Re: Jesus is God

"In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God." Since John is speaking about God, who I know is an eternal being, then "In the beginning" must mean eternity past, not that there was a literal starting point. Dwight, an important point to note in this passage is tha...

Re: Jesus is God

Dwight: I'm curious what you do with that! (Not really - I know what you will do - explain it all away as you do all the rest of the verses that are clear, plain and easy to understand, but you don't want to accept) Then what's the point of discourse with you? And you complain of Paidion? This is n...

Re: Jesus is God

Dwight, you mentioned that Jesus being the "Son of God" was evidence that Jesus was eternal. Curious what you do with the following? "The angel answered and said to her, "The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you; and for that reason the holy Child shall...

Re: Jesus is God

Hmmmm... If Dwight is right, it looks like God has a God! Paidon: You've made this mocking statement before and now you're doing it again. Let me ask you a question: Is the Father called Lord? Of course He is. Is the Son called Lord? Of course He is. I would assume you believe that. Well then, if y...

Re: Jesus is God

Dwight: The scripture tells us that before Jesus was born or begotten in Mary's womb, He was called "The Word" - John 1:1. "The Word became flesh - Jesus, but before His birth He existed with the name "The Word". This is more careless exegesis. What we know from this passage is that there was somet...

Re: Jesus is God

(Heb 5:5 ESV) So also Christ did not exalt himself to be made a high priest, but was appointed by him who said to him, "You are my Son, today I have begotten you." A human child is begotten when a sperm of a man enters the egg of a woman. That's when the life of that child began, and from there, ov...

Jesus is God

In Hebrews 7:3, the writer tells us that the Son of God has "NEITHER BEGINNING OF DAYS nor end of life ..." We know that the man Jesus had both a birth and a death - and a human mother, but His Father was God. But, as the Son of God, one of Jesus' titles, given to Him by Gabriel (who also told Mary ...

Re: MacArthur on the "Essential" Trinitarian Doctrine

The Apostle John testified that Jesus was "making Himself equal with God". The only way someone can be equal with God is if He is God. Anyone less than God cannot be equal with God. Unless the translators here are biased toward Trinitarianism - as you claim in most of the other verses. Or if you wa...

Re: MacArthur on the "Essential" Trinitarian Doctrine

Paidon and Darin: I find it interesting that my evidence is pretty much 100% scripture, whereas your rebuttals have very little scripture - rather they attempt to explain why the scriptures that I quote really don't say what is obvious, but something else. Also, you guys don't have to reinvent the w...
