    New argument for Jesus being God

    I will not be able to destroy your prison, walls are high, but I am sure God and Jesus will. Their angel says with a loud voice, Fear God, and give glory to him; Calling the One God , a 3 person committee - Glory to God? I missed the memo.

    New argument for Jesus being God

    As Paul woud probably say dingleberries instead! Philip 3:8 :-) You should do due diligence when accusing Paul to be closet trinitarian. Did he not say Jesus had a God? Ephesians 1:17that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the glorious Father, may give you a spirit of wisdom and revelation in...

    New argument for Jesus being God

    I think someone is cherrypicking. A few verses up Romans 8:3For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh:

    Deut 5:12Keep the sabbath day to sanctify it, as the LORD thy God hath commanded thee. 13Six days thou shalt labour, and do all thy work: 14But the seventh day is the sabbath of the LORD thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, nor thy manservant, nor thy...

    I have laid the foundation and ANOTHER BUILDETH THEREON

    Fellowship Ephesians 2:20And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone; 21In whom all the building fitly framed together groweth unto an holy temple in the Lord: 22In whom ye also are builded together for an habitation of God...

    I have laid the foundation and ANOTHER BUILDETH THEREON

    God is not politically correct. Jeremiah 1:10See, I have this day set thee over the nations and over the kingdoms, to root out, and to pull down, and to destroy, and to throw down, to build, and to plant. To destroy is just as important as to build, lest your foundation is on sand.

    Which Jesus are you trusting ?

    Something by which to live. Matthew 22:36Master, which is the great commandment in the law? 37Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. 38This is the first and great commandment. 39And the second is like unto it, Thou...

    Are All satans and lucifers in the Bible the Devil?

    God tells us to avoid evil spirits, so should He send evil spirits? Saul and God were in a relationship and they broke up. God abandoned him and saul felt His Absence. That is the distress. No magic persons.

    Are All satans and lucifers in the Bible the Devil?

    I will assume this is for me. A more literal translation is 1 Samuel 16:14 Berean Study Bible After the Spirit of the LORD had departed from Saul, a spirit of distress from the LORD began to torment him. I believe God can use the mundane as much as he can use the supernatural. Distress is not...

    Are All satans and lucifers in the Bible the Devil?

    A long as you do not place God in a spectrum of spirits. :-) I just made that up. Agree to disagree.

    Are All satans and lucifers in the Bible the Devil?

    Getting too longish. Let us just be blunt. You just died on that hill. You did what the author warned to avoid about "a Spirit". God is not part of the spectrum of spirits. You have a cartoonish idea of God. There is only one God. Angels are messengers of God. Some have name some don't...

    Are All satans and lucifers in the Bible the Devil?

    I am not a greek language specialist by any measure. But the actual quote is spirit the God. The definite article "the" is front of God", so subject predicate is (the) God Spirit. Two phrases are added "is" or "is a". The first "God is Spirit" can be spoken to an atheist and there is no...

    So about the last word. You misunderstand. I was talking about your source of information, not Aron-Ra's. This is definitely the last word to you.

    Are All satans and lucifers in the Bible the Devil?

    I have expounded the translator's principle and the implications. Even commentators that agree with the article they would add expansive reasoning to why we must worship spiritually and that the baser understanding of God as just a Spirit is not correct and would lead you down a rabbit hole...

    It is not ad hominem, it is simply ignored as I refute nothing. When someone says he is upstanding citizen and when you see him it is always him entering or leaving a strip club, bypassing him for good citizenry lessons is a good logical decision. I'll leave you the last comment. ;-)

    Are All satans and lucifers in the Bible the Devil?

    The rule as I have understood it with the article usage is it is optional if the meaning has was not been altered. Consider https://www.middletownbiblechurch.org/egreek/egreek05.htm "....Since my name is used and our Manual Grammar of the Greek New Testament is quoted on page 744 to seek to...

    Yes. Aron-Ra was a minor foot soldier during the new atheist movement. It was the illogical leading the vapid. He is in the vapid category. I have heard from the classy illogical guys already.

    Are All satans and lucifers in the Bible the Devil?

    That is slightly incorrect. John 4:24 Berean Study Bible "God is Spirit, and His worshipers must worship Him in spirit and in truth.” There is actually no article in front of Spirit. See https://biblehub.com/commentaries/john/4-24.htm Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers (24) God is a...

    Are All satans and lucifers in the Bible the Devil?

    That is my point - the devil is a spirit but not a person. If the devil is an idea that can be embraced or rejected, then the devil needs not be a person. By personifying the spirit, a) everyone sinning has as a form of possession of the devil. It takes away from our duty as moral agents of...
