Dec 26, 2023 at 19:19 | comment | added | pygosceles | @User14 As I said, it is impossible to falsify whether a subdenomination of a given denomination exists having a differing viewpoint, therefore a decision to close on grounds that the question is opinion-based for soliciting from multiple denominations must itself ironically be an opinion-based decision. | |
Dec 26, 2023 at 18:55 | comment | added | Kristopher | @pygosceles every new user here goes through the same issues. I certainly did. But the rules of the site are in place for a reason and if you want to participate it will be within those set of rules. You can ask for an overview of Christian beliefs on a topic but this requires an answer that covers multiple denominations. Most folks here prefer to answer from the one perspective they are most familiar with, Currently there are 4 close votes on your q. One more and it will be closed. | |
Dec 26, 2023 at 18:37 | comment | added | Kristopher | @Mr.Bond Jehovah's Witnesses believe that the Archangel Michael, "the Word" of John 1:1, and wisdom personified in Proverbs 8 refer to Jesus in his pre-human existence and that he resumed these identities after his ascension to heaven following his death and resurrection. | |
Dec 26, 2023 at 18:35 | comment | added | Kristopher | @pygosceles. The question invites all denominational pov? That is precisely why it is going to be closed. I suggest you edit to specify one branch of Christianity then ask a separate question for various other denominations | |
Dec 26, 2023 at 18:31 | comment | added | Kristopher | @Mr.Bond you well know that russel later changed his understanding about Michael it is disingenuous to keep bringing the old picture of the old teaching from russel up. And the worship of Jesus was clarified long ago too. Yiu are stuck in some old obsolete teachings. | |
Dec 26, 2023 at 18:25 | comment | added | Mr. Bond | @User 14. You said God created His only begotten son untold eons before that of John 1:1. Then through this son created all the myriad of angels in heaven. Since your a JW, and teach Jesus is also Michael the arc angel explain how he can be two separate persons at the same time? Also, the founder of the JW religion Charles Taze Russell taught that Jesus is not Michael the arc angel and that Jesus should be worshipped by Michael. i.imgur.com/y6dOdXe.jpg Moreover, since you believe at John 1:1 Jesus is "a god" how can an "a god" create anything since God created all alone at Isaiah 44:24 | |
Dec 26, 2023 at 17:59 | comment | added | Kristopher | @pygosceles. Your question is going to be closed as opinion based since it does not specify a particular denominational pov. My pov is JW. I could be persuaded to give a longer supported answer to a question scoped at JW teaching. | |
Dec 26, 2023 at 17:42 | comment | added | pygosceles | I like this answer because it admits that the Bible is told from a particular frame of reference, namely the creation of this Earth. It would be a more interesting answer with the inclusion of some Bible references (for example, the claim that God created His Only Begotten Son long before the Creation of this Earth), and accompanying definitions of terms as needed to make the conclusions generally satisfying. | |
