    The Greatest Lie Ever Told: You’re Fine Just as You Are

    At no point in my posts did I write or imply that “you can live in unrepentant habitual sin and still go to heaven.” That is not what I believe, and it's not what I’m teaching. In fact, I said the exact opposite. I made it very clear that those who continue in sin without repentance were never...

    The Greatest Lie Ever Told: You’re Fine Just as You Are

    I am with the truth of the scripture crowd, Sola Scriptura, the true gospel that never teaches that someone can live in willful sin and still be secure. The Bible is crystal clear, those who continue in sin without repentance show they were never truly born again (1 John 3:6-10), therefore, they...

    What would you do if …

    Ha ha, if “same old say so” is all you’ve got, then I guess the truth is still doing its job. You can say goodbye if you want, but that doesn’t change anything I’ve said, or the truth behind it. I’m not intimidated by dismissive comments, and I’m actually glad you’re reading my posts. Keep it...

    Whats so special about saying 'It is Written"

    Jesus said, “It is written…” in response to Satan’s temptations to show us that the written Word of God is our ultimate authority and defense against lies, deception, and spiritual attacks. Though He is fully God, Jesus was also fully man, and in His humanity, He modeled how we are to stand...

    What would you do if …

    Let’s get something straight, I didn’t ask for your opinion, and to be honest, I don’t care for it either. This is a public thread, and I responded to what was posted, plain and simple. If you or someone else chooses to quote from a source and present it without full context, then yes, others...

    Run that by me again, Moses

    Fun, fun, grin. Thanks for the reminder. I am finished with this foolishness, so I put him on ignore.

    Run that by me again, Moses

    That actually proves my point even more. You’re now saying that Dr. Witherington believes the same doctrine I was defending, yet you posted a quote from him that made it sound like he didn’t. That’s exactly why this confusion happened in the first place. You misrepresented what he meant by...

    What would you do if …

    Let’s be clear, it’s not me who owes Dr. Witherington an apology, it’s you. You’re the one who posted the quote, “Jesus wasn’t, and isn’t, Yahweh,” without any explanation or context. That statement, on its own, sounds like a denial of Christ’s divinity. I responded to what you chose to put out...

    What would you do if …

    You’re right that mistakes happen, and I agree that how we respond to them matters. But let’s be honest about where the mistake actually came from. You were the one who posted the quote, “Jesus wasn’t, and isn’t, Yahweh”, without any context or clarification. That’s a serious statement, and...

    Run that by me again, Moses

    The quote you posted, “Jesus wasn’t, and isn’t, Yahweh”, was the only thing I had to go on. You didn’t provide any context or explanation when you shared it. As written, that statement directly contradicts the clear teaching of Scripture concerning the full deity of Jesus Christ (John 1:1, John...

    What would you do if …

    I understand your concern, and I appreciate your acknowledgment of my sincerity. However, I want to be clear that my response was based solely on the quote that you shared: “Jesus wasn’t, and isn’t, Yahweh.” That was the only statement I had to go on, and as it was presented, it directly...

    Run that by me again, Moses

    Just to clarify, the only statement I responded to was the one you posted: “As Dr. Witherington pointed out (see post #24), ‘Jesus wasn’t, and isn’t, Yahweh.’” That was not my quote, nor did I misrepresent it. I responded directly to what was presented. I don’t personally know Dr. Witherington...

    Run that by me again, Moses

    Once again the so-called “Jewish law of agency” is not found in Scripture, nor is it taught as divine revelation. It is a man-made interpretive framework developed through rabbinic tradition to explain how a representative can act on behalf of another. While it may serve as a cultural or legal...

    Run that by me again, Moses

    John 17:22 must be understood in the context of the entire Gospel of John, which consistently reveals the divine nature of Jesus Christ. Throughout this chapter, Jesus is praying to the Father, but that does not deny His divinity. Instead, it reflects the relationship between the Father and the...

    Run that by me again, Moses

    The truth doesn’t come from man-made traditions or legal interpretations like the so-called "Jewish law of agency"—it comes from Scripture alone. God's Word is the final authority, and we are commanded not to add to it or take away from it (Deuteronomy 4:2, Proverbs 30:6). While the concept of...

    Run that by me again, Moses

    Readers of the true Word of God are not missing anything by rejecting the false idea that Moses is, in any sense, Yahweh. In fact, holding to what Scripture actually says protects against deception. Moses is consistently presented in the Bible as a servant, prophet, and mediator between God and...

    Run that by me again, Moses

    In Deuteronomy 29:6, when Moses says, “in order that you might know that I am Yahweh your God,” he is not claiming to be Yahweh Himself. This is a misunderstanding of the speaker’s role. Moses is acting as God's mouthpiece, delivering God's words directly to the people. This is a common pattern...

    Don't fall into the trap, of thinking your faith is solely your doing - it is your doing in part, but praise God daily

    God is all-knowing (Isaiah 46:9–10), declaring the end from the beginning, and nothing catches Him off guard. He is not like man, subject to new information or unexpected outcomes. As for the comment that God “enjoys” surprise, Scripture never describes God experiencing surprise or being caught...

    No Exceptions: Jesus Was Talking to You

    The Bible clearly teaches that Jesus is fully God and fully man, not merely a prophet or created being. John 1:1 says, “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.” Verse 14 makes it clear that the Word became flesh, Jesus. Thomas called Him, “My Lord and my...
