Discuss John 1 Page 94

There is no other way to know God but through obedience, faith and love. Remember that no matter what temptation or trial you are going through, thats exactly what God expects you to overcome so keep fighting and dont give up because others have overcome bigger temptation than what you are facing

how can you say that, because he dose not believed in himself so as he dose believed in others too. you know we have some people, they see and believe. and this is what happen here in the bible too. we have people like that who are doubtful about any you say

Father i know you created us through your son jesus christ JUST BY YOUR WORD WHICH IS YOU AND YOU DEAR SON INDEED NOTHING WAS WITHOUT YOUR WORD MAY TO THROIUGH YOU WRITE MY NAME IN YOUR BOOK OF LIFE AMENI

In the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. How could we know God? We can know Him through His Words, because He is the Word...that gives eternal life. We need to pray to him to ask Him to give us the wisdom to know His Words, so that we may live the same way as He lived. He wants us to be perfect like him. Following His path is not easy, but through our Faith, Obedience and Love for Him, we can be called as the "Chosen few". Make Him our Model on how to live in this earth. Make His works as our guide on how to have eternal life. All these are my testimonies of my faith in Him. Amen

honestly (Jesus said) from this moment on ward YOU will see Heaven open which means you will more revelational glory, and You will see angel comin and going up in other words the works of the spirit be made a great witness even by You

We are not saying women are not doing a good job or not gifted but there is the commandment of God to be followed. Paul clearly says in 1Corinthians 14:37 if any man thinks himself to be a prophet, or spiritual, let him acknowledge that the things I write unto you are the commandments of the Lord. Now he was speaking the word to people with various gifts of the Holy spirit. Jesus says in Mathew 7:21-22: not everyone that says unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter the kingdom of heaven: but he that doeth the will of my Father in heaven. Many will say unto me in that day, Lord, Lord have we not prophesied in thy name? And in thy name cast out devils? And in thy name many wonderful works? And I will profess unto them, I never knew you depart from, ye that work iniquity. Yes they can do mighty works in His name but if is not at his command it is all in vain. His will is His command. In 2John 1:9 it says: Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ, hath no God. He that abideth in the doctrine of Christ, he hath both the father and the son. The doctrine of Christ did not place women preachers in the church. Where did these women preachers originate from? In Mathew 16:6b- take heed and beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees. In Mathew 16:12 the disciples understood he was not speaking of leaven of bread but leaven of doctrine of Pharisees? What was wrong with the doctrine of Pharisees? Here it is: Mathew 15:9 - But in vain do they worship me teaching for doctrine the commandments of men. In Mathew 15:3 they transgressed the commandment of God by their traditions, of their elders. The Apostles doctrine ( Acts 2:42) was the doctrine of Christ. Jesus says in John 17:16-17 - my doctrine is not mine but his that sent me. If any man do his will, he shall know of the doctrine, whether it be of God or whether I speak of myself. The doctrine of Christ did not place women preachers, but doctrines of pharisees and saducees. In Mathew 23:29- 37 He called them serpents, brood of vipers. Adressing the serpents Jesus said you killed the righteous, shed their blood, from the blood of righteous able. These scripture clearly say Cain was a serpent. The original serpent gave Eve leaven of false doctrine and slew her by it, she became a transgressor. John the Baptist calls these serpents brood of vipers. In Mathew 23:15 they are called children of hell. The serpent convinced Eve to transgress the clear cut command of God by giving it a false interpretation. He deceives the fallen church the same way today. We are here looking at the scripture comparing spiritual things with spiritual, scripture with scripture and by the Holy Ghost, for scripture interprets scripture and was given by the inspiration of the Holy Ghost for correction and reproof. Jesus warns us in Mathew 7:13- enter ye in the straight gate: for wide is the gate and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life. The doctrine of the Apostolic Fathers that begat us by the gospel is of the Holy Ghost and cannot be added to or subtracted from. In I Corinthianthians 4:15 Paul says, though ye have ten thound instructors in Christ, ye have not many fathers: for in Christ I have begotten you throught the gospel. In 1timothy 2, it speaks of women to adorn themselves in modest apparel. It is unbecoming for Christian women to dress like the world, to walk naked and to put garments that pertain to men. Deutronomy 22:5 says the woman shall not wear that which pertaineth unto a man, neither shall a man put on a womans garment: for ALL THAT DO SO ARE AN ABOMINATION UNTO THE LORD THY GOD. That settles it.

