boarnerges: I stand on my grounds as earlier opined in one of my comments on the religious section. Modern day christaindom is the most confused of all religion, there seem to be a confusion on their deity. 'Jesus is Lord' as quoted in the bible. If Jesus is Lord, then where is the place of 'the father' because Lord means ownership and also the place of the holyghost as in the constellation of the concept of trinity. The trinity has no bases in the bible, it was a pagan doctrine that came in around 325 AD to cloud/subtitute the many gods of the then world power that seeminly adopted christianity as its official religion.. I for call you OLODO but I won't be better off cus I was adviced not to answer a fool according to hi s folly lest I be like him. Genesis 1:26-28 26 And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. 27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them. Matthew 28:19 19 Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, The TRINITY is a mystery(I advice you get a dictionary for this word) but also a revealed truth, would want to give you a detailed lecture but that will be derailing from the topic. Jesus is God, the spoken word of God made flesh, the same word that has been before time began. Someone asked if God will sacrifice Himself to Himself; common stop literal anologies and seek spiritual guidiance before you utter a word about your maker. Matthew 24:35 King James Version (KJV) Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my WORDS shall not pass away. Show you the eternity of Christ in union with the father and the holy spirit. Be open minded dude and don't jump into conclusions and to complicate things the more for you my friend; John 17:21 21 That they all may be one; as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be one in us: that the world may believe that thou hast sent me. Now you can hug a high tension switch tower cuz you can't understand how a being will exist inside another ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |

Christ is the spoken WORD of God that existed with God but was made manifest by Light Gen 1:3 And God said, Let there be light: and there was light. The spoken Word of God is God, the force behind creation and the first born of all things. nice one Phil John 17:21 King James Version (KJV) 21 That they all may be one; as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be one in us: that the world may believe that thou hast sent me. philfearon: |

Emusan: psams 8:5 NIV " You have made them a little lower than the angels(elohim=gods) and crowned them with glory and honor". Example! Gen 19:13, 18 It means God has revealed Himself to human through Jesus. Not that He himself came? |

philfearon: You also made an insinuation which I never meant. You believe God is a mystery shey? I was marvelled how you cant understand john1:1. did that place say God had a beginning? You also need an interpreter on Col. 1:15. what do you understand by the word firstborn? |

Joshthefirst: I mean completely human, completely God. God became a human being. And walked among men. Some men recognized him. Men of light. Men of darkness hated Gods light personified, because light exposed their evil deeds. Just watch yourself. Explain john1:18 in light of your comment. |

Bidam: You mean you do not worship Jesus? This is hilarious. Well, I dont worship Jesus cos of what he said. luke 4:8 In reply Jesus said to him: “It is written, ‘It is Jehovah your God you must worship, and it is to him alone you must render sacred service.’” Dont you think that the above verse supports worshipping God alone? 1 Like |

pasino26:hello mr pasino26. Good one here but let me assert that we aint here to counter motions, everyone is just dropping His or her idea on this subject matter and all i did was to drop mine too. The scripture you quoted on 'in the beginning God said, let us make man in our image...our here could imply two, three, thousands and even billions. Remember satan was part of that 'our'. Why dont you undertake a study of the book of reveltions, read between the lines and see where God reveals Himself. I love you my brother. 2 Likes |

lacum: My brother, some people need to take their time and study the scriptures. I really did want to correct the statement the young man made on my comment but kept mute. Guess he didnt read the account of creation carefully btw line. the angels n heavenly hosts were all created. Man was made in GOD's image n likeness with the breath of life from God. Jesus is Lord and God, no one can percieve the wisdom of the scriptures without the help of tge HOLY SPIRIT of GOD. the more you explain the more u confuse folks who read the bible to pass CRK in sec sch. cheers bro |

People seem †☺ really lack understanding. First of all U̶̲̥̅̊ need †☺ understand who is a "God". God is a person who is a spirit, ominipotent and ominiscient, creator and ruler of the Universe. "God is not a name of a person, "God" is a being. Just like "human is not the name of a person, "human" is a being. Anyone who is spirit, ominipotent..... Is a God and anyone who is mortal, can die, not ominipresent.... Lyk us is a "human". Get the connection? So basically the name of our father in heaven is not "God" but i†'s jehovah, elshadai,....... Ãήϑ the name of his son in heaven is Jesus. Simple. Ãήϑ both the father Ãήϑ the son Ãήϑ the holyspirit (whose name is the comforter) are ominipresent, ominiscient, spirit.... beings. Hence their all God in their being J§† lyk U̶̲̥̅̊ are all "humans" in ur being and have Ūя different names lyk dele,chioma..... So basically three beings run the universe God the father whose name is jehovah Ãήϑ his the God head, the oga at the top. Then U̶̲̥̅̊ αvє God the son whose name is Jesus who does the will of the father Ãήϑ then God the holyspirit who is on earth here Ψi† us, in us teaching us all things. Lest U̶̲̥̅̊ forgot also the bible even said that ψє all are "gods". That is those that αvє the spirit of God( the comforter) in them. |

Jesus is an example (1 Pet 2:21) of rising from humanity to divinity. He started on earth as a man--a new Adam. But He later transformed into the Son of God. How? Ph. 2:5 Your attitude should be the same as that of Christ Jesus: Ph. 2:6 Who, being in very nature [Or in the form of] God, did not consider equality with God something to be grasped, Ph. 2:7 but made himself nothing, taking the very nature of a servant, being made in human likeness. Ph. 2:8 And being found in appearance as a man, he humbled himself and became obedient to death — even death on a cross! Ph. 2:9 Therefore God exalted him to the highest place and gave him the name that is above every name, Ph. 2:10 that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, Ph. 2:11 and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. Ro. 1:1 Paul, a servant of Christ Jesus, called to be an apostle and set apart for the gospel of God — Ro. 1:2 the gospel he promised beforehand through his prophets in the Holy Scriptures Ro. 1:3 regarding his Son, who as to his human nature was a descendant of David, Ro. 1:4 and who through the Spirit of holiness was declared with power to be the Son of God, by his resurrection from the dead: Jesus Christ our Lord. God created mankind with the potential to become like God; that is, to become a god. This seems to have provoked jealousy in Lucifer, which is why he rebelled against God. Shortly after Lucifer rebelled against God, he directed his energy towards preventing mankind from utilising the full potentials God had put in him. He deceived Adam and Eve by telling them that the way to become a god is by living in disobedience to God. Adam and Eve bought the lie and mankind fell from glory. Up till today, human beings still believe that the way to become great is by living a life of disobedience to God. Satan also tempted the new Adam (Jesus Christ) and tried to get him to live a life of disobedience to God, but the new Adam refused to buy the lie. Instead, he new Adam humbled Himself before God and lived a life of perfect obedience, even to the extent of dying on the cross. God resurrected Him from death and made Him equal to God. Today, the new Adam (Jesus Christ) possesses the seven spirits of God (Rev 5:6). He is God, but not the Almighty (see 1 Cor 15:24, Rev 5:7). |

Bidam: why should i understand falsehoods. ELOHIM is not a title but a hebrew name for God. Psams 82:6 “I myself have said, ‘YOU are gods(elohim), And all of YOU are sons of the Most High." Now if we say that elohim is not a title and that it refers to the almighty, will it not mean that that psalms above is referring to Jah? but is it? think about it. 1 Like |

I dont know who taught you that it is singular in usage. It is not always so bro.
