CANTICLES:
Proverb 8:24 " I was brought forth (chuwl) " and psalm 90:2 " earth and the productive land are brought forth (chuwl)" , ?
The discussion has been about the diffrent Hebrew words for "bought forth" in proverbs 8:24 "when there were no depths I was bought forth"
and "brought forth" in Psalms 90:2 "befote the mountains were bought forth"
which you wrongly said were the same word.

The sentence being talked about in psalms was not "earth and the productive land are brought forth"
which you have twisted it around to be,
jw twists and lies, and changes the subject etc, often.

Gentleman, whats the hebrew word translated "brought forth here . " you brought forth the earth and the productive land" psalm 90:2 ?
Stop changing the matter that I posted about which is the same as lying,
you said the words for "bought forth" in those Proverbs and Psalms verses are the same words,
they are not as I showed.
Christianity Etc › Re: My Experience With A Young Christian Girl by johnw74: 2:42am On Jul 15, 2015
The Hebrew words that we get "bought forth" from can mean many things depending on what is being spoken about.

Gen_14:18 And Melchizedek king of Salem brought forth bread and wine: and he was the priest of the most high God.

King Melchizedek didn't give birth to, or create the bread and wine, he bought out bread and wine for Abraham.

In Proverbs 8:23 the Word of God, was "setup" (anointed) - in verse 24 He was "bought forth" to begin the creation of all things.

Mr John , read properly infact what you wrote above will give the person that start this thread more reason to embarass .

Psalm 90:2 " mountains were brought forth (yalad), or you brought forth (chul/chiyl) the earth and the productive land " , are u telling me this doesnt mean our earth is Created ?
What I told you is that you are wrong,
the words that "bought forth" come from in Proverbe and Psalms that you quoted
are not the same words, which you said that they are.
Read my reply to you again seeing as you didn't understand it.

CANTICLES:
Am not an atheist like the op ... But she has won you already coz its clear that the brought forth in proverb 8:24 is the same brought forth used in reference to the creation of earth and the world in psalm 90:2 . Funny enough, uv also said literally it means creation .

Christians have no problem with the Bible,
seeming contradictions are for those who hate the Truth,
that they continue to perish.

2Co 4:3 But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost:

2Co 4:4 In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.



This is what Jesus said about MizJanet:

Mat 7:6 Do not give that which is holy to the dogs; nor cast your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet and turn again and tear you.

That's exactly what she does, tramples the pearls you give her, and turns again to attack you.


You really should leave those that hate Jesus to their destiny, especially that Jesus said so.

but they too can follow Jesus and be saved

do you know that when you truly follow Jesus and do what He says
that you are no longer a homosexual or murderer or thief
but of course you have to also stop stealing etc.
Christianity Etc › Re: A Test: Do You Have The True Jesus? by johnw74: 2:54am On Jul 14, 2015
I agree with the OP
The Jesus of the Bible is to be prayed to, and not through someone else who is dead or alive
the Jesus of the Bible is to be worshipped
the Jesus of the Bible is called God, and not a god or a diffrent god as sects claim.


some even writing their own bible and changing what is said to suit their beliefs

Christians get their belief through reading the Bible
some others get their beliefs through changing it.

Trouble with belonging to orginisations is that you believe what they preach
non denominational Christians and some orginised Churches believe what they read in the Bible and as led by the Holy Spirit
which sectarians and others of false christianity do not have.

It's not clear at all, in fact it's wrong.
They are not the same word at all, you are only looking at english translations
the hebrew words in proverbs 8 for "I was brought forth" is chul chiyl
the hebrew word in psalm 90 for "bought forth" is yalad.
they both have diffrent meanings to each other, and each word has more than one meaning.

Christ will return in like manner as He was taken up,
and those alive in Christ at the rapture will be taken up as Christ was:

Act 1:9 And when he had spoken these things, while they beheld, he was taken up; and a cloud received him out of their sight.
Act 1:10 And while they looked stedfastly toward heaven as he went up, behold, two men stood by them in white apparel;
Act 1:11 Which also said, Ye men of Galilee, why stand ye gazing up into heaven? this same Jesus, which is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye have seen him go into heaven.



Mar 13:26 And then shall they see the Son of man coming in the clouds with great power and glory.

Rev 1:7 Behold, he cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see him, and they also which pierced him: and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of him. Even so, Amen.



1Th 4:17 Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air. And so we shall ever be with the Lord.

