Instead it is knowing the Creator and having a relationship through It. Quoting: danielbarzohar It is not belief that saves you for the devils believe and tremble. It is walking as one with the Creator. Jesus said in John 17:11 I am no longer going to be in the world; and yet they themselves are in the world, and I am coming to You. Holy Father, keep them in Your name, the name which You have given Me, so that they may be one just as We are. It seems Jesus walked with the Creator and was one with It and desires others to do the same and have a oneness relationship with the Creator. I don't know why you insist on calling the Creator 'it'.

Nothing like taking things out of context. Quoting: Servant-of-the-LORD God help you when judgement comes. Okay, here it is in context: 1 Corinthians 13:9-13 9 For we know in part and prophesy in part; 10 but when the perfect comes, the partial will be done away with. 11 When I was a child, I used to speak like a child, think like a child, reason like a child; when I became a man, I did away with childish things. 12 For now we see in a mirror dimly, but then face to face; now I know in part, but then I will know fully, just as I also have been fully known. 13 But now faith, hope, and love remain, these three; but the greatest of these is love. Please share your Opinion of what it means? As humans we see only part of the picture. We won't fully know or understand until 'the perfect comes' - that's Jesus at the End Times. The Gospel gives us Salvation - the 'hope'. The love of God and His Christ is the 'keystone'. Jesus said the most inportant Commandment was to 'Love God'. The term "Perfect" could be referring to the Kingdom of Heaven. Jesus repeatedly preached about the coming Kingdom of Heaven so that is likely what the verse is referring to. You are assuming the coming of the "Perfect" is Jesus. That is just your interpretation. In context, the Kingdom of Heaven fits because the verses declare a transition from childhood to full knowledge and the partial being done away with. The partial is the current world and the Perfect is the Kingdom of Heaven. Last Edited by danielbarzohar on 10/01/2022 11:52 AM "Do only that, which would be acceptable to all mankind." |

The Creator does not care how in error some of our beliefs may be. The devils believe and tremble. Satan (The Accuser) creates a giant distraction by having religious people arguing and accusing each other over beliefs and doctrine to the point that everyone misses the Creator's message. The accuser accomplishes this through using our own egos. We are so convinced we are correct that we join in the chaos to prove that we are right. Christians that fight and bicker over what things mean are servants of Satan. Instead we should follow Paul's advice and not criticize those that are babies (immature) in the faith because of their lack of knowledge. We should implement love and forgiveness and be vessels of light to those around us. We should treat others as we would want to be treated. No one has all the truth for we see into a mirror darkly. We only see a small fraction of any truth that we discover. The Creator desires us to have a day to day intimate relationship with it as we follow our path and grow in spiritual maturity and knowledge. To do that we need to take our ego's off the throne of our hearts and let the Creator take It's proper place to lead us. Those that follow their ego will not be able to walk with the Creator as the voice of ego over-rides the whisper of the small, still voice of the Creator from within. The bottom line is that you can believe what the truth is but still not have a relationship with the Creator. Unless you walk with the Creator's spirit you do not know the One that Created all.

So the question arises as to What are the Scriptures? The scriptures are referenced throughout the Christian New Testament and Christians are encouraged to study the scriptures and test things according to the scriptures. What scriptures were the writers of the New Testament referring to? It could not have been their own letters and writings as they had not yet been compiled and canonized to be added to the Hebrews Bible to form what we have today as the Christian Bible. The letters of the apostles were circulated among the Christian churches to provide guidance on doctrine and principles of faith. If you carefully read the writings of the New Testament, it is clear that the scriptures being referred to were the Hebrews Tanach. The New Testament writers also quoted or alluded to other books that they may have considered as scripture. According to Wikipedia, these other books quoted or alluded to include the following: 1. Book of Enoch (Jude 4,6,13,14-15, 2 Peter 2:4;3:13) 2. Life of Adam and Eve (2 Corinthians 11:14 "Satan as an angel of light", 12:2 "Third Heaven") 3. Assumption of Moses (Jude 9 "Michael… body of Moses") 4. Martyrdom of Isaiah (Hebrews 11:37 "they were sawn in two") Of these 4 books referenced, the Book of Enoch was the one most likely considered scripture by the early church as it has been found among the Dead Sea Scrolls and was quoted multiple times in both Jude and 2 Peter. It wasn’t canonized by the church and may or may not be scripture. However, the Book of Enoch has a lot of writing related to the messiah as well as information on the angelic realm and is well worth reading for those that have never read it.

What do you think the story is about in the Bible then when a rib was removed from Adam to create the woman? Obviously the woman already existed within adam! However another way to look at all of it is that each one of us has feminine and masculine energies. The problem over the thousands of years is that the feminine energy has been squelched into nearly non-existence. The masculine energy has been distorted and now is no longer what it truly was meant to be. It has become narcissistic, manipulative and controlling. A well-balanced harmonious individual will have learned to work with both feminine and masculine energies within themselves. |

