So you believe it was just a flesh and bone body which was offered?101G said:I did answer, see my P.S. NO, he papered a body, for himself, to offered himself?.
Waiting for you to answer :)Purity said:What was in the mind of the Psalmist when he wrote Psalm 40?
Clearly the writer to the Hebrews quotes Psalm 40:6-8 as you have correctly stated. But this Psalm reads differently in the Old Testament than in the New: "Mine ears hast thou opened"
Its one thing to quote a passage its another to understand it!
We shall see.
Purity
No, you said the "body" was sacrificed! Your words not mine. The Life you said was the Holy Spirit.So you believe it was just a flesh and bone body which was offered?,
NO, the body was the sacrifice, a LIFE was OFFERED, now purity who life was offered?, I'll be waiting for your answer.
What was in the mind of the Psalmist when he wrote Psalm 40?

So now you infer the body being just flesh and bone is the very Son of God? And why do you not use the title God the Son?NO, lets get it right. the body, the Son of God was in the tomb,
Then you proceed to use the title Spirit with the Son of Man which is his title of coming judgement upon all flesh including his own.and the Spirit, the Son of man was always existing.
Then you would teach Christ your eternal Spirit, Holy and Pure went into everlasting fire to be tormented by evil spirits all the while preaching to the dead, but living tormented souls?and went into hell and preached to the spirit in prison.
If you don't know - say so.What was in the mind of the Psalmist when he wrote Psalm 40?

Why didn't Jesus call himself man the son?Purity said:And why do you not use the title God the Son?
For the same reason he did not call himself God the Son.Why didn't Jesus call himself man the son?

