obadiah777: OGA JO HE AINT FOLLOWING THE CHRIST THE MAN. THATS CARNAL. THE MAN IS JUST THE TEMPLE OF THE WORD.

JOHN 1 VS 14 And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth. <<<< THATS THE CHRIST HE IS FOLLOWING. THE WORD. WHEN YOU GO TO CHURCH ARE YOU WORSHIPPING THE BUILDING ?

So who was he following?

obadiah777: THIS IS WHY IT IS A SIN TO MAKE ANY GRAVEN IMAGES TO THE MAN. EXODUS 20 VS 4 Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above,

YOU ARE SUPPOSED TO FOLLOW THE WORDS IN THE BIBLE. THIS IS WHAT JESUS IS. THE WORD, NOT THE MAN. FOLLOWING THE MAN IS IDOLATRY

REVELATION 19 VS 13 And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God <<< HIS NAME IS THE WORD OF GOD WHICH IS THE BIBLE

JOHN 1 VS 14 And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth. <<< THE WORD WAS MADE FLESH. OK SO THE WORD SUPERSEDES THE FLESH OF THE MAN. SO TRYING TO WORSHIP THE MAN IS IDOLATRY. THE WORD IS WHAT YOU ARE SUPPOSED TO BE FOLLOWING.

IN CONCLUSION-DO NOT FOLLOW THE MAN. THIS IS CARNAL. FOLLOW THE WORD.


YOU ARE SUPPOSED TO FOLLOW THE WORDS IN THE BIBLE.

Which bible are you talking about? Please advise.

JOHN 1 VS 14 And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.

JOHN 1 VS 1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God

LET ME ADD ONE MORE

EXODUS 20 VS 4 Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above,


EXODUS 20 VS 4 Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above,

Then can you explain: Exodus 25:18 And thou shalt make two cherubims of gold, of beaten work shalt thou make them, in the two ends of the mercy seat.

PastelChic: ..YES, THE LORD JESUS CHRIST IS GOD ALMIGHTY...Who else can claim to be THE ALPHA AND OMEGA, I AM?...Remember Jesus Christ the same Yesterday, Today and Forevermore.. + check out 1 Timothy 3 vs 16.

Huh, come again...
John 12:49-50 For I have not spoken on My own authority; but the Father who sent Me gave Me a command, what I should say and what I should speak. 50 And I know that His command is everlasting life. Therefore, whatever I speak, just as the Father has told Me, so I speak.”

Can you explain what you mentioned in light of what Jesus himself said. Not Paul or Peter, or anyone else. What Jesus the Christ said.

check out 1 Timothy 3 vs 16
I did, "God" is not in the original manuscripts. But I'm not a scholar and please don't take my word for it, please look it up. If you read the NKJV you will find an "e" next to God, which indicates the "it reads who" Notice it reads, "who" NOT "God"

But like I said, please don't take my word for it.

Thanks in advance.

ATMC: This is contrary to his words to peter. If we aint supposed to follow him why then did he tell peter 'follow me'. Again, he says he's d way to d father and that nobody comes to d father except by him jesus...paul says follow me as i follow christ, even paul did d 'following'...by the way, how can one follow jesus outside of d word of god? You err bruv
1. The man jesus didn't ask you to follow him-,as in worship his every move like Christians do- he only sought to have you follow his words. Follow his examples. " Ye are gods. Sons and daughters of the creator, he said , anything I can do you can as well. But if you don't and can't believe this fact or in yourselves/abilities as gods who can by faith do and have anything ,then follow me- words/deeds/example etc- .. and Through me, by following my example ,words etc you will get to heaven/self actualization .. follow my example and you will be saved- from sin/ignorance .. follow me and you will find peace- and end the suffering etc etc..

He never ever asked to be worshipped or even revered. Jesus is god. But he is god just like everyone of us..he was god made man, but so is everyone of us.. he attained self actualization while in physicality and so can you( you can follow your own path- the best option- or follow his example if there need be )...

2. The whole i am the way to the father and no one comes to the father except through me mantra has been misunderstood or should I say misinterpreted for glaringly obvious reasons by Christians( but thats for another day).. nevertheless what i am going to do is reveal/ break down something very basic(imo) to you and hopefully lead you to the core of what jesus actually meant...

So here it is..
a) the kicker is, what most Christians actually denote as God the father is THOUGHT - the first level of creation..it is from THoUght or the father, where all things come.. nothing is ever created without it first originating from the father - it is impossible

a) the SON is actually word/words or The word.. the word/son is THOUGHT/ father expressed. the begotten son of the father /thought .. so God the son is the word- no disputing this since most Christians already know this- except they erroneously only associate jesus as the WORD.

C) the so called holy spirit is deeds or action.. actions are words moving or words in motion- the power of the word or the manifestation of the word/ son( there is where you get the whole " and the word/son became flesh..."wink...

The three levels or process of creation is the holy trinity- father, son and holy spirit ...

So what was jesus really saying? Well how do you get to the father.. how do you get to know the thoughts of someone. How do you know someone's intents/thoughts dreams/goals, image-nation, fears etc ? .. you discern or know by listening to their son/words or action/deeds-

So yes he was and is right- no one gets to the father except through the son. If you have seen the son, then you have seen the father..the son and the father are one and the same..

These are not esoteric truths but basic truths that the enlightened being you call jesus was teaching...

Please explain to me how it is possible to follow Christ without following his words. Is Christ a Man? Do we worship flesh? Didnt He say that He and the Father were one? What happens to the Trinity then? (mind u, I'm not a Catholic.) If u talk about worshiping images or any other physical represantation of God, I'm with u on that one. But any other strange and crazy technicalities dreamt up after a night of Hallicunations with Psychdelic drugs... U are on your own oh! How do u explain your theory to a newly born again Christain? We shud pray to the word, abi? And end our prayers with In The Words name, amen!! SMH!

well if you put it like that.. but this begs the question what really is your definition of worship..

You are right about created in the image thing but understand that treating another as you want to be treated should have nothing to do with worshipping God.. you're in effect saying that not treating others as yourself means you are not worshipping God.. But the point is God needs no worship of any kind ... There is a reason why you should treat others as you would want to be treated and it has nothing or little to do with worshipping God..

I don't really do arguments god sister.. I do discussions. And do see yourself as not having enough knowledge because you do.. what you lack is understanding. For instance most of you believe and rightly so that Gods love is unconditional and yet in one sentence say He knows his children? - as in the believers.. well what about the unbelievers ? What those are not his children as well? She loves unconditionally and yet has an all exclusive club? .

She loves unconditionally and yet has the need to punish those who disbelief? An omnipotent being actually has a lack? .. doesn't make any sense does it? See religion is a fallacy and makes a mockery of the infinite creator but because the masses are not thinking due to so called threat of hell, you believe everything they tell you without questioning these obvious contradictions ...

So if you want to discuss we will but I will not feed anything to you as I will be infringing on your freewill..
