Yeah, the scriptures tell us that much. But doesn't explain the mechanics. It tells us what, but not how.

Continued.... Christ was to die as man's substitute. Man was a criminal under the sentence of death for transgression of the law of God, as a traitor, a rebel; hence a substitute for man must die as a malefactor, because he stood in the place of the traitors, with all their treasured sins upon...

There is nothing which will weaken the strength of a church like pride and passion. If one engaged in the work of God does things in contradiction to another engaged in the same work, that is strife and variance. If we do this to be esteemed or to exalt self, it is vain-glory, and death to...

Further to the above... And this is life eternal, that they might know Thee, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, Whom Thou has sent. John 17:3 Everywhere in the NT, it is explicitly taught that God sent His Son...that the Son came forth from the Father... that being the case, it is simply...

Then all you are left with is an insufficient human sacrifice. In fact, no sacrifice at all because your Trinitarian belief demands that all members of the Godhead are irrevocably connected to one another and cannot be divided.

There are many assumptions being made to sustain such an idea. Sons of God are not always angels. The faithful descendants of Adam were sons (and daughters) of God. The unfaithful children of Cain were the daughters (and sons) of the devil. Christ spoke to the spirits of men who were in...

Sperm? And create a straw man? We aren't told how the Son of God became a human being. We just know that He was born of a virgin, and lived without sin. “Jesus said unto them, If God were your Father, ye would love me: for I proceeded forth and came from God; neither came I of myself, but he...

You are the one with the issue. I have never claimed Christ was alive while dead. Christ died. Utterly, completely, fully dead. Otherwise we are not redeemed. He died the death that we must die if we refuse to repent and accept His mercy and His death in our place. Death is not a life at a...

I agree in part. Like death being sleep. But disagree with you on what the passage actually means. Christ did preach to the spirits in prison, as you say, in bondage to sin, and He did it in Noah's day, through the Spirit of Christ in Noah. Just as Christ preached through all the prophets...

You've been walking down the street on opposite sides for years and finally you get to say hello.

I know that. Oh, I understand that very well, and it of you had been a little more humble you would have seen it in my posts a long time ago, because it is tired to the fact that He is God's Son. Angels and men, no matter how pure and how holy, could not offer their lives. As a sacrifice...

Why is it that you acknowledge above the Father the Son, and thy holy Spirit yet deny the trinity, but acknowledge my acceptance of the Father, Son and holy Spirit, yet accuse me of being Trinitarian? “29 Jesus answered and said unto them, This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom...

Look to the sanctuary. Sins were confessed over, and transferred to the sacrificial victim. The priest, after eating a part of the victim, those were then transferred to the priest, who through the blood, transferred those sins into the sanctuary through the sprinkling of the blood before the...

Why should we need to explain it? Who can explain the infinite? Even if God should explain it, what makes you think you would underhand it?

The only reason Christ died was because He gave Himself up to His Father's will, and to death. The law only had power over Him negate He voluntarily accepted the responsibility for every sin and iniquity of mankind. He personally knew no sin nor did He have any proclivity or propensity toward...

The dilemma is the mystery of the Godhead, and scripture does not explain it. Neither does scripture explain the nature of the holy Spirit. We tread roughly on holy ground when we attempt to define what revelation does not define.

Where in the post you quoted did i suggest something different to what you wrote? For the record, (in case you've forgotten because I've said this many times) i believe Jesus is God. What else can the natural begotten ontological Son of God be, other than God begotten? Like begets like.

Read post 40 again. And take away the preconceptions and assumptions before you do. They're is nothing in scripture demanding the antichrist be a Jew, or be anointed the King of Israel. It has nothing to do with the nation of Israel, it has nothing to do with a physical temple in Jerusalem...

It is that unity part that i mainly have an issue with. Scripture does not tell us how that unity works. The councils which devised the creeds had to make certain assumptions in order to make the "one God " and the 3 persons harmonise. They had to make assumptions, and then create a...

You don't need the trinity to believe Christ is God. You only need to believe He is God's ONLY BEGOTTEN SON.
