I know who is God.
He is my Father.
That does not take any Wisdom.
Nor faith.
Nor studying.
Nor grace.
Nor knowledge.
It takes me being the offspring of His seed.
Which I am.

You have the freedom to think as you wish, but that don't make it right.
If you had said His Spirit lives in your spirit then that may be true.
However for you to say His Spirit is your spirit only reveals you are deceived like poster Gods Truth.

If God's Spirit was in my Spirit,
it would consume my spirit for God is a consuming fire.
Therefore I have proved your statement is greatly flawed.
When you are born of God you have His Spirit.
That is the only why He can be the Father.
For God is a Spirit.
Now you know you are not born of God.
Heb 12:18 For ye are not come unto the mount that might be touched, and that burned with fire, nor unto blackness, and darkness, and tempest,
Heb 12:19 And the sound of a trumpet, and the voice of words; which voice they that heard intreated that the word should not be spoken to them any more:
Heb 12:20 (For they could not endure that which was commanded, And if so much as a beast touch the mountain, it shall be stoned, or thrust through with a dart:
Heb 12:21 And so terrible was the sight, that Moses said, I exceedingly fear and quake
Heb 12:22 But ye are come unto mount Sion, and unto the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to an innumerable company of angels,
Heb 12:23 To the general assembly and church of the firstborn, which are written in heaven, and to God the Judge of all, and to the spirits of just men made perfect,
Heb 12:24 And to Jesus the mediator of the new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling, that speaketh better things than that of Abel.
Heb 12:25 See that ye refuse not him that speaketh. For if they escaped not who refused him that spake on earth, much more shall not we escape, if we turn away from him that speaketh from heaven:
You did not say that.
Now I know you tell lies.

And when we are faithful we receive God's grace because, without faith it is impossible to please Him.
Without faith it is mercy we receive. Faith is a learning process to make one to be as Jesus through knowing the written word unto obedience as He performed it. In this is one in possession by faith of the enablement for hearing and living by the Living Word. In this I am assuming the new birth. This can only be made possible when the written word and the Living Word of God and the one indwelt by both are made effective..Jesus well demonstrated that union when in the wilderness. Luke 4:1-143 KJV.

Jamie, an image is visible. Moses saw the image of the uncreated "Word of God", Who was God, in Ex. 33:20-23 KJV; John 1:1,14 KJV. He was the pre-incarnate Jesus, the Word of God before 'entering a sinless human body prepared for Him' Who would be called Jesus Who would gain the victory to become: ". . . . . The mighty God, The everlasting Father,. . . .", manifested in Glorfied human flesh.
Heb 10:5 KJV; Isaiah 9:6 (KJV)
[This was the same image Peter, James, and John saw on the Mt Transfiguration]

The nature of the Most High was imprinted on Jesus so he is the exact representation of God's nature. This means if we want to know God all we need to do is look at Jesus' character defining who and what God is. Jesus' character in us will make us like him.

Indeed, it was "imprinted" on Him by His sonship in the Father and He was given the responsibilty to make sure it would forever be "imprinted" on Him that He might be our example for attaining the same "imprint".
And we each entered the world in a sinless body prepared for us.
Yes. :thumb:

Well, not really because too many people would accuse God of evil by the actions of those in whom there was evil demonstrated. Being born again is the cure which being naturally born into existence cannot perform.
All are born innocent purposed by God to be made holy. In this, both Adam and Jesus were of the same substance. Though one was born, both came directly from the hand of God. Being the first male in both instances, it could be said that both were holy unto God and yet a supremely higher dimension of holiness, set in Himself, was to be entered into by the process of obedience.

Hey, that's pretty good double talk, but newborns are sinless because they have not committed any sin.
