    Would you also say, then, that we must conclude that God is doing nothing?

    Unitarianism vs Trinitarianism

    It did hide it from you. The Hebrew word occurs 172 times. KJV showed it to you only 99 times. They concealed it from you 43 % of the time. I recommend using a tool that does. You aren’t thinking hebraically. That was the major point of the article I linked. You’re imposing your non-Hebraic...

    Unitarianism vs Trinitarianism

    Do you see how this Concordance hid it from you? If you check on the meaning of the Hebrew word used for “worship” in a Lexicon you should be able to see it, if you haven’t already. P.S. https://www.ancient-hebrew.org/definition/worship.htm

    Unitarianism vs Trinitarianism

    I recommend using a Concordance. However, you should be aware that translators often try to downplay it. They’re hiding it from the reader. I won’t speculate here on their motive(s).

    Unitarianism vs Trinitarianism

    It is a misled assumption. “Son of man” is a generic title which served a dual purpose. Everyone is “son of man” but only one person is the “son of man” Daniel was prophesying about - the Messiah whom the God of Jesus and Daniel promised to raise up and send. If Jesus wanted to say for a...

    Unitarianism vs Trinitarianism

    So many people are worshipped in scripture without any problem being associated with it that it should cause you to question your narrative. The stricture isn’t against worshipping people. The stricture in scripture is against worshipping any deity besides the one God, Yahweh.

    Unitarianism vs Trinitarianism

    The deity of Christ is his Father alone. Christ is a unitarian. What you’re attempting to do is make a case for the deity of Christ’s person. That’s what trinitarianism does. That’s what ties this in with the title of the thread: Unitarianism vs. Trinitarianism.

    Unitarianism vs Trinitarianism

    I read it. I’ve also read church history. This isn’t complicated. If there was an occurrence of the word which identified the one God as the Trinity we all would have quoted it. It’s not there. That’s why it took the church hundreds of years following the times of the apostles to arrive at the...

    Unitarianism vs Trinitarianism

    Thanks. That won’t help your case - if it did, church history wouldn’t be what it is - but it does support mine. Occurrences which identify God as the Trinity? 0.

    Unitarianism vs Trinitarianism

    I don’t find any of the arguments presented as being favorable to identifying the Trinity as the God of Israel. What I do find interesting is the way the argument is being delivered. Knowingly or unknowingly, the presentation demonstrates the issue (there is no statement in scripture identifying...

    1400 occurrences, and not one of them is speaking about the Trinity.

    Unitarianism vs Trinitarianism

    I don’t. Is this your answer to the question I asked?

    Unitarianism vs Trinitarianism

    Do you understand that you’re using the texts in an attempt to prove something which the NT writers used in order to prove something else?

    Unitarianism vs Trinitarianism

    Yes. I’ve been in their shoes. So, do you understand why comparing titles of Yahweh with titles of Jesus isn’t persuasive to those whose God is Yahweh alone?

    Unitarianism vs Trinitarianism

    There are many ways for a Jewish monotheist to support and defend Jewish monotheism. They didn’t tell me that in the trinitarian church I was raised in; nor did they tell me how to defend trinitarianism. What the church neglected, school education provided. One of the more unique and effective...

    Unitarianism vs Trinitarianism

    I understand that. When I was a trinitarian, I consistently found what I was told was in scripture. What I later found out, through studying church history and reading the early Church Fathers, is that those who told me what was in scripture had failed to properly train and equip me to know...
