That Spirit is specifically stated to be the Spirit of Christ. So the entire Old testament scriptures were all inspired by Christ Himself
Which fits as Christ is the Word of God.
So when God said Let there be Light, the Word was God and did that.
The Word was always God and God is obedient to His own self, the immutability of His counsel, HE cannot deny Himself

1 Peter 1
10 Of this salvation the prophets have inquired and searched carefully, who prophesied of the grace that would come to you, 11 searching what, or what manner of time, the Spirit of Christ who was in them was indicating when He testified beforehand the sufferings of Christ and the glories that would follow. 12 To them it was revealed that, not to themselves, but to [a]us they were ministering the things which now have been reported to you through those who have preached the gospel to you by the Holy Spirit sent from heaven—things which angels desire to look into.

and let us remember , no angel , no prophet , no apostel , no man ever once declared
To be the I AM , the ALPHA and omega , the first and the last .
ONLY GOD did such a thing . I sure seem to remember JESUS saying this in the book of revelation .

Yes indeed my friend . yes in the deed . There is ONLY ONE SPIRIT and that SPIRIT is GOD , Is CHRIST .
same spirit . Me and My Father shall abode upon that man . HOW SO , BY THE SPIRIT .
The SPIRIT OF GOD AND OF CHRIST is our connection UNTO HIM and does lead us and guide us
and keeps us safe . The FATHER , THE SON WORD , THE SPIRIT , they are ONE
and in THE SPIRIT we are MADE ONE IN HIM .
I do understand that things about this mystery can be hard to be understood , specially at the first .
BUT the KEY IS THIS . Even if one does not understand
NEVER TWIST THE SCRIPS to try and understand , JUST BELEIVE what is written and in time the understanding will come .
BUT many approach the scrips through their own pre learned or pre thought mindsets .
THEY WILL TWIST and omit certain things to try and fit THEIR OWN BELIEF . BIG and DEADLY MISTAKE THAT IS .
rather one should simply LET THE SPIRIT work upon them as they are simply BELIEVING EVERY WORD WRITTEN .
many try and change the truth to fit their own beleifs , THEY DO NOT LET the WORD mold them
THEY TRY AND MOLD THE WORD to fit their own beliefs . THAT IS DEADLY to DO .

Absolutely so.
And they died not in faith, unbelieving of all the testimony in the Word of God who is Christ.

And this is why i beg all to not believe the lie that says muslims and other religoins serve the same GOD we do .
FOR THey too say and make the cliam HEY the muslims HOLD to abraham , to moses , to the scrips
AND YET they WILL NOT COME TO JESUS THE CHRIST that they may have eternal life .
JUST cause a man cliams to FOLLOW MOSES , TORAH and the law
DONT MEAN HE DO or even KNOWS THEM AT ALL .
YOU See had they heard the law , heard moses , beleived moses , beleived abraham and the prophets
THEY HAD BELEIVED JESUS IS THE CHRIST , for it all SPOKE OF HIM . hope that helps my friend . Interfaith is a liar .

The LIGHT OF , GLORY OF GOD is HIS WORD , IS JESUS THE CHRIST .
and i saw no temple therein for the LORD GOD and CHRIST are the TEMPLE .
and there was no need of the light for the GLORY OF GOD DID LIGHTEN IT
and the lamb is THE LIGHT THEREOF . YES SIR scott . IF we read THE INSPIRED WORDS OF GOD
in that bible , it becomes only clearer and clearer to SEE . but if a man omits andtwists such words
that man ends in destruction . better we simply learn and believe them Words . AND I SURE
seen JESUS say I am alpha and omega and i sure know the only ONE WHO EVER DECLARED to be such
WAS GOD .

No one knows THEM, unless Christ reveals themselves Father and Son as God
Otherwise , human reasoning skills are used, and that is earthly, sensual, and of carnal origins, and devilish wisdoms from below.
And we know the whole world is under the sway of the devil,
The wisdom that comes from above is what we need to be hearing and believing.


13 Who is wise and understanding among you? Let him show by good conduct that his works are done in the meekness of wisdom. 14 But if you have bitter envy and [h]self-seeking in your hearts, do not boast and lie against the truth. 15 This wisdom does not descend from above, but is earthly, sensual, demonic. 16 For where envy and self-seeking exist, confusion and every evil thing are there. 17 But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, willing to yield, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality and without hypocrisy. 18 Now the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace by those who make peace.

