@Dillisyp "Unless we are free to disobey, then we are not free to obey."
"Only until when we are free to choose then are we free to love."
He created us with free will. Even if He is Sovereign and we live and operate under His set rules, He still doesn't interfere with our choices.
@JediEth0@VictoryOlaleye Furthermore, the source of Jannes and Jambres magic were the Egyptian gods. God was trying to prove that He is far much better than all the Egyptian gods. Every Plague was a strike to an Egyptian God. Darkness on the land was a strike to the Egyptian god Ra.
@JediEth0@VictoryOlaleye ...serve a greater good and to Glorify His Own Name. In this scenerio, the magicians snakes were swallowed.
He has given us free will, but He still remains Supreme. We can do whatever we want, great inventions, and stuff, but we are still very very limited.
@Ola_Korede213@JediEth0@VictoryOlaleye ....and invisible
Plus the whole Universe is simply code, a program, following rules set in place by an Entity that i recognize as God. That's why it's written that "in the beginning was the Word..."
The devil has been around long enough to understand the code and manipulate it.
@Ola_Korede213@JediEth0@VictoryOlaleye Everything flows back to a Divine Creator.
There have been steps to reach where we are today.
Programming is carried out in IDE's that have been developed by someone.
Without a hardware, a program cannot run. Software entirely depends on the hardware. God made what is visible...
@JediEth0@VictoryOlaleye I think it's an understandable analogy.
Here is a another - A software programmer who can write & edit his code the way he wants to, and a hacker who manipulates the code to achieve a certain goal. So the hackers were still in the parameters of the Programmer.
@Muchsin55690576@RebelMAGA4547 I think that's what makes the whole story interesting, we are all sinners. He came from a line of sinners and broken people. And the Bible is honest about it. He breaks that lineage by being born of no seed of Adam - that meaning He is the only one born not of sin.
@S0Divx@korrathetaymi 😅 well, there were witnesses. Man was even blinded by the light that emanated from Jesus. Something about the Disciples and how they were all called; witnesses had to be. It's as if Jesus already knew how necessary it would be for other people to confirm. Ie. Ananias.
@korrathetaymi You missed the entire point of the message. Can an orchid seed behave the same way a mustard seed can?
Can it grow from such a small size to such huge sizes?
Jesus was contextually 100% right and you are contextually wrong.
And you yet haven't considered the translation issue.
@KR3Wmatic The Son of God was a way Jews of the old used to refer to God Himself due to how they respected and revered Him.
So for they to communicate and actually talk about Him without mentioning His titles such as YHWH, they called Him the Son of God. That's why they tried to stone Jesus
@ISBzamani@korrathetaymi Man because He was born of a woman
God because He was born not of the seed of man
Man, He wept
God, He forgave sins
Man, He felt hunger.
God, He made food and drinks ex nihilo.
Man He died.
God He ressurected.
His whole life is proof. None is like Him. We don't follow blindly
@ISBzamani@korrathetaymi He found none, everyone failed, Moses, Abraham, Joseph, David, Jeremiah.
That's why He had to come down Himself. Humility potrayed ,love potrayed.
That's why we have such a passage in Revelations 5:4.
Only 1 has been found worthy from the beginning of time to the end of time.
@ISBzamani@korrathetaymi Have you read the book of Hebrews? Written to the Jews?
God hardened their hearts for a reason. It's all written down if you choose to study, and there's a grand plan. And it's slowly unfolding.
And if you think it's all the Jews read Romans 11.
The Word of God is Alive.
@ISBzamani@korrathetaymi Don't you understand that God has been Triune since before the beginning?
God is One. That even demons know and they tremble. One essence, 3 persons.
Research Theophanies.
Know who "walked" the garden of Eden
Who fought Jacob
Who visited Abraham
The burning bush
And other places.
