No Sir the highlighted is what a global family of peace loving worshipers agreed upon as the truth and we are all living by it!
it is still their personal as long as such teachings never emanate from the 12 apostles, it is simply another gospel


You are talking about a serious issue that could break the group, if each of the Apostles feel like he's the greatest then the spirit of division will surely have it's place amongst them, so Jesus can't allow such case to wait!
If Jesus had left peter in error then peter would have taught those errors and then people would have believed a lie and if a contrary teaching had surface later it would have resulted in confusion and break up.



He never left them in error but there are many things he did not teach them meaning such things could wait, don't forget that teachings isn't just a game it involves thoughts and actions that must be corrected so for Jesus to have said "there are many things i need to teach you but you can't bear it now" it means such teachings will be difficult for them to grasp yet it involves things they are thinking or doing in error otherwise they don't need it! undecided
at bolded this is a contradiction, you said Jesus left peter in error which means peter would have also taught that error, it is even more dangerous with peter because Peter was the person Jesus instructed to feed the sheep in the midst of all of them and since Jesus didnt correct peter then what peter said would be taken as truth.


The holy spirit doesn't correct a single individual Sir,another misconception you churchgoers have, God's holy spirit corrects the thoughts and actions of the whole Christian congregation as a family {Act 15:1-2, 22-29} so after the agreement whoever choose not to comply is no more a member of the group! 3John :9
yo are wobbling show me where the holy spirit taught the group that Jesus is not omniscient?

The Torah tells us the way we know a true prophet in Deu 13 and Deu 18. A prophet can not teach something that is contrary to the Torah. He can do miracles, the Torah tells us that false religions can produce miraculous experiences. Deu 13 tells us that false prophets will be able to do miracles, actually they will be able to do miraculous things. However if they tell you about an elohim(god) your fathers did not know and they tell you do not follow the commandments, I didn't send them says the Most High, I'm only testing you to see if you love Me. The test is, whoever did the miraculous sign, are they teaching adherence to Torah or are they bringing in something new.

Jesus is not a servant but took the form of a servant.

Philippians 2:7 But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men:



I believe this is one of the most compelling truth about Jesus deity is Philippians 2.
He made himself of no reputation, meaning he had a reputation, his reputation was not taken away but he willing veiled it.
He took the form by himself he didnt has the form of a servant before taking that form
When he took the form of a servant, he was made a human.
Christ was took the position of a servant before he was sent.

Christ cannot be angel micheal because angel Michael is a servant, Michael cannot take the form of what he is already.

Before Jesus took the form of a servant he was not a servant
For him to be a servant, less than the father he had to take that form.

Take note, he took the form of a servant before he was made in the likeness of men.

The Angels including Michael are by their form servants,

Hebrews 1:14
Are they not all ministering spirits, sent forth to minister for them who shall be heirs of salvation?

Jws take is that the holy spirit is God's power in action (Gen 1:2).
Blasphemy against his active force/power is blasphemy against him.

That's nice, so if blasphemy against a force which is God's power means blasphemy against God, then why worshipping the same FORCE is wrong?

It's not a person/entity

But it's God, right?

Jesus taught them what to preach and teach in the public about God's Kingdom, that's because that message is in the Hebrew Scriptures (Old Testament) already, Jesus only helped them to be tolerant with their message.
But as for what they will continue to teach amongst themselves Jesus told them that the holy spirit will continue to guide them on that! John 14:26

After Jesus' death and assenssion to heaven they stopped preaching and teaching until the holy spirit came to anoint them for the work ahead, that's because they needed to be fearless now that their leader won't be with them again in the flesh to lead them in facing the critics who always disturb them in the preaching work, secondly they must have the same line of thought so those taking the lead need to be taught what will keep the group as one family. All these won't be possible if those leading the group teach different opinions.

So Jesus told them what will happen if they're not allowing the holy spirit to teach them, there will be confusion and division to the extent that the group will not be united. But if they allow the holy spirit to teach them there will be unity this will help the group as a whole to cultivate LOVE, JOY, PEACE, PATIENCE, GOODNESS, GENTLENESS, FAITH, MILDNESS and SELF-CONTROL! John 17:20-23
Surely the spirit of division arise but the Apostles were fully prepared and vigilant that the spirit of division can't disrupt their LOVE, JOY and PEACE until Satan arranged that all of them were killed.

Ever since then true Christianity was lost, that's why all of you can't form one GROUP with one line of thought like the first century Christian congregation, because the tradition you're now following wasn't what the early Christians laid down!
You will notice that it's only against Jehovah's Witnesses that you all come together to speak but if let alone there is no agreement on teaching! Luke 11:23

As for what the holy spirit teaches about Jesus' identity Jehovah's Witnesses believed that this mighty spirit being is the archangel Michael, that shouldn't cause any problem because Jesus said those who are taught by God's holy spirit will be noticed globally as one big and happy family of peace loving worshipers! Matthew 5:13-16; John 13:34-35, 17:20-23 compared to Isaiah 2:2-4

That's why i keep asking you guys to present the group representing Jesus' global family after all Jesus foretold what interested persons should look out for to IDENTIFY his group!

