    What 'Unorthodox' doctrine has come into the church?

    Well, sir, I suppose that no other verse in scripture has reference to any baptism in the Triune formula does not serve as evidence to you, and the Didache and ECF letters are not scripture. Your efforts to justify your Trinitarian position may well serve you, but you still have shown me any...

    Which denomination do I belong to?

    I just had to do some "annotating" of the truths you posted. God bless you!

    I don't use Reddit, but I'll take your word for it. Yes, I have seen stuff like this before. Isn't it amazing that The Trinity is so true that nobody is allowed to discuss it? Most church "statements of faith" contain their belief in the trinity yet I have yet to see any pastor or teacher who...

    Who is the Paraclete?

    I disagree with the first sentence above. God IS spirit, (and so is Jesus now) and His spirit indwells those who surrender to Him. He is our paraclete.

    Which denomination do I belong to?

    You are exactly correct brother. Many make the claim that God's Spirit teaches them truth. I have spoken to many who make that claim, and at one time, so did I. However, the truth was that the preaching and teaching of others created "my truth." I had never really surrendered myself to God and...

    What 'Unorthodox' doctrine has come into the church?

    See my post ahead of this one. Scripture never contained the words you show here until the Catholic Church and the ECF changed it.

    Which denomination do I belong to?

    Well, there is nothing in scripture that proves God was not serious when He said that He ALONE is Yahweh God. He also did not revoke his statement that we can have other gods before Him. I have seen no scripture that revokes what Yahweh has stated. We should keep in mind that God's word never...

    Which denomination do I belong to?

    Interesting view. I let God's spirit teach me, as we are told in Scripture to do. I would hope that is your method of determining truth as well, but since you rely on Apostolic Succession or man's guarantee, I may be hoping wrong. John 14:26 But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father...

    What is the new nature?

    That is true here, but watching the mass media's effect on the public shows that it does work most of the time.

    Which denomination do I belong to?

    So, I suppose that we should all accept that God was not serious when He told us the He -alone- is God. Those who claim that there is another God make Yahweh a liar. Yahweh made clear statements yet man thinks he can discover the deception performed by Yahweh. One day, those who claim to think...

    What 'Unorthodox' doctrine has come into the church?

    The Early Church Fathers, in general, is the group that started the alteration of the church that Jesus started. Using them as proof of anything should first be seen an unscriptural. Catholic Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger (Pope Benedict XVI) The basic form of our (Matthew 28:19 Trinitarian)...

    Which denomination do I belong to?

    No, the bible says to not avoid time with fellow believers. It does not have to be in a "church" building. While it may appear impossible for those living in cities, there are very limited churches in many areas whose doctrines match those given in scripture. In fact, those churches don't want...

    Which denomination do I belong to?

    That is exactly my point, and I'll say it again. Neither Yeshua nor His apostles ever said that Yeshua is God. The Catholic church did. What Yahweh said is: Is 37:16 “O LORD of hosts Yahweh, God of Israel, enthroned above the cherubim, you are the God, you alone, of all the kingdoms of the...

    Which denomination do I belong to?

    Brother, neither Jesus nor the Apostles taught the doctrines of the Trinity or the infallibility of the Pope.

    How do conservative evangelicals reconcile their support for Trump with Trump’s sinful lifestyle?

    That is true. For those of us who divorced and remarried prior to becoming a Christian, we have our sins washed away. However, I see that to divorce again - in order to not be committing adultery with our second wife - would also be a sin. That situation if not addressed in scripture other than...

    What 'Unorthodox' doctrine has come into the church?

    Brother, should we not avoid mud-slinging among we fallible humans?

    Which denomination do I belong to?

    Since I have surrendered my ordination in order to be free to let God give me understanding, that is what I depend on. Without getting in the mud, my brother, "held since the beginning" means before the destruction of the second Temple. All of the New Testament letters were written by then.

    Which denomination do I belong to?

    These are pretty bold statements, brother. Since you claim to interpret scripture as the original author(s) intended them. are you claiming to know what God intended? If so, I would think the Catholic church would excommunicate you. Then again, the New Testament books were written before the...
