freshboi88:Frustration has set in Sorry bro The text of Isaiah 40:3 says Yahweh NOT Jesus . stop lying And Yahweh send Jesus his servant to accomplish that. Isaiah 42:1 How is that a rocket science for you ? |

Jozzy4: Shame, im taking Ur whole congregation on and this is the best u can do. My response to @ bolded. U have not understood Ur bible very well. New International Version Philippians 2:7 rather, he made himself nothing by taking the very nature of a servant, being made in human likeness. First thing first, The one described as Mighty God cannot be a servant. @ bolded Jesus coming to serve is because he decided to do so out of his love for u and i. The Bible tells us that he made himself a servant. If u r good in English that should tell u, originally he isn't a servant. New International Version Isaiah 10:21 A remnant will return, a remnant of Jacob will return to the Mighty God. Who is been referred to as Mighty God? |

Jozzy4: Are u saying the bible is Lying? Point out the verse that that calls human beings Mighty God.....no stories !!!.....nobody cares about what u think Show me the verse New International Version Isaiah 10:21 A remnant will return, a remnant of Jacob will return to the Mighty God. Since Mighty God are humans Who is the Mighty God Isaiah referred to verse 21 |

freshboi88: Ezekiel 32:21 " The mighty chiefs [ in Isaiah translated as Mighty God ] shall speak of them, with their helpers, out of the midst of Sheol: ‘They have come down, they lie still, the uncircumcised, slain by the sword.’ " ESV .

freshboi88:Philippians 2:7 again " he made himself nothing by taking the very nature of a servant, being made in human likeness " says NATURE of a Servant., Nature means form , its the human body that was described as having human nature. So because Angelic sons of God dont have the NATURE OF HUMANS, they are not servant ? Isaiah 42:1 says My servant , whom I have chosen. chosen. PAST TENSE . He chose his servant before he even came to.the earth . so Jesus was a servant before coming to earth . OUR GOD is not a servant. Thank God for revelation 7:9 1 Like 1 Share |

Jozzy4: U be real OLODO!!!!!!!!! He made himself nothing by taking the nature of a servant. Other translations would say he Emptied Himself For him to become nothing. It means he must have been something to make that choice What was he before he emptied himself....that's what should get u thinking if u had a functioning brain |
Re: Jehovah Witness, Did Jesus Create Jesus? by freshboi88: 6:56pm On May 06, 2020 |
Jozzy4: How is mighty chief and Mighty God the same thing nah.....u be real mumu o New International Version Isaiah 10:21 A remnant will return, a remnant of Jacob will return to the Mighty God. Nah simple question I ask u here o Who is the Mighty God in this verse? Naim u dey carry story come o Ansa the question nah |

freshboi88: Kid, define nature ? The reference was to his human body. Isaiah 42:1 says My Servant , whom I have CHOSEN . past tense. He was in the nature of God. This nature even humans have. Kid. And it doesnt mean they are not created , neither does it mean they are equal to God. A begotten son was produced. Has a beginning.

This my JW people can argue ehn,no wonder why most pastors will tell you to avoid them but I give it to them as they are most times somehow right |

Rozz: The pastors knew Jehovah's Witnesses are not mere Churchgoers who will just join any Church, we know why we worship and we are fully competent and completely equipped to handle God's word unlike their brainwashed members who can't defend what they believe! So they don't want you to listen to us so they don't loose their customer! |

Maximus69:customers?i don't think so,we all have different views on religion matters and I think one who is right are the ones who truly have the fear of God at heart |

Jozzy4: My point is centered on the @color part! If at this your age you can't be able to distinguish the SIMPLE PART OF SPEECH in a statement, then your education is useless and speaks volumes of your Bible interpretation. What you called PAST TENSE for your selfish interest in that verse is simply called PRESENT PERFECT TENSE which means that the action started in the past and has continued until now with LENGTH OF TIME! So if Isaiah says "My Servant whom I have CHOSEN" it means the ACTION which is 'CHOSEN' has been achieved many years ago. Now, since Isaiah is a prophetic statement it means He has been chosen times ago as a servant that's why Apostle Paul said "He took on a form of servant" just as scripture also mentioned that Jesus was a lamb SLAIN FROM FOUNDATION OF THE WORLD, which doesn't means He was killed at that time but a task to be achieved but CHOSEN/DECIDED many years ago. If Jesus has already been a servant then, Apostle Paul would have been wrong to say "He took upon him the FORM of a servant" In fact, the whole Phil 2:6-7 proves you wrong that Jesus has always been a servant because it was written plainly the FORM He existed before (GOD) and the FORM He became later (HUMAN) as servant! The reason I had to correct your ignorance is because you keep repeating that lie of PAST TENSE which means if you can have problem with simple primary school English then your level of Bible interpretation needs to be questioned. Thou very obvious all over your post! |

Emusan:Your assumption is based on the fact that having Divine nature means someone can't be a servant. Form means Nature in this context, we both agree , am focusing on the highlighted because it is what will expose your incompetency. Humans are said to be sharers of this same NATURE OF GOD, Does that mean they are not his servant or are now equal to God ? |

