I am sure I do not understand your reasoning in this post. It seems that you do not accept that the scriptures is one continuous revelation of God concerning his redemption story and the characters are identified and explained and many of them appear throughout history. We recognize them by...

Let me help you in your thinking some here. If you approach the text already knowing what you think about it, it will not be able to teach you anything. You must draw your doctrine from the words and the context. First, we know that Job is a historical man. Job 1:1 There was a man in the...

The Translators of the KJV thought the word was son. I want a sure Christian faith so I only accept one English translation to teach me and I do not doubt it in any way. Some tell me that it is a fault, but I say I am never guessing. If we all were taught by the same words there would be much...

Two things. (1. Every man mentioned in Luke's genealogical table was the son of the name that preceded him. No one preceded Adam but God. The idea that we should come away with is that God wants us to know that Adam was his son. Adam was certainly like God. He was in his image, a trinity. All...

No, I am saying any created being that has the Spirit indwelling them is a called a son of God, hence Adam, a created tri-partite being, and the sons of God, who were created on the 4th day of creation. Let me just say here that we know little about the dynamics of the pre-flood world. It was...

I hope you are well. I too have been absent for a few days. I just answered one of your interesting points. My plan was to comment of some more of them. Here, I will briefly answer this point. We can know that Adam is the son of God in Lk 3:38 because God is renewing the original image of his...

The word not intended to be pejorative but to indicate you lack of knowledge on the subject. You can believe and teach anything you want. I have given you several reasons why you cannot possibly be right in what you are teaching but I defend your right to teach it. I certainly do not want to...

Ben, the last thing I want to be is unkind or insulting to you but, being honest, there is no excuse for this kind of ignorance distrubuted in this post. All these sons of God in the NT have been born again of the Spirit of Christ when he was received as a permanent member of their persons based...

Why not? How do you decide what part of the Bible you will believe?

Words are to be believed. When the words of Gen 6 were written only God knew if they were true. He said the result of the sons of God marrying the daughters of men were giants. The next time the sonsof God are mentoned is in the book of Job. Here is what God said to Satan about Job. Job 1:8...

I would remind you that we would not even know that angels existed at all if not for the scriptures record. I have not ever seen or heard one. Therefore we are restricted to all our information from the Divinely Inspired scripture record. God inspired Moses to write the history concerning what...

Okay, Salty, I am going with the idea that you know what you are talking about and therefore I am never going to copy the KJV. I promise. I will just read it and study it and believe it. Thanks for the info.

It is not within the ways of God to throw terms out without defining them. When he uses the term "sons of God" he gives enough information in other parts of the Bible so we can use wisdom in our studies and we can compare them. With diligence and a bended knee and a heart to receive the light...

In the long run, what does that mean?
