Jesse has explained this well.
No human has ever seen God in His true essence, which is Spirit. God dwells in unapproachable light, so when He manifested to men He would surround Himself with things like clouds, pillar or fire, etc. because any sinful human cannot see Him and stay alive. This has to do with His absolute holiness and that He is as a Spirit is invisible to our mortal eyes.
Jesus, however, is the eternally existing Son of God as well as fully human. Prior to becoming Jesus, the Son of God was in the Father's bosom, meaning they were One unity though each a distinct person. They, along with the Holy Spirit existed in this Triune Oneness eternally before creation, and are still unified forever. The difference now is that the Son is still Jesus, God and Man. So, Jesus, the Son, knows the Father and has seen the Father from all eternity. They at inseparable in their unity but also distinct persons from each other. So all three persons in the Godhead eternally view each other in love and adoration. They have eternal fellowship, unity of will and all share the divine essence that no one else in all of creation has, complete, infinitely perfect eternal Life. All the Persons of the Trinity possess this divine essence maximally, infinitely, and communally.
Thankfully, God's eternal plan and purpose in creation is to share Himself with a creation who chooses His salvation in His Son, Jesus. Without Jesus, no man could ever be acceptable to have communion with God. I am very humbled when I consider the greatness and magnificence of God knowing I cannot comprehend so much about Him, but I can know Him within the limits of my creatureliness and be richly blessed and satisfied in all He provides for me in this life and more so in the next .
This psalm is an appeal to
God to be merciful. And bless
His people and an exhortation for His people to praise Him. It also expresses the desire for the nations to come to know their God as the only true God.
Verse 6 is distinguishing the God of the Israelites from all the false gods of the nations.
The psalm writer is hoping for all people to come to the God of the Israelites and praise Him alone.
Yes, a true friend who
Is a believer should inform her friend that you have concerns about some of the teachings of her church and be prepared to give specific Scriptural statements of what is true teachings that correct the specific false teachings you are aware of. This is loving to do.
Your friend may be hostile, but if you are calm and sincere she may be willing to listen further. If you believe that the cult is endangering her in an immediate way, speaking with more urgency is needed.
Yet any false belief is harmful to any believer. So, it is important to assure your friend if your love for her and not withdraw your friendship. Instead, continue to speak about this as opportunity arises. It helps to talk about what you agree on as well as what teachings you can show are not aligned with Scriptural beliefs. Surround this relationship with prayer and be prepared to speak about it.

May he bless our finances and break our ties, give us support and families, find strength and rest, do not complain, take treatment
and go to the hospital!! May the Lord bless and save our authorities, our directions, the Bible institutes, the rectorates, the universities and that the laws/programs/secularism change, to have good grades, to fast in the evening, that we can express ourselves, pray in languages more than others, always be cheerful, let every man be slow to speak, quick to listen and slow to get angry, listen to us, not be rejected or bullied, not hate or have arguments, eat good things, go to Mcdo, recover and heal from insomnia, that people come to see us, that the Lord smooths our ways and confirms prophecies, dreams, visions and dreams!! I pray that the Lord will unite and reconcile our loved ones (parents/grandparents, siblings, friends, neighbors, wife...), that they be saved, baptized in the Holy Spirit, as well as our promotions, that they go to church and read the Bible, may they seek the face of God and be born again, give us a new heart and spirit, may
It says in John 1:18 that no man hath seen God at any time; the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, he hath declared him.
The word begotten in the Greek text means unique. The only one who is in human form that represents God, the only begotten Son which is in the bosom of the Father, he hath declared him.
That is quite a statement! It is the relationship of the Word to the representative of God to man. First of all, nobody has ever seen God at any time. Nobody! The only one, (the only unique one) who has come from God, who is in the Father's bosom, (another word of equality), because He and the Father are one as He tells us in John 10:31.
He, that is Jesus Christ, He has declared God. The word for declared is EXEGESITO. That is where we get our word exegesis from. An exegete is somebody who takes something apart and declares in detail the facts about a subject.
There are the three principles being taught about Christ: in existence, in equality, and in essence.
In Existence: The only begotten Son Existed in the bosom of the Father.
In Equality: Bosom of the Father means that He is one with him.
And thirdly, In Essence: Jesus is God in human form.
In other words, if anybody wants to know about God, they go to Jesus Christ. He is not just a prophet. He's not just a rabbi. In the Christian faith and Biblical Christianity, He is God in the flesh, 100% God, 100% man!
Hope this helps!
Good Morning
That is another Gigi
Thanks for informing me about this group
I will look into it.
How did Abraham be live in heaven, Jesus relates to that no one had gone to heaven before him?
So all man before Christ does not go to Heaven :)
It is quite reasonable because God - the Real Father of the Christ - created a garden - the Eden ;)
And Father of Christ want to RE-new the whole Globe - So in revelation says about new Earth
so every man will be in that new Earth that links us to Exactly ISAIAH 45:18 where is about Earth,
that will be "inhabited".

Very well put. The same Spirit, also John 15:26-27, during those times, fulfilling the law and the prophets was a purpose. What can be unclear sometimes it was to the Jews first, it was not until all the prophecies concerning this had to be fulfilled. The beginning of the Church was Jews only and the law was still in play until Peters dream and Paul as we see in Acts 10 and Acts 15 and other places.
There is one thing I repeat over and over when I read or study is "He that hath ears to hear, let him hear". It reminds me to shake out my thoughts and preconceived ideas where I can hear what Jesus through the Holy Spirit is ready to show me. I still have much to hear and each time it is a wow, praise God moment.
God bless,

I would love to know what's in the original text and how it got translation into this banal meaning in KJV.