Isaiah 9:6 ►

HOW MANY EVERLASTING FATHERS DO YOU HAVE?
Jesus is from everlasting, that's not hard to understand,
the Hebrews used the term father in a great variety of senses - as a literal father, a grandfather, an ancestor, a ruler, an instructor, a chief, a king.
these are what the hebrew word for "father" mean,
I also say that He is the father of creation, but that Isaiah verse could say the everlasting King, as He was anointed king in eternity.

The everlasting King:
Psa 93:2 Thy throne is established of old: thou art from everlasting.

What is commonly called the rapture is a real event which has not happened yet

1Co 15:50 And I say this, brothers, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God, nor does corruption inherit incorruption.
1Co 15:51 Behold, I speak a mystery to you; we shall not all fall asleep, but we shall all be changed;
1Co 15:52 in a moment, in a glance of an eye, at the last trumpet. For a trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall all be changed.

1Th 4:13 But I would not have you ignorant, brothers, concerning those who are asleep, that you be not grieved, even as others who have no hope.
1Th 4:14 For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so God will also bring with Him all those who have fallen asleep through Jesus.
1Th 4:15 For we say this to you by the Word of the Lord, that we who are alive and remain until the coming of the Lord shall not go before those who are asleep.
1Th 4:16 For the Lord Himself shall descend from Heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ shall rise first.
1Th 4:17 Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air. And so we shall ever be with the Lord.
Christianity Etc › Re: Jesus Christ Is God Almighty!!!!! See Proof by johnw74: 2:02am On Jul 12, 2015
God the Word became Jesus Christ, not God the Father

Joh 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
The Word was with God = two persons, and the Word was God = God and the Word are God, not god's.

Joh 1:2 The same was in the beginning with God.
The Word was in the beginning with God:

Pro 8:22 The LORD possessed me in the beginning of his way, before his works of old.
Pro 8:23 I was set up from everlasting, from the beginning, or ever the earth was.
Pro 8:24 When there were no depths, I was brought forth; when there were no fountains abounding with water.
Pro 8:25 Before the mountains were settled, before the hills was I brought forth:
Pro 8:26 While as yet he had not made the earth, nor the fields, nor the highest part of the dust of the world.
Pro 8:27 When he prepared the heavens, I was there: when he set a compass upon the face of the depth:
Pro 8:28 When he established the clouds above: when he strengthened the fountains of the deep:
Pro 8:29 When he gave to the sea his decree, that the waters should not pass his commandment: when he appointed the foundations of the earth:
Pro 8:30 Then I was by him, as one brought up with him: and I was daily his delight, rejoicing always before him;

Joh 1:3 All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.
Joh 1:4 In him was life; and the life was the light of men.
Joh 1:5 And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.
Joh 1:6 There was a man sent from God, whose name was John.
Joh 1:7 The same came for a witness, to bear witness of the Light, that all men through him might believe.
Joh 1:8 He was not that Light, but was sent to bear witness of that Light.
Joh 1:9 That was the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world.
Joh 1:10 He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not.
Joh 1:11 He came unto his own, and his own received him not.
Joh 1:12 But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:
Joh 1:13 Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.
Joh 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.

Jesus is God, God the Word (the Son), not God the Father (God)

Joh 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

Joh 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.

I was bought forth

Pro 8:24 When there were no depths, I was brought forth; when there were no fountains abounding with water.

Proverbs 8:24 is referring to the Word of God:

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

Joh 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

We are also told that the Word is God:

Joh 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

1Ti 3:16 And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory.

God and the Word of God is two persons as Proverbs 8:22-30 and John 1:1 and many other verses show


Joh 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

The Word of God referred to in Proverbs 8:24 is also God, as the scriptures show,
and verses show that God has always existed, not created.


Psa 90:2 Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever thou hadst formed the earth and the world, even from everlasting to everlasting, thou art God.
Again showing the Word is God, and other verses show God was not created.

Pro 8:23 I was set up from everlasting, from the beginning, or ever the earth was.
The Hebrew word for "set up" means anointed as King.

Psa 93:2 Thy throne is established of old: thou art from everlasting.
The Kings Throne is established.

Proverbs 8:23 and 24 are saying the same thing, the Word of God was set up - bought forth as King.

