Comment on Sister Charlotte - Abused Nun Story, Audio

Andre — Tue, 29 Jun 2010 13:24:27 GMT

Replying to some bad commentary about Sister Charlotte testimonial, I find it absolutely absurd that one can't grasp the possibility that the testimonial might be true. If you compare the findings of this case to the evidence found in the monastery of South America, you'll see how accurate Charlotte story really is.

I'm sure some will deny the photographic evidence of the Pope kissing the Koran, kneeling down to the statue of mother Mary as well as the evidence of sexual abuse scandals in the United States of it's bishops and priests.

There is only One mediator between man and God and that is Jesus Christ, not the Pope, not St Peter neither Mother Mary (Isis)or the Vatican.

Comment on Did Jesus Claim to be the Father?

The Oneness Apostolic church did not start with Parham, but with the apostles on the day of Pentecost when Peter said to be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ. Peter had the keys to the kingdom; this should tell the trinity folks something but no it doesn't..they are just blind and deaf to truth.
No one in church history is baptized in titles but the so called church daddys did come up with a three-headed god later and denied the Lord who bought them.
God's judgment on them is he allowing them to do nothing but beg for money on Trinity broadcast network where they worship three gods and beg for money all day and night.
Their judgment slumbers not.
Read about Michael Servetus and how he was murdered by Calvin and other hate filled trinitarians.

The writer of Luke also shows that the early Christians did not teach a trinity.

They believed him to be the foretold Messiah (Anointed; Christ) and believed that he was the Son of God, the King of Israel. See John 1:41, 49 .. John 3:33-36

John wrote:

"Many other signs therefore Jesus also performed in the presence of the disciples, which are not written in this book, but these have been written that YOU MAY BELIEVE that Jesus is the Christ, THE SON OF GOD, and that believing, you may have life in his name." John 20:30-31

"Therefore let all the house of Israel know for certain that GOD HAS MADE HIM both Lord and Christ --- this Jesus whom you crucified." Acts 2:36

"He will cry out to me, "Thou art my Father, my God and the rock of my salvation. I also SHALL MAKE HIM MY FIRSTBORN, the highest of the kings of the earth, My loving kindness I will keep for him forever and my covenant shall be confirmed to him. So I will establish his descendants forever and his throne as the days of heaven." Psalms 89:26-29

What is the blessing of the firstborn?

Isaac gave Jacob the blessing of a first born:

"Now may God give you the dew of heaven, and of the fatness of the earth, and an abundance of grain and new wine; May people SERVE YOU and NATIONS BOW DOWN to you: Be MASTER of your brothers, and may your mother's sons bow down to you. Cursed be those who curse you, and blessed be those who bless you."

When Esau protested this blessing to his brother, Jacob said to him:

"Behold I have made him YOUR MASTER, and all his relatives I HAVE GIVEN TO HIM AS SERVANTS.; and with grain and new wine, I have sustained him."
See this account at Genesis 27:28-29, 37

Yahweh installed his king on his holy mountain. (Mt Zion) All the nations have BEEN GIVEN to him to serve and obey him. See Psalms 2:7-12

Worship Yahweh God, and give "homage" to the Son.

God said during the transfiguration:

"This is my Son, LISTEN TO HIM."

Are we actually LISTENING to the words Jesus spoke? What message (gospel) did Jesus preach? Jesus never taught that he was God, but "the Son of God" and his disciples believed him to be the Messiah (The anointed whom God foretold in the Hebrew Scriptures. ) He taught that the Father is ONE and is ONE God. He spoke of God as "He" ... "His"..."Him" .... He never spoke of God as "they" ...."them"....."their" but always in a SINGULAR sense. He taught that the Father was God both for himself and for his followers, hence he was "not ashamed to call them his brethren". For they are all OF ONE. The Father gave life to His Son and to us.

So what did Jesus and his disciples TEACH? They did not teach a tri-une God. IF that was THEIR TEACHING, then please provide the proof. Most of the crowds believed that Yeshua was a mighty PROPHET and the Messiah (anointed) that God WAS WITH him. They never taught that Jesus was God and they had plenty of opportunity.

