.................................................... There are several NT Greek words in Phil. 2:6 which are misused by many trinitarian scholars. One of them is harpagmos. There could be some doubt about the meaning of the word harpagmos if we looked only at the NT Greek Scriptures (since...

................................ Gen. 26:3 - Sojourn in this land, and I will be with thee, and will bless thee; for unto thee, and unto thy seed, I will give all these countries, and I will perform the oath which I sware unto Abraham thy father; - KJV and more than 45 others. Genesis 26:3 -...

.......................................... Not only is the wording of Ex. 3:14 not "I am" but "I will be" in the Hebrew OT and "the being" in the Septuagint version, but everywhere else in Moses' writings the Hebrew (ehyeh) is rendered in nearly all Bibles as "I will be." We know that some of...

........................................ Notice quotation mark use in Rev. concerning who is speaking and when they stop speaking. NASB, Rev. 22: 10 And he [the angel] said to me, “Do not seal up the words of the prophecy of this book, for the time is near. 11 Let the one who does wrong...

Yachid (Continuing reply to #181 above) A few trinitarians insist that not only does echad mean “plural oneness,” but that, if singleness were intended by the Bible writer, the Hebrew word yachid would have been used at Deut. 6:4. Here is how it was presented to me by one trinitarian...

reply to #181 above Echad (‘Plural’ Oneness) and Yachid (‘Absolute’ Oneness) I have seen Deut. 6:4 - “YHWH [Jehovah/Yahweh] our God, YHWH [Jehovah/Yahweh] one [Echad] in Hebrew]” - rendered in several ways. (I prefer "Jehovah [is] our God, Jehovah alone.") Some trinitarians misinterpret...

............................................... Alpha and Omega and the speaker confusion trick To use the “speaker confusion trick” to “prove” that John is the Lord Almighty we would point to the fact that John was definitely speaking at Rev. 1:7, and then (by using our own punctuation or the...

......................................................... Since every other use of ehyeh found in Moses' writings is translated into English as "I will be," it more than likely has the same meaning at Exodus 3:14 (compare Ex. 3:12). A number of respected trinitarian sources agree. As for...

The NASB, NIV, and the NWT have concordances. For KJVO folks, what does it say at Psalm 83:18?

Here is a list of all the proper uses in John’s writings of the constructions which are parallel to John 1:1c (predicate noun without article found before the verb). It properly omits those which use prepositional or possessive modifiers or non-count nouns (‘honesty,’ ‘bronze,’ ‘oatmeal,’...

1 Tim. 3:16 ("God was manifest in the flesh") As this is translated in the KJV it makes Paul say that Jesus is God "manifest in the flesh." Although the KJV translates 1 Tim. 3:16 with "God" as above, nearly all other translations today use a word which refers, not to God, but to Jesus...

But they wrote the name thousands of times in the OT manuscripts.

Marymog wrote in #81 above: However, the Holy Spirit is referred to in personal terms by our Lord throughout the New Testament: And I will pray the Father, and he will give you another Counselor, to be with you for ever, even the Spirit of truth, who the world cannot receive, because it neither...

............................................... Mt. 28:19 "...in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the holy spirit." Trinitarian author Robert Reymond was quoted as saying about this scripture in his book Jesus the Divine Messiah, “what [Jesus] does say is this ... ‘into the name...

..................................................... You tell us: The Holy Spirit is most often preceded by "the" as in "The Holy Spirit". For example, John 14:26, "But the Advocate, the Holy Spirit, whom [neuter: o, ‘which’] the Father will send in my name, will teach you everything, and will...

“The emergence of Trinitarian speculations in early church theology led to great difficulties in the article about the Holy Spirit. For the being-as-person of the Holy Spirit, which is evident in the New Testament as divine power...could not be clearly grasped.... The Holy Spirit was viewed...

Quotes: Holy Spirit is a Force from God, Trinitarians Admit In the Old Testament (OT) it is clear that the inspired Bible writers intended holy spirit (ruah or ruach in Hebrew) to be understood as an invisible, powerful force from God. Even many trinitarian scholars will admit that. For...

ELOHIM and the trinity 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 doctrine of the Trinity, a plurality in the Godhead."...

Some scriptures can be rendered in more than one way. The use of Titus 2:13 and 2 Peter 1:1 is an example. 2 Peter 1:1 has the same problems as found in Titus 2:13 and may honestly be rendered "Simon Peter, a bondservant and Apostle of Jesus Christ: To those to whom there has been allotted the...
