Christian Trinity

[lostwanderingsoul]

That is one of the many flaws in the Christian mythology I keep pointing out.

Now regardless of which flavor of Christianity you've been brainwashed to believe, be it that jesus IS 'god" or the SON of "god", why is it that myself and many others can get instructions directly from God, yet jesus had to READ and LEARN from man made SCRIPTURES to learn about himself/"god" and all other spiritual matters?

I mean, if he's "god" or the son of "god" you would think he would be well above our spiritual level and either have the answers already, or at least be able to ask "god" the FATHER for answers, rather than rely upon man made scriptures that have no true spiritual answers.

I honestly do not understand how you and many others can get instructions directly from God. Do you have his phone number or email address? Most of us get instructions from the Bible which we believe to be God's word.

Look, it's not my fault that you were led astray by the lies of MAN, so are left spiritually broken, lost, and cut off from God.

So don't take it out on me if you have lost your connection to your own soul, with it's direct link to God.

I do not follow any man. All my beliefs are from the Bible. Unlike many religions that follow the traditions of man.

I believe that is correct. God is one in the Father, the Son and The Holy Ghost. So it can never be said that God is the three only that He is in the three.

Seriously?

He

is in

the three

 

[Jeremiah Ames]

I believe they err and find the truth about as well as any unsaved person.

That statement raises the question:

What, exactly, is a “saved” person vs an “unsaved” person?

People will make up all kinds of nonsense to explain what cannot be explained.

Well, that's why you are left spiritually broken, lost, and cut off from God. Because the bible was written by MAN.

A "saved" person is one who just "saved" a ton of money by switching to GEICO.

I thought everyone knew that.

The words were written down by men but come from God. Traditions, however, are completely made up by men.

2 more letters ''un''. most ,if not all, can not even say what it means or when it happens.

My problem with that, is that God has always given me answers to all my spiritual questions in a clear, concise, and all encompassing manner. So there is no way I will ever believe that God had anything to do with the writing of all that gibberish that teaches nothing truly spiritual and only lies about God, his laws, his plan for ALL souls, etc.

 

[Brickjectivity]

This is only for Christians. All the other religions that I’m aware of have their god and they all see god properly, as far as I can tell (from my extremely limited experience). It’s the Christian religion construct of a trinity of persons that is contrary to common sense. So, I propose the following, for those who call themselves Christian, to ponder:


“The absolute God is Jesus Christ, who is the Lord Jehovah, Creator from eternity, Redeemer in time, and Regenerator to eternity. He is the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit combined. This is the gospel that needs to be preached.” - True Christianity


This seems to make infinitely more sense than the ‘mystery’ of the trinity. What do you think?

I suggest instead of criticizing the trinity, criticize the legal requirements placed on people to accept what they don't understand. Criticize the attempt to coerce other assemblies to give lip service to the trinity. This is not good. The councils which attempted to enforce creeds? Not good. That doesn't mean the trinity is evil or that not having the trinity is evil. The control and the fight for supremacy seem evil and questionable, but if its the trinity you want to discuss you must take the long road and understand it, first; or you could find yourself speaking against something good which you assume that is something but which is something else.
