I don't see how you could divide the attributes of character from The Person...

You can't. Not to get side tracked but, that is why God's sovreignty can never violate Himself, i.e., He can never sin. Given the humanity of Jesus that left the whole Godhead vulnerable to failure and that He did not fail only points up the fact that any man who gives himself wholly to God as Jesus did, won't fail either.

Question: What was Jesus given for His success? What will man, in Him, be given for his success?

Once The Truth is established

that is why God's sovreignty can never violate Himself, i.e., He can never sin.

One cannot go backwards in reason to the place you have in this

Given the humanity of Jesus that left the whole Godhead vulnerable to failure

Jesus did not come to prove Himself able in flesh to be God but God in flesh to lead us out of the lie... Love, Steven

"Once The Truth is established"

 

Waht does that mean??? How does it apply???

 

"One cannot go backwards in reason to the place you have in this"

 

Sorry, Does not compute. Where is the relevance?

 

"Jesus did not come to prove Himself able in flesh to be God but God in flesh to lead us out of the lie"

 

But He did come to show us how to be successful in life, didn't He?

 

You are taking away all my suspicions about you objectively advancing this kind of an argument/discussion.  None of it has intergrity of intention. You want to disprove me and by misrepresention is the only way. I have written nothing that needs to be disproved__ for any reason. Perhaps if you tried reading for understanding your replies would read differently.

If the rest are  of a incarnated grace centered doctrine, I am sure I already know what to expect.

 

"And this is life eternal, that they might know thee [not grace]  the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent." John 17:3 (KJV)

Jesus came here to die in our place as the sacrificial lamb so we might know the Father....    Until he paid that sacrifice there was no way for us to know the Father....    that is what grace is.....   to give us eternal life with access to being one with the Father through him.

Do you believe David, a man after God's own heart, knew God? How'bout Abraham, God's friend? Moses?

the Book of John tell us that Jesus was in the form of God before he allowed himself to become flesh.......   Moses, Aaron and 72 other people went up on the Mountain and saw the God of Israel.....   says so in Exodus....   Jesus says that no man has seen the Father.....   If you are to make all scripture hold as truth you must come to the conclusion that the Father was not the God that Moses knew........    it is my personal view that the God that Moses knew was Jesus in the form of God.

 

None of the old testament people knew of the Father, just the personage of our triune God.....   Jesus.

And when the tempter came to him, he said, If thou be the Son of God, command that these stones be made bread. (Mat 4:3)

 

What would have been sinful about Jesus turning stones into bread?  Is there anything inherently wrong with that?   What was Satan’s real motivation?

 

  • The sin would be that Jesus did not believe what his father said about him.

Matthew 17:5

New King James Version (NKJV)

While he was still speaking, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them; and suddenly a voice came out of the cloud, saying, “This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased. Hear Him!”

  • It's inherently wrong to know and disobey the word of God.
  • Satan's motivation for testing Jesus was to find out which man was in control, the inner or outer man. The first test, testing of the flesh.

    • You are coming up higher in this season – above the assignments of character assassination and verbal arrows sent to manage you, contain you, and derail your purpose. Where you have had your dreams and sleep robbed, as well as your peace and clarity robbed – leaving you feeling foggy, confused, and heavy – God is, right now, bringing freedom back -- now you will clearly see the smoke and mirrors that were set to distract you and you will disengage.

      Right now God is declaring a "no access zone" around you, and your enemies will no longer have any entry point into your life. Oil is being poured over you to restore the years that the locust ate and give you back your passion. This is where you will feel a fresh roar begin to erupt from your inner being, and a call to leave the trenches behind and begin your odyssey in your Christ calling moving you to bear fruit that remains as you minister to and disciple others into their Christ identity.

      This is where you leave the trenches and scale the mountain to fight from a different place, from victory, from peace, and from rest. Now watch as God leads you up higher above all the noise, above all the chaos, and shows you where you have been seated all along with Him in heavenly places where you are UNTOUCHABLE. This is where you leave the soul fight, and the mind battle, and learn to fight differently.

      You will know how to live like an eagle and lead others to the same place of safety and protection that God led you to, which broke you out of the silent prison you were in. Put your war boots on and get ready to fight back! Refuse to lay down -- get out of bed and rebuke what is coming at you. Remember where you are seated and live from that place.

      Acts 1:8 - “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses … to the end of the earth.”

    • George Whitten, the visionary behind Worthy Ministries and Worthy News, explores the timing of the Simchat Torah War in Israel. Is this a water-breaking moment? Does the timing of the conflict on October 7 with Hamas signify something more significant on the horizon?

    • Understanding the Enemy!

      I thought I write about the flip side of a topic, and how to recognize the attempts of the enemy to destroy lives and how you can walk in His victory!

      For the Apostle Paul taught us not to be ignorant of enemy's tactics and strategies.

      2 Corinthians 2:112  Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. 

      So often, we can learn lessons by learning and playing "devil's" advocate.  When we read this passage,

      Mar 3:26  And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end. 
      Mar 3:27  No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strongman; and then he will spoil his house. 

      Here we learn a lesson that in order to plunder one's house you must first BIND up the strongman.  While we realize in this particular passage this is referring to God binding up the strongman (Satan) and this is how Satan's house is plundered.  But if you carefully analyze the enemy -- you realize that he uses the same tactics on us!  Your house cannot be plundered -- unless you are first bound.   And then Satan can plunder your house!

    • Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2
      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this series the next obvious sign of the resurrection in the Old Testament is the sign of Isaac and Abraham.

      Gen 22:1  After these things God tested Abraham and said to him, "Abraham!" And he said, "Here I am."
      Gen 22:2  He said, "Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you."

      So God "tests" Abraham and as a perfect picture of the coming sacrifice of God's only begotten Son (Yeshua - Jesus) God instructs Issac to go and sacrifice his son, Issac.  Where does he say to offer him?  On Moriah -- the exact location of the Temple Mount.
