Sinners cannot understand the Bible!
RE: Sinners cannot understand the Bible!
Retorth Wrote:Where does the holy spirit come in your explanation?

As I understand it the Holy Spirit is just another manifestation of God - through true believers (not social tag-alongs or false prophets). The Holy Spirit is used by believers to describe being exposed to the mind of God in a way, however brief or weakly (e.g. the Spirit convicts believers and guides them in the right direction).

I meant one was physical, one is not physical, and that they basically share the same mind.

Dotard Wrote:If so then when Jesus was praying or talking to God he was in essence talking to, and answering, himself? Classic symptom of a split personality disorder except instead of one person with two "minds" (personalities) you have two persons claiming to share one mind. However one of these persons goes on record as speaking to the other, asking it favors (forgive them, they know not what they do). The actions of the character of Jesus in the bible betrays your apologetic.

Jesus was limited by his physicality - so I would consider these examples to be like "thinking out loud".

It's a dirty game that no one should play though.
