Two of them were angels. One of them was a Christophany.



The Greek word for and is kai, which can be translated even.
Two points.

While I referenced was written in Hebrew.

Yes, that is one of the meanings.

Listen to two linguists covering this verse. In the full Greek context it means name following Kai is an individual. And being used three times it designates three individuals.

Not three offices and not three modes. Three distinct personages.

So it is a Trinity statement.

And when the spy is when into the promised land, it says they brought a grape back on a stick between them.

That is a stem of grapes. Many individual grapes on a common stem in the unity of one. Hence one grape.

Many Christians are totally ignorant of the word uniplural.

It means three or more in a unity of one.

An army is singular but plural in composition. As is a family, club, nation, etc.

Understanding this word is critical to understanding Trinity.
Perhaps so, but until we have been convicted that understanding the Trinity is critical to our walk with God, why would we pursue it? No one man has the time or the ability to research all sides of every issue brought up by every church or group or person who claims to have or know God's Truth. To know when to proceed, or not, is not communication with God essential?

I posted more than enough proof for you to accept.

Some people may not fit into such a box as you would prescribe!
Going by what the Bible says.

The problem is you make all these profound proclamations and can prove none of them.

The truth isn't anything go. Or how you feel about it. The truth is truth.

GINOLJC, to all.

another false assumption, "uni-plural", the devil is never at rest, always cooking up, and serving a sweet lie. here is a site, that do a good job of exposing this "uni-plural" of God. here's the address.
"Genesis 1:26 and the Hebrew Noun "Elohim", Genesis 1:26 and the Hebrew Noun 'Elohim'
it's a good read. I'm still consuming the sub infor as we speak. but it explain the uni-plural of uni-plural as false.

The Truth, my friend, is Jesus! He is not a book... not even the Bible!

agreed, The Lord Jesus and the Bible clearly state Who God is, "a single" person "he", the "us", and the "our" refers to his own image in flesh to come.

The Bible does not say that.

The Old Testament was not written in Greek.

I was referring to Matthew 28:19, when I said that and can be translated as even.

This is in the New Testament.

You edited what I said.

It was not written in Greek.

What did I edit?

I was referring to Matthew 28:19; which was indeed written in Greek.

Just so you know, I am not opposed to the Trinity. What I am opposed to is the misunderstanding of it that amounts to Tritheism.

Try to explain that the theologians and linguists. See how far it get you.

What you posted is not a link, therefore not an address.
