| Jun 29, 2022 at 0:24 | comment | added | Cork88 | @AlexBalilo You need to read that book I recommended, I keep going in circles with you. Deuteronomy 6:4 refers to compound unity in terms of the word “echad” (Hebrew) which does not imply solitary “Oneness”. So God is One is a united sense, not One in an alone sense. The Hebrew term shows to that end. | |

| Jun 28, 2022 at 22:03 | comment | added | Cork88 | @AlexBalilo I quoted that in reference to the fact that there is only One God. I wasn’t getting into technical names with Jehovah & Jesus/Johoshua. Furthermore, there are OT passages that link with the NT that shows that Jesus shares the same divine name as Yahweh, so your argument doesn’t make sense. | |
| Jun 28, 2022 at 21:33 | comment | added | Alex Balilo | @Cork88. Thank you for quoting Isaiah 43:10. The LORD in that verse is Jehovah not Jesus. Jesus is not Jehovah. Jesus name is Jehoshua. His God's name is Jehovah. The construction of theophoric names, starting with the letters “Jeho” is evidence that God’s name is actually ‘Jehovah’ (and that Christ’s name is actually Jehoshua)” – Smith’s 1863 “A Dictionary of the Bible”Section 2.1 – | |
| Jun 28, 2022 at 20:00 | comment | added | Cork88 | @steveowen This Scripture shows that Jesus raised Himself up also: “Jesus answered them, “Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.” The Jews then said, “It took forty-six years to build this temple, and yet You will raise it up in three days?” But He was speaking about the temple of His body. So when He was raised from the dead, His disciples remembered that He said this; and they believed the Scripture and the word which Jesus had spoken.” John 2:19-22 | |
| Jun 28, 2022 at 12:26 | comment | added | Steve | @NigelJ what remains is to avoid making up 'the Messiah who rises unaided'. Surely you are not depending solely on the, 'I lay my life down...' verse! While dismissing the ~30 verses that say the Father or God raised Jesus - so he could go where ? To sit beside God!

Being 'in the image of God' is not being God. 3. Quoting a text (as Jesus did) regarding 'gods' in order to confound and refute an ignorant accusation does not substantiate calling a man 'God'. 4. But when a voice from heaven (three times) affirms that one is the 'Son of God' and when one rises from the dead, unaided, what remains ? | |
| Jun 28, 2022 at 2:27 | comment | added | Cork88 | I’m confused, the scripture says: “You are My witnesses,” says the Lord, “And My servant whom I have chosen, That you may know and believe Me, And understand that I am He. Before Me there was no God formed, Nor shall there be after Me. Isaiah 43:10 - God also said: “I am the Lord, and there is no other; There is no God besides Me. I will gird you, though you have not known Me, Isaiah 45:5 - So what are you insisting? Polytheism? Classical Trinitarianism (as you know) doesn’t affirm polytheism, nor Tri-theism. So can you elaborate? | |
