Then there is no jesus who can save you from your sins.
Romans 10:9 (WEB): that if you will confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.

The requirement is that you believe that Jesus is the Lord, not that he is God, and that God raised Jesus from the dead.

John 3:16 (WEB): For God so loved the world, that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish, but have eternal life.

We need to believe in God's only Son, not believe in a third part of God.

You have not provided any evidence to support that. You have merely assumed that because God mentions three men that that somehow means that God is made up of three persons - but that is not what the Scripture says, and it is totally illogical to draw that conclusion. Peter said, "The God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, the God of our fathers, has glorified his Servant Jesus" (Acts 3:13) - there is just one God, not three, and Peter obviously didn't think Jesus was God if he called him God's servant (Peter knew Jesus was the son of God).


Which is God (Yahweh) speaking to His son Jesus, directing him on what to create next (for "God ... created all things through Jesus Christ" - Ephesians 3:9). Again it is totally illogical to deduce that God is anything other than a single living being from that, or any other, verse.


Genesis focuses on the creation, the flood, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob and Joseph. In what way do the lives of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob tell the story of who God is?


Please explain what you mean by "declaring His name in these three" and how you think that implies God is three persons. God made promises to those three men, and they are the fathers of the nation of Israel. I don't see any implication that God is three persons there.


Definitely no implication that God is three persons there.


You quoted a verse which you had modified by taking words from other verses and inserting them, thereby making it appear that God had said something that He did not.

On the contrary - the Scripture cannot lie - Elohim declared Himself by THREE and said This is MY NAME FOREVER.

It is you friend, that removes from Scripture through unbelief and to support your doctrine.

Gensesis is TRUTH and our Our Lord and Savior confirmed Genesis and Exodus and the Prophets.

The Gospel of John is all about the WORD/JEHOVAH/JESUS declaring the Truth of Genesis and Exodus 3: 14 -15 and the Prophets - see Isaiah 43

ABSOLUTELY Believe on the only NAME that can save you - Jesus the Christ - the only Begotten Son of the FATHER.

All the Bible commentaries that I've read interpret Exodus 3:15 to mean that YHVH (Yahweh) is God's name. God's name Yahweh is mentioned nearly 7,000 times and as I mentioned in reply #494 Isaiah 42:8 confirms that it is God's name: “I am Yahweh. That is my name. ...".

For those KJV only folks, see: Ps. 83:18.

"That men may know that thou, whose name alone is Jehovah, art the most high over all the earth."
