    The Trinity - What on Earth is it?

    I asked ChatGPT 3.5 to write a short paper for me about what it means if the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit are three parts of God like the mind, the body and the spirit or like the body, the spirit and the soul, of a person:

    A friendly debate regarding the merits of Christianity v that of Judaism in regards to salvation. (Anthony H Miller and Harel13).

    My purpose is not to create contention between my Christian brothers regarding certain doctrinal issues. Paul teaches that we should build up one another. I read 3rd Angel's post of Nov 19, 2022 and I am hoping he will follow what I am about to say regarding that subject. But first I feel it is...

    Did Jesus Christ Actually Exist?

    It might be helpful for me to explain my own reasons for thinking that the gospels mostly contain lessons that were taught by a real person who taught in and between Galilee and Judea near the end of the Second Temple period. It's partly from many years of study and practice trying to learn to...

    Did Jesus Christ Actually Exist?

    i would argue that in fact most historians have no problem with the historicity of Christ. I think that we are more than adequately able to attest to the fact that Christ 100% really existed at exactly the time the bible says He did and that he was crucified on the cross. The point of...

    Did Jesus Christ Actually Exist?

    "Critical scholars have developed a number of criteria to evaluate the probability, or historical authenticity, of an attested event or saying represented in the gospels. These criteria are the criterion of dissimilarity; the criterion of embarrassment; the criterion of multiple attestation; the...

    Jesus Failed Right?

    He doesn't look to me like a good example to follow, but not for those reasons. It's because of his attitude and behavior in the gospel stories.

    Jesus Failed Right?

    His closest disciples, according to the synoptic gospels, were totally discombobulated by his arrest and execution. It seems that isn’t what they were expecting. It seems also that at some point, they or someone else decided to put a different spin on it, and by the time it was all written down...

    Jesus Failed Right?

    Given that Paul was inspired by Jesus, Jesus is responsible for Paul's effort in starting the Christian movement. In any case, someone who has over one billion followers today, can hardly be called a failure.

    Jesus Failed Right?

    Jesus failed his second coming prophecy too. The NT prophets were saying then that, "he is coming back REALLY soon, guys!" 2,000 years time is an extremely long time to still be waiting for the green light. It's a failed prophecy.

    Jesus Failed Right?

    Jesus's mission was to fulfill the Father's promise to make provision for man's redemption from sin and death. Jesus did that. He did not fail.

    Jesus Failed Right?

    Jesus didn't try to convert Jews. He was trying to prepare them for the coming Kingdom. Yes, he failed as a Jewish Messiah to fulfill the prophecies. No peace on earth... Paul didn't go by himself. He believed he was sent by Jesus... Yes, Christians believe that all this was prophesied and...

    Jesus Failed Right?

    We could say Jesus failed in some things .. succeeded in others .. but yes .. in many of the main areas he failed ... and in fact his very last words are an expression of Failure "My God .. My God .. why have you forsaken me" Even his God has failed him. His mission .. to have...

    Jesus Failed Right?

    Apostles. Jesus' disciples have been countless. And Jesus knew it would happen. He called it. As for the betrayel. That one had to happen. Hows this a failure? And? Public executions used to be a form of entertainment. That treatment was very normal. Not all of them, and initially it was...

    People failed Jesus but his Gospel will eventually transform future generations that inherit this earth.

    Jesus Failed Right?

    Gaslighting. As if people are told to be poor teachers and preachers and to fail. Its like saying "Tell my why I should become a Christian," because you've mixed things up so bad that the only possible thing is to explain Christianity from scratch. Its against the rules for people to do so...

    Jesus Failed Right?

    I think it is important to note why Jesus came into this world. It was not to garner followers during his lifetime. The mission that God gave Jesus to was to reveal God to humanity. That mission was accomplished when the New Testament was written and canonized. Another job Jesus had to do...
