Re: Do You Believe ...

Phil 2:5-8 and Heb 1:6 were probably in my mind. Not explicit, but implicit :)

Re: Do You Believe ...

"I and the Father are one" is interesting. One in thought, one in purpose...but only after Luke 2:40, 52, "40 And the Child (Yahshua) grew and became strong in spirit, filled with wisdom; and the grace of God was upon Him. ... 52 And Yahushua increased in wisdom and stature, and in f...

Re: Do You Believe ...

Granted that Yahushua does receive worship, it is not because he is Yahuweh but his proxy. Just as when the captain of a ship is not onboard, the next highest officer receives all the same respect and honors of the captain. He has full command of the vessel and he can do as he pleases with one cave...

Re: Do You Believe ...

I believe that Yahushua was clear when he asked in Matthew 27:46,"...my God, my God, why have you forsaken me?" Yahuweh cannot forsake himself. Can't He? I'm afraid I couldn't find the Scripture to back up this statement. Yahushua's also quoting Psalm 22, which is a prophecy regarding the...

Re: See how long/large/tall letters .. Gal 6:11

I had better wait arguing that the letter to the Galatians was really written by Paul until people have convinced themselves that it is in harmony with the other scriptures of the bible. I'll leave the topic of whether Gal is Pauline or not for a different thread (or possibly through email if you w...

Re: See how long/large/tall letters .. Gal 6:11

I most certainly agree, sestir. Whilst I don't contend that there were forged letters in Paul's name (a most famous one is the forged letter known as "3 Corinthians"), for them to be so many according to scholars is, quite frankly, ludicrous. Especially as they don't apply the same critiqu...

Re: See how long/large/tall letters .. Gal 6:11

Wow, that was a really quick reply! I obviously have nothing better to do :P Do you think it was forged? It is fine to stay undecided because one should not set an opinion in stone or in a rush. Personally I don't think that 2 Thess is a forged letter. But then, my opinions are very much in contras...

Ah, that fun time that is trying to engage people in FB comments. On a status posted by the ever awesome Ken Power (http://www.kenpowerbooks.com" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;), a "discussion" once again erupted concerning the person of Paul of Tarsus (aka Saint P...

Re: Early Christian quotes from the bible

Yeah, I've never been able to find a genuine reason for how someone can "copyright" a manuscript quote. I guess the transcription done by the transcriber could be copyrighted? I really don't know.

Re: Early Christian quotes from the bible

Unfortunately, the answer to all your questions posed above, sestir, require only the two following words: "none" and "no". To break them down a bit, with a slightly more fuller response other than "none" or "no": "Surely there must be.....written in what...

Re: Was Paul a lawbreaker Part 3

I see that you believe no other bible translation is quite up to par with yours. Any time there is debate over a verse you say all the other translations are wrong. Seeing as though most 'translations' aren't new 'translations' just "Revised versions" of previous "versions" whic...

Re: Was Paul a lawbreaker Part 3

Thanks for that story there, sestir. I unfortunately couldn't find much about it on the old interweb. Would you be able to provide us with a quick webpage source? :) It’s probably against my better judgement to reply to this of yours, Heph, but what the hey. Hopefully it might aid others who would b...

I think we should wait until when you get a new computer sorted before we start adding more stuff to talk about.

I didn't say I pasted my own words because I didn't know you could tell what was pasted and what wasn't. I can't. If it wasn't my words though, I would have added quotations.

Re: Was Paul a lawbreaker Part 3

No need to be rude or unkind. I wasn't being rude or unkind. I was giving an accurate description of what I saw. Is there a reason you are against copy and paste. Yes, because it usually shows that the person who's done the C&P hasn't really thought about it at all, but just wants to regurgitat...

Re: Was Paul a lawbreaker Part 3

TWTY-Admin, Whether or not you agree, the majority of scholars believe that the ravenous wolf of Genesis 49 was Paul. Do you believe it was someone else? "Scholars"? What "scholars" do you refer to here? The word so commonly used by Saul, bondage, is always in reference to the l...

Re: Was Paul a lawbreaker Part 3

It must also be said that the Messiah spoke to Jews mainly - not Gentiles. The Messiah didn't really talk much with regards to the marriage between a "believer" and an "unbeliever" - Paul on the other hand had to contend with this issue, especially in the ridiculously polytheisti...