Re: Jehovah Witness, Did Jesus Create Jesus? by Emusan(m): 7:29am On May 07, 2020 |
Firstly, do you agree you misinterpreted Isaiah 42:1? Jozzy4: This is where you got it wrong! NOTICE this your statement "...having Divine nature means someone can't be a servant" It's obvious that you tune has changed! The center point is, what He is before and after. He was in FORM of God before taken upon the FORM OF A SERVANT. So the two statements can't be true! Form means Nature in this context, we both agree , am focusing on the highlighted because it is what will expose your incompetency. Instead you should be worried about your ignorance. Now let's substitute NATURE into Phil 2:7 and see how it exposes your ignorance. "....and took upon him, the NATURE of a servant" This simply means, he wasn't a servant before this time but at this time he possessed the NATURE of SERVANT Humans are said to be sharers of this same NATURE OF GOD, Does that mean they are not his servant or are now equal to God ? You're digressing from the main point! The point isn't whether Jesus shares divine nature but ONLY BECAME SERVANT at certain time. |
Re: Jehovah Witness, Did Jesus Create Jesus? by Jozzy4: 7:44am On May 07, 2020 |
Emusan:U must be a joke MY servant, possessive pronoun. No am not wrong. He was a servant as at when chosen. I only wanted to tackle that UNFOUNDED claim that seek to say Having divine nature means someone can't be a servant of the Most High.
If the two statements can't be true. Are human who possess divine nature EQUAL TO GOD ?
Thank God it says " NATURE of " Nature refer to a certain form or APPEARANCE. Get schooled. The verse explains it further saying " being in the likeness of men" this is the nature it was reffering. Not even angels have this nature of a servant . BUT it doesnt mean they are not servants. Does having NATURE OF GOD means someone is not a servant or someone is equal to GOD ? The trillion dollar question. |

Re: Jehovah Witness, Did Jesus Create Jesus? by Emusan(m): 8:10am On May 07, 2020 |
Jozzy4: Me a joke, coming from someone who can't distinguish between Simple Past Tense and Present Perfect Tense. So when was He chosen? If the two statements can't be true. Are human who possess divine nature EQUAL TO GOD? The verse says "...ye might be PARTAKERS of the divine nature" this is different from being in FORM of God. Thank God it says " NATURE of " Nature refer to a certain form or APPEARANCE. Get schooled. The verse explains it further saying " being in the likeness of men" this is the nature it was reffering. The problem you have is that, you don't even understand yourself. Phil 2 was about the NATURE/FORM He existed before and the NATURE/FORM he now exists. Which means He never EXISTED AS SERVANT but ONLY exists as a SERVANT when he became human.
Like I said, you're still perambulating. He existed in FORM/NATURE of God from beginning NOT AS A SERVANT, He only exists as FORM/NATURE of a servant when He became human. But to your question! ONLY GOD CAN HAVE THE NATURE OF GOD Having God's nature means you're God just as having human nature means you're a human! |
Re: Jehovah Witness, Did Jesus Create Jesus? by freshboi88: 8:15am On May 07, 2020 |
Jozzy4: Only God has Gods nature u dunce!!! The verse clearly shows a distinction between two nature's. Gods nature and Human nature The verse says Jesus dropped one and picked the other this making him a servant 1 Like |

Emusan: U can't call someone who is not your servant . My servant . that statement long before he even came to earth point to a greater truth.
Nope, partakers of what ? I ask paratakers of what ? DIVINE NATURE. GODS FORM, are they equal to God ? Yeye dey smell
Emphasis on NATURE and FORM ... Points to appearance , agreed ? Its clear you no know nothing.
So clearly then those sharing the GODS NATURE are ALL EQUAL TO GOD , accepted ? Am loving this |

Re: Jehovah Witness, Did Jesus Create Jesus? by Emusan(m): 8:42am On May 07, 2020 |
Jozzy4: The problem you're having is big, many translations reference Isa 42:1 with Phil 2:7 Why? Simply because it was that time when Christ became man that Isa 42 was fulfilled. Just like I said if ordinary primary school English is difficult for you, how can you even understand scripture? Nope, partakers of what ? I ask paratakers of what ? DIVINE NATURE. GODS FORM, are they equal to God ? They are PARTAKERS/SHARE, they don't exist in that FORM But Christ exists in God's form which only God existed. Emphasis on NATURE and FORM ... Points to appearance , agreed ? Let me quote your own translation of Phil 2 so that it can cure your ignorance! "who, although he was existing in God’s form, gave no consideration to a seizure, namely, that he should be equal to God. No, but he emptied himself and took a slave’s form and became human" Even your own translation says "WAS EXISTING in God's FORM" and went further to say "but emptied himself and took a SLAVE'S FORM" Which shows the state He was and the state He is now. So clearly then those sharing the GODS NATURE are ALL EQUAL TO GOD , accepted ? Am loving this SHARE isn't EXISTING in that FORM I even forgot you lack understand of basic English. |
Re: Jehovah Witness, Did Jesus Create Jesus? by Jozzy4: 8:43am On May 07, 2020 |
freshboi88: It was human nature that was called Nature of servant. Now you are learning. Angels don't have human nature ( nature of a servant , But are they servants ? Question 1. Question 2. Some humans by virtue of God sharing it , Also Possess the divine/GODS NATURE. ARE THEY EQUAL TO GOD ? Answer both and let's see how valid your postulations are. |
Re: Jehovah Witness, Did Jesus Create Jesus? by Jozzy4: 8:56am On May 07, 2020 |
Emusan , laughs Emusan: Isaiah 42:1 didn't say " my future servant " He was servant even the present. Grow up. The possesive MY says it all
When it was shared with them, In what Nature do they exist ?
Which Nature was shared with them ? Once shared, in what form do those humans exist ? Brain dead analogy Emusan . |
