    True Trinity.

    Personal names (including 'Immanuel') Many trinitarians will tell you that, since the personal name “Jesus” (probably “Yehoshua” in Hebrew) means “Jehovah is Salvation” (or “Jehovah Saves”), then Jesus is Jehovah. If that were true, then all the other people in the Bible whose names had that...

    True Trinity.

    "The only name of God is Jesus"?? Then how is it that one who is God alone declares His name to be YHWH hundreds of times in the OT? And His followers call his name YHWH thousands of times in the OT? YHWH is not the Hebrew word for 'Lord' (ADN) and is clearly mistranslated as 'LORD' thousands...

    Christianity Defined

    soul man in the OP said: "Rightly so, but you have to seperate [sic] Old and New because He was not father to any in the Old Testament." .................................... Jehovah is the Father: Is. 63:16; 64:8; Deut. 32:6; Ps. 89:26; Jer. 3:1, 4; 31:7, 9, ASV. Even many personal names of...

    Jesus is God in the Flesh!!

    Is. 45:11 is speaking of YHWH (LORD/Jehovah) as the creator of Israel: Is. 45:11 - "The LORD is the Holy One of Israel. He made them. He says to them," NIRV. "This is what the LORD says— the Holy One of Israel, and its Maker:" - NIV, Cf. AT; CSB; CEB; CEV; ERV; EHV; EXB; HCSB; LEB; Moffatt...

    The Trinity is NO lie.

    Isaiah 9:6 All Christians, I believe, accept the son of Is. 9:6 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 Father.” But there are at least two other ways...

    Jesus is God in the Flesh!!

    1. Jn 10:30 The Father and I are one. [See John 17:1, 3. Then see John 17:21, 22.] 2. Philippians 2:5-6 You must have the same attitude that Christ Jesus had. Though he was God, he did not think of equality with God as something to cling [harpagmos] to. [The New American Standard Concordance...

    The Trinity is NO lie.

    JBF wrote: "Here it is important to make a distinction between Kurios and kurios. When the word is not capitalized, it may indeed refer to anyone in authority. But when it is capitalized, it is referring to that one who is in ultimate authority, Jesus Christ, even the Father."...

    The Trinity is NO lie.

    Kurios ('lord') is used as a title for anyone in authority, whether slaves to masters, wives to husbands, etc. Thayer admits the same: b. κύριος is a title of honor, expressive of respect and reverence, with which servants salute their master, Matthew 13:27; Matthew 25:20, 22; Luke 13:8; Luke...

    The Trinity is NO lie.

    There are 2 major uncertainties about the proper translation of Acts 20:28. Either one of those uncertainties completely nullifies any trinitarian "proof" proposed for this scripture! First, even some trinitarian Bibles translate this verse, "the church of the Lord." - NEB; REB; ASV; Moffatt...

    The Trinity is NO lie.

    Isaiah 9:6 (part 2) Another way competent Bible scholars have interpreted the meaning of this name is with the understanding that it (as with many, if not most, of the other Israelites’ personal names) does not apply directly to the person having the name (e.g., “Elijah” ("God Jehovah")...

    The Trinity is NO lie.

    Isaiah 9:6 (part 1) Many (but not all) trinitarians will tell you that Is. 9:6 proves that Jesus is God. Is. 9:6 says – “For a child will be born to us, a son will be given to us; and the government will rest on His shoulders; and His name shall be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God...

    Trinity vs. Tritheism: Understanding the Trinity.

    Isaiah 48:16 Isaiah, like most other Bible writers, often interspersed the conversation of one person with statements by others and often doesn't identify the new speakers. Very often they appear to be comments by Isaiah himself. That this is very likely the case here is shown, not only by...

    Trinity vs. Tritheism: Understanding the Trinity.

    Trinity vs. Tritheism: 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, Beck, Rotherham, Lamsa. This is interpreted by many...

    John 1:1 "let scripture interpret scripture!"

    But Barney, it is a well-known fact that YHWH has been removed from all existing manuscripts of the NT. It only exists in personal names (Elijah, Abijah, etc.) and in compound words (hallelujah meaning 'praise Jehovah' as found in Rev. 19 for example). So, naturally it is not found in John...
