also this one

Act 4:12 Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.

Besides YAHOVAH there is no Saviour, Isa 43:11

There is Salvation in none other than Jesus, Act 4:12

These two verses alone show that YAHOVAH is God,
that Jesus is God

Not two God's though ac as you believe in, a mighty god jesus, and a almighty god jehovah,
there is but one God, which you don't and cannot possibly understand, listening to fallen angels through your elders.

Jud 1:18 How that they told you there should be mockers in the last time, who should walk after their own ungodly lusts.

When being the Word of God, Jesus is equal to Father:

Php 2:7  But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men:

You are the ignorant one here, King James translate the Hebrew word " Sheol" as Grave/Hell

So they are right.








The grave is only one meaning, one place, of hell:

hell
G86
ᾅδης
hadēs
hah'-dace
From G1 (as a negative particle) and G1492; properly unseen, that is, “Hades” or the place (state) of departed souls: - grave, hell.
Total KJV occurrences: 11


hell
H7585
שְׁאֹל שְׁאוֹל
she'ôl    she'ôl
sheh-ole', sheh-ole'
From H7592; hades or the world of the dead (as if a subterranian retreat), including its accessories and inmates: - grave, hell, pit.
Total KJV occurrences: 65


hell
G1067
γέεννα
geenna
gheh'-en-nah
Of Hebrew origin ([H1516] and [H2011]); valley of (the son of) Hinnom; gehenna (or Ge-Hinnom), a valley of Jerusalem, used (figuratively) as a name for the place (or state) of everlasting punishment: - hell.
Total KJV occurrences: 12


ταρταρόω
tartaroō
tar-tar-o'-o
From Τάρταρος Tartaros̄ (the deepest abyss of Hades); to incarcerate in eternal torment: - cast down to hell.




Then there is the Lake of Fire:

Rev_19:20  And the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet that wrought miracles before him, with which he deceived them that had received the mark of the beast, and them that worshipped his image. These both were cast alive into a lake of fire burning with brimstone.
Rev_20:10  And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever.
Rev_20:14  And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death.
Rev_20:15  And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.

verse 14 means death and hell(the grave) will no longer exist,
and all persons since creation who were not found written in the book of life are thrown into the Lake Of Fire,
their first death was the grave, their second death is the Lake Of Fire, and now is the beginning of eternity.

Why do you take verses out of the context in which they are used? Read phillipians chapter 2 and see why Paul made that statement

Wouldn't have been pride for Jesus when he was on earth to equate himself to God even when They were of thesame nature?

Jws are looking for the verse where Jesus Christ said He is God. Isn't it wanting Jesus to be proud?

They called Jesus God in the bible Jesus didnt complain they gave Jesus Christ accolades given to God yet He didn't kill, curse or say they will not have eternal life so why should it be wrong to call Jesus Christ God.

Like I said ask the Holy Spirit for guidance and understanding of the bible He will lead you.

by your reckoning Father calling Jesus " O GOD " would prove Jesus superior

it doesn't, it has been shown that Father and the Word, who became Jesus Christ are equal.

Father calls the shots and the Word Jesus Christ performs them, that is their way,
it is also the way on earth with man, one is foreman, the other carries out his instructions,
with two men calling the shots, there would be confusion as in the false jw org.


How can the Word have been created, when there is nothing that has been created that He(the Word) didn't create.

Joh 1:3  Everything came into existence through him. Not one thing that exists, was made without him.

so if Jesus was created as you and ac wrongly say, then Jesus either created Himself or he doesn't exist.

Have you forgotten that Philipians 2:3 Tell each Christian to "regard others as
better than and superior to himself"! , Then in verse 5 it says this attitude was in Christ Jesus too and we SHOULD IMITATE his Example.

Are you now telling me Christ whose example we want to follow, didnt regard his God has better than , Above and Superior to himself ?




Jesus was not proud. when people called him God or gave him accolades given to God he never cursed them or said they sinned. He even ascribed honour given to only God to Himself read your bible alone and ask the Holy Spirit to give you understanding of the scripture.