Luke 10

Jesus Rejoices in the Spirit​

21 In that hour Jesus rejoiced in the Spirit and said, “I thank You, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that You have hidden these things from the wise and prudent and revealed them to babes. Even so, Father, for so it seemed good in Your sight. 22 All[g] things have been delivered to Me by My Father, and no one knows who the Son is except the Father, and who the Father is except the Son, and the one to whom the Son wills to reveal Him.

23 Then He turned to His disciples and said privately, “Blessed are the eyes which see the things you see; 24 for I tell you that many prophets and kings have desired to see what you see, and have not seen it, and to hear what you hear, and have not heard it.

Matthew 11

Jesus Gives True Rest​

25 At that time Jesus answered and said, “I thank You, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that You have hidden these things from the wise and prudent and have revealed them to babes. 26 Even so, Father, for so it seemed good in Your sight. 27 All things have been delivered to Me by My Father, and no one knows the Son except the Father. Nor does anyone know the Father except the Son, and the one to whom the Son wills to reveal Him. 28 Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. 29 Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am [f]gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. 30 For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.”

Hello @JLB

He was claiming to be the voice of God, or the Word of God; which he was. When Jesus said "I am." The Word of God, was manifested in the Flesh. Jesus was the Word of God, made born of spirit and flesh. Jesus was the Word of God incarnate in the flesh.

As a man, Jesus was most certainly a voice of God.


What was He before He became flesh? Please use scripture.

so now the questoin to be asked is , but what if one cometh to a version of JESUS
that testifies a lie unto them . WELL THE LONG ANSWER TO THAT IS , THEY NO CAME TO THE JESUS .
cause JESUS , THE SPIRIT , NEVER TESTIFIES OF A LIE but only TRUTH.
just something to ponder on my friend . If our jesus holds rainbows , overlooks and even accepts sins
and UNBELEIF , THEN IT AINT JESUS , IT AINT GOD , ITS gross darkness masquerading as light .
But if the light that be in one be darkness , THEN GREAT THAT DARKNESS IS .

As i wrote afore to scott , many love a lie . and many will twist and omit TRUTH
in order to justify as they BELIEVE . ever wonder why peter said
Those who are unlearned and UNSTABLE , aka unstable is the double minded man ,
THEN twist this and OTHER scrips unto ..........................THEIR OWN DESTRUCTION . Take note
that didnt say they twist it unto their own good , BUT THEY OWN DESTRUCTION .

That's it right there = and why the jw's doctrine is of satan as well = "the Word was a god"
let us always keep on our minds BY the HOLY GHOST
the motto , LET GOD BE TRUE but every man a liar .
That NO LIE is of the truth .
And that every lovely word of GOD is TRUTH . let no man twist HIS WORDS unto their own destruction
but rather LEARN THEM LOVELY WORDS for themselves .
And if any man be caught twisting , DO ALL to correct such a one
and prayerfully they will repent . For if a man continues in darkness that man HAS NO HOPE .
error will and does and can only beget error . NO TRUTH can come of ERROR
and TRUTH WILL NEVER BEGET ERROR . TRUTH begets truth and no lie is of the truth .
SO allow me some parting words . Men can lie , they can slip , they can fall
they are fallible creatures . BUT GOD IS INFALLIBLE , HIS WORDS cannot fail ,
HIS WORD is infallible and the words CHRIST SPOKE shall ENDURE TO THE END
the heavens will vanish and the old earth dissolved and all evil within
BUT THE WORD OF GOD ENDURES FOREVER .
And , by grace i happen to know a real simple secrete . EVERY WORD OF GOD IS THE TRUTH
and we were warned NOT TO ADD TO or take from lest we BE FOUND a liar
and more so in revelation it states HE who adds to or takes from , WELL LETS JUST SAY IT AINT A GOOD END AT ALL for those
who do such a thing . THE PLAGES written shall fall upon that man , the very lake of fire they tried to omit
THEY WILL SEE IT at their end . BELIEVE AS DO A CHILD EVERY WORD OF THE LORD and let no man
twist a word of it .
