    Understanding the Trinity.

    John tells us that no man has ever seen God (John 1:18, 1 John 4:12). ............................ "Yes, he [Jacob] wrestled with the angel and prevailed; He wept and implored His favor. He found Him at Bethel, And there He spoke with us," - Hosea 12:4, NASB.

    Understanding the Trinity.

    ........................................................ Is. 9:6 All Christians, I believe, accept this son as being the Christ. Some will tell you that since the meaning of this symbolic name includes the words "Mighty God, Eternal Father," then Jesus is the Mighty God and the Eternal...

    Understanding the Trinity.

    .......................................... 1 John 5:7 Noted NT scholar, Dr. William Barclay, states the following about 1 John 5:7 as found in the KJV: "There is, of course, nothing wrong with it [if the trinity were really true as trinitarians like Barclay himself want!]; but modern...

    Understanding the Trinity.

    ......................................................... Zechariah 12:10 Jehovah God speaks: "...they shall look upon me whom they have pierced, and they shall mourn for him, as one mourneth for his only son" - Zech. 12:10, KJV; cf. NKJV, NIV, NASB, NEB, REB, ASV, AB, KJIIV, ETRV, Douay...

    Understanding the Trinity.

    ........................................................... Acts 20:28 ("God...with his own blood") Trinitarians, for obvious reasons, prefer this translation of Acts 20:28 - "... to shepherd ["feed" in some translations] the church of God which He purchased with His own blood." -...

    The Three that Bear Witness 1 John 5:7-9

    1 Jn 5:7 continued The highly respected (and trinitarian) United Bible Societies has published a commentary on the New Testament text. It discusses 1 John 5:5-7 as follows: “After μαρτυροῦντες [“bearing witness”] the Textus Receptus [Received Text] adds the following: ἓν τῷ οὐρανῷ, ὁ...

    The Three that Bear Witness 1 John 5:7-9

    1 Jn 5:7 The fact is that John did not write the words found at 1 Jn 5:7 in the KJV! And we must consider why trinitarian scholars and copyists felt compelled to add it to the Holy Scriptures. The only other Bibles which include this passage that I am aware of are the Catholic Douay Version...

    The Case For The Triune GodHead!

    11. 10) Every knee shall bow, and "every tongue" shall confess to GOD! (Romans 14:11; Isaiah 45:21-23). The GOD "every tongue is confessing to,” Is The LORD JESUS CHRIST! (Philippians 2:11) ….……………………………………………………………… Ro. 14:11 is clearly an OT quote acknowledging God (YHWH, Jehovah) as...

    The Case For The Triune GodHead!

    10. 9) JESUS CHRIST was WORSHIPPED! (Matthew 2:11, 14:33, 28:9; Luke 24:52) Not once did JESUS Say, "See thou do it not," as "an angel NOT to be worshipped," spoke in Revelation 19:10, And, 22:8-9! ….……………………………………………………………………………….. The angels in Rev. were not acting as representatives of...

    The Case For The Triune GodHead!

    9. 8) ALL the angels of God Worship HIM! (Hebrews 1:6), therefore, It Is Impossible for JESUS CHRIST to be = “Michael the archANGEL!” ….…………………………………………………………………………….. Heb. 1:6 At Heb. 1:6 the KJV (and many other trinitarian translations) says: "And again, when he [the Father] bringeth in...

    The Case For The Triune GodHead!

    8. 7) JESUS CHRIST Is Over All, God, Blessed For Ever. Amen! (Romans 9:5) Ro. 9:5 - “ ... Christ came, who is over all, God blessed for ever. Amen.” - KJV. This is the scripture that A Catholic Dictionary calls “the strongest statement of Christ’s divinity in St. Paul, and, indeed, in...

    The Case For The Triune GodHead!

    7. 6) JESUS CHRIST Is Called The True God And Eternal Life! (1 John 5:20) 1 Jn 5:20 (“We are in him that is true, even in his Son Jesus Christ. This [outos] is the true God, and eternal life.” - KJV) Some trinitarians actually insist that the word “this” (outos) here refers to...

    The Case For The Triune GodHead!

    6. 5) JESUS CHRIST Is Called The Mighty God! (Isaiah 9:6 cp Jeremiah 32:18) There are at least two other ways this personal name has been interpreted by reputable Bible scholars. (1) The titles within the name (e.g., “Mighty God”) are intended in their secondary, subordinate senses (e.g., “a...

    The Case For The Triune GodHead!

    5. 4) JESUS CHRIST Is Called The Great God And Saviour! (Titus 2:13) ….………………………………………………………… We can find numerous translations of Titus 2:13 (probably the most-used scripture for this [Sharp’s Rule] “proof”) which render it as referring to two persons. Titus 2:13 Bible translations old...

    The Case For The Triune GodHead!

    4. 3b) God Has A Father (Revelation 1:6). That God Is JESUS CHRIST, The SON! ….……………………….. I’m surprised that anyone who truly examined it would accept this KJV mistranslation (in modern English) as “evidence.” Here is how it reads in the NT texts (including the Textus Receptus used by...

    The Case For The Triune GodHead!

    3. (continued) Heb 1:8 Quoted From Ps. 45 In addition to these admissions by trinitarian translators concerning Heb. 1:8, we need to look back at the Old Testament Hebrew scripture (Ps. 45:6) that Paul was quoting when he wrote Heb. 1:8. The RSV renders it as “Your Divine throne”...

    The Case For The Triune GodHead!

    3. 3a) The SON, JESUS CHRIST Is Called God, By HIS Own Father! (Hebrews 1:8) ….…………………………………………………… Hebrews 1:8 is one of the more commonly used scriptures for trinitarian “evidence” in spite of (in reality, because of) its obvious ambiguity. This is because on the surface (at least as...

    The Case For The Triune GodHead!

    2. 2) JESUS CHRIST Is EMMANUEL “interpreted = God With us!" (Matthew 1:21-23) ….……………………………………..…… Immanuel Should Jesus really be considered to be God because he was symbolically “named” Immanuel (Is. 7:14; Mt. 1:23) which means “God is with us”?[1] No more so than Gabriel was calling...

    The Case For The Triune GodHead!

    Grace Ambassador repeatedly adds lists of trinity 'proofs,' among others, (as add-ons to his posts). I would like to reply to all of them, but I have reached a point in life where it is difficult for me even to cut and paste from my own studies. Nevertheless, I will attempt to discuss the 11...
