    "Medical errors claim over 250,000 American lives annually".

    Jack, like seeing a brakelite ahead of you on the highway, I'd like you to seriously listen for a moment and consider a different perspective... One that doesn't do damage to the scriptures, but more importantly, doesn't do damage to God's character. After seeing the brakelite, if you choose to...

    "Medical errors claim over 250,000 American lives annually".

    I drive a school bus. If I made a few occasional mistakes costing children's lives, how long do think my employment will remain secure?

    How did the Trinity doctrine develop in the early church?

    I'm not convinced that is correct. He came as a baby. A real, uneducated, uninformed child, who has to learn from scratch the same things we do. It was from Scripture, from studying prophecy, that He learned His true identity, and later confirmed by the Father at the baptism. Jesus was a student...

    How did the Trinity doctrine develop in the early church?

    And pre-existing does not of necessity mean eternal in the past. We cannot expect eternity in the past to be without "past present and future". It is altogether scripturally reasonable to understand the Soon as having been brought forth of the Father, not created because the Son came out from...

    How did the Trinity doctrine develop in the early church?

    So you deny that the Father created all things through the Son. So many scriptures that directly contradict such a proposal. But then, it seems we must expect that with Christadelphians.

    So God did not send a Son into the world?

    How did the Trinity doctrine develop in the early church?

    The cherubim that stood over the ark of the covenant represented real high ranking angels that had a specific task, yes. The entire sanctuary was a miniature copy of the true sanctuary in heaven. The ark was a miniature rendition of the throne of God, hence two cherubim guarding it and the...

    How did the Trinity doctrine develop in the early church?

    But a human was trying to steal the body of Moses and Michael was afraid to rebuke this human and asked God to do it instead?

    How did the Trinity doctrine develop in the early church?

    Anyone can understand the doctrine. Understanding man's teaching on any topic merely takes an education and time and a willingness to learn. But of what purpose is it to understand the doctrine? Ought we aspire more to understand God? It is the actual doctrine, the attempt to reduce the nature...

    How did the Trinity doctrine develop in the early church?

    He takes things purely literal when it suits him to do so, and symbolic when it suits. No consistency.

    And you're applying that to Jesus?

    How did the Trinity doctrine develop in the early church?

    Jude disagrees with you. “Yet Michael the archangel, when contending with the devil he disputed about the body of Moses, durst not bring against him a railing accusation, but said, The Lord rebuke thee. ” Jude 1:9 KJV https://www.unfeignedbible.app/Jude.1.9

    How did the Trinity doctrine develop in the early church?

    You insist that it solely a literal application, but fail in any attempt to attach any literal understanding to the king's presence in Eden or his role as a covering cherub.

    Breaking Through Churchianity Deadness

    Serving the community together. Working together in providing meals, fellowship, and medical help for those in the community in need. The homeless. The orphans. The widows. All the suggestions so far are about what can the church do for me. How about focusing on what we can do for our neighbors?

    Should you help the wicked and love those who hate the Lord? Because of this, wrath has gone out against you from the Lord.

    If I remember correctly, amigo showed approval of your posts that spoke of blasphemy in the building of a third temple. So there's no double standard.

    Should you help the wicked and love those who hate the Lord? Because of this, wrath has gone out against you from the Lord.

    So far, you may have forgotten that at least up to this point Amigo and Lisbeth had agreed with your points regarding the third temple and the potential blasphemous exercise, supported lock stock and barrel by American evangelical churches, of sacrificing animals in place of any recognition of...

    Should you help the wicked and love those who hate the Lord? Because of this, wrath has gone out against you from the Lord.

    @Chrysostomos The Vatican's goal to unite all the world's religions into one body is one of the greatest deceptions in human history. All of the major world religious leaders, without exception, recognise the Vatican, the Pope, as the default over all ruler of spiritual humanity. When they...

    Should you help the wicked and love those who hate the Lord? Because of this, wrath has gone out against you from the Lord.

    What you are missing is that prophetically, God Himself identities the Catholic institution as the Antichrist. You are arguing against the inspiration of the prophets. Principally Daniel, Paul, and John. And you are yet to ask why.

    Universalism is a dangerous doctrine

    When Jesus comes, He brings His reward with Him. Sinners die and the redeemed are taken as the Bride to meet the Father. The judgement has already taken place by the time the Lord returns else how else will the angels know who to take and who to leave behind?
