    Divinity of Jesus Christ!

    ......................................................... "They worshiped Jesus and only God can be worshiped!" The words in the original languages which are translated "worship" in KJV and many others are shachah (Hebrew) and proskuneo (NT Greek). The Greek word proskuneo (or proskyneo) is...

    The Trinity

    ....................................... 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”? No more so than Gabriel was calling himself God when he visited Mary and declared: “The Lord is...

    The Trinity

    If you look at other NT texts than the flawed Received Text, you will see that many modern texts have monogenes theos. Also the p66 and p75 manuscripts dated to the second century have onlybegotten theos.

    The Trinity

    Aunty Jane was referring to John 1:18 "monogenes theos" not John 3:16. John1:1c is better translated "And the Word was a god." Examining the Trinity: John 1:1c Primer - For Grammatical Rules That Supposedly "Prove" the Trinity or Examining the Trinity

    Divinity of Jesus Christ!

    ............................................................ First, it is Irenaeus, not Iranaeus. Second, the existing manuscript has been modified by trinitarian copyists through the centuries who (if they wished to keep their heads) would never add non-trinitarian passages to their copies...

    Understanding the Trinity.

    Thank you Wrangler and APAK. My blog is Examining the Trinity There is a pretty good index at the upper right of the blog page (thanks to my son!)

    Understanding the Trinity.

    .................................................. Instead of clear, simple statements that God is three persons who are equally the one God, trinitarians most often compare one scripture with another and manage to “discover” that God is three equal persons. So here is a tongue-in-cheek example...

    You should add these 2 Aramaic to English "Peshitta" bibles to your library

    "holy spirit," being in the neuter gender in NT Greek, is properly referred to with neuter pronouns ("it," "itself," etc.). The Encyclopedia Americana tells us: “The doctrine of the Holy Spirit [as a person who is God] is a distinctly Christian one.... the Spirit of Jehovah [in the OT] is...

    Understanding the Trinity.

    ...................................... 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) That is the trinitarian interpretation of that scripture. Remember, I specified "clear, undisputed scripture"...

    Understanding the Trinity.

    The only clear, undisputed scripture which speaks of the only true God is Jesus' prayer at John 17:3. And that is that the Father is the only true God.

    The Bible states there is one faith, does it identify it?

    The faith that leads to everlasting life belongs to God. Jesus himself in prayer to the Father: "Now this is eternal life, that they should know you, the only true God, and the one whom you sent, Jesus Christ." - John 17:3, NAB ('91).

    Understanding the Trinity.

    The scripture says Stephen saw the glory of God and and Jesus standing at the right hand of God. Since the Father is God alone [Jn 17:3], you are technically correct, but still misquoting the scripture. Acts 7:55 - "But he [Stephen], being full of the Holy Spirit, looked intently into heaven...

    The Case For The Triune GodHead!

    Scripture does not say "God was manifested in the flesh"! 1 Tim. 3:16 ("He who was manifest in the flesh") - most Bibles. 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...
