“Theology relates to every area of your life.” - Howard Hendricks

* Tomorrow’s another day and maybe another dress. Death has been conquered and I’m a resurrection man. *

I’m a Jewish monotheist. John is a Jewish monotheist. The history of the doctrine of the Trinity is easy to trace. Yes. Jewish monotheism. It’s such an elementary historical point that it’s a concession by trinitarian scholars. I quoted J.A.T. Robinson as an example. That’s a trinitarian...

I interpret all scripture with the eyes and mind of Jewish monotheism. The entire Bible is written by Jewish monotheists. Interpreting with the eyes and mind of a Jewish monotheist is consistent and reasonable, I would say. You interpret the same scripture but with the eyes and mind of a...

* One beat off from the Batter Dance. *

* And blow she did; setting back de-scenting research a decade. Johnson, however, would go on to become the 36th President of the United States. *

* Poor crazy guy. Even at death’s door, all he wanted to do was feed his paranoid goldfish one last time. *

* The circle of life with a slow leak. *

I already have. In fact, I’ve done so in conversation with you multiple times in multiple threads over the past few days. My only purpose for even mentioning it in this thread was to alert newbies to it.

No. The primitive Christians didn’t know anything about the doctrine of the Trinity. They didn’t change John’s Gospel in any way. Fortman does a good job of explaining how we came to have the doctrine of the Trinity. No one changed the Gospel of John (or any other of the New Testament or Old...

Thank you. I won a bet. The only God John believes in is the Messiah’s God: one person, the Father. There were no trinitarians in biblical history. The history of doctrine of the Trinity is post-biblical. “John the trinitarian” isn’t an historical figure; “John the Jewish monotheist” is.

The primitive Christians were Jewish monotheists. The gospel of John is written by a Jewish monotheist. The only God in Jewish monotheism is the Messiah’s God. Christianity gradually departed from the faith of the primitive Christians. That’s the history that I’ve been discussing.

A suggestion to newbies: use a Concordance to look up the phrase -> “the gospel of God”. Scripture doesn’t speak about -> “the gospels of God”. There is only one gospel. Anyone who preaches or teaches “another gospel / a different gospel” is preaching and teaching a false gospel and is...

I would stress to newbies that there is only one gospel and only one kingdom. The Messiah and all of the apostles preached it. Dispensationalism doesn’t recognize the shorthand used in scripture for the one gospel.

* This is Stokey the Bear. (Rumored to be Smokey the Bear’s brother, hypnotized by Snidely Whiplash.) * * The US Forest Service was not amused, but I was. *

* The x-ray don’t lie. *

* The key was not getting distracted by those who worked it out another way. *
