Excelent post, Runningman.
I agree! Your reasoning is sound and consistent.
Jesus lets them reign with him. that is fine. Maybe you have heard that he is the Christ -- i.e., the king. The Roman Empire had people reigning with Caesar. This is the kingdom of Christ. The reign is by God based on the testimony of scripture. Thus we know Christ is God with the Father.
So Pancho wants to deny what God says because Pancho does not understand what God can do.
Now your are a universalist. wonderful.
so the multitude thought that the disciples were given authority to forgive sins against God. I guess you have reason to believe their logic and that you have other passages to back up your unusual ideas.
That does not exclude the sin being against God. Maybe you have an argument somewhere else
I see you misconstrue scripture consistently. I'm not sure why you bring up a Trinitarian passage to deny the deity of Christ.
Not wat Scripture says. Reigning with someone and the kingdom belonging to people means Christ isn't the exclusive head. Thus we have proof from Scripture that Jesus is not God.
Nope.
No mention of God in the verse.
It says you can speak against the son of man and be forgiven in direct contrast to speaking against God and not being forgiven. As I already said, your theology overrides the reading of the text. You always have something to explain it all away.
What did God say that Pancho denies?
oh my. Now you are deny Jesus Christ is Christ. How on earth do you reconcile denying Jesus is Christ? You cannot logically deny Christ and be a Christian.
Jesus is the Christ. What on earth are you talking about. Did you know Christ means the anointed? There are many anointed in Scripture.
okay. You don't make sense in general, but we can acknowledge that through Christ we become children of God. Jesus however is the unique one who is the Son of God. But you won't agree with scripture.
So Jesus is king but he is not the king. I do not quite understand this. You have a quantum mechanics being. You really do not make sense.
Christ doesn't mean king. Which verse are you talking about specifically?
I guess God ceased to exist in your universe. It does not have to be stated in every verse where some one sins. You cannot argue by absence of mention of God here.
It does not say "God" here but rather the Spirit of God. You like to drop off the Spirit because you deny the essence of God. If you can get the translators simply to remove "Spirit of," then you can point to that translation to make your argument.
Okay. we must simply assume you read the scripture but with a veil over your understanding. That is said everyone. ENough of your nonsense. Please!!
If you like Pancho's religious ideas, follow him then.
God exists. Are you trying to gas light me? Seems you are assigning a lot of things to me I never said.
God isn't the son of man in the Bible.
