Do you honestly believe that the third person of the Holy Trinity is a dove?
Looks like a dove. That's what the Bible says.
ScottRP writes:
The Holy Spirit has no reason to lower Himself to being a dove.
He has no reason to lower himself to being an orb either.
ScottRP writes:
Also, if the Holy Spirit appeared as a dove, He would be seen masquerading as a lying deceiving devil.
The Bible says that the Holy Spirit appeared in the form of a dove. What part of that do you not understand?

We've been through this. Luke clarified:
quote:
Luke 3:21-22 When all the people were being baptized, Jesus was baptized too. And as he was praying, heaven was opened and the Holy Spirit descended on him in bodily form like a dove. And a voice came from heaven: You are my Son, whom I love; with you I am well pleased.
"Like a dove" means "in bodily form like a dove". The Holy Spirit looked like a dove. The only one who's misinterpreting it is you.

All the photographs and the video I have shown you are of genuine spirits. You can disagree. But you cannot say they are not when you do not know.

That is not what the bible says. Descending like a dove. Not "looks like a dove".

He is not lowering Himself. The orb is omnipresent, omniscient, and omnipotent. He is an absolute perfect spirit. He is God the third person of the Holy Trinity.

You misinterpret scripture.

All the photographs and the video I have shown you are of genuine spirits.
So you claim... as you claimed that Canada officialy recognized that aliens exist. Why should we believe you? Ah yes... because you know. Again, an baseless claim.

Here is a photograph of the Holy Spirit descending like a dove out of heaven.
Here is a photograph of the Holy Spirit motionless and in bodily form.
Here is a painting of what the Holy Spirit would look like alighting and remaining upon Jesus in bodily form.
John 1:32. John testified saying, "I have seen the Spirit descending as a dove out of heaven, and He remained upon Him."
Mathew 3:16. When He had been baptized, Jesus came up immediately from the water, and behold, the heavens were opened to Him, and He saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove and alighting upon Him.
Luke 3:22. And the Holy Spirit descended in bodily form like a dove upon Him, and a voice came out of heaven which said, "You are My beloved Son; in You I am well pleased."

I never made such a claim. I merely posted a video and it's title.

Yours were probably stealing someone else's land and hunting witches.
I'd like to assure you that doctors also no longer apply leeches or bleed you for every common malady. They've moved further into the future than you have.
The caring physicians in those days had people like you believing in their lies and practices. And the caring physicians today still have people like you believing in their lies and practices.

Top Ten Reasons

The Top Ten Reasons You're A Fool:
Well, old son, the caring physicians of today have provided me with a little purple pill--levothyroxine--without which I would slow down until I died. It would take a few miserable months.
They provided me with an implanted neurostimulator that blocks untreatable spinal nerve pain, so I can sit and communicate with you (oh joy) rather than writhing in pain or vegetating on opiate painkillers.
They repaired the cervical spine structural damage that made my left arm and leg work only intermittently and weakly, using engineered laminate bone wafers and titanium scaffolding.
They rebuilt my left knee so that I can walk.
They repaired the ripped Achilles tendon I won in the Army, and saved my life when gangrene set in under the cast.
They expertly treated the burns I received over 70% of my body so well that I don't have to feel like a freak when I take off my shirt.
They cured with IV antibiotics the peritonitis that drove my temp to 106 and threw me into convulsions.
They excised the precancerous growths from my colon so that I didn't die at 60 from colon cancer like my grandfather.
They removed my grandmother's cataracts and gave her the gift of sight for the last 20 of her 107 years.
They saved my brother's life 20 years ago with sophisticated surgery and radiation when he developed Agent Orange-associated esophageal cancer. We've only grown close in the last ten years or so; that may be the most precious gift of all.
You, sir, are an intellectual moron and a moral idiot. I most fervently hope you do not control anyone else's access to care, else you'll be a murderer, too. Now run along and play with your little balls.

"If you can keep your head while those around you are losing theirs, you can collect a lot of heads."