None of them believed that Jesus was God, but was God's Son. The angels are also sons of God.

Isn't it wise to believe in God's Word, than in the many "teachings and traditions of men"? (teachings of priests, clergy, popes, ministers, etc.

God's love and peace be with you. :-)

Hello Jeremy, :-)

To help answer your questions here are some more Scriptures:

"And the Father who sent me, He has borne witness of me. You have neither heard His voice at any time, nor seen his form. And you do not have His Word abiding in you for you do not believe Him whom He sent." John 5:37-38

Jesus said: "For if you believed Moses, you would believe me, for he wrote of me." John 5:46

Yahweh said to Moses:

"I will raise up a prophet from among their countrymen like you, and I will put MY WORDS in his mouth, and he shall speak to them all that I COMMAND HIM. And it shall come about that whoever will not listen to MY WORDS which he shall speak in My name, I myself will require it of him." Deuteronomy 18:18-19

"Then a shoot will spring from the stem of Jesse, and a branch FROM HIS ROOTS will bear fruit. And the Spirit of Yahweh will rest on him, the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of counsel and strength, the spirit of knowledge AND THE FEAR OF YAHWEH. And he will delight in the fear of Yahweh. And he will not judge by what his eyes see, nor make a decision by what his hears hear" Isaiah 11:1-3

Jesus (yeshua) said:

"I can DO NOTHING ON MY OWN INITIATIVE, AS I HEAR, I JUDGE; and my judgment is just because I do not seek my own will, but the will of Him who sent me." John 5:30

"As the Living Father sent me, and I live BECAUSE OF THE FATHER, so he who eats me, he also shall live because of me." John 6:57

"Jesus therefore said: "When you lift up the Son of Man, then you will know that I am he, and I do nothing on my own initiative, but I speak these things as the Father taught me. And He who sent me is with me. He has not left me alone, for I always do the things that are pleasing to Him." John 8:28-29

"Do you say of him whom the Father SANCTIFIED and sent into the world , 'You are blaspheming because I said I am God's Son? If I do not do the works of my Father, do not believe me. But if I do them, though you don't believe me, BELIEVE THE WORKS that you may know and understand that the Father is IN me, and I in the Father." John 10:36-38

"And the Holy Spirit descended UPON him in bodily form like a dove, and a voice came out of heaven, "Thou art my beloved Son, in Thee I am well-pleased." Luke 3:22

"And the book of the prophet Isaiah was handed to him, and he opened the book and found the place where it was written; "The Spirit of the LORD is upon me, because HE ANOINTED ME to preach the gospel "............." See Luke 4:18

"For just as the Father has life in Himself, even so HE GAVE to the Son also to have life in himself; and HE GAVE him authority to execute judgment, because he is the Son of Man." John 5:26

If Jesus was God, he would have already had this authority so it wouldn't have to be GIVEN to him. Also, if Jesus was God, LIFE wouldn't have to be GIVEN to him. Nor would it be necessary for the Father, to GIVE him the authority to execute judgment when he returns.

Hello there. So much of what you wrote, I agree with. Thanks for your kind words concerning my post.

I think that these Scriptures explain it very well, too:

"For God who said, "Light shall shine out of darkness", is the One who has shone in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ." 2 Corinthians 4:6

Jesus said:

"And do not be called leaders; for one is your Leader, that is Christ." Matt. 23:10

Yahweh said:

"And their leader shall be one of them, and their ruler shall come forth from their midst; and I will bring him hear, and he shall approach Me, for who would dare to risk his life to approach Me? Declares the LORD." (Yahweh) Jeremiah 30:21

"For Christ did not enter a holy place made with hands, a mere copy of the true one, but into heaven itself now to appear in the presence of God for us. Heb. 9:24

"This hope we have as an anchor of the soul, a hope both sure and steadfast and one which enters WITHIN THE VEIL, WHERE JESUS ENTERED as a forerunner for us having BECOME a High Priest forever, according to the order of Melchizedek. for this Melchizedek, king of Salem, priest of the Most High God, "......." See Hebrews 6:19-20, and 7:1

