Granted, often more heat than light is the result of these debates.
But there have been enough emails from those who do not want to "enter
the fray" yet who have had this or that explained to them via the
"fray", that I feel some justification for continuing.

Exactly.

But I think you are using the word "debate" too formally. He did
certainly challenge them and prove them wrong, even using their own
traps to trap themselves. Christ is the Expression, the Exegete of
God. There is no revelation of God except Christ. He is the "exact
representation." Again, as I have pointed out to you before, only the
infinite can exactly represent the infinite.

"And two shall become one." I can start a sentence and my wife can end
it. What of that "conglomeration"?

THIS, Sarah, is the great dilemma. Don't you understand just what
"unity in the midst of the diversity" signifies? You just got done
quoting Rom 1:20, yet you refuse to allow for its expression of
reality. For instance, as I have often pointed out to you, the cosmos
is a continuum of space, mass & time. You cannot separate any one of
those aspects from the other, that is, mass cannot exist without there
being space for it to dimensionalize itself. Nor can it exist outside
of time! These are each correlated and co-dependent. Will you not at
least admit this point?

And again, as I have repeatedly illustrated for you, space, mass and
time themselves extend this relationship. Space is X-Y-Z coordinates.
Time is past, present and future. Mass is liquid, solid and gas.

So, if you are willing to quote a passage of Scripture, are you then
willing to accept the truth to which it is speaking. Creation reveals
the NATURE of
