Jeff Darnell's comment on 2020-12-27 22:59:38:

"is come" is and imperfect tense meaning GOD came in the flesh and "is" still coming in the flesh today. Christ in you the hope of glory (Col 1:27). Jesus said I AM the Alpha the Omega the beginning and the end which is which was which is to come THE ALMIGHTY Rev 1:8

Jesus said "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" You must confess that Jesus (I) AM (He) The One True God or you will die in your sins. In Isaiah 43:10 God says you are a witness that the servant he has chosen that you may know, believe, and understand that I (God) AM (He) Jesus. The Son of God is the Father manifested in the flesh.

But then again you can only call Jesus LORD by the Holy Ghost (1 Corn 12:3) so until the Holy Ghost shows you,, but you should looking to God for answers not a MAN. Praying for you

Hi. Just read your page about the anti-christ, of which you post a list of possible candidates. Unless I missed something, why isn't Bill Gates on your list? Microsoft owns "Patent 060606" -- He's heavily invested in micro-chipping quantum/ nano-technology; and one vaccine with an enzyme called "LUCIFERASE". His vaccines have injured thousands over the years. He's controlling the entire world right now. People trust him. He giggles, smiles & grins when he's questioned about his so-called "save the world vaccines". Can you NO SEE WHAT IS RIGHT IN FRONT OF YOUR EYES?

Rob's comment on 2020-10-27 08:29:22:

I have no problem , I stick

To the revealed word of God .

God said this is my beloved Son in whom I'm well please .

I'm very much in agreement with Gods witness on record , don't add to Gods word .

If you truly understand what the witness of God is then you will not add more to it .

I'm not adding you are .

Think twice who is right you or anyone's else , or God .

Gods witness on record is enough to those that believe it , and receive it they have the witness in themselves .

Alex's comment on 2020-10-27 04:53:32:

Rob you are the one with a problem GEE WHIZ GET A LIFE, The Father wd NOT instruct all the Angels to worship his Son if he were not God THE SON. The Father himself wd be breaking the 1st commandment if he instructed all the angels to worship his son if he were not God . Jesus though it not robbery to be equal to his Father saying all mine is thine and all thine is mine. The Father said that everything has to multiply after its kind EVERYTHING IN HEAVEN AND EARTH And we see that CHRIST can indeed multiply after the God kind with his good seed the LIVING WORD Saying to whom the WORD came ( his seed )made them Gods,Thats y he said that which is born of the spirit is spirit as God is spirit he is able to reproduce after the GOD KIND which proves he is truly God the Son Everything has to multiply after its Kind no exceptions. His seed is truly the seed of God he wd not refer to his seed as "GOOD" IF IT WERE NOT GOD. There cd not be an Israel of GOD "the kingdom" if the son were not God. His GOOD SEED is gona bring in the Israel of God th woman with CHILD. When the FATHER said go forth and multiply that was addressed to Christ also thats y the son will go forth and sow his precious seed in humanity that he might be multiplied as the stars of heaven in us sinners the H.G is his fruit our new innerman, our new heart and new spirit ok gbu

Dear Brother Rob, God bless you

So who or what (I do not know which to use in this case) is Jesus Christ? Please speak clearly.

Peace & Love in Christ

1 John 4.3

What is the Spirit of Antichrist?

It denies that Jesus Christ the one God gave witness to at his Baptism and on the mount transfiguration.

Is the Christ .

It's a spiritual Christ , not the same as Jesus of Nazareth, born in Bethlehem. Born of God , the Son of God .

If you add to the witness of God on who God said Jesus is you are adding to Gods very witness .

You can find scriptures that could imply more . But now you are contradicting the very solid scriptures . And so many many of them

Over 40 verses call Jesus the Son of God . None say Jesus is GOD of a Godhead . You have a very serious problem here .

Yes Thomas called him my lord and God , and I don't have a problem with that .

Some people call Buddha their God too ! And we know it's just a stone figure like other idols .

The spiritual Jesus is The I AM GOD JESUS. Totally contrary to the real Jesus Christ .

Jesus said before Abram was I am .

He is not saying I A M GOD , but being born of God he has a relationship with God that was before Abraham, quite different.

Because he is Born of God .

And mature in God , so he could say I and my father are one . But the father was in control and Jesus obeyed him . Jesus followed GODs lead .

Only The LORD GOD can say I AM GOD and there is no other . Also known as the Father of All ... and Jesus clearly called Him father .

Anyone else is an impostor. To claim to be I Am GOD .

James said you do well to know there is only 1 GOD . Even the devils know and tremble .

The Anti Christ himself will exalt himself as being GOD , this I AM spiritual Jesus is heading that way .

Read 1 John 4 , 1,2,3,4

DOUGLAS MUTUKU's comment on 2015-02-20 10:05:58:

Verily Verily, As Far As My Spiritual Knowledge Abt Jesus Is Concerned,,i Believe That, Jesus Christ Was There Even Before The Creation Of The World.., He Made Himself A Human Xo As To Reach The Humankind, Particularly For The Purpose Of Salvation en Deliverance Of Humankind From His Sinful Nature. Amen

Barry's comment on 2014-09-08 02:39:32:

just about every cult out there for example Jehovah 's witnesses do believe that Jesus came in the flesh, to them jw s and the cults Jesus was just a human being. Just because you believe that Jesus Christ came in the flesh does not mean that you have the Spirit of Truth you will more likely have the spirit of error operating in your life Everyone that confess that Jesus Christ is God in the flesh has the Spirit of Truth. Do you believe that Jesus is God ? 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. 1Tim 3 16 KJV God was manifest in the flesh God was manifest in the flesh God was manifest in the flesh Be blessed in Jesus Name

That anybody that confesses that Jesus existed as a human is of God regardless of their religious beliefs
