Muffled
Jesus in me
So..i will find these phrases in the Bible? Where?
I believe you will not find those words. It is a derived concept. The statements are ambiguous and are both true and not true.

So..i will find these phrases in the Bible? Where?
The Bible should never be taken seriously, imo.
So what did they do?
They had a party or a summer break?
God is the Lord of Lords(Deuteronomy 10:17)=Jesus is the Lord of Lords(Revelation 19:16)
There can't be two different persons claiming this title.
Please! Why did you add (origin) and (goal)? That’s not in Scripture, either.God is the First (the origin) and the Last (the goal) (Isaiah 44:6)=Jesus is the First (the origin) and the Last (the goal) (Revelation 1:17)
There cannot be two different persons claiming this title.
God is the husband (Isaiah 54:5)=Jesus is the husband (2 Corinthians 11:2)
Two different persons cannot marry the same woman.
There can be several "Lords", but only one "Lord of Lords". This is a title that only one can claim. Just as there can be only one "God of Gods" and only one "King of Kings".Certainly there can, as there was in ancient Babylon...Belshazzar and his father; or as in Ancient Rome, a triumvirate
Who made Jesus, Lord? God, his Father. Philippians 2:9-11
The title "First" stands for the first Greek letter "Alpha", which means to be the origin of everything.Please! Why did you add (origin) and (goal)? That’s not in Scripture, either.
"Old Israel"? God never rejected his people.“The same woman”? Now you’re spinning. Ancient Israel and the Christian Congregation are not the same.
The rest is a Gish.
... You're splitting hairs. They deny that Jesus is God. That's all I meant.Arian believed Jesus was divine. Your understanding of Arianism is wrong.
That's what you think.
I believe you read the Bible and simply do not understand what it says otherwise you would n't be in such error.

There are many reasons to claim Jesus is God.
The angel would not rebuke Satan in Jude but Jesus rebuked Satan would be one.
Well its like this. Summer in Nicea is somewhere in July and August but the council of Nicea was May to June just about a month long so you cant really call that time summer. So it definitely cannot be called a summer break. But a normal party im not too sure. There are no records anyway of anything like that so Im not too sure.
The council of Nicea didnt invent anything. The emperor wanted to establish the most acceptable Christology and be done with it. But all the doctrines discussed already existed. Nothing was invented.
Cheers.
The Council of Nicaea, the first ecumenical debate held by the early Christian church, concludes with the establishment of the doctrine of the Holy Trinity. Convened by Roman Emperor Constantine I in May, the council also deemed the Arian belief of Christ as inferior to God as heretical, thus resolving an early church crisis.
The controversy began when Arius, an Alexandrian priest, questioned the full divinity of Christ because, unlike God, Christ was born and had a beginning. What began as an academic theological debate spread to Christian congregations throughout the empire, threatening a schism in the early Christian church. Roman Emperor Constantine I, who converted to Christianity in 312, called bishops from all over his empire to resolve the crisis and urged the adoption of a new creed that would resolve the ambiguities between Christ and God.
Meeting at Nicaea in present-day Turkey, the council established the equality of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit in the Holy Trinity and asserted that only the Son became incarnate as Jesus Christ. The Arian leaders were subsequently banished from their churches for heresy. The Emperor Constantine presided over the opening of the council and contributed to the discussion.

