us, making him our God. And again, while Jesus was on the cross he cried out "God" to his father, he did this because the father has authority over Jesus and Jesus does the will of the father. Zephaniah 3:17 17The LORD thy God in the midst of thee is mighty; he will save, he will rejoice over thee with joy; he will rest in his love, he will joy over thee with singing. |

Spread the "Word of God" all day and all night on these forums "if needed". If needed for what? I thought you were here to "merely discuss religion". But you've just confessed that you mission is to "spread the word of God", that's not discussing Cowboy, that's PREACHING. So you have finally confessed that you are indeed using these forums as a pulpit to preach a specific religion to the exclusion of all others. (blatantly against the forum rules) Also what is it that you need? You say; Spread the word of God all day and all night on these forums "if needed". If needed for what? To convert every non-believer of the Bible into a believer who actually accepts your hateful interpretations of things? Even the Catholic Pope wouldn't qualify for that. MorningSong disagrees with your views on what the Bible and Jesus have to say. She's totally hurt and distraught over your butchering of the words of Jesus. Not only would you need to convert non-Christians to Christianity, but you'd also need to convert all the Christians who disagree with your hateful interpretations, from believing in their views of Christianity to accepting your own personal Cowboyianity. You're not doing anyone a favor except potentially that Satan fellow himself. You're certainly not serving Jesus. All you do for Jesus is make him out to be a cold-blooded egotistical person who simply demands that people obey him lest he cast them into everlasting punishment in the form of spiritual death. That's your picture of Jesus. It's a totally threatening picture that is extremely far removed from the actual LOVE that Jesus himself was attempting to teach people. Jesus wasn't about ultimatums Cowboy. Jesus was about LOVE. But no one could ever figure that out from your twisted preaching. This is what MorningSong is trying to get through to you. Jesus isn't about threatening people with ultimatums demanding that they must EARN their salvation through obedience. If that were true there would have been no need for Jesus. You could have EARNED your own salvation without any need for Jesus at all. MorningSong has to be right. If Jesus is offering people salvation it's via the GRACE of LOVE. Not via threats and ultimatums that people must become obedient to EARN their way to the Father through Jesus. That would be totally redundant. If you could EARN your way to the Father through obedience, then there would be no need for Jesus at all. You take the core essence of Christianity and totally smash it smithereens, and then demand that everyone accept your hateful interpretations lest YOU JUDGE THEM to be rejecting Jesus and ultimately God. You have taken ownership of Jesus. He sits on your lap as a marionette doll with his tongue being twisted entirely by YOU. Everyone else is WRONG, including devout Christians like MorningSong, and the Catholic Pope. Only Cowboy has the TRUE WORD OF GOD in his hands. Everyone else is simply wrong. Too bad for them. Jesus does't care. According to Cowboy it's not about LOVE and GRACE, it's all about OBEDIENCE! You must EARN your way to God through OBEDIENCE! |

In a DISCUSSION, two or more people share there beliefs, they discuss amongst themselves about their different beliefs. They don't preach at one another lol. And yes to spread the word of God in the discussion. I discuss what I believe/know to be the word of God, then someone else says what they believe/know to be the word of God ect. So why you keep preaching at me claiming me to be preaching? |

And it's ok if they do not believe in what I believe lol, not trying to change anyone's beliefs. Just discussing the differences in them or the likeness depending on the specific topic. |

I am not concerned about that, and I am not concerned about what other people do or claim. Again, not judging your relation with God. Merely asked a question in which you refuse to answer proclaiming me to be judging your relation with God. I know not if you have a relation with God. You say you do, so I have no reason to believe otherwise. Only asking a question if God speaks directly to you and lets you know what to do or not do, then why would he not for everyone? Including again but not limited to rapists, murderers, ect especially those that do it in "gods" name and believe it to be what God wishes. Cowboy I answered you question. God speaks to everyone. Some people don't listen. God speaks to those who listen. |

Again, not true. We have been kicked out of the Garden of Eden for our disobedience therein. And we have been placed here where there is death. If one wishes to live eternally, they must first show they are obedient and not of the same mind set of Adam/eve. To show you are willing to be obedient to God the father. Jesus offers eternal life, he is the only path to eternal life. He offers this gift out of love for mankind. |

I am not concerned about that, and I am not concerned about what other people do or claim. Again, not judging your relation with God. Merely asked a question in which you refuse to answer proclaiming me to be judging your relation with God. I know not if you have a relation with God. You say you do, so I have no reason to believe otherwise. Only asking a question if God speaks directly to you and lets you know what to do or not do, then why would he not for everyone? Including again but not limited to rapists, murderers, ect especially those that do it in "gods" name and believe it to be what God wishes. Cowboy I answered you question. God speaks to everyone. Some people don't listen. God speaks to those who listen. True, sorry did not specifically see the answer in previous posting(s). God does speak to us all and some listen and some don't. |

