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