HE CAME TO HIS OWN AND HIS OWN RECIEVED HIM NOT. THEY WERE MORE CURIOUS ABOUT JOHN BECAUSE HE HAD A LOUD VOICE AND HE CREATED A SCENE BY HAVING BAPTISMS. JESUS CAME HUMBLY AS THE LAMB OF GOD FULL OF POWER AND GLORY.

john witness the coming of our lord jesus christ,that jesus is the way.the truth,the light of the word the son of GOD,telling us to belive in him,trust in him.as john the witness of christ so we the belivers are witness of unbeliver to aspect jesus christ as their lord and saviour Amen

1 Timothy 3:16 Without controversy great is the mystery of godliness:God was manifest in the flesh,justified in the Spirit,seen of angels,preach unto the Gentiles,believed on in the world,recieved up into glory.
StJohn 1:1&2 In the beginning was the Word,and the Word was with GOD,and the Word was GOD.The same was in the beginning with GOD."The scriptures are talking about JESUS comes from GOD!"

That's right Jeff! Revelation 1:8 says - I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the *Almighty*. Jesus spake this.

John 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. -v,14- And *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.

Whoever you are ~ 123 ~ let me give you some knowledge. John 3:16 says For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him *SHOULD* not perish, but have everlasting life.

It does NOT say that you SHALL be saved! I bought an ozarka water the other day and it said on the back of it, " this item SHOULD not be sold individually." well i bought it by its self. So, maybe it wasn't meant to be sold individually but it was. Same goes with the scripture. Yeah if you believe that Jesus is god and you believe this,

Ephesians 4:5 One Lord, one faith, one baptism, -6- One God and Father of all,

Acts 2:38 Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.

Acts 4:12 Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other NAME under heaven given among men, whereby we MUST be saved.

If you think there is three gods you are sorely mistaken. There's not two nor five. Only ONE !

Isaiah 44:6 Thus saith the LORD the King of Israel, and his redeemer the LORD of hosts; I am the first, and I am the last; and beside me there is no God.
Isaiah 44:8 Fear ye not, neither be afraid: have not I told thee from that time, and have declared it? ye are even my witnesses. Is there a God beside me? yea, there is no God; I know not any.
1 Timothy 3:16 And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory.

In the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. God gave Adam and Eve the Word of God when He told them not to eat of the tree. God gave Noah the Word of God when He told him to build an Ark. God gave Moses the Word of God when He gave him the Commandments to give to the Children of Israel. Jesus gave us the Word of God when he preached the kingdom of God with the Spirit that descended from heaven and took His abode upon him. The Word of God has been from the beginning of time and before. God is a Spirit, not a man. We must worship God in Spirit and in truth. For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus.

We see Elohim is present. In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was God. Jesus is the Word, the same in Genesis 1:1 at the creation of the world. God in three person the God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. Just as water has three forms: Ice, Vapor, and Liquid still water. The just shall live by faith, and we cannot comprehend the trinity in our finite minds, but faith comes by hearing the Word of God. One day our faith will be turned into sight when we see Jesus. Thank God he is the way, the truth, and the life, no man comes unto the Father except by him. Therefore receive the Son, for God has said my Spirit will not always strive with man. Now is the day of salvation receive him today, and you will live forever with him through out eternity.

