@Eliyahu613 do you consider, as I do, that Isaiah 9:6-7 is a messianic prophecy?

Welcome to the forum. I noticed that You recommended starting with the Gospel of John. Do you agree with the Bishop‘s Bible rendering of John 1:1-5? (removed due to original link)

“… given the historic attack on the Jewishness of Jesus, beginning with early Church leaders severing the Jewish roots of the faith, continuing with classic Christian art that demonized the ancient Jewish leaders and transformed Jesus into a White European, moving to the Nazi effort to make...

Offered in support of your comment: ”… he became the source of eternal salvation for all who obey him,” (Hebrews 5:9, NABRE)

I believe in the doctrine of the wider hope: People are responsible for and will be judged by Messiah based on what they reasonably could have known and what they did. The doctrine is discussed in the linked 9 minute video. https://restitutio.org/2019/03/16/salvation-apart-from-christ/

Returning to your original question: You asked me if I believe - as 11 members of the board allegedly do - that you are doomed or question if you are saved. I declined to render a judgement on the question. I don’t know and it’s not been appointed to me to decide. Therefore, you shouldn’t add me...

I don’t think he was banned. If he wasn’t, he may return. I don’t know about you but I often write for a wider audience. I’m limited - by personal choice as a non-trinitarian Christian, and with the knowledge and approval of the CB staff - to the non-Christian forums. I revive threads if /...

That’s right. What that means to you, a trinitarian, is not what it means to a Jewish monotheist. Jesus is a Jewish monotheist. That‘s something that we should have in common. I’m persuaded that the meaning of his command should be understood in that context. You aren’t persuaded that it...

“[Jesus] was a first-century Jewish monotheist.” (N.T. Wright, Jesus and the Victory of God, p. 652) There’s nothing unusual or controversial about this @Rella. Trinitarian scholars and theologians have known it for 1700 years.

You’re thinking like a trinitarian. Jesus is thinking like a Jew. The same scripture you have that shows everyone that about Jesus. Q. Who and how many persons is his God? A. The Father. Only one person. Jewish monotheism is unitarian. That’s a low view of what God has promised to his...

I understand you well enough. I’m an ex-trinitarian. Will do, but, for the record, I think it would be wiser for you (and everyone) to leave it in the hands of Jesus, who is himself a Jewish monotheist and the appointed judge. My inheritance is the earth, not heaven.

I can do the same for you about me. And that is because I’m not a trinitarian - I’m a Jewish monotheist who trusts in the shed blood of Jesus and born again. So shall I add your name to my list?
