Remember that the Scriptures weren't written in English. Do you actually know which Greek word is translated "to worship" in English?

Since none of these traits directly suggest that Jesus is on par with God (implying far more than mere divinity), everything hinges on interpretation. However, when interpretations of unclear passages conflict with definitive statements, which should be considered more significant in clarifying...

A brief exploration of Platonic philosophy, which re-emerged during the 3rd century, provides insights into the potential roots of the triune god belief. That era was marked by substantial philosophical inquiry, with various philosophical schools mirroring today's scientific communities. IMO...

Jesus appears to John in a vision over three decades after his ascent to heaven, and told him: Rev. 3:12 ‘The one who conquers—I will make him a pillar in the temple of my God, and he will by no means go out from it anymore, and I will write upon him the name of my God and the name of the city...

Will topics that were closed because the subject was being discussed be reopened to continue the threads? Several topics I opened or was debating on the last thread were closed for that reason. For example this one GOD in the OT and GOD in the NT

I consider myself under the same principles of the Law. Actually, Paul talked about the Law of Christ in Gal. 6:2, that is basically based on the love to God and to the neighbor, specially to those who serve the same God with us, to the point of suffer death for it. Matt. 22:37 He said to him...

A law might be misunderstood, its intent intentionally twisted, or exploited through technicalities to breach it; it can also be overstated, leading to harsh penalties. This is why we have lawyers, judges, prosecutors, witnesses, and trials. Trials can be just or unjust, based on the law...

From the perspective of a Christian who acknowledges that Jesus had been spiritually near to Israel from the outset, no one could grasp the true essence of the Sabbath law better than he did. Jesus demonstrated to the Jewish authorities that their interpretation of certain laws was not the...

By whose definition? By the Trinitarians'? From which "beginning"? 1 John 3:8 The one who practices sin originates with the Devil, because the Devil has been sinning from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was made manifest, to break up the works of the Devil.

During the era of Jesus Christ, the rabbis had established numerous regulations regarding prohibited activities on the Sabbath, such as addressing medical emergencies or even killing a flea. In contemporary times, some Jewish communities believe that even switching on a light is a breach of...

The following information was taken from a magazine article I studied some time ago... I hope it helps you understand why even if the Jewish religious leaders accused Jesus of violating the Sabbath law, in reality he was not violating it as stipulated in the written law...

Without getting into the forbidden topic, Trinitarians are the only ones who say that Christianity is Trinitarian. There are many Christian non-Trinitarian groups: Christadelphians, Unitarians, "Oneness" Pentecostals, Jehovah's Witnesses, and others.

That is not what JWs teach. The Bible indicates that even after Jesus is established in heaven by God as King, the time for judgment on earth has not yet arrived. For instance, Psalm 110:2 mentions that even when Jesus is seated as King at God's right hand, his enemies still need to be subdued...

Probably because they want to have a sky-goddess and mother of God.

That is incorrect. The "James and Joses", sons of the other Mary in Matt. 27:56, are not the same "James and Joseph" half-brothers of Jesus in Matt. 13:55,56. This seems to be another thread about "Mary didn't have more children".

Jesus said: John 8:29 And the One who sent me is with me; he did not abandon me to myself, because I always do the things pleasing to him. Observe the connection between the premises: Jesus acts in ways that please the One who sent him, leading to the consequence that the One who sent him...

The biblical perspective on an imperfect individual (after our first parents fall) is that they are born as sinners, even before committing any visible sin. From the moment of birth, they possess inherent flaws that incline them toward wrongdoing. This inherent nature often leads them to actions...

Are you serious? Again? Again? Again? People can read what I wrote and it's evident that it was not that you are saying. You should stop slandering other Christians, accusing them of saying things they have never said.

Like these who the Scriptures say? Heb. 2:14 Therefore, since the “young children” are sharers of blood and flesh, he also similarly shared in the same things, so that through his death he might bring to nothing the one having the means to cause death, that is, the Devil, 15 and that he might...