Pro 8:22 The LORD possessed me in the beginning of his way, before his works of old.
If the LORD created the Word, then that would be a work. The LORD posessed the Word before any works at all. The Word is, along with God, Eternal.

see also 1 timothy 3:16 "GOD WAS MANIFESTED IN THE FLESH"
Jesus said that because He and the father are God, not because He and the Father are one person.
it's clear that Jesus and His Father are two persons.

Emusan:
You don't know JWs before undecided

When their own Watchtower can discredit a whole one time respected Christian 'Justin Martyr' just because Justin Martyr preached that Jesus died on the CROSS not on the STAKE as they wrongly teach.

But in their one time booklet which was blindly distributed before they realized ALL THE LIES they put inside and quickly removed it their ONLINE library titled Should you believe in Trinity? in the booklet, OVER 5 BIBLE THRASHERS WERE quoted because those people spoke against Trinity BUT THEY FAILED TO TELL THEIR AUDIENCE that not do those people only speak against Trinity BUT THE BIBLE AS A WHOLE.

That's why you see them in support of someone who doesn't believe in Bible whereas when we examine the content of both Psalms 90:2 and Proverb 8:24 the table will finally turn against them.

Firstly, the phrase BROUGHT FOURTH was used in the Bible severally which to be understood with the text that surround it.

Secondly, the phrase brought fourth as we see in case of Psalms 90:2 implies that mountains that seems to appear from eternity was actually brought fourth at a particular time just as Adam Clake put it in his commentary "Verse 2. Before the mountains were brought forth: The mountains and hills appear to have been everlasting; but as they were brought forth out of the womb of eternity, there was a time when they were not:..."

Thirdly, we must know that Proverb 8 was actually talking about the WISDOM OF GOD (and Jesus is the Wisdom of God) so it is IMPOSSIBLE for God to create His OWN wisdom, the Wisdom of God must be eternal just as God is eternal. Had it been that the person who raised the issue of Prov 8:24 paid close attention s/he would've seen this in the very text before that verse: "23 I have been established from everlasting, From the beginning, before there was ever an earth." NKJV

Psalm 90:2 says "...Even from everlasting to everlasting, You are God" which means ONLY God is from everlasting. Surprisingly, the speaker here also said "I have been ESTABLISHED from everlasting."

Fourthly, so what does it mean to BROUGHT FOURTH in case of Prov 8:24? The Wisdom of God was brought fourth Adam Clake "I was brought forth] ytllwx cholalti, "I was produced as by labouring throes."" The Wisdom of God has been in action and in use from everlasting, this agree with the prophecy of prophet Micah about the Messiah "Whose goings forth are from of old, From EVERLASTING"

Fifthly, even Atheist will agree that every creature needs SPACE and PLACE to occupy and dwell, which leads to my unanswered question by any JWs ever If Jesus is a created being, which comes first Heaven or Jesus?

Lastly, I turn this against JWs Psalm 90:2 says "...Even from everlasting to everlasting, You are God", Prov 8:23 says "I have been ESTABLISHED from everlasting." and Micah 5:2 says "Whose goings forth are from of old, From EVERLASTING"

Why did your organization conclude that God is not created by using Psalm 90:2 as support and also concluded that Jesus was created by citing Micah 5:2 in their 'what does Bible really teach booklet pg. 41' when the same word was used in the two verses?

The Hebrew word for "set up" means anointed as King.

Psa 93:2 Thy throne is established of old: thou art from everlasting.
The Kings Throne is established.

Proverbs 8:23 and 24 are saying the same thing, the Word of God was set up - bought forth as King.

Pro 8:22 The LORD possessed me in the beginning of his way, before his works of old.
If the LORD created the Word, then that would be a work. The LORD posessed the Word before any works at all. The Word is, along with God, Eternal.

MizJanet:

Buhahaha , But both can be translated " brought forth" ,isnt it ? Thats the point.

That same psalm 90:2 proves you WRONG , " the earth and the world were 'brought forth' " that same exact hebrew word used in proverb 8:24 appears here grin






*Lols*

And yet again and again you do not know what you are talking about,
the Hebrew for "bought forth" in Proverbs 8 and Psalm 90 are different words with diffrent meanings..

The mocking rc's:

Mocking God:
Syncan:
His name is daddy.
In these verses God is talking specifically about rc's

1Ti 4:1 Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils;
1Ti 4:2 Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron;
1Ti 4:3 Forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from meats, which God hath created to be received with thanksgiving of them which believe and know the truth.

the rcc forbids priests and nuns to marry
the rcc commands abstaining form meats on fridays.
