| Aug 3 at 5:52 | comment | added | Olde English | Here we go again. You ask me questions, I answer them. But rather than comment further with regard to my answers, you ask further questions. I've come to realize that you just refuse to understand and that this is your way. I will inform you as to the reality of two more bible verses that you have now brought up, Acts 5:3-4. You can take it under advisement or not. It's up to you. I will not be commenting further. The 4th verse, now in question, makes it clear that Ananias is lying ultimately to God, not to some nameless/fictitious third spiritual person of your so called Godhead, period. | |
| Aug 2 at 13:32 | comment | added | Mr. Bond | @OldeEnglish No, what's your point? You said, "And, just for the record, Isaiah 42:8 should have been translated: I am Jehovah/Yahweh, that is My name." Why is this such a big deal for you? I did read your bio where you said the trinity is a big hoax. I personally don't believe the Godhead is a mystery. Godhead simply means deity. The Bible identifies 3 and only 3 persons as God. Also, the Holy Spirit is not an active force as the JW's believe. The HS has personality, including emotions, intellect, and will. Multiple verses prove He's a person. Read Acts 5:3-4. Can you lie to an active force? | |
| Aug 1 at 23:02 | comment | added | Olde English | As to vv 2-4, 5-6, there we have a "Theophany/Divine Manifestation", particularly with regard to the latter verses, so what's your point?? | |
| Aug 1 at 22:56 | comment | added | Olde English | ... contd... That this meant no change in God's name, but only an additional insight into God's personality, is seen from His further words, vv 15 & 16: "'Thus you (Moses) shall say to the sons of Israel, "Jehovah (misrepresented in most bibles as "The Lord"), the God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac and Jacob, has sent me to you.' This is My name forever, and this is My memorial-name to all generations." | |
| Aug 1 at 22:38 | comment | added | Olde English | Regarding Exodus 3:13-14, I will teach you something, even though we digress somewhat. God's name (as regards the Tetragrammaton) is best known to us as Jehovah/Yahweh. In Exodus 3:14, Jehovah/Yahweh identifies himself to Moses as 'Eh-yeh' 'Asher' 'Eh-yeh' - "I AM WHO I AM", or more specifically, "I SHALL PROVE TO BE WHAT I SHALL PROVE TO BE" - the Hebrew verb ha-yah, from which the word Eh-yeh is drawn, does not mean simply "be." Rather, it means "become," or "prove to be." The reference here is not to God's self-existence but to what He has in mind to become toward others...tbc... | |
| Aug 1 at 14:03 | comment | added | Mr. Bond | @OldeEnglish I'm not digressing anything, I'm demonstrating that Exodus 3:15-6 explains Gods name. And what about Exodus 13-14, where Moses specifically ask God what if they ask me what your name is, what shall I say? And God said to Moses, I AM WHO I AM." Are these verses "misrepresenting" Gods name? Lastly, I'm trying to teach you that it was the angel of the Lord at verses 2-4 who claimed to be God that spoke to Moses at 5-6. Prove me wrong? | |
| Aug 1 at 5:35 | comment | added | Olde English | Just because you now choose to digress, doesn't mean that I now follow. | |

| Jul 31 at 22:56 | comment | added | Mr. Bond | @OldeEnglish Yea, I read what you said, so why are you responding here with Isaiah 42:8? What's your point? And what's God's name at Exodus 3:15-16? Did you read those verses? And while were in Exodus 3, please explain to all of us here verses 2-6 as to why the angel of the Lord at vs2 is identified as God speaking from the midst of the bush at vs3? | |
| Jul 31 at 22:08 | comment | added | Olde English | See my comment of moments ago, under your Q. And, just for the record, Isaiah 42:8 should have been translated: I am Jehovah/Yahweh, that is My name. Any other translation of the original language, like in the NASB for example, only serves to misrepresent. | |