Quoting: Servant-of-the-LORD Yet Jesus said He would disavow certain folks who 'cast out demons' - saying 'I never knew you'. Where did they fail? We don't know. Most Christians scream their doctrines and the verses that have been taught to them by pastors & theologians. People rail against my topics because they refuse to look at the scriptural - and in some cases - the historical evidence. It's all I can do is to present what evidence I see - what I am being shown. Most folks version of Bible Study is reading the verses - and the explanations - that the church / pastor gives them. I don't think that is what Paul meant. 2 Timothy 2:15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. 2 Timothy 3:16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: Deuteronomy 4:2 Ye shall not add unto the word which I command you, neither shall ye diminish ought from it, that ye may keep the commandments of the LORD your God which I command you. So the question arises as to What are the Scriptures? The scriptures are referenced throughout the Christian New Testament and Christians are encouraged to study the scriptures and test things according to the scriptures. What scriptures were the writers of the New Testament referring to? It could not have been their own letters and writings as they had not yet been compiled and canonized to be added to the Hebrews Bible to form what we have today as the Christian Bible. The letters of the apostles were circulated among the Christian churches to provide guidance on doctrine and principles of faith. If you carefully read the writings of the New Testament, it is clear that the scriptures being referred to were the Hebrews Tanach. The New Testament writers also quoted or alluded to other books that they may have considered as scripture. According to Wikipedia, these other books quoted or alluded to include the following: 1. Book of Enoch (Jude 4,6,13,14-15, 2 Peter 2:4;3:13) 2. Life of Adam and Eve (2 Corinthians 11:14 "Satan as an angel of light", 12:2 "Third Heaven") 3. Assumption of Moses (Jude 9 "Michael… body of Moses") 4. Martyrdom of Isaiah (Hebrews 11:37 "they were sawn in two") Of these 4 books referenced, the Book of Enoch was the one most likely considered scripture by the early church as it has been found among the Dead Sea Scrolls and was quoted multiple times in both Jude and 2 Peter. It wasn’t canonized by the church and may or may not be scripture. However, the Book of Enoch has a lot of writing related to the messiah as well as information on the angelic realm and is well worth reading for those that have never read it. I have NO problem with Apocrypha from either the Catholic nor the KJV. Modern theologians rail against those books because they distract people from the doctrines they teach. Last but not least, it's now common knowledge that church writers hated Messianic believers - pushing Pauline dispensationalism instead. I am a humble Servant of the one True Living God. |

User ID: 84303319 United States 10/02/2022 10:28 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | OP is correct. What do you think the story is about in the Bible then when a rib was removed from Adam to create the woman? Obviously the woman already existed within adam! However another way to look at all of it is that each one of us has feminine and masculine energies. The problem over the thousands of years is that the feminine energy has been squelched into nearly non-existence. The masculine energy has been distorted and now is no longer what it truly was meant to be. It has become narcissistic, manipulative and controlling. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 80471818 A well-balanced harmonious individual will have learned to work with both feminine and masculine energies within themselves. Hogwash. God used a 'rib' from Adam because it was far easier to use Adam's DNA as a 'basis' for Eve - instead of creatinr her from the dust all over again. And no other creature on the planet had DNA even close to Adam's. God and Adam having both 'male and female' aspects is the true beginning of the 'Femin-nazi' movement. There's NO Biblical support for it. I am a humble Servant of the one True Living God. |

Yeashua actually came in the feminine energy, representative of the mother's energy... nurturing, compassion, teacher. The father is the seed planter... mother energy nurtures the seed. Both are necessary |

The statements / declarations / teachings that you folks push have NO root in scripture - not even Apocrypha. It's all based on pagan-written false documents by people who HATED the Hebrews and their God.

Quoting: Servant-of-the-LORD We won't fully know or understand until 'the perfect comes' - that's Jesus at the End Times. The Gospel gives us Salvation - the 'hope'. The love of God and His Christ is the 'keystone'. Jesus said the most inportant Commandment was to 'Love God'. ..... Paul is NOT refering to the Kingdom. 'My interpretation'? The New Heaven and New Earth don't happen until AFTER the Millenial Reign of Jesus - on Earth. He is 'without spot or blemish'. Jesus is the perfect SON of the Living God. You're just flat out WRONG on this. Either one of us could be wrong as it is interpretation of the word Perfect. Only Paul and the Creator knows for sure what the word Perfect is referring to. The New Heaven and New earth views depend on which doctrines you subscribe to. It's not the 'word' perfect'. It's the phrase 1 Cor 13:10 but when the perfect comes, the partial will be done away with. There is absolutely NO scripture that connects 'the perfect' with 'the kingdom'. AND there is plenty of scripture that refers to Christ's retrun'. Jesus is the perfect Son of the Living God. ... New Heaven and New Earth will be exactly as stated. Any other interpretation is just by those unwilling to accept what God has declared that He will do. Is not the Kingdom of Heaven "Perfect"? Where is another verse or statement from Jesus where he is identified with the exact term "Perfect". Jesus was called the Son of Man and the Son of God. You perfectly illustrate the point that there is the scripture and then man's multiple interpretations of what the words mean. In the Hebrews religion, most rabbis are not so arrogant to believe that they are the only one right so they publish all rabbinical opinions. They acknowledge that only the Creator knows for sure who is correct. Your view is your perspective that the term "Perfect" refers to Jesus. My view is that it refers to the Kingdom of Heaven. Why did Paul not just say when Jesus comes? He obviously knew of Jesus. Instead he used the term "Perfect". It could be referring to both Jesus and the Kingdom since they are interconnected.
