Quote:you have given us your views plainly, that Jesus Christ, who is God Almighty Himself died. And I thank you for your efforts in explaining your views.
No more arguments from my side.
Since FHC did not say that, perhaps you should ask yourself who put those words in your mouth, and why.
Quote:You may be an ambassador to England or France,
You may like to gamble, you might like to dance,
You may be the heavyweight champion of the world,
You may be a socialite with a long string of pearls
But you're gonna have to serve somebody, yes indeed
You're gonna have to serve somebody,
Well, it may be the devil or it may be the Lord
But you're gonna have to serve somebody. -Bob Dylan
Again, it isn't about a God who died, it is about a God who humbled himself. The alpha and the omega. The proud and humble. The punisher and forgiver. The alive and dead. The flesh and the spirit. The godly and the human. Jesus represents all the extremes in balance.
Kind of like the number zero. It represents nothing, and the whole of everything.
