I believe he has equal status in the
Godhead with the other two members. God is ONE -
remember?
That is good, Judy. And yes I do remember that. Why then do
you make such an issue out of Jesus' statement that the Father was greater
than he?
Because He said it and since you hold
Him in such high esteem yourself, I would think that you would find this an
important point also. His time spent on this earth as a man was for a purpose. He came
to demonstrate for us how to live as well as to lay down His human life so
that we could live by being reconciled to the
Father.
Correction, she writes as one who
knows the One who knows all truth
I was only trying to be respectful of your position, Judy.
Just yesterday you criticized the early fathers for not being able to fully
understand the incarnation, pointing to "the Promise of
the Father which is the Spirit who will lead us into
ALL Truth." [emphasis your own] Do you
see why I might misunderstand you from time to time?
No Bill I don't ... when all I am
doing is quoting what has already been written and is sealed in
heaven.
Bill
[Y]ou guys keep constructing straw men arguments, claiming they are
her's,
and then when it finally comes out that she doesn't believe what
you have
been arguing all along that she believes, you think she has
changed her
perspective.
Well, David, I am not one of the "you guys" you mention, as I've been
asking
questions and weighing her answers in view of things she's stated
elsewhere.
Sure you are Bill; you are constantly trying to set
me up with your questions
and whatever answer I come up with is never good
enough, never the right
one so far as you are concerned.. This is not
what I call dialogue
On the question of the nature of Christ and his status in the
"Godhead,"
Judy has been quite elusive and, when not, contradictory. I've
asked her a
very specific question. We'll see if she addresses it or
takes the winding
road yet again.
I believe he has equal status in the Godhead with
the other two members.
God is ONE - remember?
By the way, you're right about the kinder, gentler approach.
Just a civil, respectful approach would be
much appreciated
Though she writes as one who knows all truth,
Correction, she writes as one who knows
the One who knows all truth
she is ignorant of most of this and needsto be taught and brought along
with
patience. I'll try to be better.
Sorry Bill you are not the One I had in mind
.....
Anyway, till next time,
Bill
