**Purposefully corrupting the scriptures as a debating tactic demonstrates a lack of reverence for that which is holy and is unprofitable. Cease from evil.**

Why did that offend you? That is exactly how your church interprets that verse. Because I word the verse to match your church’s interpretation I’m accused of evil?

Which is worse, re-writing the scripture for debate, or re-writing the scriptures BY one’s ACTIONS to build a church doctrine?

**I showed you from the scriptures that the Jewish apostles and prophets are the foundation, with the Messiah himself, as the chief cornerstone**

Don’t forget that Paul was also a Jewish apostle.

**I did not post the scripture, though I could, where the Apostle to the Gentiles wrote the LORD gave Cephas the apostleship to the Jews.**

I don’t disagree with that. That puts Peter and Paul on equal footing. One is not greater than the other.

**This is the second time you have objected to Jesus being called “God the Son,” which I assume means you deny Jesus is God the Son.**

Neither Jesus, nor the apostles, EVER used the phrase “God the Son”. They knew that the Son came from the Father, and went to the Father, and that the Father was in him as well.

God the Father is a Spirit (John 4:24).
Jesus Christ declared that the Father was in him doing the works, giving him the words to speak (John 14:10,11).
Jesus Christ, John, and Paul, all said that God is invisible.
God the Father made his attributes visible through Christ. Which is what the Son says thoughout the book of John.

**Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: the sceptre of thy kingdom is a right sceptre. Thou lovest righteousness, and hatest wickedness: therefore God, thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows.**

God is a Spirit, omnipresent, and he is in Christ reconciling the world unto himself.

Do you confess, or deny, that Jesus the Messiah is God the Son ?
