    THE Trinity can Now be discussed.

    Look to the sanctuary. Sins were confessed over, and transferred to the sacrificial victim. The priest, after eating a part of the victim, those were then transferred to the priest, who through the blood, transferred those sins into the sanctuary through the sprinkling of the blood before the...

    Why should we need to explain it? Who can explain the infinite? Even if God should explain it, what makes you think you would underhand it?

    THE Trinity can Now be discussed.

    The only reason Christ died was because He gave Himself up to His Father's will, and to death. The law only had power over Him negate He voluntarily accepted the responsibility for every sin and iniquity of mankind. He personally knew no sin nor did He have any proclivity or propensity toward...

    THE Trinity can Now be discussed.

    The dilemma is the mystery of the Godhead, and scripture does not explain it. Neither does scripture explain the nature of the holy Spirit. We tread roughly on holy ground when we attempt to define what revelation does not define.

    Where in the post you quoted did i suggest something different to what you wrote? For the record, (in case you've forgotten because I've said this many times) i believe Jesus is God. What else can the natural begotten ontological Son of God be, other than God begotten? Like begets like.

    why no beast (Antichrist) name nor false prophet name given

    Read post 40 again. And take away the preconceptions and assumptions before you do. They're is nothing in scripture demanding the antichrist be a Jew, or be anointed the King of Israel. It has nothing to do with the nation of Israel, it has nothing to do with a physical temple in Jerusalem...

    THE Trinity can Now be discussed.

    It is that unity part that i mainly have an issue with. Scripture does not tell us how that unity works. The councils which devised the creeds had to make certain assumptions in order to make the "one God " and the 3 persons harmonise. They had to make assumptions, and then create a...

    You don't need the trinity to believe Christ is God. You only need to believe He is God's ONLY BEGOTTEN SON.

    why no beast (Antichrist) name nor false prophet name given

    Carefully study the following. They are comparisons revealing the true from the counterfeit. Dragon/Satan. His place in heaven (Rev 12:3, 7, 8.) He has a throne. (Rev 13:2; 2:13) Gives throne, power, and authority to sea-beast. (13:2,4.) He is worshipped. (13:4a) Destroyed forever. (20:9,10)...

    I would like to add to this. It was discussed a little earlier, concerning the glory that Jesus said He had with the Father before the creation of the world. As i explained above, names in the Bible reflect character. The reason the Son of God appeared before Moses and proclaimed His name...

    THE Trinity can Now be discussed.

    Again, a word of advice, and thanks for accepting graciously my last. You are again descending into a mindset of denigration...Your brain is so sick on false dogma you cannot interpret the Story of the Bible for forcing your falsehood on it.... and...Wow the foolishness continue to come on...

    THE Trinity can Now be discussed.

    You ought be careful in denying Christ's pre-existence. God sent His Son. Therefore God had a Son to send. A uniquely begotten ontological offspring. Before creation. You say the trinity reduces the level of sacrifice. You say worse. You claim God created a human to overcome sin and die...

    “1 God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets, 2 Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds; 3 Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image...

    THE Trinity can Now be discussed.

    When someone in scripture was given a name, it didn't change the metaphysical nature of the person, but it did reflect the character and nature of the person. You are right. Peter didn't become a rock, or a pebble. But his character reflected that change of name. The same for Jacob. No...

    THE Trinity can Now be discussed.

    I don't classify myself as a trinitarian in the strict sense of the concept as fleshed out in the various creeds, and the countless versions since. However, I do believe there are 3 persons in the Godhead, Father, Son, and Spirit. How those 3 persons are united is not explained in scripture...

    THE Trinity can Now be discussed.

    Personally, I enjoy discussing all topics, particularly the Godhead, and I believe you do as well. A word of advice. If you want to continue discussing, I suggest you tone down the rhetoric and so-called "colorful terminology", for it was precisely that kind of expression that gave rise to the...

    Has the Leopard Changed its Spots?

    In 1209ad, Pope Innocent lll raised an army of Frenchmen to destroy the Albigenses of southern France. This was a holy war, a jihad, against what Rome perceived as a threat to her European power. Having taken over the town of Toulouse, they headed for Beziers. The town was populated by both...

    Harvard professors argue that America needs a 'militant democracy' to stop Trump

    I didn't actually get to finish my last post, got called away and I hit a posting button accidentally. So, those factors I was talking about were to a point, precisely what you said above. Nothing is a it seems. There are deceptions diversions, detours, misdirection and meaningless...

    Harvard professors argue that America needs a 'militant democracy' to stop Trump

    Oh if it were that simple. I agree that such would be the ideal, however, there are factors that have a significant impact on society
