johnw74:I have been waiting for you to quote this scripture, my prayer answered definitely. Do you believe what the Jews said here about Jesus your personal Lord and Saviour ........ Joh 5:18 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, [b]making himself equal with God Do you believe what Jesus your personal Lord and Saviour said here about the same Jews .......... John 8:42 Jesus said unto them, If God were your Father, ye would love me: for I proceeded forth and came from God; neither came I of myself, but he sent me. John 8:43 Why do ye not understand my speech? even because ye cannot hear my word. 8:44 Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it. If I am a student of yours, whose word would you want me to believe(that of the Jews or Jesus christ or both). Note, Whatever you choose for me tells me the kind of person you are. Chose wisely or run from the question as usual. 1 Like |

achorladey: Using the satan explanation not in the Bible to support your argument About Jesus not being God. See your comment below Let me help you reason well, let's assume Jesus is equal with God(definitely Jesus was not) would it be right for Jesus to entertain such thought of taken advantage of his equality with God? What will he(Jesus) gain from taking such advantage since they are equal? Will it be necessary for Jesus to seek God's consent to be restored back to a position he humbly dropped? Or why will God need to exalt him to a position he(Jesus) humbly relinquished? That Satan took advantage of being in God's form or nature made him any better than his creator? See that scripture in its proper sense. see how you put in satan explanation something not in the Bible to ask your questions And the way you ask questions are not good instead of asking questions directly you tend to make suggestions on what the person is to answer while ending the statement with question mark. I think It's being deceitful Well I won't assume my beliefs are not based on assumptions from the Bible rather from the Bible itself. If Jesus had a problem with people calling him God or giving him accolades given to God he would have told them to stop and told them he wasn't God that they should stop. Don't ask me to assume. But just know that you just told me your beliefs are based on assumptions Like I said read the whole chapter and get a real grasp of what the chapter means. You are quoting out of context and btw that Paul said that Jesus being in very nature God, but did not consider himself equal as the father doesn't mean Jesus is not God. Paul even acknowledged Jesus Christ as God |

Barristter07: It didn't take long for you to start lying again lie lie barrisster barristter has one "t" by the way, not a very smart barrister Joh 14:28 Ye have heard how I said unto you, I go away, and come again unto you. If ye loved me, ye would rejoice, because I said, I go unto the Father: for my Father is greater than I. ^^^Jesus is speaking there from His human perpespective, as the Word He is equal like the scriptures show, , open your eyes and believe the Bible but of course you lie lie captivator don't believe the Bible and your false jw org has changed your own book Jesus knew He was equal to God(Father): Php_2:6 Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: The Jews of that time knew Jesus considered Himself God: Joh 10:33 The Jews answered him, saying, For a good work we stone thee not; but for blasphemy; and because that thou, being a man, makest thyself God. Joh 20:28 And Thomas answered and said unto him, My Lord and my God. God is One: Joh 10:30 I and my Father are one. Joh 8:58 Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am. ^^^ Jesus is Yahovah(God) of the Old Testament, read the Yahovah - Jesus verses I posted, but believe them. |

Barristter07: lie lie barristter, saintmark post is a good one, and all you can do is try and twist- lie away the truth Jesus the "man" is subordinate to Father "God", and with that you deny all the scriptrures showing that "the Word is God", God(Father) and God((the Word) is God, of course God is equal to God, but instead of believeing the Bible, you deny it because you cannot understand, not having God's Spirit. Jesus emptied himself of his divinity, of his equality with God, and became a subordinate man. As God, God and the Word is equal, of course, but not to Christ deniers, not to antichrists you don't understand or believe, I know that, bad for you lie lie. |
Re: "How Can One Witness To A Jehovah's Witness?" by johnw74: 4:15am On Jul 03, 2017 |
Barristter07: duh another lie from barristter with two "t", if angels have the nature of God, how did satan and a third of the angels fall angelic beings are not God beings, there are myriads of angelic beings, there is only one God being who is two persons God and the Word (leaving Holy Spirit out, you couldn't possibly understand, you don't even understand how God and the Word is God, contary to God's word.) The closest angels are to God is that they are spirits, satan and other fallen angels are spirit's, but not of God's Spirit, and not God. Angelic beings have an angelic spirit, like humans have a human spirit. If angels were of God's Spirit they would be God, as God and the Word is God If angels were of God's Spirit, one third of them would not have fallen to a sinful state, including the false jw's god satan. btw, Christians are not of God's Spirit, they have God's Spirit dwelling in them, only Father and the Word are the God Spirit, when the Word became flesh He had a human spirit, and He also had the God Spirit, He was both man and God, God can become man but He cannot stop being God, and He sometimes spoke from a human prespective, and He sometimes spoke from a God prepesceptive, however I know you cannot understand any of that, and deny it even if you could. false jw's, the great Jesus Christ deniers. 1 Like |

achorladey: ac hor ladey ha ha, that from the great confused athlete - marathon runner, truly I do believe the jews said that Jesus was making Himself equal with God, that's what is written etc., John 5:18 truly I do believe Jesus said the jews are of their father the devil, and the lusts of their father they will do. He(satan) was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it. That's what is written etc., John 8:44 yes Jesus said that about the jews, it is also about false jw being of their father the devil see in red how you are alike your confusion is amazing, only other people pleasing confused jw's can believe you. |

Barristter07: His post is exactly true, what part of it is a very illogical assertion? none, but you are a forever lie lie Hairyrapunzel: Barristter07: duh, how are humans, partakers of the divine nature, by having the Holy spirit live in them, that's how, their spirit doesn't change from human spirit to God Spirit. |
Re: "How Can One Witness To A Jehovah's Witness?" by johnw74: 5:18am On Jul 03, 2017 |
Barristter07: how can jw's be so duh, by not having God's Spirit, that's how the verse is not talking of some future time after the resurrection and catching up to the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, it is talking off what Christians can have then and now, read the next verse 5, which tells us, that besides the promise that we may be partakers of the divine nature we can then add to our faith virtue and knowledge. |

achorladey: another very simple question that the great marathon runner runs away from Hairyrapunzel: Joh 17:3 And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent. ^^^ this is Jesus speaking in the capacity as a man(Son of God) This below is showing that the Son in the Spirit is God: Joh 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. I know you claimed that is the only verse I know off showing Jesus the Word is God, but you wouldn't accept my challenge of posting others |
Re: "How Can One Witness To A Jehovah's Witness?" by johnw74: 6:05am On Jul 03, 2017 |
achorladey: @bold, duh, not difficult at all, satan was a angel, had the nature and spirit of the angelic kind until he had the thought to knock God of His Throne, ha ha he so duh like false jw, he is the originator of: Jesus Christ is not the Lord and Saviour, the Word is not equal to God etc. he is your father, the god that you follow, who teaches you, I have to admit though ac hor ladey, he does teach you well. @underline, you know him much better than most. |

alchemist13: False jw doesn't believe much of anything that is written in the Bible about Jesus Mat 10:33 But whosoever shall deny me before men, him will I also deny before my Father which is in heaven. (2Pe 2:1) But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction. (2Pe 2:2) And many shall follow their pernicious ways; by reason of whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of. That is sure speaking of evil phony jw's however al, it is logical and appropiate that an atheist supports sectarian false jw's |