"But he on the other hand, because he abides forever, holds his priesthood permanently. Hence also, he is able to save forever, those who draw near to God THROUGH him, since he always lives to make intercession for them." Heb. 7:25

We are fellow HEIRS WITH CHRIST:

"and if children, heirs also, heirs of God and FELLOW HEIRS WITH CHRIST, if indeed we suffer with him in order that we may also be glorified WITH HIM." Romans 8:17

"Therefore having overlooked the times of ignorance, God is now declaring to men that all everywhere should repent, because He has fixed a day in which HE WILL JUDGE the world in righteousness THROUGH A MAN whom He HAS APPOINTED, having furnished proof to all men by raising him from the dead." Acts 17:30-31

"You know Jesus of Nazareth, how GOD ANOINTED HIM with the Holy Spirit and with power, and how he went about doing good and healing all who were oppressed by the devil for God was WITH HIM." Acts 10:38

"God raised him on the third day AND GRANTED that he should become visible." Acts 10:40

"And he ordered us to preach to the people, and solemnly to testify that this is the one who has BEEN APPOINTED BY GOD as judge of the living and the dead." Acts 10:42

"For every high priest taken from among men is ANOINTED on behalf of men in things pertaining to God, in order to offer both gifts and sacrifices for sins."....." and no one takes the honor to himself but RECEIVES IT when he is CALLED BY GOD, even as Aaron was. SO ALSO CHRIST did not glorify himself so as to become a high priest, but He who said to him: "Thou art my Son, TODAY I HAVE BEGOTTEN THEE; just as He says in another place; "Thou art a priest forever, according to the order of Melchizedek." Hebrews 5:1-6

See also Heb. 5:8

Bravo Sheila Rae! Bravo Dolly Anderson! I agree with you both. Seems we are one as they are one and we aren't a trinity either!

God is a spirit
JN 4:24 God [is] a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship [him] in spirit and in truth.

Jesus was flesh and not a spirit
LK 24:39 Behold my hands and my feet, that it is I myself: handle me, and see; for ***a spirit hath not flesh*** and bones, as ye see me have.

God is like air so that we can be in air and air can be in us.
God can enter us and be manifest ***in*** our flesh as God was manifest in the flesh of Jesus. MT 10:20 For it is not ye that speak, but the Spirit of your Father which speaketh ***in*** you.

Jesus was the temple and God filled him in the same way that God had filled the tent in the wilderness.
MT 23:21 And whoso shall swear by the temple, sweareth by it, and by him that dwelleth therein.
JN 2:21 But he spake of the temple of his body.
MAL 3:1 Behold, I will send my messenger, and he shall prepare the way before me: and the Lord, whom ye seek, shall suddenly ****come to his temple, even the messenger of the covenant***, whom ye delight in: behold, he shall come, saith the LORD of hosts.
The messenger of the covenant is God's temple. Jesus is that temple and messenger of the new covenant

JN 3:34 For he whom God hath sent speaketh the words of God: for God giveth not the Spirit by measure [unto him].

Jesus was sent by God. Jesus is not God.
Nobody has seen God, but many people saw Jesus.
JN 1:18 ***No man hath seen God at any time;*** the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, he hath declared [him].

We see God in the words and works of Jesus ... these are dual witnesses (which answers the question of Charles how can God give dual witness)
JN 14:10 Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? ***the words*** that I speak unto you I speak not of myself: but the Father that dwelleth in me, he doeth ***the works.***

Salvation is of the Jews and not of trinitarians or those who think a man is God
NUM 23:19 God [is] not a man, that he should lie; neither the son of man, that he should repent: hath he said, and shall he not do [it]? or hath he spoken, and shall he not make it good?
1SAM 15:29 And also the Strength of Israel will not lie nor repent: for he [is] not a man, that he should repent.

The One True God is indeed the Spirit God of Israel Who sent Jesus
JN 17:3 And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.

Embrace YHWH, the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, and also the God and Father of Jesus. YHWH can be our God and Father too
JN 20:17 Jesus saith unto her, Touch me not; for I am not yet ascended to my Father: but go to my brethren, and say unto them, I ascend unto my Father, and your Father; and [to] my God, and your God.
