Dave RParticipant
Tim,
You must be extremely busy with everything you are doing. Thank you for your continued ministry. I believe I have found my answer in your teaching of “Unity and the Fundamentals”. Thank you for the wealth of knowledge you have made available.
Dave RParticipantTim, thank you for the education. The “sharing” part referred only to the 3 points I had mentioned. I had read about their belief about Jesus being created vs begotten prior to writing. I just wanted confirmation that this was not just a translation issue or a “subtle”difference on their part.
Blessings!Dave RParticipantThank you Tim!
The point you made about Adam not having a sin nature but still sinned I did bring up. And I would have brought up Jesus as another example yet I know that the answered would be because He was God and man (hypostatic union). That is a conversation for another day.
On another note, how would you suggest sharing with a Jehovah Witness? They tend to share similar beliefs – they dismiss immortality of the soul, the Trinity, eternal hellfire. Thank you.Dave RParticipantTim,
Thank you for your explanation and guiding me to your article. I should have known that you would have already addressed this. I will be more diligent to check your sources before asking. I know you must be busy with all of the work you are doing. Yet you cared enough to point me to your article…and for that thank you!
Dave RParticipantTim, your explanation is very logical…thank you! But I would like to piggyback a question off of this subject. Why was it necessary to include the Holy Breath in the great commission? If the Breath is an invisible extension of the Father (and I have come to believe that), it seems almost redundant to say “baptizing them in the name of the Father, Son and Holy Breath.”
Thank you!
Dave RParticipantTim,
thank you for the clarification. Your work and willingness to share has been invaluable!

March 26, 2022 at 11:39 pm in reply to: The place Jesus prepares now (John 14:2-3) as the New Jerusalem (Rev 21) #2494Dave RParticipantTim, I want to ask some questions regarding the last statement of your answer above that Jesus is sitting at the right hand of the Father. Is this a metaphor? I thought no one has seen the Father except the pre-incarnate Son and angels. And now, if Jesus is fully human (in His resurrected body) does He possess the ability to see the Father? Will we have this privilege in our resurrected bodies? Can the Father be seated on an actual throne as mentioned in various places in the Bible? I don’t want this to sound like one of those silly questions such as if God can make anything can He make something he can’t lift…but I believe God exists outside of creation but wouldn’t Heaven also His creation therefore would He exist outside if it?
Thank you!
