He was in the beginning with God. All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made... And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth." 6 Likes 1 Share |

Revelation chapter 1 KJV Verse 4 “John to the seven churches which are in Asia: Grace be unto you, and peace, from him which is, and which was, and which is to come; and from the seven Spirits which are before his throne;” ... Verse 5 “And from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, and the first begotten of the dead, and the prince of the kings of the earth. Unto him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood,” I hope you can see the conjunction “AND” that's connecting “Him which is, which was and which is to come” with “Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness”? Doesn't that go to show that they're two different personalities? When you notice the contrast, you can then understand that Revelation 1:7 is referring to Jesus and verse 8 refers to Jesus' Father, the Almighty God. Be sure to take your time.
I fixed it for you there. Jesus Christ is rightly a “god” in the sense that he's of divine nature. Besides, humans are called Gods so there's no big deal about it though.(Exodus 7:1, Psalm 82:6, John 10:34-35) Fact is, Jesus isn't the Almighty God.(John 17:3) Okay, so how can he be in the beginning with God and still be God? Can I direct your attention to Proverbs 8:22-31, Colossians 1:15-17,Revelation 3:14 that proves Jesus was created by God in the beginning and it was through Jesus that all other things were made, spiritual or physical. Also, do well to read 1Corinthians 8:6 and observe the scripture highlights God and Jesus as two separate personalities. Sure, the Word, being Jesus became flesh when his life was transferred from heaven to the womb of Mary and so he(Jesus) came to be in the likeness of men, i.e. he became fully human.(Philippians 2:7) Whereas the scripture has maintained that NO MAN HAS SEEN GOD AT ANY TIME.(Exodus 33:20,23; John 1:18, 6:46) But people saw Jesus, didn't they? So how can Jesus now be God again? Dear Mr/Mrs xproducer, I implore you to use your power of reason and observe the facts carefully. |

"And" is an inclusive term, "or" would differentiate!Nahhh The 'or' would have been suggesting an inclusive term. 'And the' as conjunction there clearly differentiate the two. They are distinct, Jesus is the lamb of God (John 1:29). Only Jehovah is referred to as the Almighty . (compare with 1Co 8:6) "For there are three that bear witness in heaven: the Father, the Word, and the Holy Spirit; and these three are one." - 1 John 5:7You might be wondering why this fraud doesn't appear in many Translations. Broaden your knowledge and research Johannine Comma I am One who bears witness of Myself, and the Father who sent Me bears witness of Me.”"I and My Father are one.” - John 10:30Okkayyy of the key to understanding Bible is making sure that all part agree with another John 17:21, 22 that they may all be one, as you, Father, are in me and I am in you; that they too may be in us, that the world may believe that you sent me.22And I have given to them the glory that you have given to me, that they may be one as we are one: Do the disciples also become part of the Trinity? In what way 'are they one' just as Jesus and his father? |

I cannot open your eyes to spiritual truths, only GOD can. JEHOVAH is the only Savior - "I, even I, am the Lord, And besides Me there is no savior." - Isaiah 43:11 (and Isaiah 45:21) JESUS CHRIST is the only Savior - "Nor is there salvation in any other, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved.” - Acts 4:12 JESUS = JEHOVAH = GOD! GOD is the only Savior and Judge of mankind, and all. "He answered and said to them, “Because it has been given to you to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it has not been given" - Matthew 13:11 "But the natural man does not receive the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him; nor can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned." - 1 Corinthians 2:14 1 Like |

Read Matthew 28:18 and tell me—who bestowed authority on Jesus? Was it Jehovah or someone else? Did Jesus give himself the authority? Philippians 2:9-11, did God exalt himself or someone else above every other name? Hasn't God always been greater than every creature in heaven or earth? If you read the book of John in its entirety, you'll find out that Jesus usually said the things he taught and spoke never originated with him, rather that they originated with someone above him, His Father and God.(John 7:16, 12:49-50, 20:17) JESUS = JEHOVAH = GOD! GOD is the only Savior and Judge of mankind, and all.Says you? Why did Jesus say at John 5:22 that Jehovah judges no one at all but has delegated that responsibility to the Son, Jesus himself? See also Acts 17:31, 1Timothy 4:1.
Please, let's not derail. Leave mysteries and natural man alone first—let's tackle the issue on ground. I appreciate you using the name Jehovah now—at least we can tell the difference between He and his son. 1 Like 1 Share |

