So very true~!
Now, what about the Catholic-Fabricated 'Holy GHOST'?
I do not use word "ghost" for the third person of godhead, I think that "the Holy Spirit" is the right one.

Its not "catholic fabricated".

[SUP]17 [/SUP]But Jesus answered them, My Father worketh hitherto, and I work.
[SUP]18 [/SUP]Therefore the Jews sought the more to kill him, because he not only had broken the sabbath, but said also that God was his Father, making himself equal with God.
[SUP]19 [/SUP]Then answered Jesus and said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, The Son can do nothing of himself, but what he seeth the Father do: for what things soever he doeth, these also doeth the Son likewise.
[SUP]20 [/SUP]For the Father loveth the Son, and sheweth him all things that himself doeth: and he will shew him greater works than these, that ye may marvel. John 5:17-20



[SUP]6 [/SUP]Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God:
[SUP]7 [/SUP]But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men:
[SUP]8 [/SUP]And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.
[SUP]9 [/SUP]Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name:
[SUP]10 [/SUP]That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth;
[SUP]11 [/SUP]And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. Philippians 2:6-11

Jesus TOLD us what the form of God is: spirit.
Angels are spirits, as well as demons.
You forgot the one EXCEPTION to all the knees that bend?

Need me to QUOTE it for you?

Then why not USE it?
I do not understand what is your question about.

Ghost is something left after the dead ones, it can be seen in horror movies.

Spirit is a being whose existence is not material. God is a spirit, angels are spirits etc. And the Holy Spirit is not "Holy Ghost", but, well, the Holy Spirit.

You are not precise again.

"Πνεῦμα Ἅγιον ἐπελεύσεται ἐπὶ σέ, καὶ δύναμις Ὑψίστου ἐπισκιάσει σοι"
"The Holy Spirit will come on you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you"
NIV

Lk 1:35

The Holy Spirit AND the power of God.

So, you know the God Jesus worships?

Do I know Him ? Yes I do.


Jesus worships the Only God that exists. His Father. God sent His Son...Gods Son is Jesus. Jesus calls Him His God.

john 20:17 "Jesus saith unto her, Touch me not; for I am not yet ascended to my Father: but go to my brethren, and say unto them, I ascend unto my Father, and your Father; and to my God, and your God."

and again

matthew 27:46 "And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? that is to say, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?"


its really simply stated, Jesus is the Only Begotten Son of God, the Christ. He worships God. He obeys God

John 15:10 "If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father's commandments, and abide in his love."

He is the Son of God, which God does He worship? theres Only One God.


1 corinthians 8:6 "But to us there is but one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we in him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom are all things, and we by him."

His God is His Father, Our God is His Father and because of Faith in Him we are called children. there is Only One God to worship

People need to realize that Jesus was fully man and fully God.

There is only ONE God in essence/nature Who is made up of three distinct persons (the Godhead) - Father, Son and Holy Spirit.

in 16th century when KJV was translated 'ghost' meant what we mean by 'spirit'. It was only later that the two words diverged

[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]John/Yahanan 7:16-17, "Yahshua answered, them, and said: My doctrine is not Mine, but His Who sent Me. If any man will do His will, he will know about this teaching, whether it comes from YHWH, or whether I am speaking of My own authority."[/FONT]

not at all, People need to realize Jesus is the Only begotten Son of God, thats where salvation is plainly set forth, believe in the Son of God, and realize " Jesus is God and Man" is found in that statement " Jesus is the Only "begotten" Son of God. that is the non deniable christian doctrine. God sent His Son, Born of a Woman. son of God, son of Man.


the Son of God dovers the fact that He was God manifest in the flesh, thats what children are thier parents manifest into the next generation. the important thing is that God sent His Son, His begotten Son without that faith there is no Inheritance of eternal Life to be joined with The Heir in.

was God " Manifest in the flesh?" yeah because Jesus was His Son His perfect Son. Jesus Still Has A Father, and God still Has a Son. they are One because it is Gods Life in Jesus His Son, there is One God the God, the God of Israel, and the God of Israel sent His Son, its the Gospel, its the covenant with abraham who in essence sacrificed His only son by Gods Command. when the time came, God provided the Lamb Just Like He told Isaac He would. Jesus is the Christ the Son of God. He sits at Gods Right Hand on the throne of david forever, He is the One mediator between God and Man, Because He is the Son of God, and He is the Son of Man. He is able to be the perfect High priest as Hebrews describes.

who Jesus is is the Son of God. thats Christianity John 3:16. people need to understand that because He is the Son of God, born of a woman. obviously, He is God and Man in One. which is what the christ Son of God would always be. its essential to undrstand that God the Father, sent His Only begotten Son because He handed all things over to Jesus. or in other words " Jesus received the Inheritance" from God having lived holy as a man, being tempted just like us, yet never sinning.

A man Had to do this, Because Man was told " you will surely die" as a result of sin. so Jesus the Man, did not sin though born of flesh and blood and subject to temptation as men are sinned Not and was killed. this leaves no right by Gods Word for Jesus to remain in death. because death is the price for sin, Jesus owed no sin price to death. so death had no claim on His Body.

He is able to pay our sin debt to death because of this. he came to undo what adam did to us. adam brought Death, Jesus brings back Life. The Christ was always to be born of God, and born of a woman. Jesus is the first christian. He is the first man who you say is " fully God" andthat needs to be uinderstood with this

john 4:24 "God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth."

so you are right in saying He was God, Gods spirit lived in Him. God is not flesh and Blood, Jesus is the One who came in flesh and Blood, God is the spirit within Him. He is the firstborn child of God. the first man, Born of the spirit...the Messiah, the Christ.

I Love Jesus Christ with all the power of my heart. Since the day I was saved, weeping tears of joy, embraced by the brothers and sisters at my congregation, every day has been a benediction, and even through pain I know that the love in my soul for Jesus and his love in return for me is a light bright enough to guide me through even the deepest darkness. God bless

The Son is not eternal, as written in 1 Tim 6:16, "Who only hath immortality, dwelling in the light which no man can approach unto; whom no man hath seen, nor can see: to whom be honour and power everlasting. Amen. "

Opposition to Jesus being eternal also serves to show His Divine nature. "No one can do anything against the truth, but only for the truth." No one disprove me or any believer for being chosen in him before the foundation of the world, because, we don't have a divine nature to challenge other than the Master, Begotten of God. Now we are born of God, soon we will be eternal with Him, those of us who overcome this evil world. There is no time at the speed of Light. God dwell's in unapproachable light that no man can approach to. "Jesus stands in the Light making intercession for us."
