many brain dead people have come back to what we calls ... "NORMAL LIFE"

I don't know who told you such a lie, because I've never heard of even one. If both the cerebrum and the brainstem are dead, there is no function that can bring a person back to "normal." Organs may be kept viable through intubated ventilation. You may be thinking of someone in a coma. But we are getting off the subject. If you are here just to win a debate by making false statements and hope someone doesn't know the truth, well happy debating. I'm not here to debate with lies, but to supply actual truth.

(smile). .... lol, thanks for the reply. I neither debate nor lie. I discuss, and tell the truth. all this other stuff is for you... (smile), so leave me out. not if you want to "DISCUSS" the trinity, I'm in.

as I been saying, I'm a "diversified oneness" believer, just as all the bible patrons who believe in JESUS .... "ALONE".

"spirit" is what makes YOU - you besides the physical part. So it your "being". The Father in Heaven's BEING is the Holy Spirit. That is HIS Spirit - in fact He is Spirit. So it is His complete Being. The Son possessed Flesh but that flesh was filled with the Spirit of the Father in Heaven.

So there is the Father, the Son, and the Spirit but the Spirit is not a separate person. It IS the person of God Himself.

Consider the type -
In the beginning was the Rib, and the Rib was with Adam and the Rib was Adam. You see Eve was made from the flesh of Adam. They are one flesh just as children we receive flesh from our parents. The flesh is a type of the Spirit.

When you are saved, your BEING is replaced by His BEING. That is why we are dead if we are saved. Because we would no longer exist as our evil spirit has been displaced by God's Spirit.

thanks for the reply, correct, it is the Spirit that make us who we are, or the LIVING Soul. for a body without the spirit is "dead". but not the Spirit.

When the apostle John was given the vision of Revelation, he was moved to fall down to worship at the feet of the angel who delivered the message. But he was warned 'DO NOT DO THAT'

Its interesting that the angel did not tell John to worship Jesus...he told him to 'worship God'

Rev 19:9 And he tells me, “Write: Happy are those invited to the evening meal of the Lamb’s marriage.” Also, he tells me: “These are the true sayings of God.” 10 At that I fell down before his feet to worship him. But he tells me: “Be careful! Do not do that! I am only a fellow slave of you and of your brothers who have the work of witnessing concerning Jesus. Worship God! For the witness concerning Jesus is what inspires prophecy.”

The Angel differentiates between Jesus and God. The trinity idea does not. Notice how the Angels says he is "a fellow slave of john and has the work of witnessing concerning Jesus. Worship God!"

Why does the angle not say, Worship Jesus?



You may want to look again. The angel did tell John to worship God. BUT the angel did not make the distinction you are claiming (at least not in Scripture).

Now, why not a trinity?

God is one, and the title of this one God is "Holy" and he is Spirit.... hence "Holy Spirit". and this one Spirit is what we call "GOD", and this ONE God name is "JESUS", hebrew "Yeshua".

this one God is the "Diversity", or the Offspring of himself in flesh. this is the mystery many struggle with.

God is "Spirit", and this "Spirit" shared himself in flesh... mystery cleared up.

If you are not lying, show me your evidence of a brain-dead person of both the cerebrum and brainstem coming back to a normal life. Otherwise, confess and repent.
NOW DON'T TAKE THIS THE WRONG WAY
for those who don't have the TRUTH of "Diversified Oneness" just look in the mirrow, and you will see them......

AND IF THEY REPENT....... BRAVO, THEN THEY ARE "ALIVE" IN CHRIST JESUS....... :D

Confirm your statement you so blatantly supplied as a statement of fact. Once a liar, nothing can be trusted that comes out of their mouth.

Just read post #89 again.... :rolleyes:

just keep reading it, you will eventually get it.

An unrepentant liar quenches the Spirit of Truth. I refuse to take you seriously until you are filled with the Spirit through repentance, and a promise you won't lie to me again. And that's final.

There is nothing you could teach me while deliberately quenching the Spirit.
why not let the Holy Ghost teach you, because if I would teach you, you will be out the door in no time.

but I'm willing to give it a try, .... :eek: ... (smile)... lol

the topic, "Why the trinity?"
because it never existed. it's false doctrine, man made.

to reprove a false doctrine one have to go to the source .... the beginning.

and the number 1 scripture that many trinity believers states at a beginning is,
Genesis 1:26 "And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth."

so CharismaticLady, is this a trinity or your trinty here in Genesis 1:26 yes or no?

or... you can pick a scripture of your choosing ..... (smile) .. and we can discuss it.

I think you are reading into the text what is not there. Jesus never refused worship. In other words, he was God.....if he wasn't he would have been a charlatan by accepting worship.

When the angel says 'worship God' he is not discounting Jesus as is clear from Rev. 22:13 where Jesus says ' I am the Alfa and the Omega, the Beginning and the End, the First and the Last.'

I disagree, Jesus isn't saying, "I am the Alfa and the Omega, the Beginning and the End, the first and the last," Jehovah God is.

no its not, read about the God of Abraham (the father) Isaac (the son offered) and Jacob rename Israel of with the children are of via the twelve.

read where Jesus tells that the Father is in Him and with Him and He in the Father and the Spirit is a given.

Wow how lame is this to try to make this Trinitarian evidence.

Your reply here suits your narrative BB but that is not the context of the text....that is abundantly clear.
