    How do you respond to "Christians are hypocrites"?

    The central core of Christ's message is not about "trying again". It is about being cleansed and made new, being regenerated as a new creature in Christ. Being born again is not the same thing as turning over a new leaf. It has to do with being washed in the blood of the Lamb, and filled with...

    How do you respond to "Christians are hypocrites"?

    People who profess Christ are not our example that we are to follow...Jesus is. On the other hand, we need to live lives before our friends and acquaintances that shows them that not every Christian is a hypocrite...the best way to deal with this objection is to seek to live a godly life...

    Trinity vs. Tritheism: Understanding the Trinity.

    Act 24:14, But this I confess unto thee, that after the way which they call heresy, so worship I the God of my fathers, believing all things which are written in the law and in the prophets: I know at the very center of my heart that I believe in what the Bible teaches, which doctrine is the...

    Trinity vs. Tritheism: Understanding the Trinity.

    I do not know what label is attachable to the biblical study of the doctrine of the Trinity that was done in posts #1-#4 of this thread; but I stand by that teaching because I know that it is biblical. shortcut: Trinity II

    Trinity vs. Tritheism: Understanding the Trinity.

    I suppose you think this means that if you are in the church, you will win every argument and will have the last word in every argument. While the first may actually be true (and you have not won any arguments here) the fact that I am giving you the last word in all reality means that I am the...

    Trinity vs. Tritheism: Understanding the Trinity.

    To conclude that I believe in oneness from this is to jump to conclusions. I do believe in a distinction between the members of the Godhead; however I emphasize their Oneness for the most part in order to fight against the heresy of Tritheism (which, I think, is secretly believed in by @Dave...

    Trinity vs. Tritheism: Understanding the Trinity.

    I think I will resolve to give @Dave L the last word here, without conceding that he is right in any way. Otherwise we are just going to argue in circles. I have answered his most recent statements previously within this thread.

    Trinity vs. Tritheism: Understanding the Trinity.

    @Dave L, you claim that I have the spirit of Antichrist; and yet in this very thread I gave you something like four or five opportunities to confess that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh and you would not and did not do it. This would indicate that you have three fingers pointing back at you.

    Trinity vs. Tritheism: Understanding the Trinity.

    Roe v. Wade had the decision that it did because of, and even for this reason: all the facts were not presented when they made the decision to allow abortions. If the decision had been made today, with the information available that we have concerning how the person in the womb is a living...

    Trinity vs. Tritheism: Understanding the Trinity.

    First of all, we are going in circles. Secondly, I cannot have the spirit of Antichrist because I have done what it takes to receive the Holy Ghost (the Spirit of the Lord); and the Lord is not going to give a scorpion to someone who asks for, or does what it takes to receive, an egg. Thirdly...

    Trinity vs. Tritheism: Understanding the Trinity.

    And you are ignoring the clear testimony of scripture. Also, if we ask for, and/or do what it takes to receive, an fish, the Lord is not going to give us a serpent. Therefore the god you believe in is capricious, like the god of the Muslims, in that he would give a scorpion to someone who...

    Trinity vs. Tritheism: Understanding the Trinity.

    Well, now, you have just agreed that Jesus is the Father! For there is one Lord: Eph 4:5, One Lord, one faith, one baptism, 1Co 8:6, But to us there is but one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we in him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom are all things, and we by him. In saying...

    Trinity vs. Tritheism: Understanding the Trinity.

    Mat 11:25, At that time Jesus answered and said, I thank thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because thou hast hid these things from the wise and prudent, and hast revealed them unto babes. Luk 10:21, In that hour Jesus rejoiced in spirit, and said, I thank thee, O Father, Lord of heaven...

    FOODS ACCEPTABLE TO GOD AND GOOD NUTRITION ACCORDING TO THE SCRIPTURES

    I've heard that it isn't only the iron in meat that prevents anemia.

    FOODS ACCEPTABLE TO GOD AND GOOD NUTRITION ACCORDING TO THE SCRIPTURES

    It is healthier to eat meat than to be strictly vegetarian. Prevents anemia.

    Trinity vs. Tritheism: Understanding the Trinity.

    @Taken said: And that is also not what I have said took place. It was a Divine act of creation in which the Holy Ghost became the God-part of the zygote that developed from the egg in the womb of the virgin Mary. God did not create a "God-sperm" per se; but He caused the woman to have a seed...

    Trinity vs. Tritheism: Understanding the Trinity.

    Of these posts, only in #892 and #904 is it not clear who I was speaking to; and in both of those cases my intended audience was everyone. Just look at each post a little bit harder.

    Trinity vs. Tritheism: Understanding the Trinity.

    Not normally: which would make what is mentioned in Isaiah 7:14 and Genesis 3:15 a miraculous event.
