@sonship saidSo why are you criticising him for it then?
@divegeester
Of course it is "ok" that he do what his free will decides to do.

@sonship saidYou seem to be having difficulty answering a direct question sonship; something you were chastising Rajk999 over a few posts back.
@divegeester
Did you read my entire reply?
Or did you just read the first line?
@sonship saidYou are the biggest jacka$$ on this site. I dont confess anything before jacka$$es, neither do I care to answer your foolish questions. Im here to identify errors in your teachings, and show everyone that your teachings run contrary to the teachings of Jesus Christ.
My purpose is neither to embarrass him or humiliate him or even to "win" an argument for winning an argument's sake. My purpose is to get him to consider before God that he really should openly confess in the Holy Spirit that Jesus is Lord.
As to your question "Is it ok Rajk999 [not] answer your direct yes or no question . . . " .
No one can FORCE hi ...[text shortened]... nfess that JESUS CHRIST IS LORD to the glory of God the Father." (Phil. 2:10,11 RcV my bolding) [/b]
@rajk999 saidHow DARE you talk to the self anointed one in that way!

@divegeester saidLol .. he thinks he is anointed by God to convert people on this site.
How DARE you talk to the self anointed one in that way!
@sonship saidI think you should
For human beings to go from not knowing Jesus is Lord to knowing and confessing Jesus is Lord is of course a conversion.
To take the message of this conversion to everyone is the privilege and responsibility not of some elite group of Christians but to every Christian.
The mocking tone of "he thinks he is especially anointed to convert" reveals some blindness ...[text shortened]... the critic.
All Christians should be "holding forth the word of life" (Phil. 2:16).
@sonship saidJesus was clear in his meaning. God was greater than himself.
Christ, said "the Father is greater than I". Actually in His utter humility even those whom He came to DIE for He must have regarded in some sense greater than Himself.
Jesus was clear in his meaning. God was greater than himself.
@sonship saidWhy did you edit the following out of my post:
@Ghost-of-a-Duke
Jesus was clear in his meaning. God was greater than himself.
You're a funnty kind of desperate hypocrit.
And when Jesus was clear in His meaning you STILL disbelieve in God.

Hi Son
"The Lord" is not a name, but a title. In the times of Isaiah it would have referred to Bale Worship.
Isaiah 42:8 (ASV) I am Jehovah, that is my name; and my glory will I not give to another, neither my praise unto graven images.
On the point of
"And now, glorify Me along with Yourself, Father, with the glory which I had with You before the world was." (John 17:5)" proving a triune god, that isn't the case. This passage references a pre-existence with God, and would tie in with Jesus being "the firstborn of all creation" (Col 1:15).
This idea of Christ being part of a Trinity and being Co-equal to The Father (Athanasian Creed) doesn't stand up.
