Re: Apostolic But Not Believing Jesus is The Fathe

Aquila, please use your restrictive personal grammatical terms with this example, and tell us the following presents two persons:

Luk 12:19 KJV And I will say to my soul, Soul, thou hast much goods laid up for many years; take thine ease, eat, drink, and be merry.

"THOU" is a second person pronoun. So, in this case is the soul a second person to the person who possess that soul, which is his own soul?

You can't compare metaphoric reference to interpersonal relationship and/or conversation.

Oh, so we cannot take the word for what it says? (Your argument against what i wrote)

So again, it is an illusion.

It's an example of how the Word uses these pictures. I claim God does that with His single person, too. But again, as far away as an image is from us, the genuine humanity is from God. Picture genuine humanity in all we know it to be, being THAT MUCH INFERIOR to God's deity as our mirror image is to us! Then you can realize what I mean by taking off human limitations from God's abilities.

Seems Aquila has a double standard

Let it be understood that Apostolic Friends Forum is an Apostolic Forum.
Apostolic is defined on AFF as:


  1. There is One God. This one God reveals Himself distinctly as Father, Son and Holy Ghost.
  2. The Son is God himself in a human form or "God manifested in the flesh" (1Tim 3:16)
  3. Every sinner must repent of their sins.
  4. That Jesus name baptism is the only biblical mode of water baptism.
  5. That the Holy Ghost is for today and is received by faith with the initial evidence of speaking in tongues.
  6. The saint will go on to strive to live a holy life, pleasing to God.

Yes. He says our thoughts make the word an illusion and yet he says that's what it is when we give him the example of the man speaking to his own soul.
