That's what the personal pronoun "hu" is for in the Greek. The personal pronoun "hu" (the) is significant because it denotes one specific and distinct from all others. THE antichrist, or THE man of sin is a specific man who will sit in the temple of God and declare himself to be God. Mirroring Christ, or as a pseudo Christ. Any other folks or numerous folks throughout history were operating under the influence of the " spirit of" antichrist.

I dont think jesus should be raised above all other humans, as having a special relationship with god...... but......
all the information we have as humans,, technology and methods, laws, rules, formulas, philosophies, psychologies,,, have been crafted by individual men, alone or with others,, mostly over time it is via cooperation with others,, bouncing and piggy backing off prior or contemporary ideas and information..... If jesus attempted to unite every single human in the world by the bound of existence in the universe,,, if jesus is successful in doing so,, or an individual is successful in doing so,, that would be profound and make history/change the course of history... I think its an archetypal longing to create an orderly heaven on earth,,, all the positive things that come along with the abolishment of negative conflict between humans,,,

I wasn't talking about any texts from John. In fact, I can teach Christ from tue OT as well as a Trinue God from the OT. Christians were being murdered for worshipping Christ as the Son of God for hundreds of years before Constantine was born.

Ok, now you are just talking about your belief systems. It's sad how some people can not think outside of the bible.

When you find one that's nearly as accurate as the Bible let me know...
Btw, I spent the first 25 years of my life thinking outside of the Bible,.. "been there, done that" as they say.

also thinking jesus has a more special relationship with god then the average person is deterimental,,,,, one is born on earth and thinks they do not intrinsiclly belong to themselves and their body,, that another man who lived long ago has special privileges in this realm.,, forcing followers to have a vicarious 3rd wheel relationship with god and themselves via jesus...... also thinking that jesus was supernatural,,, and that he might return and save the day........ when really,,, people who truly believe the ideals of jesus and of goodness, should be peacefully explaining and working out their ideas with others, in a not so door to door , turn offish, magical way,, but with undeniable philosophy and proof in action, life, and relationship with others.... there are things in this world that if everyone was cool with everyone else, working together for the common good and goal, there are things that would have no need in existing,, there would be fewer problems needing solving,,, and life could be peaceful and beautiful for all new souls entering this world, all a part of the human family.....
if you and I were leaders of a tribe in a distant land away from any civilization,,, and there were a hundred members in our village,,,, would we not want to create the most peace and unity between us,,, would we not want to view ourselves as a family, and look after one another with love and care.... i know the modern world is very different,,, but we still depend on the other for their work, and the other for our children.

Stick to the subject NuT. Everytime you post something look at the title of the tread and make sure it contains generally the theme.
Your freedom and turning the theme into you this and you that isn't part of the subject.

So following a book embedded with more than 613 rules, has caused you to be MORE free?

Well there are still rules in the bible and that is restricting you, so there is no way that you are MORE free with the bible than without it.edit on 8-6-2012 by arpgme because: (no reason given)

That was in response to the post above it that was directed at me specifically. Most folks want to make things about me directly for some reason. Look around, i get thrust on the witness stand regularly. Example, go back to page one, you'll notice that you did this yourself in my response to the op about the Babylonian trinity model. You replied then at the end of your response you directed things at me personally. Why do you folks always turn ME into the subject of threads? I'm just an average chap, seriously..

Who is taking any opportunity to depart from it? I pointed out you redirecting the topic towards myself on page one. You were the first person in this thread to do so. Don't accuse me for something you did dude. Now, lets discuss this topic like was happening on page ONE.
