Moses never saw God's face but his back which translates to his past, but not his future |

visijo:King James the bisexual King who edited the bible to suit himself? But the same bible said Abraham saw his face. So you see you are contradicting that part. Just say you don't know. |

Exodus 24:9-11King James Version (KJV) 9 Then went up Moses, and Aaron, Nadab, and Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel: 10 And they saw the God of Israel: and there was under his feet as it were a paved work of a sapphire stone, and as it were the body of heaven in his clearness. 11 And upon the nobles of the children of Israel he laid not his hand: also they saw God, and did eat and drink. |

obongkaks:Alright. First is, doesn't the bible teach forgiveness and shuns against favouritism? If so, why did Elijah command beasts to eat up little kids who called him a bald headed man instead of him getting hold of the rod and striking them with it as a measure of correction? And why then did God not also simply eliminate aaron and his wife for squaring up against moses? I mean what's the essence of telling christians to practise the habit of forgiveness, if a prophet of God couldn't do same? |

Zoharariel:Thanks for these info. That is where the bible stories were plagiarized from. I have only stopped making reference to Enlil and enkhidu because most Nigerians haven't got a clue about them. They think the bible stories are the original |

9jatatafo:So who did they offer burnt/roasted animals/offering to? A spirit god eating roasted animals? Can you explain that? |
| Re: Did Moses See God Or Was Timothy Wrong About No One Being Able To see God? by Boss13: 11:48am On Aug 14, 2016 |
Drefan:And one wonders why people quote it as an authority. |
| Re: Did Moses See God Or Was Timothy Wrong About No One Being Able To see God? by 9jatatafo(m): 11:51am On Aug 14, 2016 |
ifenes:It is the aroma of the burnt/roasted animal offerings that was pleasing to GOD. GOD is a spirit. No where in the Bible says GOD ate the animals that were burnt/roasted. |

9jatatafo:So what happened to the meat? Why does the bible god need to smell dead animal? I bet he smelled the meal Abraham cooked for him right? |

kobosmalls:. 1 Corinthians 3:18-20 Let no one deceive himself. If anyone among you thinks that he is wise in this age, let him become a fool that he may become wise. For the wisdom of this world is folly with God. For it is written, “He catches the wise in their craftiness,” and again, “The Lord knows the thoughts of the wise, that they are futile.” 19. 2 Timothy 3:16-17 All Scripture is inspired by God and is useful to teach us what is true and to make us realize what is wrong in our lives. It corrects us when we are wrong and teaches us to do what is right. God uses it to prepare and equip his people to do every good work. |

kobosmalls:My friend its quite unfortunate you are also amongst those who think they can mock the word of God. No matter the explanation you get, you can't see what's right in front of you as long as you keep viewing the word of God from your mortal perspective. 2 Timothy 3:16-17 All Scripture is inspired by God and is useful to teach us what is true and to make us realize what is wrong in our lives. It corrects us when we are wrong and teaches us to do what is right. God uses it to prepare and equip his people to do every good work. By the way let me chip this in for you, and let it sink well into your mind and thoughts, THE NUMBER ONE ENEMY OF MAN IS THE DEVIL, AND THE BIBLE MADE US KNOW THE DEVIL HIS WISE AND CRAFTY IN HIS OWN WAY, RIGHT THERE YOU THOUHT YOU ARE A GENIOUS BY THINKING THE BIBLE IS CONTRADICTING ITSELF Right!!! JUST AS WISE AS THE DEVIL HIS AND HIS DOOM AS BEEN PROPHESIED SO WILL ALL THOSE WHO THINK THEY ARE WISE IN THEIR OWN STRENGHT BE DOOMED. MY ADVICE IF YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND A THING ABOUT GOD AND NOT EVEN BIBLE OR KORAN NOW,ASK FOR ENLIGHTENMENT AND NEVEE MOCK GOD... Good luck |

Drefan:If u go back in time to Genesis, u will see God relating with man on the basis of grace. Case in point, Adam and Eve sinned but God never punished them, rather he came down to them and even killed an animal to cloth them. CAIN killed Abel and God never punished Cain rather he placed a mark on Cain so that no one wud kill him. Abraham was an Idol worshipper but God still called him and blessed him and his descendants. All was well untill Man asked for the law. The law came to expose the faults of man and each fault stipulated punishments. How ever Jesus came to fulfill the requirement of the law cos man was helpless as Regards the law. |

kobosmalls:Pls, there is something u need to correct in the topic of the post, it made it sound like Timothy as a person said what u quoted. It wasn't Timothy but Paul. 1 Timothy was the first letter Paul wrote to Timothy, his convert. Timothy never wrote any book in the Bible. Maybe u say, ".....was 1 Timothy wrong about no one being able to see God?" |

GOD The supreme Governor of the universe and the Father of mankind. We learn from the revelations that have been given that there are three separate persons in the Godhead: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost. From latter-day revelation we learn that the Father and the Son have tangible bodies of flesh and bone and that the Holy Ghost is a personage of spirit without flesh and bone (D&C 130:22–23). When one speaks of God, it is generally the Father who is referred to; that is, Elohim. All mankind are His children. The personage known as Jehovah in Old Testament times, and who is usually identified in the Old Testament as LORD (in small capitals), is the Son, known as Jesus Christ, and who is also a God. Jesus works under the direction of the Father and is in complete harmony with Him. All mankind are His brethren and sisters, He being the eldest of the spirit children of Elohim. Many of the things that the scripture says were done by God were actually done by the Lord (Jesus). Thus the scripture says that “God created the heaven and the earth” (Gen. 1:1), but we know that it was actually the Lord (Jesus) who was the creator (John 1:3, 10), or as Paul said, God created all things by Christ Jesus (Eph. 3:9). The Holy Ghost is also a God and is variously called the Holy Spirit, the Spirit, the Spirit of God, etc. Although God created all things and is the ruler of the universe, being omnipotent, omniscient, and omnipresent (through His Spirit), mankind has a special relationship to Him that differentiates man from all other created things: man is literally God’s offspring, made in His image, whereas all other things are but the work of His hands (Acts 17:28–29). The God of the scriptures is a holy being. Man is commanded to be holy because God is holy (Lev. 11:44–45; 19:2). God can be known only by revelation. He must be revealed or remain forever unknown (Mosiah 4:9). God first revealed Himself to Adam (Moses 5–6) and has repeatedly made Himself known by revelation to chosen patriarchs and prophets since that time. The present translation of John 1:18 and 1 Jn. 4:12 is misleading, for these say that no man has ever seen God. However, the scriptures state that there have been many who have seen Him. The JST corrects these items to show that no one has seen God except through faith and also that Jesus Christ is the only Way to God (JST John 1:19 [Appendix or John 1:18 note c]; JST 1 Jn. 4:12 [1 Jn. 4:12 note a]). God the Father and His Son have been manifested by voice, sight, or otherwise at various times, as at the baptism of Jesus (Matt. 3:16–17), the Transfiguration (Matt. 17:1– 8, to Stephen (Acts 7:55–56), and to the Nephites (3 Ne. 11:7). The Father and the Son personally visited Joseph Smith in the Sacred Grove in the spring of 1820 near Manchester, New York, in the opening of the dispensation of the fulness of times (JS—H 1:11–20). Latter-day revelation confirms the biblical account of God as the literal father of the human family, as a being who is concerned for the welfare of mankind and a Personage who hears and answers prayers. For other references to God, see Heb. 1:1–3; Jacob 4:5; D&C 20:17. KNOW THE FULLNESS OF THE EVERLASTING GOSPEL OF JESUS CHRIST @ www.lds.org |
