So, are you saying that early Christians changed the Gospel of John to say that God is three Persons in ONE God? If so, what basis do you have to say such a thing? And why don't you believe in the Trinity the way I describe the belief as found in the present Gospel of John?

Read the whole Gospel of John; John believes in the Trinity: three Persons in ONE God. Therefore, I do too.

No, but he is in the Christian faith (see the Gospel of John).

Yes, during my many, many times of reading through the whole Bible, I read that chapter in Genesis this morning! Abram shouldn't have lied and shouldn't have accepted Sarai's suggestion to take Hagar as his wife either, thus wavering in his faith in God's promise. Eve did the same to Adam by...

All the Old Testament believers had the gospel promise of Genesis 3:15 given to Satan, interestingly. They did have the gospel and hope of the coming of the Messiah. As the OT went on, they increased in that knowledge to be given it fully in Jesus, but they had it, according to Hebrews 11...

Yes, it's the whole church that is the bride of Christ. Remember that the new Jerusalem coming down out of heaven in Revelation 21 to the new earth wears a wedding dress!

I don't want any flavoring in my water, but that's just me.

Rather than dealing with the people who differed with each other about theology, I prefer to go to the Bible for the answers if there are any. In the Gospel of John, the Trinity is clearly taught throughout the book. I'll give you an insight from a liberal commentator who didn't believe in the...

Yes, throughout the Bible when God acts, it's the Persons of one God--the Father through Jesus by the Spirit's power--doing his work of creating, saving, and sanctifying together.

Do you want to follow Jesus' commandment? Jhn_13:34 A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another: just as I have loved you, you also are to love one another. Jhn_15:12 “This is my commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you. Who gives commandments? Kings, the same...

So, you don't think that the Old Testament applies to you? Only to the Jews? Well, here are two New Testament quotes from Paul's first letter to Timothy as well as one from Revelation about Jesus: 1Ti_1:17 To the King of the ages, immortal, invisible, the only God, be honor and glory forever...

Behold, prove to me that a demon helped Calvin create Calvinism. John Calvin did not believe that God caused everything to happen. He did not CAUSE evil to happen through the devil or in people's lives. They decided to be rebellious against him and are completely responsible for their...

Explain in detail what is unbiblical about the teaching of election in Calvinism and where you find such a dialogue in the Canons of Dort.

Behold, read and respond to the rest of my posts. We are not heretics or cultists.

You have never proven your accusations specifically with any evidence about the beliefs of Calvinism or the Reformed faith except broad generalizations. Get specific. What specific doctrines are unbiblical "deception? How specifically is it the "Doctrine of Devils"?

Behold, do you believe in the Trinity, the divine and human natures of Jesus, God's inspiration of the Bible, God's creation of the universe and humanity, the fall of humanity into sinful rebellion, the existence and rebellion of Satan and the fallen angels (demons), the existence of heaven and...

Behold, most Calvinists, including me, do not "follow Calvin." We have inspected Calvin's writings and have found them to be biblical according to the Bible's own teachings and assumptions. I was not a Calvinist until I was a student at Calvin College, a time when I compared those teachings to...

I as a Calvinist get your point, and it is a good one; we must share Jesus with people, not ideologies. Please don't lump us Calvinists with the cults. I have a wide knowledge of Calvinists in a dozen churches and groups of churches and in our denomination. Not one of them is in the business of...

Yes, early on, the Christian said, "you need to," which controlling the Prospect. Christian lost the conversation there. We have to respect other people's right to choose as fellow human creations.