Your cut and paste is supplementary to what I just told you brother. There is no need to be so aversive of what one person says as if your default position is to just oppose.
Read up on the theology of Arius. Maybe read a book by Rowan Williams. Or even someone like Hanson. You will understand.
Anyway, thats the end of it. Cheers.
I 'm not familiar with Arius.
Maybe some Middle Eastern guy?
I'm Asian, just reading the Bible.
English or Tagalog will do
Catholic or Protestant translated will do
If the Bible says Jesus is a man and not God
I don't see Aruis there but the truth
View attachment 33658
1 Timothy 2:5 clearly says that the mediator between God and men is
THE MAN Christ Jesus.
No Arius there since that was written by Apostle Paul
Why didn't Apostle Paul wrote THE GOD Christ Jesus?
Because Christ Jesus is not God, but a MAN
And I conform my belief and my faith with that taught by the apostles of Christ
if it is written in the Bible, I do not go beyond it.
If it is established by some ancient defunct now dead bishops in the present day Muslim Turkey
I believe people should reject it.
If it is hand over by fanatics, unthinking religious, pious individuals who do not have a biblical basis
I believe people should reject it.
Well, one cant talk about the council of Nicea without talking about Arius. I didnt debate the Bible, I was only correcting your view about the council of Nicea. Just history, thats it.
That is right Arius was there.
But still I am not familiar with the character.
As in, should I remember the guy every now and then.
What I am reminded is a lot of people do regard Jesus Christ as God
The Catholics and Protestants in a Trinity setting, the Pentecostal in a Oneness/Modalism
The Mormons in a Three [3] God format.
Arius has not influence what I believe because what I believe are written plainly in the Bible.
Not from Arius podcast or writings.
And this is what the Catholic bible says:
John 14:23-28 Good News Translation (GNT)
Jesus answered him, “Those who love me will obey my teaching. My Father will love them, and my Father and I will come to them and live with them. Those who do not love me do not obey my teaching. And the teaching you have heard is not mine, but comes from the Father, who sent me.
“I have told you this while I am still with you. The Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you everything and make you remember all that I have told you.
“Peace is what I leave with you; it is my own peace that I give you. I do not give it as the world does. Do not be worried and upset; do not be afraid. You heard me say to you, ‘I am leaving, but I will come back to you.’ If you loved me, you would be glad that I am going to the Father; for he is greater than I.
------------------------------
Arius [a participant in the Council of Nicaea 325 AD] did not translate nor wrote the bible. The Bible has existed even before he was born. He lived in a separate time and did not meet apostle John or the Lord Jesus Christ. Yet his beliefs seem to conform with the teachings of the Bible.
The inventions of the Council of Nicaea 325 AD runs contrary with the Bible [even with the Catholic translated ones]
Catechism of the Catholic Church - The Father
232 Christians are baptized "in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the ... council at Nicaea (325) that the Son is "consubstantial" with the Father, that is, ... third person of the Trinity, is God, one and equal with the Father and the Son, .... up or inferior degree that casts down. . . the infinite co-naturality of three infinites.
comparing what is in the Bible [as shown above]
.....I am going to the Father; for he is greater than I.
So Jesus is "a god" rather than "the God". Basically really pretty similar to what modern Jehovah's witnesses say. In this kind of a debate you have to simplify a bit. We all should already know they believe Jesus is some kind of divinity; but not the same Divine nature as the Father.Thats what some people think. But Arius Taught and Thought that Jesus was God, he was the Son of God, the word, but he was subordinate to God the father, and that he was created at some point of time in history, but all creation was created through Jesus, and that the religion rests in scripture, the baptism in the name of the father, the son, and the holy ghost. That was what Alexander condemned. According to Arius, Jesus, the Logos, did not exist with God from the Beginning, Jesus was created as the Son of God before creation, but he himself was a creation or a production of the father (Gegenomenon), so he is not God the father, and that was Arianism.
The opposition was that all three of the trinity existed from the beginning.
Jesus has a God. He is not the God who is his God. He simply represents the God who is his God. That makes one God and one Lord. Jesus' God has highly exalted Jesus to a position as God(Lord) above all angels and men.So Jesus is "a god" rather than "the God". Basically really pretty similar to what modern Jehovah's witnesses say. In this kind of a debate you have to simplify a bit. We all should already know they believe Jesus is some kind of divinity; but not the same Divine nature as the Father.
So that brings us full circle again. Either you have two Gods (a greater and a lesser) or one God. I believe in only one God the Father. Jesus the Son is God the Father manifest. The vast majority of their arguments against this can be explained by the duality of Christ's nature. Fully God and fully man.
