brocab:1. Good to know you accept that jesus is God's master worker. 2. Did I ever tell you or say that I do not believe John 1:1?, brocab stop making false accusations ok! It really shows you have not understood Paul's statement, Paul didn't say Jesus was created-He said Jesus was the first born of all creation {Colossians 1:15-21}1. you yourself read that he is the image of the invisible God, common sense should tell you that jesus is not that invisible God, your image is a reflection of you, your image is not you. 2. I'll give you an example about image from the scriptures below Ge 5:3Adam lived for 130 years and then became father to a son in his likeness, in his image, and he named him Seth. Did you read that verse, do you see it that seth is the image of Adam? Look at the following facts 1. seth is the image of Adam 2. seth is a human just like Adam 3. seth is not the same human as Adam 4. seth is not the same man as Adam 5. Adam and seth are both humans but not same human 6. Adam was not said to be seths image, why? cus Adam is before seth! APPLY THIS FACTS ABOVE TO JESUS BEING THE IMAGE OF GOD AND COME TO A BETTER UNDERSTAND! The word of {John 1:1} is a divine person, not a philosophical obstruction, in the incarnation, the invisible God became visible in Christ, deity was clothed in humanity {Matthew 17:2}Are you saying that jesus and the invisible God are the same person? moreover the scriptures never said it was the invisible God that became flesh, it was the word, who was with God , that became flesh. The invisible God became visible?, how come, cus jesus himself said no one has seen God AT ANY TIME! We know God sent someone, we know God did not send himself!, so the notion that the visible God became visible is a BIG LIE!, THE SCRIPTURES NEVER TAUGHT US THAT! God is in Christ, Visible, audible, approachable, knowable, and available, All that God is, Christ is.1. If God is in Christ, it automatically means that God is not Christ! 2. All that God is jesus is? BIG LIE, God cannot die, jesus died, God cannot be killed, jesus was killed. The description "first born of all creation" speaks of Christ preexistence. He is not a creature, but a eternal creator {John 1:10} God created the World though Christ, and redeemed the world though Christ {Hebrews 1:2-4} Note that Jesus is called the first born-not the first created, the "Word first born" Greek word {"prototokos"} signifies prior.1. God created the world through Christ it means that Christ and God are not the same person. 2. jesus was called firstborn of all creation, not just firstborn. This signifies that among those created, jesus was the first!, first to be created. God created jesus in the beggining! King James Version Re 3:14And unto the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write; These things saith the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation of God 3. Strong's Concordance prototokos: first-born Original Word: πρωτότοκος, ον Part of Speech: Adjective Transliteration: prototokos Phonetic Spelling: (pro-tot-ok'-os) Short Definition: first-born Definition: first-born, eldest 4. The first born of a beast is a beast the firstborn of man is a man the firstborn of creation is a creation you cannot be firstborn without BEING BORN! In the culture of the Ancient Near East, the first born was not necessity the oldest child, first born referred not to order but to rank. The first born possessed the inheritance and leadership. Therefore the phase expresses Christ sovereignty over creation. After resurrecting Jesus from the dead, God gave authority over the earth {Matthew 28:18} Jesus created the world, saved the world, and rules the world, He is a self-existed knowledged head of creation. Finely the phase recognise Him as the Messiah, I will make Him {Christ} My first born, higher then the kings of the earth {Psalms 89:27} 6 times is declared to be the first born of God {Romans 8:29, Colossians 1:15, 18, Hebrews 1:6, 12:23, and Revelation 1:5} These passages declare the preexistence, the sovereignty and the redemption that Christ offers.1. Yes, the first born is not necessarily the oldest child, but the firstborn is a child!, a child of who he is the firstborn, he is firstborn cus he was born! 2. If it refers to rank , it revers to rank of those who where born! 3. Christ possessed the inheritance and leadership because God gave it to him, to bring all thing to himself, subject all, including jesus to himself! 4. since you cannot inherit what you already have, it shows that jesus is not God! 5. If God gave jesus authority over the earth, it means jesus is not the God who gave him authority! 6. No verse in the scriptures has ever jesus self existed, you always have to put a lot of man made theories that cannot be proven with the scriptures. 7. jesus has a head! his head is God, jesus is not the head of himself! 8. brocab, you refuse to tell us who made jesus his first born! 9. In that post, I made no mention of YHWH, Nor did I mention "jehovah". so stop trying to accuse me of explaining something I did not talk about in the post, if you want explanation, go to the post where I gave explanation of God's name. note: it can be seen that you could not say anything about the fact that your one God is different from the one God of jesus and the disciples! 2 Likes |

