Why do you believe all those old Bible commentators and not any current Bible commentators who say the Trinity doctrine is not supported by the Bible? The Bible is our only reliable written source of God's word, so we need to read, understand and believe that (while carefully checking for...

Who is that directed at? Was it directed at me? I don't understand the point that you're trying to make. Mark 16:15) He said to them, “Go into all the world, and preach the Good News to the whole creation. Mark 16:16) He who believes and is baptized will be saved; but he who disbelieves...

But the later addition of 1 John 5:7 is not Scripture! If I was to write in your Bible, "Jesus was a lizard", would you believe it? Somebody inserted words into 1 John 5:7 hundreds of years after John wrote it - it is not Scripture, as most Bible translations acknowledge. It has been known...

Am I the only person who thinks it strange that Isaiah 7:14 and Matthew 1:23 implies that the virgin mother shall call Jesus Immanuel, whereas there is no verse in the New Testament that records anyone ever calling Jesus Immanuel? The angel told Mary and Joseph to call the child Jehoshua...

So why were you addressing that in reply to my post about God removing His Spirit from Jesus on the cross? You're just confusing everybody and wasting everybody's time (especially mine). We were discussing whether or not Jesus had God's Holy Spirit upon/in him from his birth, or from his...

Once again, what has Jesus being a servant who came from the Father (God) have to do with God removing His Spirit from Jesus when Jesus was on the cross? What has any of what you've written have to do with that? You're like a politician - ask them a question and they'll ignore the question and...

What? :confused: There's no mention of sin in 1 John 5:7. It's all about bearing witness to Jesus being God's son.

You should know better than to quote probably the most infamous spurious verse in the Bible - which is acknowledged to have been a much later addition. It should be (WEB): 7) For there are three who testify: 8) the Spirit, the water, and the blood; and the three agree as one. As the...

Jesus was never fully divine and fully man at the same time. When he was a man he was merely a man, just like us - no more and no less - except that he was not born with a sinful nature: Romans 8:3) ... God did, sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh and for sin, he condemned sin...

What has Jesus being a servant who came from the Father (God) have to do with God removing His Spirit from Jesus when Jesus was on the cross? If you think you know something which I and others don't, why don't you explain it to us and share your knowledge/ideas. Just making a terse seemingly...

I fail to understand why you would say that, or what bearing it has on the discussion! Most likely he was at home with his Father. Why do you ask?

The same Greek word (pempo) is in both cases translated as send. I don't understand why you said "same word is used, it does not say pour forth there". In the John verses that I quoted we have Jesus saying that God will send His Holy Spirit in Jesus' name, and that Jesus will send God's Holy...

What? I never said that the Holy Spirit was lying to Peter!

So you think that it is logical that God's only begotten son is in fact God Himself? That is not logical!

Eh? What word are you talking about? If the "breath of life" was removed then Jesus would have been dead, in which case he could not have spoken the words "My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?". Jesus went on to say other things after this - “I thirst” (John 19:28); “It is finished”...

You're imposing your belief that there are three persons in God onto this. God is a spirit (John 4:24), and He is holy. The working of His Holy Spirit is God (our heavenly Father) working. Acts 4: 32) The multitude of those who believed were of one heart and soul. Not one of them claimed...

Have you considered that there might be more than two columns?

I notice that you didn't quote any Scriptures, just saying Luke 1. I don't see any references in that chapter which imply that Jesus had God's Holy Spirit upon or in him. In chapter 2, verse 40, it says, "The child was growing, and was becoming strong in spirit, being filled with wisdom, and...

I referenced Acts 2:33 in support of the last part of the sentence ("in order that..."). Acts 2 (WEB): 32) This Jesus God raised up, to which we all are witnesses. 33) Being therefore exalted by the right hand of God, and having received from the Father the promise of the Holy Spirit, he has...

I didn't say it proved that Jesus did not have the Holy Spirit before his resurrection. I was just pointing out some relevant verses of Scripture. At his baptism, Matthew 3:16 (WEB): Jesus, when he was baptized, went up directly from the water: and behold, the heavens were opened to him. He...
