    If you read my response, I addressed what you posted….. You said…. “The body of Christ, all functioning separately but as one. This suggests to me that we are one in "spirit". And in the same way are Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Functioning separately as one. When the disciples asked Jesus...

    Not strange really when you realize that they are all English translations that were translated by trinitarians. Read that verse in Greek and see what they left out….one small word was omitted that changed the meaning of the whole verse. ”In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with...

    I was given a KJV when I was 10 years old….I couldn’t understand it at all. No one I knew spoke like that. “Readily understood by a child”?….it’s not readily understood by many adults. There is a difference between “divinity” and “deity”….”theos” is used of angels, human judges, false gods and...

    I’m afraid I ditched the old KJV many years ago as a dead language for a different generation who spoke a very different English language. In order to understand the Bible it must be read in the language you speak….I do not speak archaic English and neither does anyone I know. It’s phrasing is...

    You are correct…the spirit of Christ would be reflected in our zeal for all the things that God’s Kingdom will return to us…all that we lost in Eden, Jesus came to get back for us…..and the kingdom is the means to accomplish it. He is God’s son in two ways, both involved the operation of God’s...

    THE Trinity can Now be discussed.

    There are several reasons why I believe that Jesus was the son of God from “the beginning”. He was not one of many sons, which the Bible refers to many times, but the pre human Jesus was the one “through whom” all creation came. Col 1:15-17… ”He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn...

    THE Trinity can Now be discussed.

    Is the “spirit of Christ” and the “spirit of God”, one and the same spirit? If so why differentiate them? The word “spirit” is used in many ways in Scripture. Being “born again” means a heavenly inheritance, but not all are born again, because heaven is not the only inheritance…Jesus said that...

    ”Lord” is a title of respect….it is not another name for Yahweh. “There are many gods and many lords” according to Paul who spoke for the apostles collectively….but he clarified his statement…..”there is actually to us one God, the Father, from whom all things are and we for him; AND there is...

    Are you serious? How does a dismembered body function? The body of Christ must be united as Paul said… 1 Cor 1:10…. ”Now I urge you, brothers, through the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you should all speak in agreement and that there should be no divisions among you, but that you may be...

    Who was John the Baptist? And what witness did he bear regarding the of whom one he said “was the true Light which gives light to every man coming into the world.” Who was John talking about? He said…”He came to His own, and His own did not receive Him. 12 But as many as received Him, to them...

    Who is this written to and for? Who is speaking and what does he mean? You quote these scriptures as if everyone should see what you are assuming. They do not….. Where is it saying what you are suggesting? When will “every knee bow” and “every tongue take an oath”? What is this declaration in...

    THE Trinity can Now be discussed.

    Not a single scripture says so. It is the assumption of trinitarians through faulty translation and applied inference and suggestion. This is how science teaches evolution and why so many accept it in spite of the fact that there is no evidence that is not implied or suggested. Humans will...

    THE Trinity can Now be discussed.

    The word “spirit” has several meanings in the Bible. It can mean the personality of an individual or group of people strongly motivated in one direction, or individually describing strong personality traits. Even animals can be described as “spirited”. The spirit of God is manifested in...

    THE Trinity can Now be discussed.

    I know you do….because if you didn’t, you would not relate such an experience with happiness….the truth would take all that deception away and reveal what the visitation really was. What does “their angels” mean? Does it say what you assume that it does? Who are these “little ones”? Literal...

    Exactly my point….”monogenes” means “a unique only child”, which Jesus was in his pre-human existence and as a human on earth….in both presentations, he was divinely produced by the power of God’s spirit.

    These kinds of stories make the hair on the back of my neck stand up! This was not an angelic encounter but a demonic one….just because it was “nice” didn’t mean it was with good intent. Like their master, the demons can masquerade as “angels of light” and teach children (naive and innocent) not...

    It’s good to see that Bible truth is removing and replacing false doctrine…..what else could be examined more closely, I wonder? Please don’t dismiss Scripture as unnecessary in a person’s spiritual journey however…Jesus and his apostles taught everything from God’s word…..so should we….as you...

    Thank you for all that detail Brakelite, but it adds nothing to what I posted….”monogenes” means “an only child” in any sense of the word. The pre-human Jesus existed as “the son of God” from “the beginning” which is his beginning…. Rev 3:14…”the beginning of God’s creation”…. Col 1:15…”the...

    Any wonder some want to ‘accuse’ you of being a JW @Ritajanice …..these are our beliefs too.

    Now, I’ve gotta say, that one brought a chuckle…..how do you bring forth something “Jesus never directly mentioned”….? :ummm: There are so many scriptures that contradict the trinity that it is incomprehensible to me how so many accept it without question on so little actual...
