I might be pre-judging but I expect you won't be interested in what the actual Bible says? Even though it is only a snippet, it is not short and neither will I be involved in cherry picking.
Some of the verses I quoted said directly that Jesus is God If where going to be blunt as you put it, your quote here is not only rubbish, but not true.
Well, well, you are getting very ????? about all this and you were suggesting how I would react about the views you put forward and yet you appear to be far worse in this regard yourself. I might be wrong, it's coming across like your insisting it’s justifiable to read verses this way and how dare you even attempt to challenge that?
No point continuing this slanging match.
Considering the following, after throwing your stone here, no I wouldn't continue either if I were you.
W - I do not expect you to agree on any points either as they may contradict your beliefs.
As I said at the start of this post, I don't expect you to agree. ------------------
Wot - Thanks for you time and effort and you may not like what I say here, but it's really not a matter of what I believe but what the Bible says on the whole, or the use of all the areas that are really needed to understand the likes of the Thomas verses.
So on the surface, your answer sort of has, some yes's and no's.
--------------------------------
W - You just confirmed what I thought your response would be.
You think that there is nothing valid in what I posted. ----------------------------
Wot - Did you not see, I "said" your points had yes's and no's, on the surface of it, so if one only takes the areas you mention, then it's easy to understand how people could see it this way.
But basically and I can only quote the words of the Bible, so there shouldn't be any of this or that stuff or suggesting you knew I wouldn't agree with you, -------------------------------- W - Also to be blunt. That's rubbish wotsup.
It's not only about the verses that wotsup chooses. My post was mainly about the ones I chose from a variety of sources that agreed with each other.
Some of the verses I quoted said directly that Jesus is God - if you don't believe me re-read my post. In others it was my interpretation vs yours based on scripture and not on an interpretation of some supernatural being (you seem to claim that your interpretations are).
Good night. -----------------
After rechecking the 3 areas that were supposed to say directly that Jesus was God, which they still didn't!
Well,,,,, apparently it wasn’t good night, as it “seemed” you were getting frosty and perhaps you realized that your prior verses did NOT directly say Jesus was God, so you sent two more posts to try and back up your claim. The first of these if you had only read 3-4 verses along, you would have seen your own area of reference failed you Big time, not me but you.
However, with your first post of your two, following is your demand;
W - Now please don't bother quoting verses that contradict this (even if you can find them) because I have repeatedly posted that scripture contradicts itself.
Translation – This is what I say, I know best and I don’t care what scripture you post to show I’m wrong, because I just know I’m right.
Despite my efforts to explain to you that my verse quotes don’t necessary contradict the ones you provide but, your interpretation is wrong and therefore, mine are not in contradiction if You could only read yours correctly, hence, scripture interprets scripture.
However, your reply to this attempt was a big = WHAT? Did you mention mocking?
W- Based on what’s has transpired wotsup starts his nex post;
I might be pre-judging but I expect you won't be interested in what the actual Bible says?
Even though it is only a snippet, it is not short and neither will I be involved in cherry picking. --------------------
So I was anticipating that you would throw a wobbly due to my long post, effort etc and due to how you have been running thus far, so my opener out of respect was to give you a heads up as to what was coming and that was, it was going to bound by the Bible and I will not be involved in cherry picking.
So to be honest I'm shocked, dumbfounded and boy did I not expect this, but never mind, tomorrows another day.