All these are irrelevant,
Just because it doesnt suit you, you said peter was in error when he said Jesus knows all things, so you know more than peter who has seen Christ.

peter and the other apostles saw Christ glory and
They testified of it.

John 1:14
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.

Yes peter testified that Christ knew all things, Jesus never allowed his disciples to believe any error because that would turned all Jesus teaching to be a lie.

John 1:14
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.

Hebrews 2:9
But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels for the suffering of death, crowned with glory and honour; that he by the grace of God should taste death for every man.


Jesus took on flesh and became a human, he was a little lower than the angels hence limited as a human but not as God.
Jesus could at limit himself to his humanity only.


Jesus is the created all things and without him not a single created thing can exist

You claim Jesus "limit himself to his humanity only", therefore this question is begging for answer:
According to your claim at John 16:30, How can he know all things since his humanity limits him?
Your claim made mockery of limitations of his humanity cheesy
Your claim Very incoherent.

Vs 16-18, the disciples expressed their lacking understanding of Jesus teaching

The disciples never said anything about omniscience.

livingchrist:



Jesus is the created all things and without him not a single created thing can exist

#objection# But God created Jesus first and then used him to create all other things as stated in proverb 8:22

Proverbs 8:22 The LORD possessed me in the beginning of his way, before his works of old.




*answer* proverb 8 is a poetic language describing the superiority of wisdom abover every other thing.
Let's look at the hebrew interpretation of that verse,

Lexicon
The LORD
יְֽהוָ֗ה (Yah·weh)
Noun - proper - masculine singular
Strong's Hebrew 3068: LORD -- the proper name of the God of Israel

possessed me
קָ֭נָנִי (qā·nā·nî)
Verb - Qal - Perfect - third person masculine singular | first person common singular
Strong's Hebrew 7069: To erect, create, to procure, by purchase, to own

at the beginning
רֵאשִׁ֣ית (rê·šîṯ)
Noun - feminine singular construct
Strong's Hebrew 7225: The first, in place, time, order, rank

of His work,
דַּרְכּ֑וֹ (dar·kōw)
Noun - common singular construct | third person masculine singular
Strong's Hebrew 1870: A road, a course of life, mode of action

before
קֶ֖דֶם (qe·ḏem)
Noun - masculine singular construct
Strong's Hebrew 6924: The front, of place, time

His deeds
מִפְעָלָ֣יו (mip̄·‘ā·lāw)
Noun - masculine plural construct | third person masculine singular
Strong's Hebrew 4659: A work, something made

of old.
מֵאָֽז׃ (mê·’āz)
Preposition-m | Adverb
Strong's Hebrew 227: At that time, place, therefore

The word qanani has a host of meaning, the meaning of a particular word is determined not just by its dictionary meaning but also by the context or place in which it is used, in other words we must consider the combined words and its purpose to expolate its meaning.
While the word qanani can mean, create, possess, to erect, etc the whole of this poetry do not suggest God literally creating wisdom but putting wisdom as the prime quality in all his doings.


The word translated as works is darker which means a course of life, or the way a person lives.

Can you take it to mean wisdom was created before God's principles or God's way of life, that means before wisdom was created God did not have any principle, meaning Jehovah was not God before wisdom was created, certainly not so there must be another interpretation, Which is Jehovah set wisdom as his first principle before others.

So wisdom was never created and if wisdom was never created Jesus who is the wisdom of God was also never created.

Feel free to drop your question in a civil way to avoid ignominy and derailment.

Let's conclude on this and let it rest.

Over 8,700,000 people from different races under the heavens today agreed that God's holy spirit will continue to enlighten them at the proper time not individually but as a global family and they are doing well as one big and happy family of peace loving worshipers, progressively they're gathering more and more peace lovers teaching them how to stay away from violence in the name of the Prince of Peace! Matthew 28:19-20
Well i believe God's holy spirit is evident in that arrangement than over forty one thousand different religions claiming one yet they're divided in opinions due to their misconception that God's holy spirit is teaching individuals whereas this individuals keep forming different groups to teach them contradicting theories all in the name of God's holy spirit.
Jesus said there is a type of sin that will never be forgiven, lying against a human being that he said so many contradicting things could be taken lightly since we are imperfect and most times we do mix up what our fellow man say with our own imagination {Matthew 26:59-61} Jesus said this type of sin will be forgiven {Luke 23:34} but when people raises their tongue to say mixed things in the name of God's holy spirit Jesus said they will not be forgiven! Matthew 12:31-32
WHY will God who wants all sort of flesh to be saved refuse to forgive?
Well this is because God has never for once teach contradicting theories that will bring reproach to his holy name, so his spirit supposed to unite his true worshipers not make them contradict one another! {Isaiah 2:1-4 Compared to Zephaniah 3:9} today all of you belongs to different religions but you're all claiming Christians!
Muslims, Buddhists, Traditionalists even atheists and agnostics can see the way you people argue, insult, abuse even curse one another due to the contradictions, yet you people have continued doing this in the name of God's holy spirit! embarassed Claiming this spirit is the one teaching you guys individually and thus causing more division amongst you.
That's why Jehovah's holy spirit separated his true worshipers {Revelation 18:4} and gave them a unique name {Isaiah 65:15} so that honest hearted and sincere individuals can see and testify to the power of God's holy spirit in the midst of God's people (Jehovah's Witnesses) John 17:20-23
I'll rest my case here Sir, may you have PEACE! smiley

As for proverb 8vv22

Proverbs 8:22 The LORD possessed me in the beginning of his way, before his works of old.