In Mathew 1:1 Jesus Christ is son of David, son of Abraham. He was made seed of David according to the flesh ( Romans 1:4). He, as seed of Abraham was promised to possess the gates of his enemies. In Abraham's seed all the nations of the earth be blessed ( Genesis 22:17-18). In Mathew 1:18) He is Child of the Holy Ghost. He came down from heaven ( John 3: 13). This Child of the Holy Ghost was the word made flesh, the only begotten of the Father ( John 1:14). The Holy Ghost is the Father. The Holy Ghost and the Father are the self same person. God is a Spirit ( John 4:24) and you must be born of water the Spirit to see the kingdom of God ( John 3:5). God is the Father and He is the Holy Ghost. God was manifest in the flesh ( 1Timothy 3:16) For verily he took not on him the nature of angels; but he took on him the seed of Abraham ( Hebrews 1:16). God was manifested in the flesh make atonement for sin and to purchase His church by His own blood ( Acts 20: 28). The Shekinah glory that was in that once filled the temple in Jerusalem took a body of flesh. He became God's Choosen Place of Worship, God's Temple that He choose to put His name, the perfect realisation ofthe old testament temple (Deutromy12:5-11). Jesus was God's temple and the Church is the temple of his body ( John 2:19; Ephesians 5:30; 2:21- 22). The church of Christ, the bride is the mouthpiece of the Holy Ghost for the commission was its not ye that speak but the Holy Ghost ( Mark 13:11) and again what Holy Ghost speaks the true church speaks the same ( Revelation 22:17), for He that is Joined unto the Lord is one Spirit ( 1Corinthians 6:16). Now the Spirit of the Lord that was on Jesus is in His church even as He promised: as for me, this is my covenant with them, saith the LORD, My spirit that is upon thee and my words which I have put in thy mouth, shall not depart out of thy mouth, nor out of the mouth of thy seed, nor out the mouth of thy Seed's seed, from henceforth and forever( Isaiah 59:21). The witness of the Apostles and prophets in the Bible is the witness of the Holy Ghost, for they were sent by the Holy Ghost ( Acts 13:4) and they preached by the Holy Ghost ( Galatians 1 :11-12). For the church to receive the blessing of Abraham the must stay exacty with the original gospel as Spoken by the Holy Ghost through His apotles

Jacques, It was correct to quote John 1:1. But I noticed you left out verse 18 in that same chapter. Thousands of people SAW Jesus. But my bible says no man has seen God at ANY time. So how can he be God? Also, at Mark 13:32 Jesus by his own addmission says he doen't know everything. How can he be God? Your God's knowedge is limited. My God knows everything.

I believe all creation was made by Him,and without him was not any thing made that was made.
John 1:3.

And the Word was with God. With God, means in God, for truth is in good, and good is in truth.God's Divine essence is good and truth. The Divine Truth is the Word, the Lord is the Word

What really upsets me is what some "sects" alleging to be "Christian" have done to John 1:1, such as the Watchtower Society which changed John 1:1 in 1960 to "and the Word was a god" from "and the Word was God", even though the official bible of the Jehovah's Witnesses from when they were founded in the late 1870's until their release of their version of the bible called "The New World Translation" in 1960 ! So for their first 80 years they acknowledged the diety of Christ, but then they demoted Him to "a god"! Therefore Jehovah's Witnesses are not really "Christians" as they claim to be because they do not believe in the diety of Christ.

one John,he had the sprit of ELIYAH
THE voice of him that could in the wilderness, prepore ye the way of the lord, These verses apply to Jhon the Baptist, He was tarking about Christ, first Coming this is for the end times work. He says- prepare ye the way of the Lord, then is says, the make straight in the deset a highway for our GODthen he says, Every vally shall be mad low- then he says the crooked shall be mad straight

