John 10:25-29. Comment

When the leader of the sheep goes over a cliff, the entire herd goes with it.

So my answer to you is, I stand alone.

That is if the leader goes over a cliff. When the evidence is completely against your position, you do stand alone with your unsupported opinions. But that is nothing to be pleased about because that is pride. That is a most dangerous position to be in.

We see the contradiction that Yahshua is equal to God in our bibles. So why is that? Here is the reason:
So why is there scriptures that make Yahshua equal to Yahwah?

Pope is God on Earth

April 30, 1922, Pope Pius XI said, “You know that I am the Holy Father, the representative of God on Earth, the Vicar of Christ, which means that I am god on Earth.” Revelation Four Views, A Parallel Commentary. pg 288

Hello again CherubRam, it's too bad that the Scriptures weren't written and translated long before April 30, 2022 AD so that Pope Pius XI couldn't have forced his secret Trinitarian understanding into them

You know, what we really need is a Schism and a Reformation so that everything the Catholic Church teaches can finally be brought under public scrutiny. Who am I kidd'n, that'll never happen, especially now (since Pope Pius XI has revealed to one and all who he actually is)

I meant to add this passage to an earlier post but failed to do so, so I will do so now. I suppose that I should also point out that this is but one of many passages in the Bible that points to the Lord Jesus Christ as the Source of life for us, physical, spiritual and/or eternal.

​

1 John 5​

11 The witness is this, that God has given us eternal life, and ~this life~ is in His Son. ​

12 He who has the Son has the life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have the life. ​

In addition, I would add:

Joh 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
Joh 1:2 He was in the beginning with God.
Joh 1:3 All things were made through him, and without him was not any thing made that was made.
Joh 1:4 In him was life, and the life was the light of men.
...
Joh 1:9 The true light, which gives light to everyone, was coming into the world.
Joh 1:10 He was in the world, and the world was made through him, yet the world did not know him. (ESV)

It's no accident that John follows verses 1-3 with "In him was life," because he is the one through whom everything, including humans, were created. So, it is no surprise that John then repeats that very same idea in 1 John 5:11, or that Luke records Peter saying it in Acts:

Act 3:15 and you killed the Author of life, whom God raised from the dead. To this we are witnesses. (ESV)
