Well in a sense you are right. The word Trinity <trinitas> was used, pretty early on but without a concise definition. The one God formula came out of the Ecumenical Councils and it was not about accuracy or the truth it was about a fix all answer to stop the disagreements, the whole one belief...

Let me fill you in on a few things….Back a few years ago I was asked by a friend of mine that ran Recovery Ranches for Youth to work with interventionists to save women and children from cults. Most of the cults in our area are Jehovah’s Witnesses other than that just really stupid and twisted...

Like I said, not going to beat my head up against a wall. Get out of that evil religion....

I am not going to beat my head up against the wall on this. Go ahead and be a do nothing. While they kill 600,000 babies a year. Be a do nothing. While they teach our young that God does not exist. Be a do nothing. While they teach our young that Homosexuality is just an alternate lifestyle. Be...

I understand that….they can convert. Do you understand why they did not accept Him as their Messiah? You are not going to know….it is pretty much a college course. I told you I understand pacifism. Tell you what….during the next conflict….don’t hide behind the military….love your enemies…...

Covenants that God makes are well defined, because they affect so many. They do not come and go in secret. If the Covenant ended it would say that clearly in the scriptures. You are reading something into it that is in your head. There is nothing wrong with having a belief that is not clearly...

You are probably taking about Hebrews….what is old and obsolete is passing away. Again people cannot make or discontinue covenants, or create the world or provide salvation….it is kind of a God thing. 70 AD with the destruction of the Temple and end of the sacrifices. Correct. But that did not...

Thanks for sharing.

Oh no slavery was an essential part of the economic system and even social structure in ancient times….look it up. Slavery in the south was a different story….a long story.

Maybe for the same reason that God told kings not to have too many wives….they can be a distraction.

You like the whole domination of women thing…. Total disregard to the scripture that says that to God that there was no male or female… There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is neither male nor female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus. And if you are...

I get what you are saying. And it was true at the time, so was slavery. It was not the time to change these things. Stopping slavery at that time would have destroyed the whole economic system. But I think I understand that you think that Christianity is a static religion. You could not be more...

Friend....I am not condemning you. Just trying to understand you.

Back to the Bible…. Does that mean don’t worry about wedding ceremonies and back to polygamy and concubinage and having slaves.

Truth… Pontius Pilate asked Christ that same question. What is your truth? Christianity changed even in the Bible and it continued to change to require marriage ceremonies and get rid of polygamy and concubinage and father’s control of his daughters. Tell me what you think the truth is?

What are you calling the true church? The Jewish-Christians or the Gentile-Christians? There has never been one belief in Christianity. The Catholics tried that and it lead them down a dark path. At the time of the Ecumenical Councils in the 4th century Christian beliefs varied widely. That was...

I know what the Paul said….Be nice to them and to God there is no difference between male and female….But he also said.. But I want you to understand that Christ is the head of every man, and the man is the head of a woman, and God is the head of Christ. 1st Corinthians 11:3 It was a different...

I want to understand you but you have been doing this for years, you seem to be talking in circles. Break it down to exactly what you are trying to say by topic. And don’t worry about Pope Francis most Christians do not care what he says….heck most Catholics do not care what he says. The...

Yea I said a form of female slavery….they were owned and would be killed if they ran off. It is no secret that women were handled as property in the Old Testament and part of the New Testament until around the Middle Ages. Wives were bought from their fathers and fathers could sell their...

Greetings friend.... But you are not thinking enough. This is very simple. In Old Testament men took wives and that was how it was done, simple as that. No ceremony required. And Wedding Ceremonies being made a requirement by the Protestants in the 16th century is just history. The fact that...
