Quote me specifically, I posted only verses, so which verse are you accusing of this that I posted?


In post #28 you said "the scripture tells us the day the Son was begotten"

John 1:1 says Jesus was from the beginning so whatever day you are speaking of is not when Jesus came in to existence.

I said,

The scripture tells us the day the Son was begotten

Mentioned in Psalm 2:7 (Jesus speaking)

Psalm 2:7 I will declare the decree: the LORD hath said unto ME, Thou art my Son;
THIS DAY have I BEGOTTEN thee.

Mentioned also in Acts 13:33 as something that needed to be fulfilled (which God hath fulfilled)

Acts 13:33 God hath fulfilled the same unto us their children, in that he hath raised up Jesus again; as it is also written in the second psalm, Thou art my Son, THIS DAY have I BEGOTTEN thee.

Which is also the same day Christ was made an high priest

Heb 5:5 So also Christ glorified not himself to be made an high priest; but he that said unto him,
Thou art my Son, TO DAY have I BEGOTTEN thee.

You reject these references?

The difference @David in NJ between you and me isn't much, but my belief cannot harmonious with the traditional Trinitarian concept as you believe it to be. And that difference is in the begotten nature of the Son. The Trinity as in the latter creeds which are accepted almost universally, defines the Son as being eternally begotten from all eternity, whereas i believe the Son was begotten at a certain point in eternity. Which means the Father/ Son paradigm for me is more closely related to how humans would normally believe a generational begetting would look like. God sent a Son. A real Son. Not a co equal eternal member who took on the role of son in order to demonstrate something we couldn't presumably understand otherwise.

Your statement places you on the doorsteps of watchtower/jw.

Return to the WORD that was God in the Beginning

To Him who loved us and washed us from our sins in His own blood, and has made us kings and priests to His God and Father, to Him be glory and dominion forever and ever. Amen.

Behold, He is coming with clouds, and every eye will see Him, even they who pierced Him.
And all the tribes of the earth will mourn because of Him. Even so, Amen.

“I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End,” says the Lord, “who is and who was and who is to come, the Almighty.”


ALPHA = Genesis declares a Co-Equality between the FATHER the WORD and the HOLY SPIRIT

This Co-Equality is further emphasized to us in the Gospel and the Apostles writings.

OMEGA = Finally this Co-Equality is irrevocably VALIDATED in Revelation

You reject these references?

Will you reject John 1:1 that tells us Jesus is God's Word Who has existed since the beginning which proves He was NOT actually begotten on any particular day?

Your references do not prove Jesus has not existed from the beginning and has been with God and has been God... all along.

Your references are speaking of something other than Jesus being begotten on a particular day... AND your references do not prove Jesus is a created being either. disagree.gif





These are not speaking of his existance, its speaking of the day he was begotten

Hang in there bud... you'll get it one of these days!... Maybe clueless.gif

The begotten you are speaking of is referring to someone being born like a child coming in to the world, so it's referring to Jesus coming back from the dead.

He was separated from God on the Cross for our sins and God brought in back to where He was not longer separated from God... that's what is happening here

Jesus is not a created being and was never begotten in the sense that He was created at a particular point in time where prior to that He did not exist...

He's always existed and was never created by God.


Begotten from Psalm 2:7

yalad -- pronounced: yaw-lad'

a primitive root; to bear young; causatively, to beget; medically, to act as midwife; specifically, to show lineage: KJV -- bear, beget, birth((-day)), born, (make to) bring forth (children, young), bring up, calve, child, come, be delivered (of a child), time of delivery, gender, hatch, labour, (do the office of a) midwife, declare pedigrees, be the son of, (woman in, woman that) travail(-eth, -ing woman).


Begotten from Acts 13:33, and Heb 5:5

gennao -- pronounced: ghen-nah'-o

from a variation of 1085; to procreate (properly, of the father, but by extension of the mother); figuratively, to regenerate: KJV -- bear, beget, be born, bring forth, conceive, be delivered of, gender, make, spring.

You had a problem with my post, point my errors out one by one big man
Your references do not prove Jesus has not existed from the beginning and has been with God and has been God... all along.

My references are for the the day he was begotten are you not paying attention?


Your references are speaking of something other than Jesus being begotten on a particular day... AND your references do not prove Jesus is a created being either. View attachment 56841

I don't allow false doctrine in to my thinking...but you can all you want... feel free! View attachment 56848
Which verses are false doctrine?

Stop being the false accuser and self impressed court jester that you are and man up. Point out which of the verses are incorrect concerning when Jesus Christ was begotten.

This should be easy for you, I only posted a handful and made the letters really big and bolded them for you.
