I know it is unfortunate. I did not want to debate any doctrines in this thread; only the notion of explicit teaching v support. I used several examples. And the intention was just that, an example of doctrines that are debated. What do you think about Soul Sleep? I've heard it categorized as...

He was a man but I'm not sure he had to be perfect, just perfectly obedient. Not at all. Not at all. God delegated the power to forgive sins to Jesus, who in turn, delegated that power to the Apostles. Does not make them God.

Dualism. Jesus was a man, period. What type of man was he? Obedient to the one true God onto death, where upon he was given all authority. Whoever believes in him will be saved. That is, God saves us through his adopted Son. NOTE: How "today" God became his Father is after the resurrection in...

"Someone" gave you an order implies authority. Wow. That's not what it says throughout Scripture, e.g.: Exodus 20:12 Romans 13:1 Hebrews 13:17 1 Peter 2:13 2 Thessalonians 3:14 Titus 3:1 Luke 20:25 My guess is this person actually does have authority over you and that not acknowledging that...

It is demeaning and sounds resentful. I imagine there is a context missing. Does the person who said this have authority over you?

Sad reliance on Ad Homenim. Easier than refuting the argument ... You sound like a Separatist.

Hersh, I will pray for you.

With good reason is there a lot of anti-Muslim opinions in the last decades. Islam is Satanic. No ideology in the history of the world is as oppressive as Islam. Islam is a supremacist, expansionist, totalitarian ideology. It's dualistic nature is not well understood by outsiders. One...

No matter how many times you explain it, trinitarians read into what is not there. Beings are not words. John 1:1 is a figurative expression and it shows their desperation to have anything supersede explicit language. When cornered, they resort to dualism, like Jesus is the Anointed AND did the...

I have no idea why you are parsing trinitarians from Christians. Never heard the term Jehovahites before but it is my understanding that JW, unitarian Christians and Messianic Jews consider themselves Christian while rejecting trinitarianism. Is Jesus God? Absolutely not! And the Bible says...

Talked to a CLC guy yesterday. He put it this way. There are 3 levels of conviction that people confuse. Dogma Doctrine Preference Dogma, he said, is what you are willing to die over, e.g. a Christian would rather die than renounce Christ. Doctrine is a set of principles and beliefs, e.g., the...

5 fold ministry?

Still ignoring singular pronouns huh?!

Still intent on changing languages in a desperate attempt to support your doctrine while ignoring the 1,000's of singular pronouns and this post below (and the one that said I am groot and speak English). The LORD, Adonai is singular. See Exodus 6.3. God ≠ gods. See Ex 20:3 where Elohim is...

No. Elohim is not God but heavenly beings. Beyond that, there are thousands of times God is referred to using singular pronouns. Sad that you change languages to try to support your doctrine.

The proof that Jesus is not God is overwhelming. Below is what I call Christianity's end game. Notice here, even at the end, Jesus is not referred to as God and God is not even referred to as Father but God - in his unitarian nature, a part and superior to the Son. (I know some will respond with...

Agreed. I listen to Steve Cioccolanti & Discover Ministries and others but do not pretend to interpret prophecy myself.

Does not refute one thing I wrote. I speak English. I am Groot. In English, Hebrew and Greek, 1,000's of times God is referred to using the singular pronoun.

I always took John 3:5 to be literal. When we are first born, we are born of water. The mother's water breaks and only then, for the first time in the baby's life, the baby is out of the water. John 3:5 talks about being born, not baptism.

What do you mean almost fooled?
