Excellent point JD
And we should do the exact same thing with God's
Words - that is, let Him be God and refrain from adding
our meaning to His Word, or subtracting His meaning
from His Word as has been done in the past and is
ongoing today. His Word says that He hates
mixture. His Word says that Jesus was/is pure and holy from
His birth. I rest my case..
OK -- so why not say it that way? When you say "Then
he's a Mormon Jesus - who has a
problem with that?" you are not speaking of a single aspect of the
Mormon Jesus. You are equating Lance's teaching with Mormonism
AND THE ASSOCIATED BIAS THAT EXISTS ON THIS FORUM. You are
simply trying to win the argument with the use of such language.
Words mean something. We should mean what we say
and actually say what we mean. jd

I'm speaking of one aspect ONLY JD and that is
the "exactly like us" part.
This tells me that those who make and profess
such doctrines have no understanding or
spiritual discernment and do not walk in the fear
of God..
The God of the earth, the Mormon God of this earth, is some guy who
made it on another planet and was given this planet as a
reward! Where, in all that, Judy, do you see
even a similarity between that view and the one that declares Christ to
be both YHWH and Messian !!!!??? If you truly believe
this, you neither understand the Mormon God nor the Christian
God.
And, as I have said before -- your God is neither of
the two. You stand alone with your thinking on
this. Need I bring up BSF or your pastor again?
Actually, Strong and Dakes probable [both] disagree with
you.
You stand alone.

Then he's a Mormon Jesus ... who has a
problem with that??
Jesus is neither unambiguously human
with our humanity nor unambiguously God with God's divinity. This
would make Jesus some 'third thing'. (Arianism)
Sometimes you will hear people say
'Jesus is human all right but, he's more than human. That which is
more than human isn't human. That which is less than God isn't God.
So, said the Arians, Jesus is more than human but less than
God.
JESUS IS WHOLLY GOD AND WHOLLY HUMAN
SIMULTANEOUSLY.
