I think you're incapable of having a serious discussion. I think you're unable to support your view. Just stop writing to me and wasting my little time on here. You have NOTHING of substance to say. What fallacy is that?

Hi Mary This is how I feel right now,,,

It doesn't. So why is it a sin? And how about answering my entire post instead of choosing what you like and how about backing up your statements as I do. Otherwise it's just your opinion and our personal opinions are of no value .

Because Backlit It's your beliefs that make you a Christian. The early creeds were written to combat heresies Or there would be NO CHRISTIANITY by now. It would have died out a long time ago. In fact, just a couple of hundred years after Jesus' death. For example, if you believe in...

Does the bible state that we should not put drugs into our body?

I admire the time and work you put into your posts.

I don't believe you ever answered the above. I'd be interested in knowing what or who you believe Jesus to be. You did answer that words have meaning and quoted John 3:16 where the word BEGOTTEN is used. I replied on my post just before this one. Could you answer the first part? Thanks.

I accept that you do not believe in the Trinity. I'm not here to convince you that it is true. Those reading along will make up their own minds. The word begotten does not mean made/created. If you're Christian you must accept the creeds. The very first was the Nicene Creed which states that...

How do YOU define God? How do YOU define Jesus? Does everything about God have to be logical? Why didn't He think of another way of saving us instead of crucifying Jesus? Is Jesus' death of any value? Why? I don't understand about the language usage. I don't know what you mean. Don't words have...

We are to become like Christ. Right. We are to have the mind of Christ and think as He thought. Right. A SINNER will not be allowed into heaven. Right. Where does it say above that we do not sin anymore? Maybe it's YOU that doesn't catch the difference between A SINNER and A SIN. Is there a...

Jane, I asked you how you think Jesus' teachings were carried forward. If the above if your reply, and personal ideas creep in, then how can we know who to trust? Why trust the N.T. at all if we can't trust those whom Jesus taught and those that came directly after them? I mean, do we know more...

Yes! This is the one. Too late now :( But I have it for the morning... Have a few comments. 'Night.

Of course I haven't read the entire post yet but it's very well written and thought out...not to mention the work involved, but I know you like to write. You used the same image I use to explain the Trinity. But then you end by saying that it's ONE GOD , ONE PERSON. Is this what you meant...

Jane, What's interesting about your post is that the Witnesses have the only bible that is different from all others. This would mean that every other theologian is wrong and only the Witnesses have scholarly theologians. Russell claimed he knew Greek and translated your first bible and he...

Actually, I did some minor teaching on the Trinity to young kids to the age of 12. You still have to come to some understanding of it to teach it to others. (as you have done). My answer to your last question as to whether or not I could attribute an event or action to any one of them would...

The problem with your above statement is that The Son, The 2nd Person of the Trinity is NOT created. If He were created he would not be God and when reading the N.T. we do come away with the idea that Jesus is God, which is why Caiaphas tore his robe...Jesus declared Himself to be God. You hang...

Good catch. I'd take it one step further and say this: God Father is the creator in design and will. He is "the architect". But HOW did all get created? Through THE WORD OF GOD....see Genesis, God SPOKE everything into creation. The WORD OF GOD created everything. Jesus is The WORD OF GOD...

You will continue to claim we do not sin. I will continue to state that we do. If we no longer have the human nature...then what nature do we have? Are we all little gods? The spirit of God DWELLS within us, as you've said, we are not little gods. The N.T. states that we PARTAKE of God's...

Interesting Post GH. I think one can come to understand God in whatever manner he can. I know another poster that refuses to use the word Trinity and uses the word Godhead, as it seems you like to do. But you say there are 3 Gods in that Godhead....That can be taken to be pantheism, no? Can...

@Aunty Jane Hi Jane, I've been away a few days and now I don't see my older posts! I know you wrote. Not sure how to get at them. I know you had written to me... can you repost?? If not, I'm sorry.
