    Lets Define "Works"

    Great topic and welcome to the forum. As I wrote in other threads, I think people confuse the 21st century scientific concept of work with the Biblical concept of Works. My church teaches that faith = belief + work. Real faith is demonstrated by action, in obedience to God's will and the gates...

    So, your idea of moderation is that there is only 1 out of 30,000 Christian denominations that is the true Church, and this true Church hold's itself equal to Christ in authority on Earth? If so, what would be an example of extreme?

    Biblical Mary

    Never heard of synonyms, huh? Most translations don't even say answer but reply or responded. John 20:28 New Living Translation 28 “My Lord and my God!” Thomas exclaimed. That is one interpretation. I say it was not a statement but an exclamation. I Cor 8:6 is an explicit teaching.

    Biblical Mary

    Word games. When my wine glass drops, I answer "oh crap." It doesn't make the wine glass feces. It is such a desperate attempt to compensate for the explicit teaching that goes against your doctrine. 'For us, there is one God, the Father.' 1 Cor 8:6. Not sure what this has to do with the...

    Who is Jesus' Father? HS or the Father?

    Complete disregard for the Law of Identity. Starting with your doctrine, you can impose it onto any text since no words bind. In your above example, you are limiting arbitrarily the title to 3. He is a brother, son, neighbor and friend. That makes 7. The list can go on and on. However, we use...

    Biblical Mary

    You are not able to respond. X is not Y. The LORD is not the same as lord. Retreating to a different language changes noting YWH is not the same as Yeshua. In the original language, the word is not kurios but Adonai. That is my signature. Profound inability to respond. You are not...

    James versus Paul? Works of the law vs. works of faith

    It is a great question and I don’t think there is a one-size-fits-all answer. Abraham had to walk to the Promised Land. The Rich Man had to give his treasure to the poor. The Thief On The Cross had to just sincerely ask to be saved. One thing they all had in common was humility. The minimum...

    Biblical Mary

    Because you did. Jesus is not God. One way we know this is only God is referred to as the LORD. While there are many lords in the Bible, no lord is called God. Other languages make the same point. Only by pretending YWH and Yeshua are synonyms is the false doctrine supported. The proof text is...

    James versus Paul? Works of the law vs. works of faith

    The action Abraham took to demonstrate his faith took place much earlier when he was left his land and went to the Promised Land. No one is justified by their work. IMO, we are confusing our 21st century engineering definition of work with the Biblical term ‘works.’ ‘Works’ serve your glory...

    I speak English. I am griot. You have no argument in any language. Changing the language does not change the argument. Pure diversion.

    James versus Paul? Works of the law vs. works of faith

    I couldn't help but notice you did not actually quote Scripture. I recall Abraham being known as the Father of Faith, not belief. Faith has action. Belief does not. Abraham acted in faith by going to the promised land. We are not made right by God by believing lip service style. Real faith has...

    Who is Jesus' Father? HS or the Father?

    In the book by Rubenstein When Jesus Became God, he explains it was just a smoke screen, an after-thought to the real passion of the 4th century, the man-is-god thesis. Still true today. Few trinitarians exert much time and energy defending how there are 2 Spirits, Father and HS. In another...

    James versus Paul? Works of the law vs. works of faith

    My favorite quote from John Wesley. My church defines faith = belief + action. Real faith has action. However, 'works' in the Bible refer to self-aggrandizement, working not for the glory of God. Scripture says no man can brag in being saved. So, I see harmony between Paul and James. Real...

    Who is Jesus' Father? HS or the Father?

    theefaith may not have realized how he destroyed his doctrine when invoking The God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, which is blessed for evermore, knoweth that I lie not. (2 Cor 11:31). NOTE: No mention of a 3rd being, a distinct person of HS because the Apostles were not trinitarians.

    Who is Jesus' Father? HS or the Father?

    Again, in modern parlance, Heb 1:8,9 reads you will sit forever on the throne of God. Not the same as who sits on it IS God. See the difference? I doubt it.

    Who is Jesus' Father? HS or the Father?

    What is given is AND. God and Father. This is not the same as God the Father. It is the same as God alone is the father alone.

    Who is Jesus' Father? HS or the Father?

    You mean the corrupted text, not found in the original manuscript, which simply read, "in my name?"

    Who is Jesus' Father? HS or the Father?

    NOTE: This text settles the fact that trinitarianism is bunk. It does not say God the father but God (in his unitarian nature) AND Father of JC. See the difference? I doubt it.

    Who is Jesus' Father? HS or the Father?

    It is so funny how they react to the obvious contradictions of their doctrine. Here, total denial. The angel answered, “The Holy Spirit will come on you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you. So the holy one to be born will be called the Son of God. Luke 1:35
