    A Curious Question For Non-Trinitarians

    Jesus has not been human since his resurrection. He cannot take back that which he sacrificed for the redemption of mankind. Likewise, as Christians, following in Jesus' footsteps, we sacrifice our lives and we will be resurrected as spirit beings, having the same divine nature as Jesus now...

    A Curious Question For Non-Trinitarians

    Jesus, like all other living beings, only had one nature at a time. He was a spirit being, the only begotten Son of God, but he was mortal (he could die, whereas God is immortal [1 Timothy 6:16] and cannot die). Then God changed Jesus' nature to be human, and human only. When God resurrected...

    A Curious Question For Non-Trinitarians

    Why do you keep being so insulting and accusing to anyone who doesn't agree with your interpretation of the Bible? You're not showing Christian love, you're displaying the spirit of Satan - Revelation 12:10 (WEB): (10) I heard a loud voice in heaven, saying, “Now the salvation, the power, and...

    A Curious Question For Non-Trinitarians

    If Scripture seems to contradict itself then we should think that we must have misunderstood part of it. In the case of Titus 2:13 (WEB): (13) looking for the blessed hope and appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ; you have understood it to mean that Jesus is both...

    Christians are not under the New Covenant

    However, it was conditional on the Israelites keeping their side of the covenant - Exodus 19:5-6 (WEB): (5) Now therefore, if you will indeed obey my voice, and keep my covenant, then you shall be my own possession from among all peoples; for all the earth is mine; (6) and you shall be to me...

    A Curious Question For Non-Trinitarians

    You're still not listening to what Jesus said! John 17:3 (WEB): (3) This is eternal life, that they should know you, the only true God, and him whom you sent, Jesus Christ. Our Father (and Jesus' Father) is the only true God. Clear and simple. Believe Jesus! John 8:43-47 (WEB): (43) Why...

    Christians are not under the New Covenant

    Okay, if you don't like the term "Law Covenant" then instead use the term "Mosaic Covenant" or "Sinaitic Covenant", or "Sinaitic Law Covenant" as I referred to it as in my original post. From Wikipedia: The Mosaic covenant (named after Moses), also known as the Sinaitic covenant (named after...

    A Curious Question For Non-Trinitarians

    Repeating those Scriptures: Deuteronomy 18:19 (WEB): (19) It shall happen, that whoever will not listen to my words which he shall speak in my name, I will require it of him. Acts 3:22-23 (WEB): (22) For Moses indeed said to the fathers, ‘The Lord God will raise up a prophet for you from...

    Christians are not under the New Covenant

    Galations 3:16-19 (ASV): (16) Now to Abraham were the promises spoken, and to his seed. He saith not, And to seeds, as of many; but as of one, And to thy seed, which is Christ. (17) Now this I say: A covenant confirmed beforehand by God, the law, which came four hundred and thirty years after...

    A Curious Question For Non-Trinitarians

    It's "Lord Jesus", it's never printed as "LORD Jesus". The Old Testament Scriptures referring to Jesus are the verses referring to the promised Messiah, e.g. Daniel 9:25 (KJV): (25) Know therefore and understand, that from the going forth of the commandment to restore and to build Jerusalem...

    A Curious Question For Non-Trinitarians

    Indeed, read John 5! Remove the Trinity tinted spectacles and see if you can spot the real truth! John 5:19-29 (WEB): (19) Jesus therefore answered them, “Most certainly, I tell you, the Son can do nothing of himself, but what he sees the Father doing. For whatever things he does, these the...

    A Curious Question For Non-Trinitarians

    You said Jesus was God, and God cannot die, therefore you cannot believe that Jesus died. Believing that Jesus is God only leads to confusion, because it is not in harmony with the Scriptures.

    A Curious Question For Non-Trinitarians

    I have already been saved. Studying the Scriptures helps us to "properly handle the Word of Truth". 2 Timothy 2:15-26 (WEB): (15) Give diligence to present yourself approved by God, a workman who doesn’t need to be ashamed, properly handling the Word of Truth. (16) But shun empty chatter...

    A Curious Question For Non-Trinitarians

    There is no threesome in that sentence! There's just God and an unspecified number of other persons that God is talking to. It is illogical to deduce three persons are referred to in that sentence. So Jesus was with God, then he came to live on the Earth (sent from God), and later he returned...

    A Curious Question For Non-Trinitarians

    Jesus said, John 4:24 (KJV): (24) God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth. He did not say "God is three spirits".

    A Curious Question For Non-Trinitarians

    Luke 6:12 (WEB): (12) In these days, he went out to the mountain to pray, and he continued all night in prayer to God. Luke 4:8 (WEB): (8) Jesus answered him, “Get behind me Satan! For it is written, ‘You shall worship the Lord your God, and you shall serve him only.’” where Jesus was quoting...

    A Curious Question For Non-Trinitarians

    No, that commandment says "You shall have no other gods before me", i.e. you shall have no other gods that you consider to be greater than YHWH, or above or in front of YHWH. Believing that Jesus is YHWH's son who now has the same divine nature as YHWH, and that YHWH has given Jesus all...

    A Curious Question For Non-Trinitarians

    A small point - it was Paul, not Timothy, who wrote that. 1 Timothy is a letter from Paul to Timothy. Here's another verse confirming Jesus was dead - Romans 1:3-4 (WEB): (3) concerning his Son, who was born of the offspring of David according to the flesh, (4) who was declared to be the...

    A Curious Question For Non-Trinitarians

    And Jesus replied, John 8:25 (WEB), "Just what I have been saying to you from the beginning". And what had he been saying? Had he said "I am God" or "I am YHWH"? No. He had been saying that he was the Son of God. John the baptist testified that Jesus was the Son of God (John 1:34); demons...

    A Curious Question For Non-Trinitarians

    Where did you read that? Jesus' Hebrew name is Yeshua, or Yehoshua/Jehoshua and it means "YHWH saved" or "YHWH is salvation" according to Strong's and the Online Bible Greek Lexicon. From the Wikipedia article for Yeshua: The name יֵשׁוּעַ, Yeshua (transliterated in the English Old Testament...