[quote author=xproducer post=95364733]I cannot open your eyes to spiritual truths, only GOD can. JEHOVAH is the only Savior - "I, even I, am the Lord, And besides Me there is no savior." - Isaiah 43:11 (and Isaiah 45:21) You're right! Only Jehovah is the principal savior (Isaiah 43:11) When Jehovah uses an individual to deliver men, the Bible called them savior Judges 3:9, 15; 2 Kings 13:5)- All those individuals are saviour but that doesn't equate them to the Almighty God 'Jehovah' the principal saviour. Through Jesus' ransom sacrifice, he's acting as savior to deliver men from death. So, Jehovah exalted him as 'Savior' (Acts 5:31) Meditate slowly on this |

Re: Who Is The Lamb In The Bible? by Janosky: 1:10am On Dec 25, 2020 |
Blabbermouth: 1. God created man to reflect God's perfection and his sterling attributes in the physical realm. 2. Genesis 40:20 Pharaoh celebrated his birthday. Matthew 14:6 Herod celebrated his birthday. These individuals are not worshippers of the true God, Jehovah. Satanists attach great importance to annual birthday celebrations ,it is their highly revered practice. Galatians 4:8-11 is instructive.. "those who have come to know God or be known by God" do not participate in pagan celebrations.

Preciousgirl:"29The next day John saw Jesus coming toward him and said, “Look, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world! 30This is He of whom I said, ‘A man who comes after me has surpassed me because He was before me.’ 31I myself did not know Him, but the reason I came baptizing with water was that He might be revealed to Israel.” (i.e. I did not recognize him as the Messiah, but I have been baptizing with water so that he might be revealed to Israel) 32Then John testified, “I saw the Spirit descending from heaven like a dove and resting on Him. 33I myself did not know Him, but the One who sent me to baptize with water told me, ‘The man on whom you see the Spirit descend and rest is He who will baptize with the Holy Spirit.’ (i.e. I didn’t know He was the One, but when God sent me to baptize with water, He told me, ‘The One on whom you see the Spirit descend and rest is the One who will baptize with the Holy Spirit.’ 34I have seen and testified that this is the Son of God.” 35The next day John was there again with two of his disciples. 36When he saw Jesus walking by, he said, “Look, the Lamb of God!” - John 1:29-36 Blabbermouth: ![]() "All right then, the Lord himself will give you the sign.

His mother, Mary, was engaged to be married to Joseph. But before the marriage took place, while she was still a virgin, she became pregnant through the power of the Holy Spirit. 19Joseph, to whom she was engaged, was a righteous man and did not want to disgrace her publicly, so he decided to break the engagementh quietly. 20As he considered this, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream. “Joseph, son of David,” the angel said, “do not be afraid to take Mary as your wife. For the child within her was conceived by the Holy Spirit. 21And she will have a son, and you are to name him Jesus, for he will save his people from their sins.” 22All of this occurred to fulfill the Lord’s message through his prophet: 23“Look! The virgin will conceive a child! She will give birth to a son, and they will call him Immanuel, which means ‘God is with us.’” 24When Joseph woke up, he did as the angel of the Lord commanded and took Mary as his wife. 25But he did not have sexual relations with her until her son was born.

Satan has successfully packed lots of garbages in their skills, the secret is when they have lots of fallacies about a particular thing. Each person will start spewing and exaggerating whatever nonsense and ingredient Satan is doing inside his brains with the subject of discussion but such knowledge will become useless to the one bearing it. WHY? Because it's not true knowledge from God which must bring benefits to the one bearing it and his fellow adherents! I remember what Satan did to the Jews, once they refuse to accept the wisdom from God that Jesus brought to them, they continued arguing and ostracizing one another until the Roman government got fed up with their trouble and destroyed their city (Jerusalem) with the Temple! Islam is another example. Muhammad fabricated so much fallacies and hand it over to them after stylishly making himself their King, immediately after his death the adherents couldn't recognize any form of principles guiding the religion and it turned into a bloody internal war. The killing continued until each Sheikh decided to stay on his own, that's why Muslims can't come up with any worthwhile moral rule or standard till today! Constantine (Roman Emperor) formed a committee to unite people in his kingdom because after the Apostates emerged and wiped out all the pioneers of true Christianity they won the heart of many Romans, these led to a big dispute between the priests in the Roman Temples and those who embraced false Christianity. Constantine felt threatened so in order to make peace reign in his kingdom he arranged for a committee that will see to the matter. The committee with Constantine himself as chairman came up with the Roman Catholic Church, they diplomatically set up a religion that's neither offensive to the priests in Jupiter's temple nor the Apostates. That's the birth of TRINITY! So there's no way anyone could come up with a perfect form of worship as long as TRINITY is the foundation each adherent will have to develop his own definition and opinion! ![]() Blabbermouth: |