Qanani has a host of meaning, and like most word the meaning of which depends on the context used.

Did Yaweh create wisdom? If yahweh created wisdom then that would mean there was a time in which yahweh lack wisdom.

Qanani also mean, set up, establish or ordained, put in place,
The context again would determine which meaning it has.
Secondly, Yahweh posssed me (wisdom) in the beginning of his way

The word translated as way is darkow, which is different from works or created things or things that are made which is translated as mifalav.

Darkow means the behaviour or principle of a person or the character of a person.
Ok let us go back and fix everything in place.

The Lord created/possess/setup/ordained/establish me in the beginning of his principle/manner of doing/plan/creativity things before his creation of old.




Now the word created loses its literal meaning because the way of God is from everlasting. For the word way was in singular which is the collective approach of God towards all things.

If it is taken as creation, the wisdom would be created before God's approach, meaning even before God made any move to create anything at all wisdom was already there, then by which principle did God used to create wisdom, if wisdom was created before his principle?

Rather,it is the Lord ordained me as the most important or chief of his way before his creation.
This means that wisdom was ordained before God's creation again ruling out the notion that wisdom was created.

no, Trinitarians believe in Jesus God manship, Jesus is 100% God and 100%man.
So he possesses both characteristics.

He knew all things as God but limited as man,
As man he is inferior to the father but as God He is equal to the father,
Jesus remained so after his resurrection hence Jesus body didnt undergo any decay/dissolution,
Hence remains a God-man forever.

When Jesus told them that there were certain things the father had kept in his power, so Jesus wouldnt through his divinity reveal to them.

There are so many scriptures that counters this claim. Below are some of them


Matthew 26:39
Going a little farther, he fell with his face to the ground and prayed, “My Father, if it is possible, may this cup be taken from me. Yet not as I will, but as you will.”

John 16:23
In that day you will no longer ask me anything. Very truly I tell you, my Father will give you whatever you ask in my name.

John 5:19
Yahushua gave them this answer: “Very truly I tell you, the Son can do nothing by himself; he can do only what he sees his Father doing, because whatever the Father does the Son also does.

John 6:38
For I have come down from heaven not to do my will but to do the will of him who sent me.

John 12:49

All these things are so because took upon him the form of a servant, as a servant and a man he must totally depend on the father without doing his will, as a servant he will not honor himself but only recieve glory and honor from the father.

Philippians 2:7
But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men:

If Jesus took upon him the form of a servant then he must be less than the father only because he took that form.

Interesting, I was expecting this all this while.

Let's do the Maths ...

Holy spirit a person different from the Father knows. In short, Jesus lied that ONLy the Father knows ?

Jesus didnt mention the holy spirit, so only the father please strictly to the group comprises of Jesus, men, and Angels, what is common with this group is that they are all creatures or atleast became part of creation.

You couldn't counter that part, yet you said you're expecting.

So what are you expecting

Jesus didn't lie, rather it's you the lying liar like your father the devil that knows how to lie perfectly.

Here is the question again:

Then how can The Holy Spirit who SEARCHETH ALL THINGS of God and know the very MIND of God won't know the day?

Coming from a deluded JWs who believes that Jehovah is all-knowing but can selectively use that attribute.

Which means Jehovah can choose to know something and also choose not to know.

We can as well say Jehovah is lying.

But see them foaming in their lying mouth about Jesus!

According to livingchrist Peter was truthful for saying Jesus knows everything {John 21:17} but Jesus is a deceiver for saying only the father knows everything! Matthew 24:36
These guys just feel like arguing with JWs the real motive behind all these is their rebellious hearts they just don't want to be submissive. Try to watch them closely when they converge in one thread to have a discussion about submission, then you'll see how confused and divided they are.
It's only when they come in contact with JWs that they want to prove they're one. There is nothing that they agreed upon that JWs don't believe.
Jesus is God's only begotten son✓
Jesus was sent by his father and God✓
Jesus is Lord (over God's sheep)✓
What this one is trying to establish is never agreed upon in all trinitarian churches!
Professed Trinitarians themselves are confused and divided on the identity of Jesus, though they all love and bow to TRINITY but when it comes to expatiate on the Topic, some will tell you "Jehovah and Jesus are different persons" some will say "Jehovah is the same person called Jesus"
Even when it comes to the holy spirit trinitarians can't come up with the same line of thought!

So he is just blabbing, ask each of them to tell you the name of their Church to verify if what they are saying is agreed upon, then you'll know that they're just rebellious no teaching binds them together for real! undecided
