You may believe that my view is incorrect, but I can demonstrate that it is correct. Knowledge trumps mere belief. Why are creationists all so afraid to learn? Your fear tells us that you know that you are probably wrong no matter how brave a face that you try to put on it.
As I have said...
You are free to your view, though I think it’s incorrect.
I don’t consider the Bible vague about being God’s Word(s). And it is impossible for God to lie.
...Paul, a bondservant of God and an apostle of Jesus Christ, according to the faith of God’s elect and the acknowledgment of the truth...
Many parts of the bible indicate that only God is God, and there is no other. They also say that Jesus is the son of God and is called Lord (not God). Jesus also talks to God (clearly not talking to himself). Why would God allow anyone to nail him to a cross and suffer?
The Trinity doctrine, or any such concept, didn't exist when the NT was written.
Instead Paul, and each of the Jesuses of Mark, Matthew, Luke and John, expressly deny that they're God and never once claim to be God.
The Trinity doctrine is invented and adopted in the 4th century CE in response...
I'm not quite sure what your effort is here. It is almost like you try to set up your statements that just fits your position and then tear down your own statements.
Have you considered just taking the scriptures for what it says? He came as a man and not as God?
Hello! Thank you for your question. Actually you can see the trinity mentioned together in the New Testament:
"The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Ghost, be with you all. Amen." - 2 Corinthians 13:14
"Go ye therefore, and teach all nations...
Why the early church did that is probably so we would know whom was being spoken of and to distinguish roles.
It is true that the Father is the one true God but it is also true that the Son is in the Father and the Father is in the Son and the Holy Spirit is in the Father and Son.
In my...
The role of the Holy Spirit is to bring a believer into the fold, into Christ. Believers form a fellowship in the Holy Spirit and they look to the head of the body, Jesus Christ. He, in turn, does the will of the Father, making the three one in Spirit.
Ephesians 4:6 refers to this relationship...
Hello Soapy.
There is also the teaching from Jesus Christ the Son of God that a man can be forgiven anything but blasphemy of the Holy Spirit. It was not taught by the Apostles about a triune God it was a teaching adopted by the later Church. The OT was clear that there is only one God. In...
You can read all about the Trinity for yourself, in countless places. I do not believe you have any interest in learning anything.
So why should anyone bother to respond?
The Trinity is an attempt to explain what the Bible wants to tell us. Whoever reads the Bible through the Spirit of God will come to the conclusion that the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit are God. And through this knowledge, the concept of Trinity came into being. I am sure that the...
“Paul, Silas and Timothy, To the church of the Thessalonians in God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ:” (2 Thes 1:1)
“Grace and peace to you from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.” (2 Thes 1:2)
In 1., the apostle addresses the Father as ‘God’ and addresses Jesus Christ as ‘Lord’...
What you said here shows you should not be in a debate session.
There is no point of concordance in what you are saying and it is purely designed for disruptive argument that has no place in scriptural exchanges.
There is no substance of scriptural truth in all you are quoting as regards...
So, when God's Spirit rested upon Jesus, was it 98% God, 75% God, or maybe something less, say 25% God that rested upon Jesus? As you say, it couldn't have been 100% God, because then Jesus would have been 'good'. [See Luke 18:19] 'And Jesus said unto him, Why callest thou me good? none is good...

1. One man like Marcion who's New Testament was almost all "Paul", the one who's main teacher, prophet, the man behind the scene was "Paul", didnt know about 1st Timothy (Among others), he did not have it in the canon, he had no clue.
Tell me. How could one man who never...
I don't know how that establishes anything. Did he say Paul didn't write the letters?
I disagree:
Romans 1:1 Paul, a servant of Christ Jesus, called to be an apostle, set apart for the gospel of God,
1 Corinthians 1:1 Paul, called by the will of God to be an apostle of Christ Jesus