It was Large Caps now condescension - what's next?Purity, Purity,
Interesting - you could be right.is not the "Son", a TITLE of GOD?. not "ANOTHER PERSON". this is what I been say all along. JESUS, GOD in flesh is the "SON".
Son of Man - Hmmmis not the "Son of man the "Diversity" of the Spirit?. and Yes its the son of Man who is coming back, in GLORIFIED FLESH. not the son of God.
Yes but we established you believe the Life is in the Spirit and that the body was just a house having no relationship to the one occupying it.So lets get this straight.
The Life is in the BLOOD. Leviticus 17:11 "For the life of the flesh is in the blood: and I have given it to you upon the altar to make an atonement for your souls: for it is the blood that maketh an atonement for the soul". THIS IS THE LIFE GOD KNEW IN THE FLESH, and he, GOD, gave that life, BLOOD.
You like to put up quotes although struggle to use them wisely, in context.2. in support of this you believe the corpse was in the grave while Jesus was in Hell preaching to the damned or something like this.
a body without the spirit is DEAD. James 2:26 "For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also".
The Holy Spirit caused conception in Mary, anything more than this is serious conjecture on your part. Even you would agree you are reading a "lot" into Luke 1:35.3. You believe the Spirit has no relationship to the body prepared at all
wrong, it was the Spirit who prepared the body. listen, Luke 1:35 "And the angel answered and said unto her, The Holy Ghost
shall come upon thee, and the power of the Highest shall overshadow thee: therefore also that holy thing which shall be born of thee shall be called the Son of God".
purity what was born?, that's right flesh, bone, and blood, and that flesh, bone, and blood is called the son of God. see the son of God came out of Mary. the Son of man it the spirit of God in that flesh, bone, and blood. let me break it down to you. the son of God is the Lamb "of" God. and the Lamb is GOD. see Son "OF" is the outer man. the Son is the inner man, spirit.
You did not address the point!Heb 10:3-12 is all about a sacrifice which is greater than that of bulls and goats but clearly you hold the offering of a flesh and blood body, an empty vessel, a house for the Holy Spirit as you teach was enough to atone for your sins.
a. wrong, that body was offered once, and that which was birthed is not the body that rose. supportive scripture, 1 Corinthians 15:35 "But some man will say, How are the dead raised up? and with what body do they come? 36 Thou fool, that which thou sowest is not quickened, except it die: 37 And that which thou sowest, thou sowest not that body that shall be, but bare grain
, it may chance of wheat, or of some other grain: 38 But God giveth it a body as it hath pleased him, and to every seed his own body". He have no blood now. so how do he live?. the Spirit. hence the Spirit of Christ.
Who came?b. an empty vessel, a house for the Holy Spirit as you teach was enough to atone for your sins.
the vessel was not empty, it had blood, the life of the FLESH. did not God come and save us from our sins?. Isaiah 35:4 "Say to them that are of a fearful heart, Be strong, fear not: behold, your God will come with vengeance, even God with a recompence; he will come and save you". so who came?,
So you believe Jesus Christ in like manner is a created being born of a woman and being the first fruits of them which sleep, is but a god? Is he not the captain of our salvation? Is your death and resurrection likened to not to his? I agree there is only one spirit, but there are many children. Jesus Christ is but one of those children - a Son...not a God.2 Purity
NO, it make us diversities, Sons, but not God. there is only ONE SPIRIT and we from him. so get your head out of the clouds. (smile, but a good thought). yes the scriptures say Psalms 82:6 "I have said, Ye are gods; and all of you are children of the most High". but you missed the very next verse. 7 But ye shall die like men, and fall like one of the princes".
Neither the Son of Man!#2. Son of Man - Hmmm
First time it is used. God is not a man, that he should lie; neither the son of man, that he should repent: hath he said, and shall he not do it? or hath he spoken, and shall he not make it good? (Num 23:19KJV).
Not a man "TO LIE". that's all. now,
Gal 4:4 simple unlike his Father who is not a man.who do you think the image is in?. 1 Corinthians 15:47 "The first man is of the earth, earthy: the second man is the Lord from heaven". now Purity, why is the Lord FROM heave is called a MAN?,![]()
The Spiritual life ended also!#3. Yes but we established you believe the Life is in the Spirit and that the body was just a house having no relationship to the one occupying it.
You said "NO, lets get it right. the body, the Son of God was in the tomb, and the Spirit, the Son of man was always existing. and went into hell and preached to the spirit in prison." So you believe the life was in the Spirit and not the blood. Right?
Purity, How hard is it to understand?. did he not give the blood on the cross. John 19:34 "But one of the soldiers with a spear pierced his side, and forthwith came there out blood and water". he have no more blood. with that blood loss, that ended the NATURAL LIFE.
You mean living creature right? like an animal correct? does my dog have an immortal soul? do we not share the same breath? Eccl 3:19KJV#4. “Spirit” is pneumatos from a root signifying to breathe. The translation is better rendered "the body without breath is dead and with this the margin of the AV agrees.
Genesis 2:7 "And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul". is the SOUL the BODY?. you need to read your bible "WITH UNDERSTANDING".
and the rest of your question was answered.
You should clarify your statement by saying that MODERN Christianity is the religion of a trinity. The religion that Christ taught and that the apostles continued did not have any such concept. This is why you don't even see the word trinity in the Bible. What you do see is the Godhead. What Christ clearly taught is that He came to do the will of some other being, which He calls His Father. This is the being that is God. Christ then receives all the glory and power that His Father has, making Him another God. Two beings who have the same power because the first gave to the other based on obedience to the laws of this power. Power was also given to the Holy Spirit to be with them in this formation called the Godhead. These 3 beings, as separate as you, your mother, and your father are, are the governing beings of our universe, all under the direction of the Father. They work as one with the common attributes and goals that they have. The concept is very similar to the idea that a husband and wife are to be one. 2 distinct individuals that work together, having the same goals. They are to be one.aspen2 said:trinitarians? Christianity is the religion of God as a Trinity. This message board holds to this most foundational belief. What you are challenging is the most fundamental doctrine. Rejection of this doctrine places you outside orthodoxy.
Christianity is not polytheistic. Doctrine developed over time. Believing that Christ was born as a human being without divinity is a heresy. Christ never claimed that He was human and then turned into a god - He claimed that He was with God in the beginning and that He was there when Lucifer fell from Heaven like lightening.Robertson said:You should clarify your statement by saying that MODERN Christianity is the religion of a trinity.

The trinity concept comes around after the apostles are gone and error creeps into the church over the next 200 years. By the time of the formation of the Catholic church, the foundation had been mixed with Hellenistic and Pagan doctrines and unfortunately, people today follow those doctrines instead of the Biblical doctrines. They tried to change the polytheistic religion to a monotheistic one and by so doing came up with an incomprehensible doctrine of the 3 spiritual mixtures in 1.
I know lots of Christians think the doctrine of the trinity is Biblical, but please look again. Show us where even the word trinity appears? I am a Christian and I have looked many times. I live by every word in the Bible, of which, trinity is not one of them. This 1o1g guy is not attacking the true Christianity of the Bible, he is trying to dispel the traditions of a long distorted doctrine. Thank you for your words 1o1g
