Is there a way to change the translation of the Bible when I hover over it or is only one translation available? Not too fond of ye's and thou's, etc, of middle English.

I'm sorry but I did not see this thread until just now. What makes a Christian is exactly following the teachings of and model the grace-filled life of Jesus, Anointed by God. Not sure what you mean by any of this.

Is English your first language? Can you admit there are any figurative expressions in the Bible?

I have an odd situation at my new job. There is this bipolar guy who is allowed by management to mistreat people. He's been at the center of many strong arguments, some nearly getting physical. I've been told by coworkers that how I react to him is off-putting, not giving him the satisfaction...

To me, this is one of the most attractive aspect of Christianity, power and Spirit. It's coupled in numerous passages, all of which grab me. God has beautifully chosen to work through others. In this work, is not only power but the Spirit of Grace. A powerful scene in Les Miserables is when...

They did die but what you put in parentheses is not in the text. It is so typical of trinitarians to read what is not there. I honestly believe they do not even realize it. What you put in parentheses is what makes the text figurative. Isn't that what we are talking about here, literal versus...

What does, "You are my son. Today, I have become your father" mean if not adoption? You do not know the Good News of Jesus, Anointed by God. It saddens me how ignorant Christians are of their own faith, not grasping what Paul wrote about our inheritance. Thank You, Father, as You have made us...

Like many trinitarians, you lack discernment between literal and figurative speech. For instance, when God said Adam and Eve will die if they eat the forbidden fruit, they lived about ~9 more centuries. Certainly, this is not the normal meaning one conveys, like eating poison. And when Jesus...

Not according to the Bible. In the Bible, the Apostles could also forgive sins. Why are you not claiming the Apostles are also God?

You are seeing what is not there. Anyway, this thread is not about debating the point. Christians who do not consider Jesus God because they, like me, believe the overwhelming evidence in the Bible goes against the trinity claim, period. For instance the one time God spoke to the angels or other...

I am is NOT a claim of divinity. It is a common expression and trinitarians read so much into things because the trinity is not in the Bible. The desperation is palpable. Why isn't the formerly blind man God since he said I AM. Others: 9 This is the same man. Still Others: This cannot be him...

You are correct. I don't want to believe what is untrue and what the Bible clearly goes against. The Bible was written by anti-trinitarians. There is only one God, and that is Jesus' God. The Bible says this thousands of times! The trinity is not in the Bible. The Deity of Jesus is not in the...

So typical of trinitarians to pretend verses support the 4th century idolatry when they don't! John 8:24 does not proclaim Jesus is a deity. You are simply reading that into the text. I believe Jesus is the Messiah, who God chose to save the world. This is what it says in Acts 17:31. God, in...

Not one verse contains the idea of the trinity. Nowhere in the Bible does it say anything like trinitarians pretend it says, e.g., God's nature is trinitarian and if you do not believe this, you cannot be saved. Obeying God is where it is at. Jesus says this is where it is at. 4 “Hear, O...

When I go to Biblegateway.com, I came across this verse and wanted to get your take on it. Beloved, if God so loved us, we also ought to love one another. No one has ever seen God; if we love one another, God abides in us and his love is perfected in us. 1 John 4:11-12 (ESV) God abides in us...

The trinity is NOT in the Bible, not the word, not the idea. It is always funny to watch trinitarians aspire to the fallacy of Strawman, supposing that by asserting the man is God thesis, that 2 is 3.

Not sure who told you the Bible teaches this as that is totally not true. The Bible identifies God as singular over 5,000 times and never prophecies God incarnate. The Apostles stated over and over and over again that Jesus was not God but rather, God, in his unitarian nature, was his Father...

The Son of Man, over and over and over again this is what he said he was. He certainly never claimed to be God - although trinitarians are desperate to reach this conclusion. More important is who God said Jesus was, a man He selected to judge the whole world. 29 When they carried out...

I'm surprised how many here seem to confuse God's Sovereignty over the universe with an individual moral agent. What a total lack of discernment!

Not part of the story but the fulfillment of the story. I know who Jesus is and I know who he ain’t. Jesus ain’t God. Jesus prayed to God for strength. Kind of weird if God incarnate did that. The obvious proof that Jesus is not God is that Jesus died. The story continues because God, in his...