How Many Are Sealed?
10 Jesus said to those in line for this sealing: “Have no fear, little flock, because your Father has approved of giving you the kingdom.” ( Luke 12:32) Other scriptures, such as Revelation 6:11 and Romans 11:25, indicate that the number of this little flock is indeed limited and, in fact, predetermined. John’s next words confirm this: “And I heard the number of those who were sealed, a hundred and forty-four thousand, sealed out of every tribe of the sons of Israel: Out of the tribe of Judah twelve thousand sealed; out of the tribe of Reuben twelve thousand; out of the tribe of Gad twelve thousand; out of the tribe of Asher twelve thousand; out of the tribe of Naphtali twelve thousand; out of the tribe of Manasseh twelve thousand; out of the tribe of Simeon twelve thousand; out of the tribe of Levi twelve thousand; out of the tribe of Issachar twelve thousand; out of the tribe of Zebulun twelve thousand; out of the tribe of Joseph twelve thousand; out of the tribe of Benjamin twelve thousand sealed.”— Revelation 7:4-8.
11 Could this not be a reference to literal, fleshly Israel? No, for Revelation 7:4-8 diverges from the usual tribal listing. ( Numbers 1:17, 47) Obviously, the listing here is not for the purpose of identifying fleshly Jews by their tribes but to show a similar organizational structure for spiritual Israel. This is balanced. There are to be exactly 144,000 members of this new nation—12,000 from each of 12 tribes. No tribe in this Israel of God is exclusively royal or priestly. The whole nation is to rule as kings, and the whole nation is to serve as priests.— Galatians 6:16; Revelation 20:4, 6.
12 Although the natural Jews and Jewish proselytes were given the first opportunity to be chosen for spiritual Israel, only a minority of that nation responded. Jehovah therefore extended the invitation to the Gentiles. ( John 1:10-13; Acts 2:4, 7-11; Romans 11:7) As in the case of the Ephesians, who previously had been “alienated from the state of Israel,” now non-Jews could be sealed with God’s spirit and become part of the congregation of anointed Christians. ( Ephesians 2:11-13; 3:5, 6; Acts 15:14) It is appropriate, then, for the 24 elders to sing before the Lamb: “With your blood you bought persons for God out of every tribe and tongue and people and nation, and you made them to be a kingdom and priests to our God, and they are to rule as kings over the earth.”— Revelation 5:9, 10.
13 The Christian congregation is “a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation.” (1 Peter 2:9) Replacing natural Israel as God’s nation, it becomes a new Israel that is “really ‘Israel.’” ( Romans 9:6-8; Matthew 21:43) For this reason, it was quite proper for Jesus’ half brother James to address his pastoral letter “to the twelve tribes that are scattered about,” that is, to the worldwide congregation of anointed Christians that in time would number 144,000.— James 1:1.

Let me tell you something .. Jehovah was used for the Old testament .. We live in the New Testament now and do you find Jehovah in the New Testament. Jehovah was just another name for God .. Do you find them using Jehovahs name to cast out devils in the Old Testament ? NO ! Revelation 1:8 - I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty. ~ Jesus said this .. We are reading from Isaiah are we not ? Isaiah 9:6 - For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, *The mighty God*, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace. Hey for Ian Wilson and the ones who "think" the name of the almighty should be Jehovah read this. 18 Let no man deceive himself.
1 Corinthians 3:18 If any man among you seemeth to be wise in this world, let him become a fool, that he may be wise.

19 For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written, He taketh the wise in their own craftiness.

20 And again, The Lord knoweth the thoughts of the wise, that they are vain.
Here is a little more Scripture for you .
John 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
John 1:14 And 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. John 1:15 John bare witness of him, and cried, saying, This was he of whom I spake, He that cometh after me is preferred before me: for he was before me.

John 1:1 Tells us that "The Word was god" in John 1:14 it says "And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us ! " then it talks about how we beheld his "glory" .. let me add this .. In Isaiah (which is the Old Testament) 42:8 , It says " i am the Lord: that is my name: and my 'glory' will i not give to another ~ and in 1 Corinthians 2:8 is says " which none of the princes of this world knew: for had that known it, they would not have crucified the 'Lord of glory'. They would not have crucified Jesus if they knew that he was god wrapped in flesh! Let me add 1 Timothy 3:16 .. "And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit,soon of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world,received up into *glory* " !!

Exodus 3:14 - And God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you.

John 8:24 - I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for if ye believe not that *I AM HE*, ye shall die in your sins.

* Act 2:38* Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of *Jesus Christ* for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.

Acts 8:16 (For as yet he was fallen upon none of them: only they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.)

Acts 10:48 And he commanded them to be baptized in the name of the Lord. Then prayed they him to tarry certain days.

Acts 19:5 When they heard this, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.

