    Most important daily prayer!

    That’s the right question to ask. Yes, that concept is really biblical. What that concept really isn’t is binitarian or trinitarian. Jesus is the control for me and should be the control for Christianity. All scripture - including but not limited to the scripture contained in your post - must...

    Most important daily prayer!

    How important is daily prayer to your God to you? I would think that’s it’s vitally important to you. How important was daily prayer to his God to Jesus? It was vitally important to him. How important is daily prayer to my God, the God of Jesus, to me? It’s vitally important to me. Your God...

    Most important daily prayer!

    The verse pairs well with Romans 10:12, 1 Corinthians 12:13 and Galatians 3:28. It’s an indisputable fact that Jesus is a Jew. That’s sound advice. “Our Father” … “Amen.” His prayer teaches it. He teaches it. “Our Father” isn’t the Triune God. “Our Father” is his God and my God; our God.

    Most important daily prayer!

    “I ascend to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God.” - Jesus of Nazareth The Father. That’s the God we love. That’s the only God we love. There is no other God. The Father. That’s the God we pray to. That’s the only God we pray to. There is no other God to pray to. I’m speaking...

    Most important daily prayer!

    Jesus himself definitely believed it! The Lord God who is one Lord is his God. Jesus loved - and loves - his God with all his heart, with all his soul and with all his might. There is no other God besides his God for him to love. There is no other God besides his God and my God for he and I to...

    Most important daily prayer!

    The teacher of this prayer is a Jew. It is a model prayer to his God and the God of his followers. The prayer opens and closes with no mention of the Trinity. It is directed only to the Messiah’s God, not to the Triune God. The most important prayer, then, is unitarian in nature. I think...

    Most important daily prayer!

    Thanks. I’m not offended. Your practice simply doesn’t include reciting the Shema. The Shema isn’t a trinitarian creed. It was Jesus’ practice, it was his creed, and it was central to his faith in the one God. Mine too.

    He That Believeth Not = Mark 16;15-16, John 3;18-20

    Do you see any connection between these passages and the Athanasian Creed? Does your church use or consider the creed to be authoritative? The Athanasian Creed by R.C. Sproul Athanasian Creed

    What is truth?

    It was out of character for him. I never saw it coming; his reaction took me completely by surprise. He is one of the kindest, gentlest, loving souls I’ve ever met. He’s an outstanding person. A man dedicated to caring for his family and his neighbors. He started a ministry in the church to do...

    What is truth?

    Yes. Primarily for the purpose of tracking the post-biblical development of the doctrine of the Trinity, but also other issues from time to time as the crop up.

    What Is Your Favorite Sport?

    My favorite sport is baseball. I prefer college baseball (I’m a season ticket holder for University of Kentucky baseball) but my favorite MLB team is the Atlanta Braves and my favorite Independent Minor League team is the Lexington Legends.

    This really grabbed me today!

    I’ve reached the point in my walk where it’s no longer the punches I receive which truly harm me; it’s the punches which I seldom throw, or desire to, that do. That’s not natural to fallen man; it’s counterintuitive to us. We have a part to play but we simply cannot do it on our own. Only...

    This really grabbed me today!

    I think it can only happen by surrendering / conforming to Christ; become more and more like him every day. The old man is tough, hardened by the years of boxing. He doesn’t go down easily, and he keeps getting up off the canvas when knocked down. But down he must go, and down he must stay...
