Isa 9:6 how come the child is called Eternal father? if the child had a beginning then how can the child rightly be called eternal anything?

oh i knew it, i just wanted you to say it, so there are other 'gods', then in the Biblical
cannon, other than Jehovah. Have you any idea what the Hebrew term is and its
Greek equivalent, if you had it might give you a better understanding of why the term
is used.

Satan was the god of this world, which is why you and everyone else needs
to make sure when your refering to God you do so with a "G" not a "g" since
they mean two different things.

Originally posted by robbie carrobieYou understanding is still that of a child, IMO.
If there is a textual basis then the translators should take this into consideration when
rendering the verse either with a lower case g or a capital G, I think this is a far more
valid basis that on distinguishing Christ from Satan, dont you? after all, were not
children.

I am interested what the Biblical text states, why do you continually portray elements
that are not explicitly stated in the Biblical text?
Originally posted by whodeyWell, robbie has not even gotten to the point of using logic.
Something to consider for all those on either side of the debate.
Is this an inetllect problem or spiritual blindness?
If spiritual blindness then may I suggest merely using logic is not the answer?
It reminds me of a debate I got into with someone who was prochoice. I was in rare form that day and landed punch after punch without much of a rebut ...[text shortened]... w just because you lose a debate does not mean you are wrong. In the end, you go with your gut.

Well, robbie has not even gotten to the point of using logic.
He will not even admit he has a logic problem, so the spiritual
blindness could be a part of his problem, but I think we should
at least try to get past the logic problem. Then, of course, he
is still free to believe as he wishes. He at least accepts the
Holy Bible, at least one translation ...[text shortened]... no reasoning from
the scriptures at all with the atheists becasue of their complete
blindness.

why are you portraying elements that are not explicitly stated in the Biblical text? This
has nothing to do with me personally and its a sad reflection of your integrity that you
are trying to make it personal, again, why are you continually portraying elements that
are not explicitly stated in the Biblical text.

How many times do you want me to answer this question? It is in the
Biblical text, by the way.
Did not God provide you with a brain for you to reason with? Yes. Why don't
you use it to reason out what is true from what is written rather than deny
the truth because of a lack of an explicit statement that you wish to see?
The text says "Mighty God" ...[text shortened]... lasting Father is not
also called Almighty does not mean God is not "almighty" does it?
Originally posted by robbie carrobieYour Watchtower Society says God the Father created Jesus, the Word and
this should indicate this child to be incarnated is the only true God - RJH,
no its doesn't, there is nothing in the text to state that Jesus is the Almighty nor God
incarnate, infact the Bible states that mere human judges are also refered to as gods,
angels as god-like ones, you are therefore making it up,
I shall ask again, why are you portraying elements that are not in the Biblical text.