Henrietta, I can tell you exactly what to do. Find an Apostolic Church Preaching the Original Apostles Doctrine. Believe In Ephesians 4:5 Believe in Repentance and being BAPTIZED IN THE NAME OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST! ONE LORD!!ONE FAITH!!ONE BAPTISM!! JESUS IS OUR LORD GOD !! BELIEVE THIS WITH YOUR WHOLE HEART AND DO NOT HOLD TO THIS WORLD ANYMORE AND GET TO AN APOSTOLIC CHURCH !! GET YOU A MAN OF GOD IN YOUR LIFE! Romans 10:14 !! THERE IS ONLY ONE BAPTISM AND THAT'S THROUGH THE GLORIOUS SCRIPTURE ACTS 2:38 ONCE YOU TARRY LONG ENOUGH AT THAT ALTAR AND CRY OUT TO GOD YOU WANT TO CHANGE YOUR LIFE AND GIVE UP THE OLD MAN (OR WOMAN) AND PUT ON THE NEW YOU WILL RECEIVE THE HOLY GHOST WITH EVIDENCE OF SPEAKING IN TONGUES AND IT WILL HAPPEN!!!!! HAVE FAITH IT WILL !! BUT DO NOT HOLD TO THIS WORLD !!

John 1:1 & 1:14, this is the perfect combination of Spirit and matter. JESUS was already there in the spiritual form ever since the world begun. And the Word was made flesh that JESUS became matter, He exist in positive form. Note that under the umbrella of negative form were all unseen things & these are all Spirits while in positive form are all existing things. So to say, the Spirit which is GOD turn into Matter which is JESUS the Christ and the WORD of GOD is JESUS alone.

Sorry for some of the words i guess i wasnt paying too much attention to my writing .. more of looking into the Word and putting these scriptures out .. just looks those scriptures up and you will see for yourself that there Is only One Lord, One Faith, One Baptism !!

John 1:1 Tells us that "The Word was god" in John 1:14 it says "And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us ! " then it talks about how we beheld his "glory" .. let me add this .. In Isaiah (which is the Old Testament) 42:8 , It says " i am the Lord: that is my name: and my 'glory' will i not give to another ~ and in 1 Corinthians 2:8 is says " which none of the princes of this world knew: for had that known it, they would not have crucified the 'Lord of glory'. They would not have crucified Jesus if they knew that he was god wrapped in flesh! Let me add 1 Timothy 3:16 .. "And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit,soon of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world,received up into *glory* " !! I'll add more for you to look up ! John 1:10-11-12 . And the only way of receiving salvation is through his name! which is through Acts 2:38 .. And to finish it off .. Luke 2:11 " For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the "Lord" .. Ephesians 4:5 " One Lord, One Faith, One Baptism ! "

Ephesians 4:5 One Lord, One Faith, One Baptism.
I'll give scriptures to show the Oneness of God.
Isaiah 9:6 - Revelation 1:8 ( Jesus spake this ) Isaiah 44:6 - Isaiah 44:8. Isaiah 42:8 - 1 Corinthians 2:8 .. And to end this with no argument whatsoever .. John 1:1 - John 1:14 - * 1 Timothy 3:16 * - The only way of receiving Salvation is through Acts 2:38 !! Jesus Is GOD !

Does a person physically suffer because of bad decisions, or fate, or is our Father teaching us something? I am still young. I need to not suffer any more. My body is broken. 5 years ago I lost my church family. Its not possible to go anymore. I gave my yoke to Jesus, I pray, and I know my faith is from him. I have faith. Healing ... what is the answer to healing the body?
what else can I do? Thank you for this web site.
Henrietta

We can pick at the translations and debate the meaning of text or its original intent in Hebrew versus Greek. But in the end, the power of truth is far greater than the limitations imposed upon us by our language. How do we know the correct interpretation of John1:1? By knowing Jesus.

Hi Steve Kelly U didnt loose ur way u just took a detour on the wrong path but thank God for Jesus u r able to come back.Bro.u just have to surrender(ALL)Iknow where u r coming from ive been there with the UPS n DOWNS,but when i stopped trying to have my way n let God have his way evrythng fell into place,even with the marriage.I dont know ur wife christian values but i believe u do know the word n u know the word is binding on the believer,U do what is pleasing in the sight of the LORD,God will work evrything out.Ive learned the hard way through all the unnessary frustration,U CANT make a person,When u stop trying to make ur wife UNDERSTAND U n U start understanding"U"things will bcome more clearer.All things work together for the good to those who love the Lord n called according to his purpose.Surrender n watch God move!!!
