I do understand, David. I did as well...at one time. There are many who see PST in Scripture and many who do not. My point is that if it were as plainly stated as the divinity of Christ it probably would have enjoyed a more popular adherence among Christians. That's all. We all have our...

You have probably been the strongest advocate for censorship over the past two months on this forum. Either you try to censor others by reporting them or by slander and discrediting them so others will not consider their words. Censorship is censorship and you are the censorship king. :rolleyes:

No. They do not use those words. But as the author of Hebrews notes, it is explicitly stated. Do you see the difference I'm driving at? Without commentary one can see that Jesus is God (the Word was with God and the Word was God). The only disagreement with John 1:1 is whether or not the Word...

I never said you used the word "censorship". But this is not the first time you asked that someone be censored nonetheless.

Here are a few - John 1:1, John 10:30, John 12:45. Show me a verse that, in this same way, states that God punished Jesus instead of punishing us.

I actually mean "they". @Anthony D'Arienzo stated the same concern you expressed. What made Anthony's statement a false accusation was that he accused me (and reported me, although he denies ever requesting censorship) for claiming he denies the divinity of Christ. This is why Anthony is...

I think we are talking past each other. I know what you mean, David, but I disagree. PST is not represented in the text of Scripture like the divinity of Christ is represented.

No. That is not my litmus test. Scripture was written in Hebrew and Greek. I do not even require the statements to be in one place or use the exact words. But I do expect the words to be in the actuak text and not just implied.

Did you even bother to read the post before making that accusation??? Read it again, Anthony. Does it say you deny the divinity of Christ? Or does it say you and David have claimed Scripture does not state the divinity of Christ? Those are two VERY different things. You stated that yhe...

I stand by my claim. You indicated that you do not believe the text of Scripture states Jesus is God. You believe Scripture teaches it, but you claim it is not stated in the text itself. But here @Anthony D'Arienzo has interpreted our disagreement as me stating Anthony denies the diviniry of...

Don't sound so excited, David :p .

I did not delete a post accusing you of denying the divinity of Christ. You have confused what I said about @David Taylor (I said that he did not believe Scripture stated Jesus is God) as being directed to you. Even here I am not claiming David rejects the divinity of Christ. This is not the...

I agree.

No. But sometimes I do wonder how I would fair if tested. It is easy to say what we would do when not in a situation to stand for our faith. Do I love myself more than others? No. But would I forefit my own life for a stranger? I do not know. I served as a combat engineer and was in many...

I did almost the same. I attended a few colleges and almost completed a degree several times. I was active duty military and had a B.A. I completed the same program via the online format. Loved the coursework.

No. I knew you went to Liberty and had a M.A.T.S.. I thought you were the one who sold insurance and worked as a minister (I use "pastor" for the pastor of a congregation - not as a slight but because I believe that its correct use). I have never pastored a church either. I work with the...

I thought so. I was not sure if it was you or another guy from the BB (we all have the same degree from Liberty). Did you attend on campus (if so, what year)?

Kid. :p

First you copy and paste me claiming you denied the divinity of Christ. You are making false accusations again. I said "If you mean Calvinism and Buddhism are the gospel insofar as it aligns with Scripture you would still be wrong. Scripture itself (as a whole) is not the gospel message. The...

He has slandered me since arriving (look at the thread where he trolled me using my name in the title in a failed attempt to discredit me). But it does not matter if we are pastors, preachers, or truck drivers. Christians have no business slandering other Christians.
