Bible Discussion Thread

If God commands "thou shall have no other Gods before me", then why did he send Jesus Christ How do we know that it was not a trick

Thank you very much, I hope not to be offensive but to learn the truth.

I'm sorry as I got that commandment mixed up with the second commandment. It applies to graven images. The other thing I usually say is that to understand the Bible, it is always good to also talk to your minister or priest or leader of your church as then you can discuss it in more detail and get and give instant feed back. He generally has more experience in responding; and because of that, would not make mistakes like I do. I like that part of the second commandment so much; and it is so powerful;I simply over done it.

Please, you took the time to share some knowledge with me, I am grateful.. mistakes are ok as we are all students of life ..

Very kind of you to share your time and I thank you..

Brooke, this is even difficult for mature Christians to fully understand, as God presents Himself in a way that is beyond the realm of our human understanding & experience. We believe that God is One God, but He, in His Power, sent forth His Word to Earth to fulfil His Will. This Word was made a man, Jesus, (see Jn 1:1-14) for the sole purpose to present God's Word to His people & to give His Life for them. Jesus would pay the price of their sin through death & resurrection, so by believing, the people would not have to be cast in hell as punishment. And, those who believed had help to live this new life, so were given God's Spirit. This is God's Fullness:Father, Son & Spirit: ONE God only.

Thank you, that was a very good explanation and it's very much appreciated..

Sincerely...

Brooke

Hello, because Jesus is God. JOHN 10:30

Thank you, this is perhaps one of the easiest to understand and perhaps the truest, as far as I can see so far.
