Now, go ahead and send us names of anyone who holds to your view. I guarantee you will not find one evangelical scholar. You are not nearly trained well enough to understand as well as scholars. That much is obvious. This is not one position against another, but one position against sheer...

I don't know of any evangelical scholar who believes in three Gods. There are 3 Members of the ONE Godhead. All are co-equal in every way. Those who believe in the Trinity believe in 3 Gods. I don't hold that. You forgot to provide us with the names of scholars who hold to Modalism. How about...

Actually, it is the case for all those who buy into the Literal Method of Interpretation. Those who take the scriptures, as a rule, symbolically, will not see passages that mention 3 Members of the Godhead. They have made a prior commitment to the view that there is only 1 Member of the...

Okay, so we can conclude that the Son of God is a god? How much reverence should we give this second god? You see the problem, and why Nicea had to happen? You have described the god of Muslims. In eternity past god was not a relational being. Since there was numerically only one god. He lived...

This is a very unwise position to hold. When you embrace Modalism, a belief deemed heretical, you put yourself above the Scriptures. I am not aware of any evangelical scholar who holds this view. Who teaches this view that you know of? Just Curious

This is modalism. It was deemed heretical with the early church. There are 3 separate Beings in the Godhead. Jesus did not have 2 wills, 2 intellects, etc. He had only the divine attributes, not the human. That is why Paul says that Christ came in the likeness of man.

Faith in and Love toward – very short If Jesus claimed the honor due God, we would expect to find the Bible explicitly according him most, if not all, of the forms of honor that it accords to God. We already have seen that the Bible teaches us to honor Jesus by glorifying him, by worshiping...

Of course, multi universes still need a creator for all of them. You are right, not a shred of evidence. Not to mention that such a thought only brings irrationality into the discussion.

Yes, the Godhead is composed of 3 Persons. The reason this is not polytheism (to anticipate babes in Christ) is because Members of the Godhead have identical natures. For example, The Father possesses a perfect, infinite degree of love. Likewise, the Son has love to an infinite degree. In this...

Subordinationism is a heresy today as it was back in early Church. It makes a travesty out of the fundamental clarity of Scripture.

This is a heretical teaching and is in contradiction to the doctrine of the Trinity. It states that God the Son is subordinate to the Father. Some added the subordination includes the Holy Spirit below the Son. Subordinationism was officially condemned as heresy at the Second Council of...

Wrangler, it is hard to take you seriously based on your response above. Do you have any idea what the Trinity is? We don't pray to Jesus or to the Holy Spirit, just to the Father.

Can you tell me where I reject Christ's teachings.

Sorry Wrangler, I have absolutely no idea what you are saying.

Worship of Christ After it is made clear in Matthew that Jesus regarded God as the only proper object of worship (proskuneo), it is striking that Jesus appears so frequently in the same Gospel to be the object of worship (2:2, 11; 8:2; 9:18; 14:33; 15:25; 20:20; 28:9, 17), even if in the...

Deity of Christ, Part 1 (The Cumulative Argument) I am going to present 5 reasons for the deity of Christ in this and the next several posts. I will try to keep them short since mm in this forum don’t want to read more than a page or two. The first topic we will look at is the HONOR Jesus is...

The dead in Christ and those who are alive... What tha?

The hINA + the Subjunctive has several uses, but mostly to express result or purpose, and it substitutes for the future tense. I presume your are not a serious Greek student. Not sure where you got the idea of "may" indicates discretion. And your rendition "He can have mercy on, but does not..."...

Note this in Rom 11.32 For God has bound everyone over to disobedience so that he may have mercy on them all.

I don't agree with this statement at all. Especially your use of "non-elect." You use this term as if it were a reference to salvation. Here is an answer with Got Questions: Simply put, the doctrine of election is that God chooses/determines/elects/predestines who will be saved. Just to justify...
