Love is the way the truth the way and the life because Jesus is God and God is love.It's simple comprehension. God is Light according to my belief, you have a perverted view of what true love is and probably think Hitler made his own way to heaven Romans 9:13 - "As it is written, Jacob have I loved, but Esau have I hated." Psalm 5:5 - "The foolish shall not stand in thy sight: thou hatest all workers of iniquity." 8 Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love. The greek word is agape not a perverted form of love where Hitler is in heaven or a free-love hippie orgy. If you love sin you wont make it. God's love is pure 1Jn 1:5 This then is the message which we have heard of him, and declare unto you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all. Evil to him who perceives evil. Only the flesh can know evil. Therefore you're living in the flesh to condemn your brother in your heart. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward Jesus was supposed to have been 33 1/3 years old when he died and there are three points on the cross as well as many other things you could see that relate to a third thing or item that we are overlooking in our lives that Jesus was privy to. I would call the pyramids in one of those but it has 4 sides to it,but if you look at it from just one side,it appears to have 3 points to it. what are we missing? Can I asked where you read about Jesus being 33 1/3 years old? [link to en.wikipedia.org] add the time between christmas ans easter.... i actually read it somewhere a long time ago and am looking for it,but i believe the jewish religion also talks of it. |

Frater User ID: 28363777 United States 01/06/2013 02:55 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | When Jesus Died on the cross and took on the sins of mankind did God the Father have to turn away and not look at his son because he is to HOLY to look upon sin, but yet Jesus could not only look upon sin but also take on all sin of mankind and it be nailed to the cross with him ? Quoting: Anonymous Coward 24056251 And then again the question arises, if Jesus is God or Co equal to God The Father, Why does the bible tell us that no man knows the day nor the hour of his return not even the SON but only God The FATHER if Jesus is God or equal to his Father? BTW Im not a JW or claim any "religion" Just a Followr of the Gospel is all Now why are you opening pandoras box again? :) OK so here's my opinion. Jesus is the Son of God and so are all of us, Sons and Daughters of God. All of us are of God, all things flow from God and their is nothing else but God. So in a sense Jesus is God or a part of God and so are we! Thats the part TPTB don't wan't us to Get, the oneness, the unity, they want us seperate from our divine nature. They don't want spiritually wide awake people walking around changing reality on them! But that's just what is happening, everyone is waking up. Frater LVX! |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 24843780 United States 01/06/2013 02:56 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Because the "bible" you read is the version that was altered by Constantine. Go to www.reluctant-messenger.com to read unaltered original documents from all the major religions. Thousands and thousands of pages for research. "Jesus" wasn't his real name. Mary (his mother) became a virgin 1600 years later when the Catholic church wanted virgins to marry. (Then they taught the little girls that if you are a virgin, then you may be the one chosen for the second birth of Jesus. l was Catholic and was taught this.) Joseph was also visited by an "angel" and told to have sex with Mary before they were married. The original "Christians" were known as the "Yahoos", and were 100% against "organized religion". Interesting when you find out what was actually written. |

Christ was given control over everything under creation. To answer your question: Christ can know the answer if he wishes but if he knew then he would tell us. He says this several times in the bible. The Father does not want the enemy to know when this will happen so he keeps all this information to Himself. I hope this helps.
