Is Jesus Almighty God?

[mee]

would that make me a witness too?

maybe a ridiculer

One of the signs marking "the last days" would be "ridiculers of Christs PRESENCE in kingdom power





For YOU know this first, that in the last days there will come ridiculers with their ridicule, proceeding according to their own desires and saying: "Where is this promised presence of his? Why, from the day our forefathers fell asleep [in death], all things are continuing exactly as from creation’s beginning."

2 peter 3;3

you are not on your own there are many out there .


yes Jesus (son of man)has been GIVEN great aurthority as the book of daniel informs us Daniel 7;13-14

maybe a ridiculer

at least not a liar

One of the signs marking "the last days" would be "ridiculers of Christs PRESENCE

can't be me

can't be me

its good that you recognise that Jesus has been present in kingly power since 1914 . and we have been living in that PRESENCE since then.

but there are many ridiculers out there .


Christ Jesus’ "presence" began in 1914. But his taking action as God’s Executioner to remove wickedness is yet future.

Consequently, the apostle’s warning to beware of ridiculers applies now with greater urgency.

Mee, do you believe in the Holy Spirit? Like, after Jesus was raised from death and went back into Heaven, that he sent the Holy Spirit-- the Comforter-- into the world on the day of pentecost?

 

[17th Angel]

Marsh, Mee is a JW..

JW's believe the "holy spirit" to be the force/will of god, his push, the push that makes you move. with it miracles have been performed, life created, worlds created, and his will been done.... In the JW belife.

i don't agree with the you

maybe you should read up on JW a bit

Doctrinal changes

At an international convention held at Cedar Point, in September 1922, a new emphasis was made on house-to-house preaching.[43] Significant changes in doctrine were made under Rutherford's leadership, including the 1918 announcement that Jewish patriarchs (such as Abraham and Isaac) would be resurrected in 1925, marking the beginning of Christ's thousand-year reign, accompanied by an earthly paradise.[44][45] The failed expectations for 1925, coupled with other doctrinal changes, resulted in a dramatic reduction in attendance at their yearly Memorial, from 90,434 in 1925 to 17,380 in 1928. By 1933, the timing of the beginning of Christ's presence (Greek: parousía), his enthronement as king, and the start of the "last days", were each moved to 1914. From 1935, converts to the movement were generally identified as those who, if worthy, would survive Armageddon and live on a paradise earth. Membership before this time was generally composed of those who believed they would be resurrected to live in heaven to rule over the earth with Christ.

since 1914 was not the year, the changes have continued ever since

but there are many ridiculers out there .

and you use Jesus' name as if an old toy you can sling around........... kind of rediculous, eh?

Christ Jesus’ "presence" began in 1914. But his taking action as God’s Executioner to remove wickedness is yet future.

jesus was considerd a christ in nicea, well before 1914

in fact, you would probably not even know who jesus was without the councils work almost 2 millenium back

Consequently, the apostle’s warning to beware of ridiculers applies now with greater urgency.

which apostle is warning you as of today?

it seems you think since 1914, he is here............ where is he? who is the apostle warning you now, with 'greater urgency'?

3 questions in this post..............

how about answer a question once in a while.

Well, if that's the case (but I'll have to wait for Mee to reply to know if he believes it or not), then haven't people been living in his presence since the day of pentecost, when his spirit went into the world?

 

[Bishadi]

Marsh,

that is why we still talking about him. The truth is 'alive.'

The same can be found from all of the contributers but it hurts to see people abuse the gifts and forgetting the messages.

All of it is from God.

none need to fib to know God, jesus or any of the works from the teachers throughout time. The love from even the most ridiculed, darwin (happy b-day) can be experienced and found true and good within existence (God).

nothing can be taken from God, to honor all that is God with honesty we can each learn how to be responsible to God by observing the knowledge revealed throughout the world............ by God

none.... are more pure to the next until it is learned and observed honestly and found true to all existence, equally.

quote]
I am glad to say that mee is not stuck in the early 1900s i read up on the progressive understanding of the Bible published by
JEHOVAHS WITNESSES ,and now i know just where we are in the stream of time, and THE INSIGHT That Jehovahs witnesses are recieving is very good indeed matthew 24;45-47.




For those early witnesses of Jehovah back in the 1800s and early 1900s it was a case of remaining faithful and not going off and becoming unfaithful ,it was a case of waiting for spiritual food at the right time. and NOW for those who did not go off insight indeed has been given them .



and NOW true knowledge is abundant DANIEL 12;4



and those faithful ones are certainly giving it out to mee and i just love it .


it fills me up with good bible based healthy food NICE

 

[mee]

Well, if that's the case (but I'll have to wait for Mee to reply to know if he believes it or not), then haven't people been living in his presence since the day of pentecost, when his spirit went into the world?

you are correct to say that the holy spirit was poured out at pentecost, and because of that great things were accomplished at that time .



but the PRESENCE of Jesus in kingly power is about that word PAROUSIA


"When will these things be, and what will be the sign of your presence [Greek, pa·rou·si´a] and of the conclusion of the system of things?"
Yes, John confidently looked forward to Jesus’ future presence.—Revelation 22:20; Matthew 24:3


.
The Greek word from which "presence" is translated is pa·rou·si´a, formed from pa·ra´ (alongside) and ou·si´a (being; derived from ei·mi´, meaning "be"). Hence, pa·rou·si´a means, literally, "being alongside," that is, a "presence." It is used 24 times in the Christian Greek Scriptures, frequently with regard to the presence of Christ in connection with his Messianic Kingdom.—Mt 24:3;


but many translations of the bible have used the word coming instead

Vine’s Expository Dictionary of Old and New Testament Words (1981, Vol. 1, pp. 208, 209) states: "PAROUSIA . . . denotes both an arrival and a consequent presence with.


Liddell and Scott’s Greek-English Lexicon (revised by H. Jones, Oxford, 1968, p. 1343) shows that pa·rou·si´a is used at times in secular Greek literature to refer to the "visit of a royal or official personage."




That Jesus’ pa·rou·si´a is not simply a momentary coming followed by a rapid departure but is, rather, a presence covering a period of time is also indicated by his words recorded at Matthew 24:37-39 and Luke 17:26-30.

Here "the days of Noah" are compared to "the presence of the Son of man" ("the days of the Son of man," in Luke’s account).
Jesus, therefore, does not limit the comparison just to the coming of the Deluge as a final climax during Noah’s days, though he shows that his own "presence" or "days" will see a similar climax.
Since "the days of Noah" actually covered a period of years, there is basis for believing that the foretold "presence [or "days"] of the Son of man" would likewise cover a period of some years, being climaxed by the destruction of those not giving heed to the opportunity afforded them to seek deliverance.


and since 1914 we have been living in a time just like Noahs, they take no note that Jesus has recieved his kingship and since1914 we are in the PRESENCE of the son of man.
He has recieved his kingship in the heavenly kingdom goverment and he is now a reigning king And the signs of the times are here since 1914