johnw74: don't deny it , further denial will only show your true character the more , I've provided you with date and time that you made a false accusation against dolphin heart, it has been proven to be false accusation, a Christian should apologise when shown his wrong ways. Just a couple of recent examples of your lying accusing and confusion oh entrenched oneIf it's true that Johnw74 made that statement you ascribe to him, pls show us where by telling us the time and date such statement was made secondly do you agree with such statement?, that jehovah does not mean God? I'll like to know if Johnw74 truly made such statement( TIME AND DATE SO IT CAN BE CHECKED), and if you believe such statement. Secondly, dolphinheart is right to say he never said those words, therefore Johnw74 accusation that he made that statement is false! johnw74 accusation on Nov 6, 6:13 pm reads: "You say Jehovah means the name of God but Jehovah doesn't mean God, ha ha" johnw74 accusation above have been proven to be false. ha ha forever confusedGood that you accept that jehovah is the name of God, the God of jesus, the most high God, the one who jesus sits beside , the name of the one who exalted jesus, WHO JESUS IS SUBJECTED TO, THE HEAD AND GOD OF JESUS, THE ALMIGHTY GOD 1 Like |

Lets prove how wrong you are-I will ask you this question {John 1:1} In the beginning was the word, and the word was with God, and the word was God. Or {John 1:1} In the beginning was the word, and the word was with God, and the word was a god. Which of these have you denied from the past? Read {Revelation 3:14} again, Jesus was there at the beginning of creation of God-He wasn't created by God. Shame on you Dolphinheart because you don't believe in truth-and because you own bible doesn't produce any-you would rather twist the word of God, trying to sound right for you. {Isaiah 9:6} For unto us a child is born, unto us a Son is given, and the Government shall be upon His shoulder, and His NAME shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The Mighty God, the everlasting Father, The Prince of peace. Every verse, every scripture, and every Word that shows that Christ is God, I believe... Haven't you heard-Fear not them that kill the body, but can not kill the soul, but rather fear Him, which is able to destroy both soul and body in Hell {Matthew 10:28} I am saying I and the Father are One.. And the scriptures did teach us that, the invisible God became visible, can't you read, the Word was with God, and the word was God And you are claiming you haven't denied {John 1:1} Hmmmm.. And a Son shall be born, and He shall be Called Immanual-meaning God with us.{Matthew 1:23} dolphinheart: 1 Like |

As silly as you sound every time you quote, everything is always a problem to you. Can't you read God said let US make man in Our own image-who was God talking too? Who was Adam preferring too-when He said: he saw the Lord God walking in the Garden-how many People did Adam see? And the scriptures tells us no-one has seen God at any time, so who did Adam hear and see? {Proverbs 8:22-30} is above your mentality-the word is God {John 1:1} {Genesis 1:1} At the beginning the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters, and God said let there be Light. {John 1:1} The word is God... dolphinheart: 1 Like |

Another Lair bites the dust, here is the Scripture-{Genesis 3:8} And they heard the voice of the Lord God walking in the Garden in the cool of the day, and the man and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the Lord God among the trees of the Garden. Presence means, one or many. If I was to stand in the presence of somebody openly he will see me, if I was to hide from them, I am either looking at them, or I know which direction he is coming from. Because I am feeling His presence. And with common sense-I can't be hiding if we are having along conversation with each other.. {Genesis 3:8-11}Not only was the Lord God in the garden, the devil was also in there too. If the scriptures tell us no-one had seen God at anytime. Then who was it, that Adam hid himself from their presence. {Genesis 8:22} The Lord God said the man has become like One of Us, to know good and evil. For a JW, you should have all the answers to this verse {One of Us?} First of all-He said let Us make man in our own image Does this scripture ring a bell {John 1:1} In the beginning was the word, and the word was with God-and the word was God. And the word is Jesus {John 1:14} But of course you wouldn't believe in such truth. "Dickhead" show me where in {Proverbs 8:31} it said the master builder?

dolphinheart:@bold dolphinheart arguing with Jehovah. Isaiah 43:10 Ye are my witnesses, saith the LORD, and my servant whom I have chosen: that ye may know and believe me, and understand that I am he: [b]before me there was no God formed, neither shall there be after me.[/color] Isaiah 43:12 [color=#990000]I have declared, and have saved, and I have shewed, when there was no strange god among you: therefore ye are my witnesses, saith the LORD, that I am God. Isaiah 44:6 Thus saith the LORD the King of Israel, and his redeemer the LORD of hosts; I am the first, and I am the last; and beside me there is no God. Isaiah 44:8 Fear ye not, neither be afraid: have not I told thee from that time, and have declared it? ye are even my witnesses. Is there a God beside me? yea, there is no God; I know not any. Isaiah 45:5 I am the LORD, and there is none else, there is no God beside me: [/b]I girded thee, though thou hast not known me: Isaiah 45:22 Look unto me, and be ye saved, all the ends of the earth: for[b] I am God, and there is none else. These are not my words but Jehovah's words yet false witnesses are arguing with him. Christians are the true with witnesses because we hold the truth. Only Jehovah is the true God all others are false the god of this world is a false god just a mere idol nothing more but false witnesses loves to call him God because he is their god.