You SAY THE SAME WORDS AS CHRISTIANS DO ...BUT YOU FOOL OTHERS.... BECAUSE YOU DON'T BELIEVE THE WORDS,IN THE SAME WAY AS CHRISTIANS DO !!!! THAT IS CALLED DECEPTION , COWBOY!!! JESUS IS NOT GOD ALMIGHTY TO YOU AT ALL....he is just a demi=god to you...just "our god"..nothing more....SO stop pretending and stop the deception on here!!! I am done now........cause only God can help you see. I can fully understand your frustration and your deep concern over this MorningSong. I've listened to your explanations, and although I confess to still retain unresolvable issues with many of these biblical stories, I do indeed see where your picture of Jesus and God is totally righteous, loving, and indeed justifiable. The picture that Cowboy presents is actually far easier to "shoot down". He makes it all too easy. He's been a blessing in disguise for someone like me who enjoys pointing out the absurdities in the Hebrew picture of God. To accept Cowboy's picture of Christianity a person would indeed need to view God as being a totally heartless cold-blooded entity who couldn't care less whether any particular human soul is saved or not. And that does not inspire a faith-based desire in anyone. On the contrary the only people who would believe in Cowboyianity would be people who were convinced that they have no other choice. Your view, MorningSong, of a truly divine and loving creator who has infinitely greater wisdom than Cowboy, is without a doubt, a far more righteous picture of a creator who lovingly offer grace to those that he sees fit draw in. If someone were to ask me who best represents Christianity on these forums I'd definitely be directing them to you MorningSong. |

You SAY the same words TO FOOL OTHERS....but you DON'T BELIEVE IN WHAT YOU SAY!!!! JESUS IS NOT GOD ALMIGHTY TO YOU AT ALL....he is just a demi=god to you...just "our god"..nothing more....SO stop pretending and stop the deception on here!!! I am done now........cause only God can help you see. /color] JESUS IS NOT GOD ALMIGHTY TO YOU AT ALL....he is just a demi=god to You make a lot of false judgements. Jesus is not a demi-god. A demi-god is half God half mortal. We are not mortal beings, we are immortal. Mortality is placed on us as punishment. God has allowed death to come into the world because of our fall from grace in the garden of Eden. Jesus offers forgiveness for this. Once one has received forgiveness for this and any other sins/transgressions they have done, they are then immortal once again. No, we can no achieve immortality on our own, that only comes from Jesus Christ our God. Notice in verses as below, it says the lord THY God, the lord YOUR god. That is because Jesus has authority over us, making him our God. And again, while Jesus was on the cross he cried out "God" to his father, he did this because the father has authority over Jesus and Jesus does the will of the father. Zephaniah 3:17 17The LORD thy God in the midst of thee is mighty; he will save, he will rejoice over thee with joy; he will rest in his love, he will joy over thee with singing. Now here you ARE sayin you DO believe in the "deity" of Christ ...but IT IS STILL DECEPTION ....cause you believe it in the sense that Jesus is just a 'god" over us ,just "our god" ... ......but still not GOD ALMIGHTY!!! COWBOY... THAT IS WHAT I MEAN BY YOUR CONSTANT DECEPTION ON HERE.... TO FOOL OTHERS INTO THINKING YOU ARE ONE OF THE SHEEP!!!! WHEN YOU ARE NOT!!! |

And Ummm hmm, that's why Jesus came to die on the cross for your sins instead of you, it was done because God is heartless. He made himself in the likeness of a man and felt the entire feeling of death for you. Both physical and spiritual. He overcame it for you, but yet yeah I see how you can see God as being heartless. |

You're certainly not serving Jesus. All you do for Jesus is make him out to be a cold-blooded egotistical person who simply demands that people obey him lest he cast them into everlasting punishment in the form of spiritual death. Again, not true. We have been kicked out of the Garden of Eden for our disobedience therein. And we have been placed here where there is death. If one wishes to live eternally, they must first show they are obedient and not of the same mind set of Adam/eve. To show you are willing to be obedient to God the father. Jesus offers eternal life, he is the only path to eternal life. He offers this gift out of love for mankind. But this is where you are dead wrong Cowboy. Even I can see that. But then again I used to be a Christian like MorningSong so I can clearly see these things. You are totally WRONG that Jesus offers "eternal life". That's simply wrong. Eternal life had been offered by God the Father all along. That offer did not come from Jesus. That's your gross misunderstand. Jesus is not offering "eternal life". Jesus is offering GRACE Cowboy. Until you understand that, you don't even have a clue what Christianity is all about. You have much to learn from MorningSong. |

Jesus is offering eternal life, Jesus is the path to eternal life, God the father. Without Jesus there would be not path to God the father. If there is no path to God the father, how is one to get to the father for this gift of eternal life? |
