    ˒ĕlōhı̂m: Plural Persons, or Majesty?

    ........................................ "one person is blindly following what others have said" ? I see where this may apply to you, but I suspect you are referring to me. All 15 of the sources quoted in my study of Elohim are, as carefully cited, from respected trinitarian authorities (and a...

    It would be wise for you to read carefully the "EVIDENCE" portion of post #3 above.

    ˒ĕlōhı̂m: Plural Persons, or Majesty?

    Elohim The International Standard Bible Encyclopedia says: “It is characteristic of Heb[rew] that extension, magnitude, and dignity, as well as actual multiplicity, are expressed by the pl[ural].” - Eerdmans Publishing Co., 1984 ed., Vol. II, p. 1265. Today’s Dictionary of the Bible, 1982...

    A Curious Question For Non-Trinitarians

    .............................................. ELOHIM - Plural 'God' Many trinitarian apologists will tell us that the Hebrew word for God (Elohim) is plural because it shows that God is a trinity. For example: "Among Trinitarian Christian writers it is [often] seen as evidence for the...

    A Curious Question For Non-Trinitarians

    ......................................... Phil. 2:6 (“grasp,” “held onto”?) Harpagmos Now notice how these two very trinitarian Bibles have rendered it: 1. “He did not think to snatch at [harpagmos, ἁρπαγμὸς] equality with God” - NEB. 2. “He did not think that by...

    A Curious Question For Non-Trinitarians

    ............................ When an exhaustive examination by anyone of John's use of "God" (ho theos) and all uses of his constructions which are truly parallel to Jn 1:1c are completed, it is apparent that John's intention for John 1:1c is "And the word was a god." Those who deny this have...

    A Curious Question For Non-Trinitarians

    ............................................ This Christian-professing person does more than call other posters "fools": #258 “Your words in your post are a LIE where you convey that Lord Jesus is not referred to as "the God" in the NT.” #315 “You most certainly LIED because you contradict...

    A Curious Question For Non-Trinitarians

    ............................................. The "corrupted Bibles" are all those which have "the Word was God" and have removed the name of God (YHWH in Hebrew) in their translations in most or all 6000+ places it occurs in the OT Hebrew manuscripts. The excuses given by trinitarians for...

    A Curious Question For Non-Trinitarians

    Those who don't wish to know the truth refuse to seek it. Immanuel Should Jesus really be considered to be God because he was symbolically “named” Immanuel (Is. 7:14; Mt. 1:23) [1] which means “God is with us”? No more so than Gabriel was calling himself God when he visited Mary and...

    A Curious Question For Non-Trinitarians

    .......................................... PLEASE give proper references for every quote you post! There are only three places in the entire Bible where the title “Alpha and Omega” is used: Rev. 1:8; Rev. 21:6; Rev. 22:13. “Alpha and Omega” as found at Rev. 1:11 in the KJV and NKJV is...

    A Curious Question For Non-Trinitarians

    ............................................. Please give proper references for all your quotes. John 20:28 is a statement by Thomas who had refused to believe that Jesus had been resurrected. His statement is a phrase without subject or verb and if subject and verb are to be supplied by the...

    Trinity

    ........................................... The Greek word proskuneo (or proskyneo) is defined in the 1971 trinitarian United Bible Societies’ A Concise Greek-English Dictionary of the New Testament, p. 154: “[Proskuneo] worship; fall down and worship, kneel, bow low, fall at another’s...

    A Curious Question For Non-Trinitarians

    Please read very carefully: You very often use the word "three" to describe God. Except for the spurious 1 John 5:7 in KJV, can you show just one place where actual scripture uses the word "three" to describe or refer to God?

    A Curious Question For Non-Trinitarians

    ................................................ Prov. 8:24 - When there were no depths, I was brought forth; when there were no fountains abounding with water. - KJV The Hebrew word for “brought forth” here revolves around the act of birthing. So how do trinitarian translators understand its...

    One and Triune God.

    .................................... So what difference does it make that those who tried to kill him said the obviously false statement: "said that God was His Father" which makes him equal with God. Good Grief, man. You should know that is a false statement!

    The Problem with 2 Peter 1:1

    God’s calling the nation of Israel his “firstborn son” obviously means the first nation he has caused to come into existence to be his own (and others must someday follow). Jer. 31:9 is actually found at Jer. 38:9 in the Septuagint. Again God is speaking of the nation of Israel (see context of...

    One and Triune God.

    So you are going with the many just because they are so plentiful? Matt. 7:13 and 7:21, 22.

    The Problem with 2 Peter 1:1

    "Firstborn of creation." "Only-begotten Son of God." Created as Wisdom (Most if not all Ante-Nicene Fathers considered Wisdom at Prov 8:22-30 to be the Son of God). I doubt that anyone will ever carefully exam my studies of John 1:1c, but at least I have proven to myself after very careful and...
