here is a large collection of verses which prove the deity of christ:.
isaiah 6-7 6. for unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called wonderful, counseller, the mighty god, the everlasting father, the prince of peace.
7. of the increase of his government and peace there shall be no end, upon the throne of david, and upon his kingdom, to order it, and to establish it with judgment and with justice from henceforth even for ever.
If you can believe the whole Bible, what makes you think any of it is right? The Bible describes people like you who have become a "law on themselves". You pick and choose what you want to believe.
What parts were authorized as being inspired? Didn't the Catholic Church decide this? Were they inspired to decide that?

Many passages of the Bible I and some others referred to state clearly and undeniably that Jesus is God. Jesus says "he that hath seen me hath seen the Father." (John 14:9)
I see it now! Jesus is obviously the Father!

ibm has a contract w the govt to build computers that are about equal to the computing power of the human brain.
with the right software, they say, these computers could mimic humans.

Hmmmm... I've thought of this before and like all technology can see good and bad in it. But it will happen. We won't compete with computers though, we will integrate with them. Here goes:
We are already replacing biological parts with mechanical or electronic ones. Artificial hearts, knees, ears, and even eyes soon, etc. The last one to go will probably be the brain. It's frightening and intriguing at the same time -- your mind is what defines you as a person.
First there will be interfaces into the brain -- they already have a monkey that could control a device through electrodes in it's brain. Imagine playing games or unlocking your door with a thought. Reverse that, and make information available to the brain. Let's say you need all the formulas for a physics test tomorrow. Viola! You have them in a chip. With some sort of neural network you can eventually enhance your own memory and brain power. Basic education will be a thing of the past when you already know everything.
With the ability to transfer consciousness, we will be at threshold of virtual immortality.

The claw marks tho may take some time to heal.
So will the detached cat limbs.
Erm, what does it mean when your mother gives you lots of enemas?
Francois, it means you have one sick momma.
Xena, I want to have a bad day with you...

I like to crack my friends up with a near perfect Hank Hill imitation.
I was about 1 when my mom and dad started studying. I never baptized! Around 23, began my descent outward thanks to discussion boards and then slowly exited over the next 2 years.
LucidSky * wishing for my teen years back *
i know there must be a way that they explain these scriptures.
genesis 35:18 and the result was that as her soul was going out (because she died) she called his name benoni.
1 kings 17:21 and he proceeded to stretch himself upon the child three times and call to jehovah and say" "o jehovah my god, please cause the soul of this child to come back within him.".
Understanding the soul as an immortal entity allows quite a few of those instances to be reconciled with a single meaning of the word, which seems to be more logical to me.
Except the ones where it says the soul dies...
A single word could have multiple meanings especially when being translated, right? The word 'spirit' seems to mean wind, ethereal beings, inner courage, etc. They have a common tie to some invisible power. To me, the meanings of soul has ties to a single living and conscious being. It is only a body after death. So in general I would say, spirit + body = soul.
Jim (if you are the real Jim Penton) - I enjoyed your book. It was one of the first I read as I left the org. If only the Society would adopt it instead of the Proclaimers book.
