* So much of what we read on social media doesn’t mean anything, but not everyone takes the time to thank us for reading it. *

Jesus preached the gospel. Why is that not included in your OP @Doug? Newbies need to hear Jesus preaching.

I received an email today from a group called Messianic Bible (biblesforisrael.com). They wanted to give me a ministry update. (I’m not connected in any way with this group but they are preparing a new Bible translation and I’ve signed up to receive of copy of the translation when it is finished...

* Time management, Medieval style.

* I think it’s beautiful how Santa gives the homeowner cash before he repairs her roof. What a guy! *

* Probably not ordering again from Mark. *

So does Jewish monotheism. The difference is in how Jewish monotheism can say that Jesus is God. (As I’ve mentioned and explained on numerous occasions.) He doesn’t, but just for the sake of discussion, let’s ignore that he said there are two, unequal, numerical Gods. Why do you think Justin...

@Scott Downey will you also agree with Tertullian? Does he represent your understanding of the doctrine of the Trinity? If he does, then please go on record and claim him. ”Tertullian the trinitarian.” Yes? No? Not sure?

Justin Martyr said there are two numerical Gods, with one of the Gods being superior to the other. That’s not Jewish monotheism. Jewish monotheism is able to express that Jesus is “God” without mixing in polytheism. Is it trinitarianism? Are you willing to make that same claim Justin made for...

@APAK, and to anyone else who will listen to my voice of and for Jewish monotheism. “So shall my word be that goes forth from my mouth; it shall not return to me empty, but shall do what pleases me, achieving the end for which I sent it.” (Isaiah 55:11, NABRE) The word that goes forth from...

How did the Church move from the Jewish monotheism of Jesus and the apostles (1st century) to the trinitarianism of Nicaea/Constantinople (4th century)? Having become predominantly gentile, it used the terminology of Greek philosophy to interpret and understand scripture that was written by...

Luther and Tyndale were both trinitarian. Neither of then were Jewish monotheists. Here comes the hound of Jewish monotheism: Jesus isn’t a trinitarian. Jesus is a Jewish monotheist. The apostles aren’t trinitarians. The apostles are Jewish monotheists. The primitive Christians aren’t...

You haven’t been able to distinguish the Genesis creation from the new creation. Jesus has a creative role in the new creation.

An accurate translation of the Greek in John’s prologue. Just like the history of the doctrine of the Trinity is. There is a cure for that ignorance but few care to take it. Beware of persons who make their own translations and aren’t able to read the biblical languages. That’s not why I...

Thanks. This is the first time I’ve ever seen their translation. It fits well with Tyndale and the other translatations that are like his. “It” obviously (maybe not so obviously to the average trinitarian) isn’t a unitarian bias. Trinitarian and non-trinitarian translators alike acknowledge and...

“In the begynngge was the worde, and the worde was wyth God; and God was the worde. The same was in the begynnyng wyth God. All things were made by it and without it was made nothynge was made. In it was lyfe …” (Great Bible, 1539) Your “worde” is you @Scott Downey. My “worde” is me. God’s...

@Scott Downey how many selfs is a person?

The Coverdale translation: “In the beginnynge was the worde, and the worde was with God, and God was the worde. The same was in the begynnynge. All thinges were made by the same, and without the same was made nothinge that was made. In him was the life, and the life was the light if men. And...

For those who might be interested: My Southern Baptist pastor. https://www.rosehillburialparks.com/obituaries/pastorcharles-stewart I moved away from Ashland but later moved back (my parents and my siblings never did) and resumed attending Rose Hill Baptist Church. It was there and at that...
