-Removed-Seems that someone is mad because I refer to other believers in Christ that I am reasonably convinced are Christian brothers or sisters as such.
This is just Divegeester unable to refute deification, jumping instead to sectarianism. From there he'll jump to maybe plageurism or chained up space aliens or how come I am not running through the streets yelling "Fire! Fire!" or maybe how come I am not an official leader in some heirarchy. He runs in a curcuit around and around.
He hops around to recycle old accusations to cover up abject incompetence to refute any single matter I write about.
I expect the pushback to this post to be demands that I be able to label everyone on the Forum as to who is and who is not a Christian.
Oh, I forgot about his recycled three headed idol card to mock the Trinity.

Let’s see where it goes
Good idea. May I ask you a question brother?
Now, Hebrews 7:25 says something very interesting.
"But He, because He abides forever, has His priesthood unalterable. Hence also He is able to save to the uttermost those who come forward to God through HIm, since He lives always to intercede for them."
Christ lives eternally.
Christ is an interceding Priest eternally.
His petitions, intercessions, prayers on our behalf are able to save us "save . . . to the uttermost." He lives forever to intercede for us.
In light of this activity of Christ why is deification of the saved (properly understood) so blaphemous or unlikely to consider ?
A key phrase there is "deification . . . properly understood".
You have to ignore the demi-god making the skeptics wish to associate with deification.
Would you not think Christ the great interceding HIgh Priest knows for what and how much to petition His Father FOR in our behalf ?

@sonship saidYou present weak evidence. You blank out responses to your bogus elicitations. You don't seek a discourse at all.
A key phrase there is "deification . . . properly understood".
You have to ignore the demi-god making the skeptics wish to associate with deification.
And then you claim that your weak evidence, if "properly understood" BY YOU [of course], is somehow turned into corroborating "evidence"?
It's obviously true if, as you assert, it is "properly understood"?
It's textbook IPSE DIXIT.
@sonship saidI think, for a long time, your deification nonsense was less conspicuous, but now that it is in the full glare of the sun, all Christians here are recoiling away from you, some even calling your beliefs blasphemous.
What do you think PB1022?
Christ, ever living to intercede for us.
Do you think that could conceivably mean intercession for salvation to deification - "save . . . to the uttermost?"
No, this thread has not gone well for you.
