Sad for the HS, JC, JW's and me too. Go back and look, I am not going to repeat many pages. It is my opinion that the Holy Spirit is grieved? Tell me, how can a force be grieved? You must have feelings to grieve. Feelings are generated from thoughts and therefore the Spirit has a mind, will and...

I never said you or anyone else was saved or not. I just said it was sad that you weren't and couldn't be sure of your salvation. Jesus will judge those who do not put their faith in Him. Don't you? You believe He died for your sins and rose on the third day according to the scriptures. You...

Are these scholars, any of the possibly thousands of experts who have actually translated any English version Bibles? I have about 60 versions here that all say the same thing. The Father says "to", or "about" or "in regards to" the His Son, "Your throne O God is forever and ever" or some that...

I think you misunderstand me. I didn't cast a vote, that was a tongue in cheek comment. If you looked at #109, I just bowed out of any further conversation with Pierac. I chose a different direction at the fork in the road that we arrived at. Seriously, If I was in a 2% minority in the...

The Father, Son and Holy Spirit planned this event before the foundation the world. God orchestrated the death and resurrection of Jesus. Jesus laid down His life willingly, the Pharisees were set up, Judas even Satan. It was prophesied. So you again do not have the correct perspective. You are...

The Father, Son and Holy Spirit ... in whom we are to be baptized in the name of.

Actually there is about 1/3, 2.65 Billion If we include everyone else, that makes your numbers even more miniscule.

Yes, I just motioned to do just that in #109.

Fyi, only God can take away the sins if the world. That requires an All Mighty God, omniscient, omnipresent amd omnipotent.

No, I am afraid we met our fork in the road, I'll just tip my hat to you and be on my way. May God bless you on your journey.

If the Trinity rested on one or a few scriptures, your dounts may he justified. Every person needs to be certain of his own faith, how he received it, from Whom and to rest in that peace and security given. May God be merciful on us all for our errors.

I'll tell what inspired me to write a book. I was invited to A Jehovah Witness Convention years ago by a dear family member. Thought I would just please her and see what they had to say. I had a notepad with me. They started the teaching about the Holy Spirit and wow, I was filled with the...

It is sad to see others struggle with the meaning of scripture, in denial and resistant of the truth. They take simple words and phrases, and search the archives for something to support their view and present it as a sophomoric paper, feeling justified they have discovered it. Yet truth is...

Wow you know how to find every other possible meaning but the correct one. You lean on your own understanding. It is as if I am reading something from the Jesus Seminar. Well, you can choose to be a non-trinitarian of which may only amount to 2 -3 % of 2.65 billion Christians. If 97% of the...

That is the Son of God speaking. He is our Mediator, the Word, expression of God to man. Rev. 1:8, 11 &13 confirm that the Alpha and Omega is Jesus. In vs. 18 He says "I am He who lives and I was dead and behold I am alive for evermore." Our Lord and Savior throughout the OT is the...

God became a man who was filled with the Holy Spirit. Christ lived among men and died for our sins and rose. He is worthy to be worshipped. But I also think that He is also tangible, the perfect illumination and image of God and so by our worship of Christ we also indirectly worship the Father...

This is a great observation, I never focused too much attention on those creeds. I would have to disagree with all concerning that one statement. We just probably need to insert Elohim as the creator, since all three were in involved. How did they miss Col. 1:16, 17? And then in the beggining...

Jesus is the God/Man. God emptied Himself into a human. He relinquished His glory, temporarily. It is understandable that you cannot grasp this concept. Jesus knew that man would have a difficult time doing so: "who, though he was in the form of God, did not regard equality with God as...

The Trinity The concept of a Triune God is the only God that makes sense. Before creation, God, being love and excellent in every way requires a consent and a relationship of more than one person. God is Love, but Love is not static, it requires expression and movement outside of the person...

Jonah's body was in the fish, so a time lapse comparison is made. But the scripture describes Jonah's soul crying out from the depth of Sheol, "the roots of the mountains" ... " the earth with its bars around me". Sounds like the gates of Hades to me, not the inside of a fish.