They are not equal considering your own hypostatic union, Jesus still has a Body of flesh nature .. Whereas the Almighty Father doesn't have such weak nature ; So you can see both are not the same with Nature

The nature of God is Spirit, Same with the angels . Using that part is illogical since it would mean angels are equal to God Almighty. practical nonsense


Truth has been established, God is Greater in Authority than Christ ( 1 Cor 11:3)

Jesus is God

the context here is " Authority " .

Neither are you a lesser human being than The Governor of your state . By Virtue of Authority, he is greater than You , thats the point. ( 1 Cor 11:3)

The governor and myself are both human beings

That's really laughable, like cap, you don't understand scriptures and their meanings
duh, the word was in God's form as in John 1:1, was with and was God

ha ha, confused ac, the verse doesn't say Jesus robbed God, but that Jesus didn't think it robbery to be equal to God,
in other words Jesus considered Himself equal to God, wow you so duh, no understanding whatsoever.
I would explain more to you but you couldn't possibly understand and you wouldn't believe if you could
you are hooked in the false jw sect.
I can easily predict who you are, I know you will run back to your John 1:1 once I typed the post you replied to. The last straw you are hanging onto. Keep it up!!!!!!!!

Read something you can understand and stop wasting your time.

English Standard Version
who, though he was in the form of God, did not count equality with God a thing to be grasped, - Phil 2:6

Christ did not think of Such thing as equality with God. thats the message of this verse
Johnw74 make do with the advice given by captivator?

ha ha, cap, you don't understand your own posted verse, oh false accusing one

English Standard Version
who, though he was in the form of God, did not count equality with God a thing to be grasped, - Phil 2:6
7 but emptied himself, by taking the form of a servant,[a] being born in the likeness of men.

though Jesus was in the form of God, He did not, yes that's right, did not, count equality with God a thing to be grasped - held onto, but emptied Himself and became a man

KJV Php 2:6 Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God:
Php 2:7 But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men:

and here's another for you to disbelieve cap, there are many verses that are clear,
in fact they all are, but not to you smiley:

GOD'S WORD Php 2:6  Although he was in the form of God and equal with God, he did not take advantage of this equality. 
Php 2:7  Instead, he emptied himself by taking on the form of a servant, by becoming like other humans, by having a human appearance.


You also disbelieved this verse which backed up the KJV verse I posted about Jesus being equal to God.

Joh 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.


You such a denier of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, you must be a false jw

Mat_10:33  But whosoever shall deny me before men, him will I also deny before my Father which is in heaven.


GOD'S WORD Php 2:6  Although he was in the form of God and equal with God, he did not take advantage of this equality. 

Why will Jesus take advantage of what he has already attained since Jesus is the one God?
KJV Php 2:6 Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God:
Why would a thought of not robbing the position of equality he has already attained come to Jesus mind if indeed he has already attained it.
Or perhaps you need a better translation,
English Standard Version
who, though he was in the form of God, did not count equality with God a thing to be grasped, - Phil 2:6
. The simplest of Jesus mental attitude, The simplest of Jesus mind you are not ready to follow. Haba Johnw74

Do you read his response at all. Please do well to define nature let us see how far you can go about that.

Why do you take verses out of the context in which they are used? Read phillipians chapter 2 and see why Paul made that statement

Wouldn't have been pride for Jesus when he was on earth to equate himself to God even when They were of thesame nature?

Jws are looking for the verse where Jesus Christ said He is God. Isn't it wanting Jesus to be proud?

They called Jesus God in the bible Jesus didnt complain they gave Jesus Christ accolades given to God yet He didn't kill, curse or say they will not have eternal life so why should it be wrong to call Jesus Christ God.

Like I said ask the Holy Spirit for guidance and understanding of the bible He will lead you.
You could have asked yourself, Paul statement, was it made when Jesus was on earth? or was Paul through inspiration was talking about what the mind of Christ was long before he came to the earth to carry out the purpose his father sent him for? When you answer that question you know the context you are referring to.
Please define ''mind of Christ'' according to that scriptures.
