For some reason I couldn't post this as a reply so i just made a new thread:
Everybody,
Saying that the Bible isn’t true is like discarding all your history text books from school or saying that the dictionary doesn’t really mean what it says. God doesn’t come from anywhere He just is the O/T name for God Jehovah means He is. He always was and always will be, there is no time for God therefore he just is.
I would like to clarify something for Stephanie. You must realize that Jesus is God then the New Testament can make sense to you. When you realize that God had a plan because of our sin he came in the form of man and lived like a man but was without sin. His purpose was to seek and to save that which was lost. You’re right in saying that God said in the O/T that there was no other gods beside him, He was establishing the truth of the oneness of the Godhead. You’re also right about the graven images that certain denominations have made, At my church we do not have such images and we know that it is wrong and the Lord will be the judge of them who do not listen to His word. Anyway scripture speaks for itself so here goes:
-Deut 6: 4Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God is one LORD:
John 1:1In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2The same was in the beginning with God. 3All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. 4In him was life; and the life was the light of men.
5And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.
-John 1:14And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.
-acts 20: 28Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and to all the flock, over the which the Holy Ghost hath made you overseers, to feed the church of God, which he hath purchased with his own blood.
-Col 2: 9For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily.
I hope I can help you understand this but there is only one that can really reveal it to you and that God himself. If you have any questions I would be glad if you e-mailed me at robstama@hotmail.com and I would answer as much as I can.
Thanks,
Robb
