Quotes by Nakhati Jon  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“In biblical inspiration, the Spirit breathes inwardly within or near the messenger, moving him to write the very words of God. The one carried along by the Spirit forms a mystery alignment between God’s Spirit and the prophet.”
Nakhati Jon, Searching Below the Surface: A Deeper Look at Covenant and Contract

“Respect comes from a three-dimensional perspective: your beliefs, my beliefs, and God’s truth. How we respond to His truth makes the greatest difference.”
Nakhati Jon

“A oneness-in-unity deity's will, much like his own relationality, seeks to relate closely in giving his communications, but an Absolute Oneness deity will maintain his lofty position allowing only a downward communication. Both communicate consistently with their covenant or contract nature.”
Nakhati Jon, Searching Below the Surface: A Deeper Look at Covenant and Contract

“Love is a common theme in the poetry of Iran...While love is highly promoted in poetry, the concept of marriage is not.”
Nakhati Jon, Survey of Shia Marriage in Iran: Based on literature, media and personal interviews

“Indwelling Inspiration is the God-breathed process in which the Spirit of God generates the very words of God through or intimately near the messenger. The inspiration process mysteriously breathes through the personality of the messenger.”
Nakhati Jon, Searching Below the Surface: A Deeper Look at Covenant and Contract

“Permanent and temporary marriages are morally equal. Khomeini gives permanent and non-permanent marriages equal status and includes no moral distinction between the two.”
Nakhati Jon, Survey of Shia Marriage in Iran: Based on literature, media and personal interviews

“In biblical inspiration, the Spirit breathes inwardly within or near the messenger, moving him to write the very words of God. The one carried along by the Spirit forms a mystery alignment between God’s Spirit and the prophet.”
Nakhati Jon, Searching Below the Surface: A Deeper Look at Covenant and Contract

“Oneness describes the joining of persons, while unity describes the bond which holds the oneness together. Even though with God, the Oneness and Unity have always been from eternity past.”
